OneGrassRoot suggested I post here and I am going to suck up my last bit of pride actually hit "post" after typing this.
This year has been hell for me financially and I have no where left to turn. My hours were cut at work, my car needs to fixed, I am behind on my bills after paying off the huge heating bill from last winter. My utilities are behind, my rent is going to be behind soon. I just keep juggling my paychecks to try and keep everything on.
My son turns 21 on Saturday and we are told it might be a year or two before (or if) we can finally get his SSDI approved. So I am supporting us both while he takes some classes at the community college in hopes that at some point he will be able to get and keep a job. I can't even afford a birthday present for him.
DU is like an online family and I am hoping someone out there can help me to get out of this hole I am in while I try to find another job or at least some Elance work to make up for the loss in wages. I worked out a budget that I can get by on if I could just get out of this hole. I want to start my own business eventually( I sew) but materials cost money.
I made a fundraiser on Gofundme.com.

I am embarrassed and horrified by all this, but the stress and worry really has me at my wits end. I am hoping I didn't ramble to much. My phone broke last night and I was up all night in fear of over sleeping and not being up for work. Hopefully I can get it fixed today since it is the phone I use for work.
So I am going to put this all out there and hope for the best.
Sincerely,
Marrah
