About Feeling Desperate

Feeling Desperate started this conversation
Sep 16, 2010
I am a 35 year old mother to four children.  My husband works hard for a living (60-70 hours per week) but we just can't make ends meet.  I am currently looking for full-time work to try to improve our situation but I am having very little luck in this economy.  We were forced to file a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy about a year and a half ago in order to save our house.  The wage garnishment on my husband's paycheck is over $450 a week and takes up most of his check.  We are left with very little to live on or pay bills with.  Right now, as I type this, my bank account is $600 negative...mainly due to bank fees I have incurred since going negative a few days ago.  Hubby gets paid today, but his check will only cover the negative balance in the account and there will be nothing left to pay this week's bills or buy groceries.  The school tuition for my kids is due to be automatically deducted on Monday and I will not have enough money in my account.  I have shut off notices on my Gas, Electric, Water, and Car Insurance.  I will never have enough money to keep all of these things turned on.  Please, if anyone can find it in their heart to donate even a small amount....anything at all would help us out.  I have tried to find help with all of the government and charitable organizations I can find but in most cases, we don't qualify because my husband works hard and makes "too much money".  Our annual income is usually about $50,000, but that is for a family of six and in today's economy...it just isn't cutting it.  We are hardworking people, willing to work, and willing to help others out whenever we can.  We just need a little help to stay afloat until I can find full-time work.  I really need to raise a minimum of $1000...and fast.  The utilities are getting shut off the middle of next week.  If you can help at all, you can send donations through paypal to this email address....  kellymatthews1975@hotmail.com.  I promise you this is not a scam...we are real people, in genuine need of a little help and kindness.  Thank you and God Bless...
