We are a family of 5 and 7 two times a week(2 boys from first marrige) and this past year I was working in my tenth year at this company and the owner bails out and corperate took over and my 93,000 income was gone. My job now is 6 days a week 14 to 18 hours a day and I bring home 6 to 7 hundred dollars every 2 weeks sometimes way less. I had hoped that I would make alot more by now but that never happened.
With the change of income and trying to maintain normalcy with how we live so the children will not know the stress, coupled with a hot summer creating large utilty bills and getting behind in every bill possible we find ourselves 4 months behind in rent $4200.00 and no realitives to move our big family to we are very desperate and have until the 14th of December to move out unless by some miricale we get the money before then?
Of course we won't have a christmas this year, I really don't know where we will be?
I'm a man of pride and beleive me there is not much left in that pride department left!
Anyone that can help us in anyway will be in our prayers everyday!
