Our car insurance is now expired. Our car payment is past due, and while we got this latest payment deferred, the next one (which cannot be deferred) is due in 22 days.
My cell phone, which number is on all my job applications and resumes I've sent out, is now out of service.
I MUST go out each day and look for work, but if I am (God forbid) in an accident or get stopped for some reason, I will be fined heavily and could be arrested.
I have the opportunity to play music with a group that can play weddings and so on, but I have no instruments to play (I play the guitar and the harmonica, which is the more critical of the two, since there is paid work to be had if I have harmonicas to play).
We don't have any family members that would be willing or able to help. Our mortgage payment is taken care of, so there's no worry of losing our home, but we have literally nothing for bills or gas for the car.
Sorry I'm ranting, but if I didn't have young children to provide for, I wouldn't even be worried about these things because I could always get by alone. I'm desperate for their sakes.
