Flooded Furnace Help!
Hey guys, Nighty here
On wednsday night we got a HUGE rain storm. Normally a rain storm wouldn't be a big deal, but the rain fell so hard and so fast that our street wasn't able to keep up with it. With lack of ditches and only two drains on the very end of each side of the street, our street flooded big time. There was 3+ feet of water in the street, trashcans and all sorts of other things were floating on by. Our basement got overwhelmed and flooded due to a crack in the foundation that was not disclosed to us when we bought the house. The crack allowed 5+ feet of water to get into our basement. Ruining everything down there including our furnace.
To repair the furnace it cost us 610dollars that we had to put on a credit card. We just don't have that money really...we had to do it but we dont really have the funds to pay it off for a very long time.
I thought long and hard about this, as it was suggested by a watcher on my furaffinity page. I don't normally ask for donations or anything of that sort. Normally I can take on commissions and we can take on extra hours at work or something. But we've exhausted all those options and because of a few weeks of crazy happenings and stuff I can't take on more commissions until I catch up. I'm not crazy behind or anything, just not in a situation where i'm comfortable taking on more commissions.
SO If you are willing to donate anything, a dollar, five dollars, or more I'd greatly appreciate it. Even just passing the word around or anything. I hate asking, and I never thought we'd be in a situation where I had to ask, but this bill put us underwater and I feel if we can't get some help we'll drown. I put the goal at 500 because my mom gave us 50dollars to help and I put my birthday money (60) in to also help. Even if we only get 20bucks or 1 dollar it's still going to help. I dont expect to get all 500. BUt if I do it'll be even more appreciated.
I just need to get this paid off, my baby boy's bday is coming up in a few months too...and I fear not only will I not be able to afford paying this cc bill off but then if we are busy putting any penny we have into paying that bill...how will I get his bday gifts how will we do anything?
