Karen and Castle's Big Move
Last year marked a huge personal upheaval for me. My ex-husband and I separated and eventually divorced a few months later. I didn't want to leave Las Vegas at that time because I committed to serving as Race Chair for a local 5K (Race for the Cure). I also had a few other things I wanted to see through.
Now, a year later, I feel like leaving Vegas is the best option for me. I'm going with my gut on this. However, financially I have been struggling to get by even with the remote job I began in May, which has recently ended. There are no savings left to fall back on and using credit is not an option.
I am $2400 away from paying off my car. If I can manage to pay that off and have a bit extra to help me move I am confident that I can get through this. I just want to be sure that I don't lose my car at this point. I will also need 2 new rear tires which will be $222 installed before I can move anywhere.
I will need to keep up with Castle's medications which he must take every day and run about $75/month. He will be on those for the remainder of his years and will have serious repercussions if he doesn't take them (seizures).
I have always tried to help others and have raised funds for numerous charities. Now though, it is me and my pup that need some help. I know a lot of people out there are in the same boat. I have made a lot of mistakes but I cannot undo them, all I can do is decide to move forward as best as I can.
I am humbled to be asking for help and hope that I can make those who can help me proud of doing so. I vow to pay your kindness forward.
With love, Karen and Castle
