Thanks so much. We are...
Thanks so much. We are still struggling. We have had some bright spots but getting a job for my wife seems like an impossible mission. She has applied all over this area and just nothing still. Interviews and call backs but no jobs. They seem to not want to hire her as a waitress because they want young hotties and she is now 40. Still hot but bars are picky it seems. We had to pay for some medical expenses, 3 of my daughters got sick in the same week. All had to go to the doctor. The little one, Paige, was very close to the hospital. She had to do to the doctor 3 days in a row and had RSV. All we really need one more push to get us to our tax refund. That will open up doors with a better car and more area to job hunt. It is tough getting a job when our area is so limited. The car we have leaks oil and is just not trustworthy for more than maybe 10 miles. Ok, just wanted to give an update. Right now we are behind $250 on rent, have to pay $120 to electric and $30 to water. Jan 1st is the bad day. We will need $500 more to go with my social security to pay rent. Christmas, well it will have to wait until we get our refund. I know the kids will understand but it still stinks. Love you all and thank you all so very much. We would be homeless right now if it was not for the great people that have helped us out.

I also have to say the numbers from the original post are not accurate. Basically it has been almost 2 months and the donations received have all went straight to our landlord. We are $400 behind right now and December 3rd is the due date for another rent. Tomorrow, my wife is going to hit every bar/restaurant and pretty much any place to try and get hired. She has already done this once but a follow up cannot hurt. We just have to get to late January in one piece. Our tax refund is normally a good amount and that will afford us a car that will widen my wife's job search. Until then, we just wish for a job for her. I have been trying to get accepted to some places online to do some tying/article writing. They are very slow responding and I have been turned down by the few that did respond. Times are tough, we love you all and as always if you can afford to loan us any amount of money we will sign a contract or whatever you need and pay you back late January when we get our tax refund. My address is 13410 Pecan Oak Drive, Houston, Tx 77065 if you want to help by sending something, anything. My email is ramseymichael@sbcglobal.net if you want to contact me for anything. Well wishers are always welcomed!
