Help with bills and cost of living
Donation protected
I was convinced to make this through the encouragement of an incredibly close friend of mine..
For those that know me, I am proud and stubborn. If I am asking for help, it's because we really need it. I -hate- asking for anything of people, especially help.
I am currently in the process of transitioning jobs. Due to forces far beyond my control, the time between jobs is really long. I won't be getting a paycheck for more than a month. The funds that are due out to me from the previous job are in limbo due to a restructuring that is also far beyond my control.
In that time frame, I have bills that are due. My electric is far past due, and despite setting up multiple payment plans that always seem to never be documented, we once again have a notice that the electricity will be cut as of Monday the 12th. This bill is almost $700, that I had been paying almost $600 monthly on. (Long story short on this was I was overpaying on my oil, thinking it was the electric, and didn't know until the bill was over $1k, and then we had multiple months after the baby was born that it was almost $700. I got it down to where it is, but they never seem to realize I have a payment arrangement. The prior landlords had work done on the oil burner, and unfortunately my money went towards that, as they never paid the repair and replacement fees)
I have kept up with my car payment, but with no income I will be unable to pay it this coming month. This is also in my Dad's name, and I cannot miss a payment, as it will effect his credit.
I have sold a large amount of my gaming collection to attempt to accumulate funds. I have tried to open art commissions to garner addition income. I've gotten to the point where I try to not eat so that there is food for my kids, and formula for the baby. I was breastfeeding him, but a closed-minded former boss was uncomfortable with me doing so, and it made it so my supply was gone by the time it was addressed, forcing me to go to formula. I also only took 30 days off after I had him, despite needing that time mentally and physically, so that I could continue to provide for my kids.
I wouldn't ask for help if it was just me. I'm asking for them.
Any funds given to this are solely for paying the bills, both past due and current, as well as feeding and clothing the kids.
This really means the world to me, as the kids are the most important thing in my life.
Again, I hate asking for help. I don't want to, I am thoroughly embarrassed and hate myself for doing so. But for my children, I would do anything.
I want to do art or SOMETHING for people that donate.
I have a backlog of thank you art, but I hate getting things for free.
