it's me , Ashlee. yes the one w/ the 5 kids. it has & is still literally taking EVERYTHING in me to post this right here. i have been talking to my sister about doing something like this for awhile but my pride always gets in the way. anybody who knows me knows i don't ask for help unless i ABSOLUTELY have to & i usually make a way so that i never have to. i am very independent & have been that way since i had my first child at 17. meaning, i have been working for the past 13 years to make a way for me & my babies. now i am making this GoFundMe because recently, me & my kids have moved from Augusta, GA to Fairfax, SC which is a little over an hour away. everyone keeps asking why -- it was supposed to be a new, fresh start for me & my kids. i have been wanting to get out of Augusta for awhile now, so i took the opportunity as soon as it was presented to me. when i first got the opportunity i had most of my ducks in a row. things were looking like they would work out, things would get done. & then my vehicle broke down on me 3 days before we were supposed to leave. so now we're an hour away with nothing. no family, no friends, no car, i can't get a job. the closest store and/or job is a 45 minute walk. & see, that's not even the problem. i will walk an hour to & from work if i have to (iykyk). the problem is there are no daycares around for me to get my baby to so i can even try to find a job. the closest one is 30 minutes away, that's driving distance. it is almost damn near impossible for me to be able to do anything at all out here with no transportation. i have about $480 saved up as of right now to go towards another car but that will surely start to decrease the longer i have to sit down & figure everything out on my own. the longer i have to go without a job. my village is little to none & the few i do have standing behind me already have enough on their plate. they have already helped me as much as they can. i don't have anyone else to run to. i am not here to look for any handouts, i don't mind working for whatever it is i get. i am just truly in need of some help & don't know any other way to get it. i have nothing to lose at this point besides my pride & dignity after sharing this post but im willing to even give that away if it means helping me & my kids.
