Hiya!

So, this is actually for a hodgepodge of things. The primary is for my dental work, which is in progress. I'm currently in the process of cleanings and will be moving forward from there. My goal, of course, is to be confident in my smile. It's been a long time coming, and honestly, I'm tired of being shamed and bullied about something that I'm already ashamed of and have been for years. This will help me pay for copays and needed dental work like implants, which I need.

The second purpose of this is school. I'm going back in September, but FAFSA and Pell grants only cover so much because it seems the cost of massage therapy school has gone up. It's $50 to enroll and $170 a month after for a total of roughly $5,000, not including the cost of getting to and from school for 8 months. Between child support and regular expenses, it's going to be tough. I, however, need to get my schooling done to get out from under the job I currently have that doesn't value me, make more money, and move upwards and forward. I both want and need to reach my goals.

The final purpose is to be able to eat.

I know we're all struggling in our own ways, but any and all help is appreciated.
