So I've definitely hit a rock bottom.. haven't even made it outta my first year over the hill and desperately need help! My sil told me after my house fire in '09 to humble myself..today I'm telling myself that because I really need too, this is hard.
Short story, workplace accident and injury April 8, WCB til end of July but only officially cut me off Aug 19. One small cheque end of Aug from work paying me out vacay and a bit of sick. Fast forward.. just passed mid Oct first ei cheque, pretty sure I was on the verge of being homeless. Got paid from ei sick benefits..caught up bills and rent and was able to buy some groceries. Yay.
Less stress for less then a week...
Then Last week my truck decided it was at the end of its life. Transmission. (No longer repairable, so don't inquire..this would be x3 fixing that transmission, scrap yard is it's last drive..still has 2 gears) I've always loved this truck but I know it's broken in more ways then one and tired.
Now I'm basically broke and stranded and possibly should be back to work in December?? Depends on Dr.. but have 6 more weeks to figure it out.
I've been losing ALOT sleep over this decision but today i decided to set up a donation page .... Horrible ..It feels that way. Humiliating.. absolutely! Necessary .. well I literally see no way to get back to life and continue Dr apps in steinbach and at Pan-am & specialists, and be ready to get back to work without a reliable vehicle and one that's hwy safe in winter.
I just don't know what $$ limit to set, I've bought vehicles saftied under $4000 in past..all I see now is not saftied in that price range. So I've raised the number a bit from what I remember and Just a note I have a small savings to add to this but not all that's needed to get a different vehicle.
Christmas this year is already likely not happening and that's ok!
Any and every little bit helps and so appreciative of shares and donations alike! ❤️
