Trying to Restart After Homelessnes

Donation protected
My name is Carrie and this is Milo. He is not only my emotional support but my heart and my world. We have had a VER BAD 1 1/2 year! Milo stuck with me through being homeless the entire month of Nov 2021, through my time in a very toxic work environment, threats of eviction, eviction, insurance cancellation, utility shutoff in 90+ degree weather, etc., etc. Being out of work since May and picking up delivery shifts and temp jobs, I have had to choose utilities/rent so we wouldn't be homeless again or car payment which I needed to get to jobs. I chose shelter and air for Milo and me. Today my car was REPOSESSED! I lost my job because I couldn't deliver without a car and I am now trying to go to interviews by city bus since I can't afford to use Uber. Due to my unemployment and choice of a home or a car I became 4 months past due on my car. After 3 1/2 years of making payments the bank chose to take it. I found out when I was leaving home to work my delivery job. I lost that job that day. I DON'T ASK FOR HELP. I NEVER HAVE. I have worked and paid taxes for 46 years and now that I need help, no one will help me. I applied for utility/ rent assistance 4 1/2 months ago and am still waiting for a response. I have tried everything from church charities, GoodwiIl, 211, government assistance and everything in between. I don't want to be homeless again, especially with Milo! He deserves better! If it was just me, that's one thing but I will Not put Milo in a shelter. My rent is due in 8 days and I found out today that Our Florida is " out of money" so once again, No help. This is very humiliating for me because I have always taken care of myself. I definitely have lost all pride and self worth at this point. I am reaching out for help because I am out of options. PLEASE, any help is appreciated! I am so scared right now of losing Milo and our home! THANK YOU!
