...........and it's not pretty. Without a second job I'm already exhausted with my 1 job, the kids, and school. Now I'm adding a second job, I honestly don't know when I'll sleep. I'm afraid I'm going to end up hving to quit school because it'll be too much. In addition to that is the whole home situation that can be worked on but it won't be an easy transition. But what really hit home today was the fact that Christmas is right around the corner and I won't have any money to get my kids presents. In years past it's always been tight, but I've managed to give them a decent Christmas. It doesn't look like that will happen this year. I didn't realize just how much I counted on that child support every month until I started looking at my expenses.
God bless my pdoc. I had an outstanding bill with her and when I went to pick up dd 16 from her office, she forgave the bill and gave me a slew of samples (dd had told her about the recent turn of events). She doesn't want me to run out of meds and be in a position where I can't afford to get a refill which is why she gave me all those samples. She knows me well and knows that my money will go to my kids before I spend it on myself.
I still haven't heard from the grocery store where I applied, but dd said it takes about 1 - 2 weeks, so I'm hoping maybe the beginning of next week I'll hear

Traci,
Don't know why that sh.. fairy can't just leave us alone!?
why are men so so...ugh i can't even think of the word right now.
I'm sorry he's doing this to you right now...what an aweful time of the year to be so self centered.
God could not be everywhere, so
That stupid jerk!!!!!!!!
I feel bad for you and your girls, having to go through this because of a loser who doesn't want to work and pay child support.
What a wonderful thing for your pdoc to do...giving you samples and wave your bill.
Maybe if you do have to stop school it will only be for a semester and then hopefully the dead beat will have gotten another job and CS can pick back up, hopefully. I will have you in my prayers.
Love & Hugs,
Tina

Hang in there love. Yes, he's a jerk. But you CAN do this. If I can help, let me know.
He will NOT come out on top.
NOT!

Hi Traci. I was going to suggest same thing as Marci - or they have a children's society here where I am at that helps with things sometimes, also almost any church has that program here too, only just food.
I am thinking about you and your family and sending you a ton of P&PT's.
Many hugs, Kelli
