Hi I am Jessica and new here. I need some support. I just quit my job 3 weeks ago to be a SAHM. My husband lost his job on Aug. 14 and was out of work for 3 months. Since he was let go he was denied unemployment. I supported us on my small salary along with help from family. We have 2 girls one 7 and one almost 1 year old. My husband finally got a job but work was temporary until he passed a state licensing exam in a field he know nothing about. He failed the test 2X and was let go from this job. Now we are both without jobs and no money. We lost our new car during the first 3 months he was unemployed, it was repossessed.
Our credit cards were charged off and we are being taken to court for judgements. Our one vehicle is a small truck and the brakes are failing, the front tires are bald and it failed inspection. It will cost about $1,000 to get everything fixed. Things are a mess and to top it off I have some major health problems and I need to be able to go to the doctor but now we dont have insurance and I am worried about running out of my meds. My girls have insurance through the state which takes a load off my mind. Any advice would really be appreciated. Sorry to complain as my first message. Oh, by the way my husband will be taking the exam a third time (which cost us $70) on the 12th and if he passes (he missed by 2 points the first time he took it and then by 1 point the second time he took it) then the company will probably hire him back. The reason that I quit my job was because it would have cost more for me to work. Daycare costs, one vehicle would have made it impossible, no public transportation and my work hours.
