Where do i begin?? grew up in a well-to-do family, only to have my younger brother basically rob and finally ruin our family business. both parents die in 2007 from cancer..leaving a ton of bills unpaid. i finally get the nerve to leave my live-in boyfriend of 18 yrs, who got my oldest son started on the path of drugs when he was 13 with crack cocaine. i lose most of what was willed to me in my parents estates, and the one house that i had left was stripped of all the copper wiring and plumbing by my ex and his new crack head wife. so now im left with a shell of a house that no one wants to buy in todays declining housing market. 3 months ago i wrecked my car that was paid for..no collision ins to cover the loss. been without a car ever since..making it difficult to get my two youngest kids to school and myself to work. my boss has cut my hours because he says i am now unreliable in getting to work as scheduled. my 20 yr old addicted son takes advantage of me..constantly asking for money to buy his drugs. he is lazy and wont work, and his constant running around to hustle up money for his stuff has cost his girlfriend her job. now i have two dead beats living off me. i am continuously having to watch their two yr old daughter so they can run...because i worry about what situations they may be putting her in. i have a boyfriend, who really isnt much help..he is on disability and DOES NOT know how to manage his money..which always gets gone within the first week to ten days after he gets his check. i never dreamed my life would end up like this..especially when i think of where i came from. kinda makes me wish i had been the one getting high..cause most of it has been on my money and what i should have gained from my parents estates. i have no family to help..my only brother is in prison. my boyfriends mother has been helping get me to and from work and my kids to and from school, but it is becoming a burden, as she really needs to be at home with her husband, who is dying of cancer. she told me that she would help me get a car, because my credit is bad...and we spent two weeks looking for something decent and reliable within my price range. i finally find a good car..and then she backs out, saying that she cant give me the money cause she is gonna need it to pay funeral expenses soon. nor is she willing to co-sign for a loan to get the car. im finally at a breaking point with all of it. just not sure how much more i can handle at this point. | |
