Hard to take!

Hey all! I love Horses! Love working with them. I applied for kind of a temp. position as a stable hand as these are larger Stallions. Beautiful horses! I was suppose to start next Saturday at 7:00 to be trained and I just get a call saying they're having problems and won't be needing my services! Damn! I just can't get a frikin' break! I was not going to get rich but, it's work. It's some extra cash! I could sell Jet's to private companies or dig a ditch and I cannot get a damn job anywhere! Does someone need a honest reliable dedicated person who can do anything? A personal assistant? someone to take care of there property, babies, animals, helicopters, anything? I'm having a moment and I'm not liking it! My soul is weary with prayer...first time I ever felt that way! Not doubting my Father in anyway as Faith is all I have besides my family....which I cannot support! Where's the help!? I play drums, I'm good! Heres a pic of my Ludwig kit. Any touring rockers want a drummer who's life ambition since 3 has been to play the drums for Jesus? I'm cheap!

I work all the time and am really tired of struggling. This gets to be hard when you guys keep raising the tax. It is not just the tax, it is everything. I have been working going on 30 years and have never seen the economy like this. Why can't you guys just keep printing the money we need? That is my solution to it .

I'm Tired

I'm losing faith in mankind because of all the false promises I have heard throughout this ordeal. I'm not looking for a handout just a hand up. My grandsons and I are homeless. I am a hoarder and it's a mental disease not a criminal act. I've been used as an example of a horrible criminal in my local area. I have been sentenced to 270 days house arrest but if I don't have a home to do it in, I will have to go to jail. I've already disappointed my grandsons enough. What would happen to them? One is 18 and the other is 15. What would happen to them? Their mother passed away a year ago July 4th from Aids. I was her caregiver for almost 4 years after her 1st stroke and her 4th stroke was massive enough to take her life. Devastation isn't even the proper world to lose someone so dear. If God had seen fit, I would have taken care of her for 100 years. But He knew how tired and weak she was from fighting.
I can pay between $450-$500 a month for a place for my grandsons to call home. The deposit always matches the rent and the deposits for the utilities are another burden. One of them is still in school and we had to list his address as "homeless". I know that is embarrassing to him as a teenager. They both help me gather scrap to get through another day but I want to reward them by giving them a place to lay safely in their bed at night and to be able to invite friends over. Me, I'm tired of the fight to be homeless everyday. My health is failing because I can't get to my Dr's appointments. I just want to sit down in my living room ahnd relax. I want to ease my mind to the point where I can sit there and fall asleep knowing all is well finally in our world. People don't know how much mental fatigue it takes to be homeless. I am so tired. I've been at this since June 10th and I am tired. I let my babies down. That's mental fatigue.

Baby me a little

I need a sugardaddy. Not the candy bar. Ok, that was just the first thing my fingers decided to type. It is not really true. I really justwant to relax for a minute and be taken care of for once. I believe in giving credit where credit is due. I deserve lots of credit right now. I am barely making ends meet. some of them are frayed very badly, but they are meeting, none-the-less. I miss having someone (over 4' tall) to come home to - to cook a nice dinner for and to inquire about my day . . . then cuddle up and sink into that cozy loved feeling. My financial circumstances, unfortunately, have led me to have very little time for myself and NO TIME for anyone/anything romantic. I miss that. Yes, I wish I had a stack of 100s dropped at my feet - right now, about $2000 would be fine. Yes, I wish I had the liberty of not HAVING to work. Moreover, I wish that I didn't have to subtract myself from my children so much.

patience, patience, patience

Hello out there, boy oh boy am I burnt out. I have been running around like a chicken with his head lopted off. I am hungry, lonely, and tired, what's a guy to do ? I have been shopping the past few days getting stuff for an apartment I don't have yet. It is just in limbo until this program called HPRP gets aproval to pay my security deposit,first months rent and turn on the utilities. This process takes roughly 30 days and I am growing impatient. I have waited 17 months, a few day shouldn't matter but I find myself just ready and everyday stuff seems to piss me off more than usual. Anyway I know I am whinning, but heh at least I can do it hear instead of bothering some stranger on the bus.LOL Well I have to go for now because I need to fill out an application for a job working for the federal government, wish me luck.

something has to give

you know honestly im just tired. i have no problem owning up to where i messed up or made the wrong choices that got me to this rutt im in right now. but ive been tryingto climbout for almost a year now and ill almost get there everything is lined upit cant get anything but better from here and BAM!!!!! right back to square one. I'm so sick of being broke stressed sick fighting etc. in no way will i give up but there are times where i feel like that is all i can do. an investor all i need is 2k my biz will be up and running. A co-signer for my student loan i can put up the 2k myself and get ahead. A measly 500 hundred extra a month i could finally tell him to leave and never come back. im either over qualified or no degree yet 1yr to go but he makes it hard to even do that. something has to give

Hi just needed somewhere to vent, I am a retired NYPD sergeant married for 22 years.  The past 4 years my wife has been battling Breast Cancer.  When first diagnosed we were glad they caught it early, but that  was a false hope.  It keeps coming back, this is now the third round of Chemo and this one is bad.  It spread to the bone and last scan showed some in the liver.  Our Doctor is great, but cancer is cancer, they don't know, they just keep trying different drugs.  Today she was crying on the couch, and I'm not good with crying, I don't think she can do another round if the next scan comes back with bad news.  This round was every week with a break every third week.  She is sick constipated and can't sleep needless to say she is depressed.  When I retired in 2006 I hoped she could find a part time job and so would I but now I am working full time again, and I'm tired too.  If it wasn't for my two girl 16 and 14 I think I would have just given up, money is tight but we do ok, had to borrow from my 401k twice but at-least I have a 401K.  I keep playing lotto but I think that thing is fixed (LOL).    Well I'm hoping that Bill gates reads this and pays off my mortgage but I doubt it...thanks for creating this site.

hi i am ann1212. i don't know how i found this web page, i am just glad i did. maybe putting this in writing will help me sleep tonight. i am trying to keep a good attitude. i feel like i am under attack. everything i try to do just seems to fall appart. there is just to much to write. i am feeling overwhelmed. it's not like i don't know that jesus is with me. i just feel so bad i can't feel his touch or hear his voice in this moment in time. maybe i will feel him again tomorrow, but right now my guts are in a knot and i am so tired. i know that if i just keep my eye on him i will never sink. i have overcome and accomplished so many things that i know i could not have done without him to love me no matter what. please say a prayer for me because i am so tired.

nothing for nothing

We have been out everyday walking and talking  and or progress is slow. you know I am starting to feel pretty down on all this . you never know though something or someone may still come threw , you just never know . We have had some very nice people that have donated a few bucks here and there . They were great, and I know its hard sometimes when you just don't have money. I think alot of people are in that situation these days. So the ones that have helped with what they could  thank you so much . Colter is definitely getting tired , I don't blame him hes seven he would much rather be playing at home .  I think it maybe time to take a few days break so he doesn't get burnt out. I want him to have fun not hate it.

Another day

Well its anpther day and it seems worse today than yesterday. But that is not unusual each day gets worse with no end in sight The person I stay with wants me out and I have no job no money and nowhere to go I live in altamonte Springs, Fla. But I don't want to be on the street but I am so close. I have to tell you I am very affraid. I have no family to help me. And I had a colosomy last year and am in pain a lot of the time. I realy want my surgury turned back around and all I need is 2800 dollars it might as well be a million. It gets harder to go on everyday. Most nites I go to sleep hoping I won't wake up. Soon I will have no choice but to just give up. I never thought I would say that but I'm.so tired. I must be being punished for something. I might as well finish the job.

I receive 1083.00 per month social security and have medicare but don't qualify for medicaid. My bills are around 850.00 per month. This does not leave me much for groceries, clothes, transportation costs, co-pays on dr. visits, hospitalations, prescriptions, hiring someone to do housework shopping, and other errands. I am in wheelchair and on oxygen 24 hrs a day. I can not do anything that requires exertion. Every month I struggle to get food from food banks, etc. I have a 5 cm goiter in my thyroid and have been hospitalized twice for choking while trying to eat. I have a hiatal hernia and acid reflux as well as herniations in both my cervical and thoracic spine. I need help financially every month and most agencies either say they can't help or will help on one time basis, which I have used with all agencies I know of. I cannot travel and make a lot of phone calls trying to get help and my long distnce service was discontinued because I couldn't afford to pay my phone bill. I miss a lot of appts. because I can't afford to pay someone to take me. I need financial help. I have no burial insurance. Please anyone that can help me, I would appreciate it. thank you anna booth

Why is the world hard for strong and good people?

I love my children dearly and I try to make good choices but I end up nowhere. My children's fathers turned out to be loosers even though my children were planned. I feel like I am tired of being in this world. If I am unable to take care of my children, why should I live? I tried being strong for 9 months but I just can't be anymore. I tried getting financial assistance from the state but in Utah you have to go to school or search for a job full time in order to qualify and I don't have a car and no one cares about me. There are no transportation systems where I live and daycares are clear across town. I tried to find online employment but I am unable to find any real work that makes good money without start up costs. I am at the end of my rope and I am tired in everyway. Does anyone have any ideas?
