Funny how things work. When I made my first post here I had reached the point that I no longer cared. I had went the route of what I saw as lowering and exposing myself to he pitfalls of internet begging and nothing had come of it. Too many people are in my position and too few people out there with the proper means care enough to step up and help a stranger who posts on the web. The fear of being scammed by someone simply looking for a free ride is too great. It makes the legit cases who do need help a secondary concern of that fear.
Since I "gave up" I have found a decent job and my landlord has decided to step up and write off rent for last month until I can get back on my feet. We are still struggling to get our utilities paid and there is little in the way of food in this house. But there is at least hope that if we can survive the next few weeks we will be okay. We are not facing eviction at any rate.
Hopefully we will see a miracle that helps us with food and utilities. I find it kind of iffy to pray for money, so I hope God is paying attention.
Keep your chins up. Things work out, though maybe not in ways we hope for or as fast. But one way or another, they do work out.
