Hi, My name is Julie and I normally wouldn't do this but I am in need of assistance. Monetary wise.

I know you say why should I help her and this is another sob story. It is, my sob story. I have a 16 year old son who is the greatest teenager in my book. He doesn't ask for much and he is great about finding the clothes he likes at second hand stores. Most kids won't do that.

At one time I thought I was happily married until my ex-husband came home and told me he wanted a divorce. My ex was military and gone quite a bit, while I was working full time and also raising his kids. Between the two of us we had 3 kids with the ages of 13,12 and 11.
Mine was the youngest. We both had different views on how we raised kids, I was more strict since I mostly raised my son on my own. He on the other had his parents mostly raise his, they pretty much wanted for nothing.

My ex was fooling around while he was out of town, and here I was sitting at home waiting for him to come home. It was pretty devasting to find all of that out in one day.

My son and I have since moved on with our lives and are trying to make the best of it. I work full time, don't drink or do drugs. I don't go out, I'm home with him at night, although him being a teenager he probably wishes I'd go out......: )
It is really getting hard though. You see, I have a bleeding heart, I can't seem to say no to anyone in need of help. The beginning of this year I had loaned a good protion of my tax money to my nephew (whom I thought was going through a divorce), to get his life in check.
I didn't realize that he was just giving it to his wife. While he had promised to pay, he hasen't and now he won't even return my calls, and I thought we were close. He won't even return his mothers calls.
Against my better thinking, one of my co-workers also asked to borrow money. I didn't know what to say at first, he caught me off guard, I was actually flabbergasted. I loaned it to him and he has paid me back but the time it took him to pay me back, it was to late for me. I have bills stacking up, can't keep up with the utilities.
You might ask why don't I seek assistance from the government, I'm trying but it goes against the grain for me. I don't feel the system is right. The ones that really need the help don't get it and the ones that don't need help and know how to work the system do get it.

I've recieved an eviction notice from my landlord and have to be out by the 31'st of this month. We have no where to go, and no money to go with. I'm not asking for someone to buy me a house. I'm just asking for you to find it in your hearts to help my son and I. I know there are kind hearted people out there. I'm not here to get
rich or scam anyone. You can email me at anytime and I will answer any questions you may have. My email is: [email protected]. I am also putting my mothers address for those who want to send a check or money order, since I don't know where we will be. Or you can click on the paypal button. Please help keep me and my son off the streets. Thank you for your time. God Bless You!
