Hello, I am a 23 year old wife, mother & student! My father recently died and since then our financial stability has gone down the drain. We moved in with my mother to help her and us save money and manager hers. With the expenses we came across were astonomical, we drained our savings and now we can't catch up.
For the past month my husband was at work nearly 24/7! We finally caught up with our bills, but now we are strugling to pay for our gas! My husband has found a co-worker who is willing to pick up him, but I still have to go pick him up after work. Me being a student, I have to leave my class early so that I can start dinner and then leave to pick him up because we both have to wake up early to be on track the whole day. It is becoming emotionally and phisically draining.
We are still living with my mother, and my 3 year old daughter will start school this fall. We don't want another emergency to happen. If we could get maybe an extra $100 for gas that way we can use our extra money to put in our savings to save up as an emergency fund. If you'd like to help us with putting money in our emergency fun that would be great as well.
We'd also like some prayers sent to my darling sister, it's been 2 years since she got married and her husband is having mental problems, she says she can't take any more and is also causing financial unstability.
