About mommyof2angels

Hi... My name is Raci, I am a 26 year old single mother of 2 precious children whom I love with all my heart... I live in Florida.

I was laid off about 6 months ago and since then things have gone downhill. I have been working here and there but not enough to pay all the bills. I just lost my car this morning, it was reposessed and I am so lost.

I have a possible job opportunity but now with no car and soon no where to live the new job possiblity seems less important. I live in a small town and there is no bus transportation. I also have no family to help me. My ex husband was abusive and lives in another state and this plus the fact that he moves around is making it impossible to get child support ordered. He was physically abusive so I can't get help from him.

I want to go back to school, I have been looking into it. I'm afraid until I stabalize this situation going back to school is impossible.

Does anyone know of any programs in Florida to help single mothers get back on their feet? I haven't ever been this bad off. I have always been able to provide for my children, at this point I feel like I have failed them as a mother, I just don't know what to do.

If anyone has any suggestions I would be so greatful!

UPDATE:

Well things aren't looking up in certain areas but I may have a place to live. I had to give my 30 day notice since there is no way I will have the rent for next month, my landlord is understanding but seeing as how she lives on a fixed income she is unable to give me an extension. A friend of mine has offered to let us move in with her as room mates. Now I just need to secure this job (crossed fingers) and figure out how to get transportation! Atleast I have new hope. I just know something will work out for us... and thank you all that have lent support, kind words have helped me already, you are all such special people!
