i am so tired of trying to figure out how to feed my children.
i am so tired of looking at my monthly finances and knowing that there is no way to buy groceries but to charge them on a credit card, thus digging myself deeper.
i am so tired of struggling to pay for all the mistakes i've made over the years with my finances.
most of all, i am so tired of struggling to figure it out alone. i try to communicate with my husband and it just does.not.work.

When you mentioned husband that caught my attention. I know what you are going through as my hubby does not read or write so every thing is left for me to figure out, when I do ask him, he says do it like you want. Things are really tight for all of us now adays. We live on a fixed income and although we do get some food stamps they are not enough to buy groceries for a whole month, even if we eat bean every day. Groceries and gas is getting higher day by day. Iam so glad my kids are grown and I don't have that responsibiliy anymore of trying to figure out how to feed them, but whenthey was kids both me and my ex hubby had good jobs so it was not a problem. I feel sorry for people now who have a large family and trying to feed and clothe them now adays.

I am sorry for your situation. Have you tried food banks or food stamps?
I know how you feel. I am unable to find a job (not even a good job, just anything!), my husband lost his job over a month a go. A contract that was suppose to pay our bills didn't com eup. So we put the electric, cable/phone, his car payment, car insurance and now the rent on a credit card. We are almost out of credit and neither of us have a job.
I finally got a lead on a job, so I am going to check that out tomorrow. The hours are longer than what I want and it doesn't fit in our schedule, but I have to do something. I know com e9/1 I will be borrowing money from my folks to pay the rent
My husband last year was looking into going into the Marine Corps and found a really good job and decided to not go. Today he went down to the recruiter station and all of his paper work is in order, so he may be leaving in 3 weeks.

I know how you feel. I myself have a responsibility and here am i, trying to figure out as well how long will i be able to hold. With the super-increasing price of all commodities, it makes me fear about the tomorrow of our life.

That is the problem with Liberalism. Socialism works much better.
