Same problem not getting fixed...now even MORE scared.
Well, things have not gotten any better. We STILL don't have jobs, and now we don't even have savings left. No money at all, and what little we'll be getting from his tax return is going straight toward paying for our storage room for another few months so we can keep job searching.
On a slight bright side, I am waiting to hear back from two job interviews I had...
Anyway, I am really getting scared now. The only things we have now are shelter (living with my dad) and food for us with food stamps. Those are great and we thank everything and everyone for them constantly...but I still have no way to pay for rats for the snakes and am nearly out again. :(
We also have the problem that we can't get out for interviews and job searches very easily without bus fare. My dad lends us a bit now and then, and drives us when he can, but things are tight for him as well right now. SIGH.
Ok, that's enough of that from me for now. I'm really trying to keep a positive outlook, though it's hard, and all help...even kind words...works wonders and is completely appreciated.
Re: Same problem not getting fixed...now even MORE scared.
Good luck!
I hope things will work out for you. Maybe some of us can get together rats to donate or something.
Keep trying, there's got to be at least ONE place hiring.
Re: Same problem not getting fixed...now even MORE scared.
I think the reason it takes people so long to respond to something like this, if at all, is because its so hard to read this. None of us want to think about one of the people we talk to on here going through that kind of hard time. During the time I was a lurker and had not registered yet, I saw a few people buy amazing new animals and then just months later had to sell them.
Its horrible to think how you must feel. It took me a few years to get back on my feet after a bad car accident which left me homeless because I couldnt work for quite some time. I can only imagine what your feeling but if its anything like what I was feeling, I know its not good..
All I can say is to keep your head up. Keep trying. Try not to get too down. I know its very hard to block those thoughts at times but its very unhealthy and will get you no where in the end.
I truly do wish you luck and hope that you will be ok. I still spend most nights wondering the very same things. Just hang in there. These will make you smile :P :D ;)

I traded most of my collection so I have quite a few frozen rats and large mice I'd be happy to send over. I just don't know how to get them over there w/o them thawing. If anyone has ideas, go ahead and PM me or email me at mivonne@nova.edu.
Re: Same problem not getting fixed...now even MORE scared.
You are in my prayers :)
Even if you aren't religious, I will still pray for you. Just need to have a little faith :) It will work out.
Re: Same problem not getting fixed...now even MORE scared.
Thank you for the great encouragement. :D It helps me to think positive when I know I have friends rooting for me. :bow:
Muze - Thank you VERY much! I sent you a PM. :)
Foschi - Thanks...those pics are great! I adore dragons.
For now, I'm just turning in as many applications as I can to any place I can reach and hoping for good results from that interview on Monday.
Thanks again for the support! Every little thing helps right now.

Get rid of the snakes? They're a 'luxury'. It sounds like you can't afford to have that right now.
Re: Same problem not getting fixed...now even MORE scared.
You are in my thoughts and my prayers. I wish I could do more for you.
Re: Same problem not getting fixed...now even MORE scared.
You are in my thoughts and prayers as well. If you lived any closer I'd get some rats to you. Have you thought about letting someone care for your snakes for you while you search for a job? Someone you trust of course, but someone who would be willing to take on your snakes and feed and care for them until you can afford them again?
Keep searching for a job. There is one out there, I just know it. :D

I suggested this in the last thread she posted about her situation.
Get rid of anything that is costing you money that you don't NEED. That means any luxuries at all!
