starting over AGAIN!

I am having to start all over again, I am still wanting to be out of debt before I am thirty. That way I am not carrying my twenty year old mistakes into my thirties. to do that though is going to be tough. One of my mistakes is renting furniture, I know that I am paying a lot for rented furniture over paying cash but we could not afford all at once to buy beds for the children and a washer and dryer so I am stuck with. I did however make the decision to get rid of my rented bed and I am sharing a bed with my daughter now ( she is five ) I also share a room with both my kids so it was okay. I am currently having to pay more for the rent since my mom lost her job. I am also having to pay out of pocket about 150 a month for my sons treatment for his eyes since insurance does not cover autism. needles to say we are living below poverty level and trying to raise two special needs kids and get out of debt at the same time. i will continue to post as things come up for better or worse.

Keep your hopes up, Jennifer. It can only get better. Things happen for a reason, just always try to look at the brighter side of things. Also, part of it is compromise. Don’t give up!

Though you have financial problems, don’t let it discourage you in getting off from that below poverty level. In spite of everything that happened to you, you're still lucky and blessed because you have your family at your side. Keep on loving and protecting your family because they are the most immeasurable and priceless treasure in this world.

There are worse things in life than having depts, or even going bankrupt. Don't let that occupy your head. There's still a lot more to live up for you, Jennifer, like your kids. Use that as your motivation. Still, being positive would be definitely your key here. Good luck!

How are you now, Jennifer? You haven’t updated us for a while. Same saying applies to everything that happens to us; “this too shall pass”. I hope you were able to get out of this circumstance. I wish you good luck! Update us when you have time. =)
