I feel for you, darling. I can recall the days when I first moved out on my own with my girlfriend. I can remember not having enough money to pay our rent, getting things like our cable and our phone shut off. I've lived without heat before too. Things will get better, they always do. It just takes some time. I think you're far from an unfit parent or any of those other things you listed.
On a lighter note, I went to ROH in Chicago last night. I was the only chick in my section (not to mention the only chick besides my friend I came with) who cheered for Chris Hero. All the fatheaded losers around me were chanting "Fuck you Hero". I wanted to punch all of them and tell them they didn't know what good was.

hahaa, i love being one of the only girls in anything wrestling-based (a show, on message boards, etc). and ROH fans are very vocal. Hero kicks ass, but he's an ass lmao... i went to a show and i was the only one cheering for Aries (who was heel at the time)

i used to not be able to make rent... at least i can do that now. and my internet hasn't been shut off, but that's USELESS with no electricity :/

He is an ass, and he plays it so well. He did the double stomp off the top rope and right before he jumped he mocked the crowd and their chants by yelling out "This is awesome!!!".

i love it. he does well with the fan interaction part, whether heel or face.

I know this won't make you feel any better but this kind of shit happens to a lot of people. I once got an electric bill for over $600. Turned out they'd put me on some "once every 6 months" schedule and I didn't know it. Well, they wanted it all right then or they'd shut off the service. I didn't have that kind of money, so they agreed to set me up on some payment plan, but I had to go there in person everyy month and pay it like I was some kind of a criminal.

Since then, it's happened to me a few more times when I mail the bill a day or two late, and they send a disconnect notice, and I have to go pay it in person at a sleazy liquor store. I don't know what it is about electric companies that they have to stick it to people like that.

I've got you in my thoughts, and I hope things work out for you.

they won't even LET me on a payment plan, until i pay off this insane amount of money first :(

*Hugs* Oh sweetie, I've been there, not too long ago either and I've had all the doors close too when I swallowed my pride and asked for help. Here's to hoping things get better quick and you're not a bad mama, though I to have had those doubts.

taiga_star June 25 2007, 13:52:52 UTC

hey new friend, friend of a friend, etc etc. today my parents and i are going to figure something out. they're willing to dip into their retirment accounts to help (if i can't get a loan), and i hate the thought of that. i'm hovering damn close to 30, and they already have one daughter sucking them dry... they don't need two.

OH WILL THE GUILT EVER STOP!

Hello *grins.*

I know, my sister is currently living with my parents and her two kids and has been for well over a year. It makes me very reluctant to ask them for anything. When I turned 30 and everybody was knocking on my door I told my Dad that I always thought I'd have my shit together when I was in my 30s. They had their shit together then. My Dad shook his head and informed me that they were struggling just as bad then too. I had to give them kudos for pulling it off well because I never suspected. Not really.

Have you tried calling various churches? Even if places are only willing to donate $50 bucks, it all adds up in the end.
