Money Woes

I can't believe I was short $50.00 on the house payment. The payment needs to be paid today or the mortgage company is going to force the sale. This economy really sucks and I see a lot of my neighbors putting for sale signs in their front lawns. This is not what I thought my "dream" house was going to be. It's falling apart and needs repairs. The conditions are still good, but not up to my standard I would like them to be.

I borrowed the money off of mom AGAIN, so I can make the payment. I'm tired of living like this. I wish there was an easier way. I think it was only two years ago, I could pay my bills and have some left to spare. Shortly after moving into the house, my boyfriend lost his job. Unemployment was paying more than the jobs he was being offered. We need him to be getting paid at least 16.00 a hour, but most of the job that were in his field of work were paying 7.00. I MADE him get a job at a warehouse. It was 12.00 an hour, but this too was short lived due the fact they cut his hours to 14 hours a week.

Now I'm paying over 4000 a month in bills on a 2200 a month job. I am not able to get benefits from the government; because I MAKE too much money. I was also told there were 2 able body adults in the house. Technically, I'm disabled. I have Fibromyaglia, but that is a whole different blog.

Don't get me wrong I'm not asking for handouts. I just want to keep what I have.
