Well we go to court this coming week. and my abusive ex has moved 10 minutes away from me and the kids. I am honestly very stressed. Yes the electric is due to be cut off and salvation army only paid 25.00 on it and community action paid 100.00 towards it but I still owe 282.00 on it and if it isnt paid it will be cut off so I am very very worried right now. It was so high because I have been unable to pay it in 3 months. so they will give me no more time on it. so I am very very worried. The electric water and trash are all included in this. my heat is gas and that for the moment is caught up. I still havent paid rent either which is 650.00 so I honestly am very overwhelmed right now. I found a house in another area of va that is 1 hr away and in a country setting away from what i need to be away from but still close to town. My husband just moved 10 minutes away from me ... so I need to move. It is a mobile home 3 bedroom with a deck and an extra room for washer and dryer /laundry room .. the thing is it is only $400.00 a month ... problem is I want it but I would have to come up with it and the security deposit. I talked to the woman who owns it yesterday she is really nice and if somehow i can find a way I could get it .. but I have no idea how I can do it. Also I am going to get myself on the waiting list for section 8 and the wait is usually around 3-4 months here from what I have heard but when I get it she accepts it. The yard is huge lots of place for the kids to play and has a deck. It isnt a masion or anything .. a old trailer but with a little paint inside I can make it nice. Anyway I would love it but I do not see how I can ever get the money together to get it plus deposit for electric and rent of uhaul ect ... but it would be so ideal for us. Anyway I know we cant get it . the thing is I know I wont be able to find anything that nice for that price again. I want the kids to live somewhere away from there dad and not in a slummy area. here the kids would go to a great school and be surrounded by farmland. Ok Going to quit talking about that because lets face it I have no means of moving ........... Thank you again for writing. tell me more about you now !!!

Please get in contact with other agencies to help you. I don't know what you have out there, but I am sure that there are churches that will help pay your rent and to help you move. [1zhelp]

Believe that God will provide for you and you will be blessed by His provisions. He is the one that will bless you with what you need, but you need to ask Him to provide and He will do His will not yours. [Cross]
