Looks like in 2 days I will be homeless. The place I thought I had lined up is out. I guess my friend husband owes back lot rent on the camp site so I won't be moving in there unless someone comes up with some money for the back rent. I can't go home to Michgian. My mom told me no. I have no other friends here. Ex will not help me find something. He told me tonight. That I should have thought of this before now. It's not my fault the guy owes this money for back rent. I have one place I can try tomorrow. But don't think I will get in there. I'm so stressed right now. I just wished I had more friends in Elizabeth City NC to help me out. So everyone keep me and my little guy in your prayers. I hope I can get something by Friday this week.![]()

I read in one of your older journals that you had till the end of August to move out. I assume things have changed reading your new post. I hope you find the help you need. I am so very sorry you are in this situation.
www.resourcehouse.com Here is a website....you put in your zip code and it will come up with whatever is around you that might be of some help to you and your son.
You are in my thoughts and prayers... I am sure you have already, but just in case... have you thought about contacting social servies.
God, I'm so sorry, that totally sucks! Shame on your mom for letting you down! Are your kids with you? This may not be a great option but a woman's shelter while you are looking could be something to think about. Is your divorce final? He should be providing funds in some way, what an ass. Remember, when we are at our lowest in life, the only place to go is up. I also believe that Karma is a bitch and one day, Karma will hit him with all it's got. Hugs and prayers.
I have been to social services. They can't help me. They did give me a small list of places for low income. But all the waiting list are 6 months or longer. I have tried Hope Line. They can't help me either. I'm still looking. I just don't know what to do or where to go now. I have tried calling a friend who live's 5 hours away to see if I can go there. But she has not answer. I have no luck at all.
I was in the same situation as you during thanksgiving time 2004. Going thru a divorce b/c ex husband cheating and losing my apartment because he was helping w/ the rent b/c he won't work. So my four kids and I got evicted. The shelters all had waiting list , if we had time to wait we won't be homeless. I had to move into a hotel took almost a whole paycheck for the week stay and just had money for gas in my car after that . And I got food from the food bank. Then we ending up moving w/ my parents(who lived 41/2 hrs away) 2 months later stay there 81/2 til I was back on my feet. But things do get better after a while. You just have to get thru tough time first
