Prayer Request can things get worse? - Page 5

Rasputin · 07-13-2009, 07:08 PM

I lost my home, I lost my job & my van broke down. I live in Salina Ks. I pay a hell of a lot in child support so I couldn't afford rent when they cut my hours. I told my work I was going to take a leave of absence so I could stay with my mom in Greensburg till September. I changed my mind during the week and decided to stay and live at the homeless shelter untill I can get back on my feet. They hired somebody to replace me and now I am out of a job. I went to Greensburg for the weekend and I was heading back to Salina & my van broke down. Transmission leaking everywhere. My mom came to pick me up and the van is in the shop. Just haven a hell of a time.

Sorry I have been gone so long.

Sorry to hear that KC, you definitely need to get in front of the judge ASAP to get your support reduced.

Rasputin · 07-13-2009, 10:37 PM

Jenson71 · 07-13-2009, 10:38 PM

that is a good question. I am going to have to hit the pavement and find something I'll probably hate what ever I get but I will get by.

JOhn · 07-13-2009, 10:41 PM

Dude it can ALWAYS get worse...Trust me I know from first hand experience. I've been exactly were you are, actually a lot lower, so yea I know.

But it WILL get better, just hang in there and make the most of your opportunities.

Well, good luck. There is some dignity that is admirable in going through hard times. That's probably of no use or consolation to you, though, but it's true.

Reminds me of a joke ...

Three nuns, a Jew, an Irishman, and a professional basketball player with a frog in his pocket walk into a bar ...

...

... well, I can't remember the rest of it, but that's a great start to a joke, I think.

I thought it was a Gerbil, not frog?

Oh wait, wrong pocket.

No, it was a frog for sure, Mr. JOhn. I wish I could recall the rest of the joke. It was pretty good. Anyway, here's another one ...

Mr. Raised On Rats and a Giant Sphincter walked into a bar. Mr. Raised On Rats ordered a beer and the bartender said, "Before I serve you, who's the big, ugly asshole?" Taken slightly aback, Mr. Raised On Rats said, "That's not an asshole. That's a Giant Sphincter!" to which the bartender replied, "Hey you! I was talking to the Sphincter."

get on the phone to the judge and tell them about your problems and the payments.

KcFanInGA · 07-14-2009, 03:40 AM

Keep your head up man. It may not seem like things can get worse, but believe it, they can. But hang in there. Eventually you will end up in better shape than when this shitstorm started, it's just hard to see it from where you are now. But it almost always works like that for me, and most people I know.

**Rausch** · 07-14-2009, 03:51 AM

It's not where you are but where you're going to be...

When the chips are down, that's when we show what we're made of. It's not easy to do, by try to think of this as your chance to really shine, to pick yourself up, dust yourself off and head into the next stage of your life. Don't let the past be a barrier to the future. Things can get better.

Go with the dry dog food instead of the moist.
