I was a very sheltered naive girl. Never got into trouble. All I wanted was to get married and start a family. Drive a mini van and pass out juice boxes… that kind of thing. I got pregnant by my very first boyfriend and everything changed. We got married when I was 17. Divorced a year later. He won custody of our baby boy for no reason other than the fact that he had a better lawyer. I hardly see my son now.
The I found someone new. We got married and had a daughter. I was so happy. Now I am pregnant a third time, but I’m not so happy.. My husband started calling off work all the time and we didn’t have enough money to pay the bills. (I work part time as well, but I only make minimum wage - not enough to pay bills)
We had a big argument about money and then finally I thought things were going to work out and my husband started going back to work again.
A week later he got fired. One week of thinking it was ok and now this. And it wasn’t even related to all the “calling off of work” …it was something really little and stupid. Now we have $300 left for the month and no way to pay our utilities, rent, or buy food.
We’ve applied for government aid.. but that that takes weeks.
Just when I thought things were fixed…
Why, God, why?
