Reaching Out For Financial Help

Bills. Never ending suckers of money. No matter how much money we have coming in, more and more seems to be going out. In fact, we are in the horrible position right now where there is more going out than is coming in.

And it stinks.

Our heads are barely, and I mean barely, above water right now, and we are weighing our options carefully. Junior and I are looking into Debt Consolidation, in the hopes that we can have all our loans merged into one affordable monthly payment. It would be wonderful if we could also qualify for debt settlement , which is where the counselors negotiate what is owed, and sometimes they can cut interest rates, get rid of late fees, and even have our creditors settle for less than what we owe. Debt Negotiation can be tricky, so it is best left to the professionals.

I am looking forward to the day when if we want to do something, like go to the movies, I don't have to save up for weeks. My girls want so badly to see New Moon this weekend, but they are going to have to wait because I do not have the money right now. Maybe next week I can squeeze $30 out of Juniors check to take them, but I am not holding my breath.
