My husband and I were just making it with his old job.  Money was tight, but we were making it.  Then he got let go out of nowhere.  We have an 8 month old baby to support.  It seems that everything has been crashing down on us, but I praise Jesus for what we do have.  I've gone through all the necessary measures to get food stamps, WIC, and insurance.  Our vehicle that is needed no ifs-ands-or-buts for my husband to get to his new job (that pays 30% less than he was making before- and it's not on the busline) just had a brake line snap.  Even though we have auto repair assistance here in Kenosha it only covers a percentage and I have no idea where we're going to find it.  I'm the organizer, stay-at-home mom of our family.  I've applied for a million different jobs to no avail.  My husband got a grant to go back to school so he's going to be doing full-time work and full-time school in hopes of getting us out of this situation so I will be managing the home and taking care of our son.  We've already sold anything of value- even put my wedding ring on Craigslist to try to make ends meet, but no one was biting.  I've learned how to make my own laundry soap, dishwasher powder, fabric softener to cut down costs (http://hilbillyhousewife.com  the site is amazing, highly recommend it).  If we need clothes, it's Goodwill which is fine by me.  Please do not judge us, but we made a lot of poor financial decisions when we first got together and were just about to file bankruptcy when my husband lost his job.  We have a judgement on us that will be taking money out of my hubby's check and WE DON'T HAVE IT.  I don't know how I'm going to get our son diapers.  It's me doing all this legwork (and y'all know how it can get- phone call after phone call, appt. after appt., hunting down tons of paperwork) and I am SO THANKFUL for what our country does have set up, but right now it feels like we're stuck.  God is good and he will provide- I know it, but I have no idea where to get diapers and things like that for this interim.
