scared about the future

I have been married for 10 years, been with hubby since 10th grade in school ( about 15 years all together) I filed for divorce, the day before Thanksgiving. It was something that we both agreed on. He told me that he would stay here until Christmas or so. He moved out Thanksgiving weekend. Now I have no income, no nothing. I am waiting for child support to start, who knows how long that will take. I have 3 kids ages,  7,  4,  3. I applied for assistance through the state, which I will be able to get food stamps and state medical, which the kids are already covered. I am worried about Christmas. There is no way I can afford anything for my kids. My kids have been through SO much, and now I want them to have a nice Christmas, but I dont know how I am going to do that. I tried ti call a different agencies but the cut off for those programs was the end of September. I would applicate any thoughts or ideas that anyone has that can help me out.

Need help in Michigan

I need help!! I am a single mother of 3, my divorce should be final in May. I would like to make some new friends. I feel like I am all alone , and I am scared. It would be nice to be able to talk to some-one. I have decided to go back to school full-time, to become a Medical Biller. I didnt have a back up plan, when ex hubby left. It would be very nice to be able to go out and talk to some new friends about different things that are going on. Of course I am a good listener. I am living in Saginaw. Sorry to sound so pethectic and lonely,  but I am lonley and scared. Have a good day

Hello, 

  

Up until a year ago, I have lived in Michigan my entire life. Not as far north as you, but close. I am from Detroit area. Okay, well, I was not THAT close, but I now live in Tennessee.  

  

Is there life after divorce? Hmmm.....for a long time, I didn't think there was. (Turns out that my now X-husband was just saying that to try and scare me!) And it worked for a long time. 9 years to be exact. And finally, after I said enough was enough! I divorced his sorry butt! Well, what does one do after a divorce? Well, it is different for many people. For me, it meant going back to school to become a Nurse! Even if others didn't agree. My mother freaked out! "You need to get a job working in a factory, and take care of those 2 kids! You had your whole life to go to school, and you didn't, now it is too late! Go get a factory job and support those kids the right way!" It wasn't easy following my heart and sticking to my guns (or in my case my bible), but the thing I said was "Try, or fail trying!"  What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger! That is my 2 second advice on divorce. Here is my 3 second advice on friendship..... 

  

Try this web site. I don't know if I am allowed to post it, so forgive me, but you said you want to make friends, well, here is a good place to start. It is called christiansinglesdating.com  

Now, now, before you say anything, yes, it is a dating site, and yes, it is where I met my 2nd husband, and what was the cause for me to move to Tennessee (it is actually a really touching, romantic, and unbelievable story if you like to hear it) but it is not only a dating site, but also, there are a lot of woman which I have become pen pals through. Woman who have done, and gone through what I have. Where I thought "I must be nuts! This can't be normal!!!" When actually it was. So, if you would like to talk, or what else, that would be great. I hope what I said makes a small difference. Take care, and good luck on the medical billing. Two words on that. cha-ching!!! Good luck on the medical billing. I hope you do great! 

Thank You for re-plying to my message. I have tried some dating web-site's, but there not all that good. Maybe I will go to the christian web site. Who knows!! I am not doing so good in school, I am thinking about quitting school. Not going good at all, I am very stressed about it. Well maybe we can talk some time through e-mail? diane1433@yahoo.com is mine. Do you have Yahoo IM? my also is diane1433, I hope to hear from you soon. Thanks

Hi there! I am a single mom in Alpena. I have never been married, but I do know how hard it is to raise a child alone. I do have a very supportive dad and daycare provider. I also went to school and plan to graduate in May 2006 as a Medical Information Specialist. Don't say you're pathetic sounding. We all have our own sad stories. I am lonely and sometimes scared, too. If you want to talk, please e-mail me. My address is in my profile. Take care of yourself!

Hi there!! I tried to look up your e-mail address on your profile, but I couldnt find it. Maybe we can chat sometime on Yahoo? My e-mail address is diane1433@yahoo.com. I also have Yahoo IM, my screen name in diane1433 for IM. I hope to hear from you soon, Thanks

You are not pathetic.  Divorce its not usually a happy thing or something joyful.  Let yourself feel sad so you can get past it for you and your kids.  I am a stay home mother of 2 and a step mother of 4 and a grandmother of 2 and I am only 30 years old.  Life has a way of catching up to us.  I too live in Saginaw Michigan.  I actually live in Thomas Township.  I am an ear to bend and a good friend.  Being a mother is the toughest job on the planet.  Give yourself permission to feel exhausted.  Your job is tough.  If you need an ear to bend I have two of them!
Thank you for re-plying to my message. Do you have e-mail address? mine is diane1433@yahoo.com, just in case we can talk that way. I hope to hear from you soon
