hi my name is miriam and i'm the mother of three daughters and i make 6.55 an hour and my rent is 600.00 a month and i work as many hours as i can on as little sleep as my body can take to support me and my girls. last month i got a very large gas bill which has taken two months to pay and i am no longer receiveing child support since the girls dad has lost his job in oct., i do receive food stamps which i am very thankful for. i feel pushed into a corner everyday lately my kids need shoes and school supplies. i feel more like a failure every day looking at them. my two yougest ask for .50 to buy a slushy at school and i cant do that. everything i make has to be paid on a bill or rent. the gas bill was very high because my windows are not insulated well so i put blankets up to them to try to hold in the heat. i didnt realise how stressed i was til i just started writing this. even if we are not picked thank you i got to cry and say what i have carried for a very long time. please know that you and the ladies are being a real blessing in someone's life.
