I really need to find a way to get out of the financial black hole we are in. Between our business being slow, me having to take a substantial cut in pay due to a job change that I had to make (my old one was being phazed out due to govt budget cuts) and the horrific cost of living I am at wits end!!! Thank you everyone for thinking of me and my family.

We are facing desperate financial hardship in our home. Our business is floundering and I am just not able to make ends meet for both the house and business on my fulltime wage. Please send a little prayer for a bit of relief. I just want to be able to get back on our feet. I know we are still better off than a lot of folks out there but I don't want to lose everything we have. We both work hard fulltime to try to make this work and I am so frustrated. Thanks to everyone for thinking of me - I truly do appreciate all your kind thoughts.

I need prayer that we can find a way to work throught this desperate economy. Our business is not doing good and I am doing all I can to hold together. I feel so alone and hopeless right now. I am trying to stay strong to my inner faith but it is so hard when everyday brings another set of bills/problems to add to the steadily growing pile. Thanks to all for thinking of me.
