hi there....remember me i am daisy....sorry it took so long for me to get back to you....the abusive husband i left three years ago....i gave him the house and a truck....my son is from my first marriage...so me and my second husband don't have any children together....though sometimes i get so emotional and all i could do is cry....the man who raised me beat my mom everyday and put us kids in the closet...he thought he was protecting us from seeing all that....but hearing the screams of my mother "woody please don't hit me no more!!" got to me worse than kind of beating a man can give me....my mother means so much to me....ofcourse i love my jesus more....my mom is right up there with him....for the way love her so much..
after all the kids grew up and were gone...mom just stopped taking care of woody....didn't cook didn't talk to him....didn't wash his clothes....and when he saw that....he went to a woman who would do all that....so woody left her....we were so happy....my mother is happily married now to a man that will never hit her....someone who really loves her and helps her with everything....i am proud of my mother...my mother is fine now and safe....but the emotional scars are there and it remains that i sometimes can't deal with them....like right now....i think about it and wish to god there was something i could have done back then....i was only 3 years old....what could i have done....he also beat us kids too....
you know 6 years ago....i seen woody at my brothers house....my brother has always been scared of him....i am not scared of him...i hated him for a while....i got in his face and told him how i felt about hitting my mom for all those 28 years....you know he denied everything....the coward he is he stood there before me and his new wife and denied everything....it is only a matter of time that she will find out the truth....he still cheats on his new wife....he cheated on my mother....just like when i was 16...he asked me to lay with him....i couldn't believe it....he used hunting....(something that i loved to do so much....as a way to try to get into my pants....i was 16 years old....when i was smaller i remember him playing some kind of games with me....i didn't start remembering them until i married chris and chris started reminding me of woody (my step dad)....i did tell my mom what was going on....then i stuck with the truth for a week....i told my mom yes mama he did this to me....she believed me....but i seen her cry everyday....and i am very close to my mother....i couldn't bare to see the pain in her eyes any longer....so i told her i lied....i told her i was trying to get even with woody for making me break up with my first boyfriend....i didn't lie ms jotmom...i just wanted everything to get back to normal....it did get back to normal...i was very careful to avoid woody on his off days...i had 4 horses growing up so i stayed in the woods most of the days....and i would come home way after bed time....i was the black sheep of the family..my sister and brothers wouldn't talk to me....because woodie told them lies about me....plus they (my own brothers and sister ) talked about my face and made fun of me....so yeah i have emotional problems....sometimes i can deal with them....sometimes i can't...
the man you see beside me in my profile picture....he is the best thing that has ever happened to me....he is a wonderful man...he is 10 years younger than me....he is 29 and i am 39....but still age is only numbers....he is slow to anger....patient...don't complain...he don't gripe....he is everything in my book....the perfect man....i have to go...it is getting late....if you can....i would like to take you up on that offer about the phone number....because....moral support is better than any amount of cash there is....thanks for caring....can you please send a private message to me with your phone number....lol i promise right here and now i will not be calling all hours of the night....or the day....only at reasonable times....daniel he is trying to help me...but him being a man and all....he can't relate to me....so thanks and god speed
daisy

Help! I need help on bills. I've been disabled for some time now (I had a stroke). I have a couple of bills that have gone into collections, and I was talking to a collector recently who mentioned these resources. If it's possible I would like to get these bills paid off. There are a couple that are $2000 and not being able to work to pay these off has become a problem. I don't make enough with disability to make payment arrangements in order to pay these off. I'm considered permanently disabled. I want to work, but because of the tremor I have in my left hand and very limited use of it, I'm not able.
Hi, Ashleystarr! I wanted to come by and let you know that I would like to talk with you! I am here for you, that no matter what you are faced with you don't have to face it alone! I will pray for you and with you! Father God loves you and will help you also! I will try to help you with anything you need help with! God Bless You! Much love, Pastor MadonnaButterfly~
Hi, How are you? I was just thinking of you and wondering how you are getting along. I see you have a pounding headache. Me too! I have had my battles with that quite a bit too. Hope you have a great night!
in response to Help!!...Your situation is difficult and you need to make an even more difficult decision. Your children are your number one priority and having a boozer in the house creates a chaotic and turbulent life style for them. This will ultimately lead them into the high risk for crime/poverty cycle, I know; I’m a child of an alcoholic and a recovering drug/alcohol abuser myself. If she’s helping with the bills and you need the money it’s understandable, however I think it would be best for her to go else where. You and you kids don’t need that crap that an alcoholic causes, nothing is worth that. It would be the same if you were with an abusive man, and one who runs out on his family is quite the douche I must say. Ditch the boozer/looser and find an alternative, just hang in there, something good will come.

I just found out that we are having cut backs at my job and I am one of the cut back. I will be here until May 16 then have to find something else. I am considering going back to school since I didn't go to college but we can't make it on my husbands wages. Can someone help me find where I can get financial assistance and college assitance?
in response to Help!!...You could apply for disability for your aunt. Then you can apply for taking care of her.
Have an intervention. Have her go to AA and if she don't she'll have to go, unless you plan on baby sitting her the whole time she's there.
in response to Help!!...First you need to go to the Department of Human Resources and apply for state aid and food stamps, in fact you can apply on line. Apply for W.I.C.
You can go to my homepage and I have listings there that should be of help.
You can visit some of these other fine peoples homepages and find more information on different subjects and there are some with about the same.
If you need help getting arod on the website let me know and I'll help. You don't mind if the are cloth diapers do you?

Hello, I am sorry to hear that your house burned down. Try the Lions club. I remember when I was a kid it and my parents house burned down the lions club helped alot.
Wishing you well.
in response to autumnb...Hello
I am sorry your house burnt down. Did you have insurance? Salvation Army might be able to help with replacing furniture and other items.
I would have to find your local Salvation Army to see if it can help you. Did you check with the other links I gave you??

Starshine
Hello I'm new here and couldn't help noticing the same thing as you with people asking for money. Words can't describe how true your words were about thinking out of the box, and that there's more than one way to solve your problems. I wish you the best and hope your doing well.
in response to shotcaller69...You aren't going to want to hear this but the truth of the matter is that there are few grant that are for personal uses.You have to get a non profit to help you .and that takes a long time both to write it up and to get it. Aidpage has a sister site that has two programs that help you if you still choose to try first one is foundations; www.grantgate.com and the other you can tell from the title: www.thefederalmoneyretriever.com. Both are free , it helps guide you and tells you what you need to know.
While you are working on your project visit my homepage . I have several pages of information that will be of help to you. then I would advise to visit some of the other Aidmates here on Aidpage and they will do their bst to help you also.
in response to Schmidty...yes i need to know where i can go for a grant for being a single mom...i am really down and out at this time and the bills just keep piling up. I do work however my previous bills are going to shut me down in the present please someone guide me!!
I'm not sure if you're one person or a foundation of some kind. I'm on your page now; however, it's not clear who I'm speaking with. The name: Nobody's Someone is remarkable. Whoever thought of this name is creative and talented in my opinion. Nobody's Someone has an emotional catch to it! Caused me to take a pause!
