I got fired from my (crappy) job, and I have NOOOO money, I don't want to have to explain to my 6 & 4 year old daughters that they wern't "Naughty" or that Santa doesn't "like" them because I haven't the means to buy them any presents, shoot, I can't even afford gas in my car! It sucks, and I'm tired of crying about it. I am embarassed to even be posting this, 'cause usually I'm the donator, or the 'helper' not the 'helpee' you know? But if ANYONE knows of any churches or anything that might help last minute, PLEASE let me know, I've never had to go to them for help, so I don't know how it works, and I didn't realize that it's pretty much too late, that you would have had to sign up like back in October to get help (back when I HAD a good job & money), but my girls are good girls, and they deserve a good Christmas...If ANYONE knows any places, PLEASE email me and let me know! Thanks, and Merry Christmas =(

this computer is in the living room of the house that i live in with a friend, me and my daughters live in a spare bedroom, so it's an added luxury that i have, it's not mine! and i've tried all the churches and salvation army and goodfellows and stuff, they've already passed out all their stuff, but i just maybe thought if anyone worked for one of those places, that i could maybe get squeezed in, or get some 'leftovers' because i didn't think i'd be in this predicement back when people were supposed to sign up, i thought my check friday would be the one that I'd shop with, 'cause money's tight in the first place, and i live check to check, lol, like most people these days, I had NO idea that I'd be axed...and although I've filed for unemployment, AND taxes will be soon, none of that will get here before the 25th...=(

Hi honey, I feel you pain too. My "Big Christmas Party" at work only earned me $5! Can you believe that $hit?! Anyways, If your mom is still being a witch you and the girls are more than welcome to spend the Holidays with me & Nik!
Linda was so sad when I told her everything that happened to you in the last few weeks, so she's picking up some stuff. If you don't spend Christmas Eve here you can pick up the girls persents this weekend. Oh and I think I'm going to take all the kids on Saturday, so let me know if that works for you!!
<3 u!!

You can go to any near by churches and ask for help and explain them exactly what you have said here, and I am sorry to say this but the Internet that you are on is not an necessity so go ahead and get rid of these things until you have a better job that can allow you to afford these things. But if u go salvation army or anything similar they should help you.

Try United Way, the Salvation Army, and Toys for Tots. Also call the local newspaper and ask them.

I think you should consider getting out of Michigan.
