Most of you don't know me very well, some of you know me a little and some don't know me at all.
Here is some background: We have had a tough two years here........two years ago my husband and I nearly divorced- had papers filed and everything at that time my ex husband decided it was the "right time" to swoop in and get some revenge on me by taking my oldest son (13 at the time) from me. We went to court and I gave up temporary custody of my son we have been battling ever since. My husband and I are back together and happier than we have ever been we fought hard for our family and our marriage and eachother and it worked! Now we are fighting to get my oldest son back. We have been hit by hard financial times though we nearly lost our home so we filed chapter 13 bankruptcy and are also suing our mortgage company (long story). Hubby has always been a self employed carpenter/contractor and a licensed builder he gave up his builders license this year though as we didn't have the money to renew it (cost went up) work has been scarce to say the least. We are a family of 7 living in a cramped 3 bedroom house ugh.
Ok now for the things may finally be looking up a little: Hubby finally got a call back on monday about a full time job he has been waiting to hear on and he got it!!!!!!!! This means a regular paycheck YAY (by the way if you know of anyone in MI looking for a car/truck etc either to buy or lease Please let me know so I can forward hubbys info to them for the dealership in Waterford MI he is working at starting next tuesday
). Our wonderful dear neighbor has been looking for a new investment and the house across the street was foreclosed on, it is a 5 bedroom huge house on 4.3 ac. and he has offered to buy it, pay to have the roof fixed (a minor job according to hubby) and let us do either lease to own or land contract on it! Yay!!!!!! And in court yesterday we at least didn't lose having oldest DS every other week, it isn't ideal but at least we didn't lose any time with him we didn't gain anybut we didn't lose any!
Maybe things are finally starting to look up. Of course we still have to get everyone's school supplies for the year (school starts tuesday) but I can't stress about that right now. It is a start so I am counting blessings at the moment! I just needed to get some of it out. Thanks
