I am sat here wondering when it all went wrong and when it all fell apart...
Everything was roses, then the husband starting using ice, which made him gamble and he gambled everything...
I sold our house and moved me and kids away and still little good has happened..
My brother in law stole my wedding ring set and emptied out our garage after I sold the house and he was 'helping me move' he went to court and nothing.. Husband continued to use ice and gamble until Novemeber last year..
The rest of the in laws think I'm a nut case because I don't respect the girls grandmother who got so drunk she passed out while looking after them, left them shut in a car on a warm morning..
Moving house one of my dogs of 9yrs kept escaping attacked cats and her brother, eventually she killed the family cat and we lost a cat and a dog within a day of each other leaving me with one beloved pet left..
Then the washing machine stopped working so my savings is spent on a new one..
Than today my three year old has opened our front gate and let my pet out of the yard and hasn't been seen since, how it was left opened for long enough without their babysitter noticing is beyond me..
I work in a job where even fellow staff feel they have the right to have a go at you if they don't like your decisions along with the general public.. I looking for other jobs!
I've had my share for the last 6mths! I need some good news/positive times! Because 2016, I have officially had enough!
Life!
Life!

That sounds awful! You have had a horrible time. Hold your head high, this too shall pass xx
Hi....
You are a strong woman....trust me on this...
I have been where you are....I am now a single mum of three amazing teenage girls....
I learned this.....
Live your way for yourself and your kids....stay away from them (the family who exploit you use you steal from you and then attack and degrade you if you dare say no)
You are just fine...and you will be just fine. Find a region which is affordable....buy a house...build a life....just make sure you aren't in easy reach of them....and you will make it out just fine.
Rather than searching for a job.....search for a place to build a life...the job will happen......look at housing prices accessibility to hospitals schools and public transport and select from there....set yourself up that no matter how low your income is you can still maintain a standard of living....
Because I think you know as well as I do that once shit truly hits the fan you will be largely on your own anyway.....family wont actually 'help' when you need it....so you need to make sure you can survive any storm.....because ladies like us hun we know we are in this life alone.
Regional areas arent as isolated as people think...and depending on where are quite affordable and a great place to raise kids.
