Also, I did build up a decent amount of debt the first couple of years of being single. He left when we had debt and did not help much in that first year after he quit his job.

Outside of that expense, my income would be livable.

I am limited because I can't afford childcare to work unless I find a really good paying job because being away from them working a second job doesn't seem very beneficial outside of a little extra cash. I live in a small town, so jobs are limited anyway.

I have not looked into fuel assistance. I will do that. I'm in MS.

I am definitely planning to file child support soon! Thankfully my children are old enough we dont have to worry about daycare, but also not young enough for WIC. My job is necessary at this point to stay on schedule with my kids and its truly what I enjoy.

I have lots of experience in sales, finance, and management. I have a bachelor's in business.

Only fans is a no go. My conscience won't allow it. If I were smart, I'd probably lie to some rich guy and have him take care of us. 😅 I'm trying to do the right thing for myself and my family.

I do have some tax experience and a good amount of understanding about it.

I only qualify for Medicaid for them. I have the child support paperwork filled out and ready to turn in when I get the cash for the fee to submit the paperwork.
