My story..

Ok, well, this blog began as a place to put my graphics and such to showcase them, and give them away to those who were into digital scrap booking and such. That all has recently changed. I will still offer previews of graphics I do, but the majority of this blog will be the journey of trying to get my family a home. So, I thought the best way to start this would be to offer my story to each and everyone who would like to follow my adventure.

First a little about me...
I am a 28 year old mother of three. I have been married twice and thankfully, my second marriage has been such a blessing. However, my ex husband feels the need to ruin this marriage as he did ours. He, however is another issue in his own right. He was both mentally and verbally abusive. He has threatened to kill me and we have had to fight with child protection services to make sure our kids are safe around him.

Prior to this marriage, I faced a lot of issues within my family that are best left unsaid as they are easier for me to deal with that way. However, they have caused a bit of strain in my life.

Now, on to my current marriage. This have been up and down with us, but with much prayer and faith in God things have always managed to work out. He works full time, but between paying our share of the bills, well, getting a place of our own is out of the question.

It seems that lately, my parents, have let things go so far and seems they are wanting us to move out. I say this because we are putting up with more fighting and going on that really, wasn't THIS bad before we had to move in with them. Don't get me wrong, I love my parents, I just can not stay here any longer. The fighting is tearing down what nerve I had, along with the damage it is doing to my three children.

So, I thought it was easier and a smarter move to offer a place for everyone to keep up with my adventure, and maybe if someone felt lead to send a donation I could get help getting us a home.

We have our eye on a place, but unfortunately, bad exes left us with bad credit, so we are having to scrap every penny we can find to try to get a place for my children to live. We have looked into renting places, but right now all that is available is 2 bedroom places. Sorry, 5 people can not live in a two bedroom home. We tried it once, and due to the child protection being drug in against my ex, we were informed right then that for us to get a home with at least 3 bedrooms.

For those who don't know me, putting myself out like this and leaving room for charity and such, is NOT something I like doing. I don't like having to ask for help, and definitely don't like having to do it this way. The last thing I want is to have my business blasted all over the internet for everyone to see, but I figured that to get help, I would have to let people know WHY I'm going to such extremes. Please don't think bad of me for going about it this way, but this is my only other option on top what I am already doing.

If you can help, I am forever debited to you. There is not enough thank you's to cover my debt of gratitude.
