Hey, guys, I am sorry to be throwing this at you like this all of the sudden; however Joey just told me about it at 9PM Eastern last night. We have a severe problem that we thought was resolved; however they called Joey at work today & told him that it wasn't. Two years ago(right after we got married), we took out a paycheck loan. The lawyer gave Joey an option, either pay us $150 every two weeks starting tomorrow or face jail time. Joey panicked, as I have been since he told me last night, and he gave them his debit card information and tomorrow they are taking it out.
We were under the assumption that it had been paid off; however we just found out today that it hadn't been. They are going to start taking $150 out of Joey's check every other week, starting this Friday (yes, tomorrow). Granted this paycheck we have been on a little bit better ground than we have been; however this means that we will have a $50 shortage to cover the rent. This also does not even count the food issue for next week.
Joey tried asking his family; however Shannon stated in no uncertain terms that she will not take us in(because she still hates me) and no one in Joey's family has the cash. I have even broken down to call my ex-husband, Byron; however it went into his voice mail. I even tried calling the most recent phone number that I had for my father & he does not work there any longer. I am just completely desperate right this minute. Honestly, if they had given us a little warning, or waited until next week, we could have planned for it, but this way, we are completely screwed!
I need help more than I have ever needed help in my life! I know that it seems like this is an ongoing issue, and believe me, it is, but this time it isn't the normal issues, this is worse than normal.
