I have a friend named Tracy who is in desperate need of some help. Her husband recently walked out on her and their 4 year old daughter to go live with a woman he works with. He left her with bills due, no food, and no money. What she needs is money to help her meet their most immediate and urgent needs. If you have anything to spare, anything at all, it would be put to good use, and be greatly appreciated. Please send any donations, if you have any, via paypal to lendahend (@) unsexy.net. Or you can go here to get more details and use the paypal donate button. Thank you.

Help a friend in need.

My son is going to Summer Day Camp. I was hoping that he’d get to go, but it’s $169.00 just for one week, so I wasn’t sure. Today I asked his grandfather (my ex’s dad) if he’d help pay for it and he said he would pay for the entire thing. I wasn’t expecting it.. well I kinda was, but still it’s nice. He’s always been there for Eric when he needs something. I know I can always count on him to help out when it comes to stuff like that. I guess it’s some consolation for the fact that he doesn’t have a dad. Heh. I’m really happy, though, I was hoping he’d get to go! I usually wouldn’t have any trouble coming up with the money, but with a recent vehicle purchase, and having to buy a new television cause mine totally went out, money’s a little tight for a little while. Anyway, I am hoping he gets to go visit with his grandfather this summer. He went a few summer’s back but last summer they had a huge flood and lost their home, and are still in the process of getting all that taken care of. If everything works out, though, he’ll get to go to Corpus for a couple of weeks. One can only hope.
