Need prayers guys..

[Bassboss]

Hey guys, I've kinda been pretty quiet about this the last year or so, but, I suppose now if the best time to say something, so here goes.

So here's the deal. My dad's unemployed, my mom works at the deli making not enough to make it. We've been living with my grandma/dads mom that last 2, or 3 years. The house has been in short-sale the last few months and it's now sold, we have until the 20TH OF THIS MONTH to get out. We have no clue (my family minus my grandma, she's got a place in WI all figured.) where we will be living in 3 weeks, unless something miraculous happens, we will be living in the woods. We've barley got enough money to hold onto the truck right now, and probably 90% of my moms pays check does to it. But miracles can happen. Me and my older brother will probably have to get jobs to help out with whatever... don't worry, we WILL NOT drop out of school, their's no way my dad would let that ever happen. Hopefully I'll be able to crash at a friends place for a while.... So if you guys could pray for us and my dad to get some kind of job ANY job, and for an affordable house to come our way. This may be the last you hear from me for a while until the 20th, I'll try to get on as much as possible after then, at the local library or something, at at school.

Thanks you so much guys, you're like family.

Real sorry to hear about the tough times Sammy. I truly hope things start looking up for your family real soon. I will keep you and yours in my thoughts and prayers!

[brushhog]

Sammy, life can get very difficult and it becomes very hard to remember what you do have and worry less about what you don't have. You have a great family, good friends, and your health. I truly believe these times will pass for you. Be strong for you parents and help if you can, God Bless you and I will be thinking of you!

[nofearengineer]

Sammy, you know I always want good things for you, buddy.

You might not believe it, but there are some scary parallels between your current situation and my childhood. Scary.

I wish I could help you, man. Hang in there.

[keithdog]

I'll DEFINATELY say a prayer for all of you Sammy. So many good families are struggling these days. Trust me, I understand. Just try to keep the faith friend. God will get you where you need to go.

Hey Boss, I wish you and your family the best of luck. Keep thinking positive and good things will happen. You and yours are in my thoughts.

[WatterBoy]

Praying for you and your family, Sammy. Sorry to hear of your struggles, but keep your chin up and stay strong in your faith.

[carolina-rig-01]

Man Sammy I hate hearing this. I wish there was something that I could do to help out. We will be praying for all of you guys.

[tarpon120]

Hate to hear that things are not going good for you guys right now. Hang in there and remember you still have family. Many years ago my father told me that no matter how bad I thought things were in my life, I did not have to look far to see someone else who had it a lot tougher than me. I will be fifty this year and that statement has been true all my life and I have lived some very good and extremely bad times. My thoughts are with you and things generally work themselves out if you give it time.
PS: This has also been passed to my sons who are 16 & 15.

[Bubba_Bruiser]

Boss, I am sorry to hear you and your family are coming in to these rough times. But I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.

[AUFred]

Your family is in my prayers, I wish you and your family the best and things will get better trust me I had to move because of money troubles awhile back.

[1/4 stick]

Praying for you Boss. Hang in there, better times will come.

[Bassboss]

That you SO much guys, you have no idea how much it really means to me, thanks you!

My dad has applied to 2 jobs so far that I know of, one at PBSC, and the other the Honers collage in Miami. He said a few others too, but they were just little rinkydrink ones. Hopefully thing get better before the 20th.

[Vegasspider]

Prayers all around for you boss. All around I dont think you will find a better group of guys than on this board. I got off to a rough start with them. (Real bulldogs) But now I see why and would not trade them for anything. Hope to meet most of em and fish thier tourn one of these days. Maybe you and I can team up for a tourn next year.

[Bassboss]

Y'all, I sure think the prayers are working!!

My ma just came home a while a go from work, and she found out about some some affordable housing north of here a little ways the next county over. I didn't get all the details, but her dad seemed pretty happy!

Vegas, thanks man, that would be great next year if everything goes good!

[Abbeysdad]

Bassboss, I'm very sorry your family has fallen on hard times. The economy has made it especially hard for a lot of folks. The company I work for has downsized by about 50% and I have only recently turned my office light back on and crawled out from under my desk.

Hang in there and don't for one second consider quitting school - you'll need that diploma. Do what you can to support your family emotionally - it's times like these that test our true grit and nothing's more important than family.

[bcklash]

Sammy times are tough hang in there buddy we are praying for you and your family.

[woody]

Sammy, don't worry; you guys are gonna make it. We're all praying for ya.

Keep your head up. Things will soon be looking up. We will keep you in our prayers.

[skeeter1804]

Don't lose faith buddy. Ask GOD for help. I will pray for you and your family.

[Bassboss]

Thanks again guys, I think things are looking up! Yesterday we had a guy that I met a while back, at church, come to the garage sale. We got to talking (him, me, and my mom), and he said that if we don't find a place he's got a 2 bed 2 bath ready to go that we could stay at free of charge for a while, until we found a place of out own.
