we need help (and we need hope)

mickeymHey, y'all. How is everything for everyone? I hope going better than for my household.
I'm just going to flat-out say it -- and I'm so upset that I need to -- but we need financial help. Again? Still? I don't even know, any more.
We've had a rash of missing wallets/IDs. Madisyn finally found hers, so she's applying for jobs again. But Megan and Donnie are both waiting on replacement IDs. Donnie lost the job she had. They claimed she called in excessively (they said 10 times, we could only count three, and she had Dr's notes for two of those). Matthew is finally employed, but it's construction-related, so the jobs are just starting to come in. He's been with the company for three weeks, now, but only started working this week.
Our electric bill is being covered by the local Community Action service, but that still leaves water, and the overdraft I created in my bank account because we had to have groceries -- and no matter how many cuts you make to a grocery list, it's still expensive to feed five people. And we need groceries again. We'll need rent again in ten days' time, and Matthew needs his meds, and it's an endless fucking list of things we need to pay, it seems.
If anyone can help, any amount, I would be forever grateful. We're going to use Megan's Paypal. Her email is megan.vanmeter11@gmail.com
I'm posting this here on LJ, on DW, and on FB. If you can repost or share it, I'd be grateful for that, as well.

I think, see if you can cancel your action, then try to send it again with her email: megan.vanmeter11@gmail.com.
And thank you, so very much.
