Do you belong to a church? I had friends who were out of work and the church did alot for them. You just have to ask!
Also, if you could do something like in home child care, lots of busy Moms(like my daughters) look for summer help. It just takes commitment and love to do that job!
Good luck and no, you are not alone. Think of us as your “family of choice”. sometimes that trumps the other kind of family anyway. :-)
As he cares for the sparrow, he will care for you too. Prayers for you.
