Hey guys, you may know me as the dad that has monetary problems. My ex abused my love for my children, while taking child support.

We are at the end of a two week possession, where she has left me wIth basically nothing. She used my accounts to pay for school registration, daycare... leaving me with less than $40.

I have to make rent this week, which I think I can do...but I just need help with groceries until Friday. I hate asking, and I would normally donate plasma for extra money...but I can't with this schedule.

EDIT: thank you everyone for boosting and helping out. I love all of you. I was able to get all the food I needed to make it through the weekend for my twins and cats. If any of you ever need anything with graphic design, please reach out.
