holiday help desperately needed

I am a single mother of 5 children 3 boys 12, 10, 18mths and two girls 6 and 4 and we are desparately seeking a holiday angel. We have been through some hard times and 1 amazing reunification of my 6 year old little girl. She had been displaced from us now for 2 in a half years after her father took her and never brought her home. they vanished without a trace pretty much and for the last 2 in a half years we had been searching for her. Then in may we received a phone call from cps of oregon telling me that they have my daughter in protective custody and her father was in jail for sexual abuse with a minor being that he had gotten a 16 yr old runaway pregnant. Well it took 6 months of major financial loss but one amazing and long awaited gain of my daughter being returned home just days before her 6th bday. well we spent all our money on the trips to oregon for the court hearings, our mental state was stomped on all the while making us feel like we were not fit to care for her although I had her full blooded sister and 3 half brothers in my care. Well 6 months later after spending every last penny the case was dropped and she came home. But that left my family in a gynormous financial hole. I ended up 3 days after she came home with out electricity and water. I was eligible for energy assistance and after a month with illegal water i finally got my water back on but that left us with nothing to get presents for the kids with. I am on afdc and all of that goes to rent. so I am asking for help from anyone that can help. thank you for taking the time to read even if you can't help. Happy holidays and God Bless You.

Hello,
         My name is Davina  and i am the mother of 5. I live on the south side of chicago.  I dont know how far that is from joliet but I thought I would try anyway. God said if you ask it shall be giveth.  Well as I said I am mother of five I have recently moved into a new place of residency, god blessed me to do that.  Im still working on getting a stove, and to fix my house up.  But with money being funny and me trying to just keep a roof over our head and bills paid it is im posible to give my children a christmas.  The hard part is how do you tell children that bring home great grades and are very very active in school that mommy cant do christmas.  My daughter is 16 and has 6 A's and 1 C in algebra trig.
A son that is a freshman that has really turned his grades around since being in high school trying to follow in his sisters foot steps has 1 c 4b's and an A in algebra. I have a special ed son that has all C's but when I say he has worked very hard to to that they are like A's to me.  Then i Have a 7 year old daughter who is nuts but shes very smart and following her older brothers and sister.  And all she wants for christmas is Hanna Montana.  But mommy cant get Hanna. And a 22 to year old addition to the family that I took in tears ago
when his mom ran out on him and his brothers for drugs.  But i love him he's
 mine now. Again I've tried to do better for them but its so hard. Ive been looking for a job.  Until I can get my daycare together but that even takes money.  So until i do find a job I ave donated 40 hours a week to my childrens Elementary School.  They Have given much to my children and I also try to give back.  And I do over time. When ever i am in need  i am there. I have been L.S.C  charperson., P.A.C. Chairperson , eighth grade committee. Co -coach of basketball and much much more.  Well any way not to give you my life story . I just hope that you can pick my family to help.   Thank you very much

Hondamatic , It is interesting that you deleted the apology , but I still hope the best for you. We all need a heads up sometimes to reveal that we are going in a wrong path in life. You need to re-think your path and how you portray youself to other people. If you continue to speak things that aren't true , you will continue to have a miserable life. soulight

Concerning PTR Sites
By Lady ChristiePost message to Lady Christie

 
    
Posted on Jul 19, 2007

You have probably noticed one PTR site on here. Now I am not putting this site down, it has a reputation of paying members and from what I have read is a good site to be a part of. This is not what I want to talk about.

First off I was naïve and joined quite a few PTR’s in the past; low $5 payouts, high $35 payouts, sign up bonuses and payouts weekly I thought wow I could join this many and make this much a week all by reading my emails. Let me tell you it’s not that easy, yes I did make an income, it was enough to cover my internet and it was hard work. You see what these programs don’t tell you and what the people who want you to sign up under them don’t tell you is that the only way to make money doing these is to have referrals. Now getting referrals isn’t an easy task. You have to be active anywhere that gives you an opportunity to promote your link, sometimes you join other ptr programs just to promote your links and it goes on and on. It is hard work until you build a nice downline.

I would spend 12 hours on the computer a day just reading emails, then time and time again I was fighting spyware and viruses I would pick up from these programs. To me it wasn’t worth the hassle.

My advice to you if you join any paid to read email programs know what you are getting into. There are many legit programs who will pay you just realize the work that has to be put into getting paid.

 

1. Hondamatic posted on Jul 19, 2007
ONE WORD TO YOU " YOU ARE A NASTY WITCH". THIS WAS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS AND DO NOT EVER EMAIL ME AGAIN. EVERYTHING YOU HAVE SAID ABOUT ME IS TOTALLY NOT TRUE. WHEN PEOPLE LOOK AT MY SITE, THEY CAN READ THAT THEY HAVE TO GET PEOPLE TO JOIN. I ALSO TELL THEM THAT IN ORDER TO MAKE SOME DECENT MONEY, YOU NEED TO GET PEOPLE TO JOIN. I HAVE BEEN DOING THE WORK-AT-HOME JOB FOR 3 WEEKS AND HAVE GOTTEN OVER 65 PEOPLE TO JOIN. IT CERTAINLY DID NOT TAKE ME 12 HOURS A DAY TO DO THIS EITHER. I HAVE GOTTEN PAID AND AM ALREADY MAKING SOME GOOD MONEY. I DO NOT LIE TO PEOPLE. I TELL THEM AS IT IS. JUST WHO ARE YOU TO PUT THIS DOWN. IF YOU SPENT 12 HOURS A DAY, YOU MUST BE PRETTY DUMB!!!! IT TAKES ME MAYBE AN HOUR A DAY(IF THAT). GET REAL LADY. ITS PEOPLE JUST LIKE YOU THAT LIKE TO STIR UP THE CRAP. THANK YOU FOR THAT.
2. Hondamatic posted on Jul 19, 2007
YOU ARE A FRIGGIN JOKE AND ARE RIGHT OUT TO LUNCH LADY. EVERYTHING YOU HAVE SAID IS A BUNCH OF CRAP!!!! IF ANYONE SAT AROUND AND DID NOTHING AT THEIR JOB, ARE THEY GOING TO GET PAID???? OF COURSE NOT. YOU DO HAVE TO DO A BIT OF WORK. AND I NEVER SAID THAT YOU DID NOT. BUT TO WORK 12 HOURS A DAY???? YOU ARE NUTS. YOU MUST BE SLOW OR CAN'T WORK(OR RETARDED). AS FOR READING THE EMAILS FOR 12 HOURS A DAY- GET A GRIP. I SPEND 5 MINUTES A DAY READING THESE EMAILS. OH BUT REMEMBER FOLKS, SHE HAD MORE THAN ONE BUSINESS GOING AT ONCE. I AM ONLY ASKING YOU TO JOIN THIS HERE, AND IT ONLY TAKES ME 5 MINUTES A DAY. BUT NOT TO THE EXTENT THAT YOU HAVE MENTIONED. I AM ENJOYING THIS TREMENDOUSLY. SO FOR ALL YOU STAY-AT-HOME MOMS, RETIRED FOLKS, STUDENTS AND EVERYONE ELSE THAT NEEDS A FEW EXTRA $, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CLICK ON MY LINK AND START MAKING SOME EXTRA $. UNLIKE lady christie WHOSE JOB EXPERIENCE NETTED HER $0, AS SHE HAD TO WORK 12 HOURS A DAY FOR A FEW PENNIES HERE AND THERE, TO PAY JUST HER INTERNET. AH TOO BAD FOR YOU. I CAN PROMISE TO YOU ALL THAT THIS HERE WHAT lady christie HAS SAID IS NOT TRUE AT ALL. HERE IS MY LINK. YOU ALL WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.
Let’s get one thing straight. No, this isn’t a $500 a week deal, its not some get rich quick scheme. It’s probably more like $50 a week. Read emails that are sent to you (don’t actually need to read them, just look at them for 30 seconds) and get paid. Receive up to 10 emails a day. Get a $10 sign up bonus! There is absolutely NO start up fees. 100% free. Not going to make you insanely rich, but its a little extra pocket cash. 18+ Must have internet. No sending emails, no calling, just clicking a link in your email. Remember you can increase your earnings greatly by getting people to join up. The more people to join up, the more money you will make!! Start now!
For more info, please click on my link. Thanks!      

(I deleted the link-SL - you can find Hondamatics pages through the Browse feature. Hondmatic has told how this kind of 'job' goes , but I object to her slandering my friend , Lady Christie. Christie is more than able to handle this herself ,as she is a grown woman, but I was just trying to be a friend. -soulight)


 
 3. Lady Christie posted on Jul 19, 2007

For one thing it is my business to make sure people here are well informed, I am here to help people and therefore I will inform people of things they may or may not understand.

Well if everything I said is untrue then I guess me saying your program pays is untrue and that it is a good site to be a member of is untrue.

Not once did I put you down so don't put me down. I only want people here to understand what they may not understand. If they are better informed then they can make wise decisions.

And one last thing you may not lie to people but you mislead them to me there is no difference.


 4. soulight posted on Jul 19, 2007
I just want to say that I agree with Lady Christie in this "conversation".

In no way did she put Hondamatic down , or even mention their name , for that matter.

There are many people who are misinformed about pyramid schemes and other ways of making money on the net, and Lady Christie was trying to help these people by telling them her experience.

The way you responded , Hondamatic , was very defensive . I am not sure what the PM was all about , but if you want people to go for the hit4pay idea , the way you lashed out to Lady Christie on this site isn't going to edure people to you so that they sign up.

This is , of course , my own opinion.
Everyone is an adult here ,and more than able to make their own opinion.

I JUST WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW THAT lady christie ELMAILED ME NUMEROUS TIMES. THEN SHE GOES ON ABOUT HOW SHE SPENDS 12 HOURS READING EMAILS(NOT TRUE-I SPEND 5 MINUTES OR SO). SHE ALSO SAID THAT PEOPLE ARE NOT INFORMED. I TOTALLY INFORM EVERYONE WHO IS WANTING TO JOIN. IT STATES IT IN THE LETTER. lady christie TALKED TO ME ABOUT SOME THINGS AND THEN SHE GOES AND WRITES ALL THIS CRAP. I HAVE BEEN DOING THIS(ALSO TO MAKE SOME EXTRA MONEY), AND LIKE I SAID, I TELL EVERYONE UP FRONT THAT IT MAY TAKE SOME TIME TO MAKE SOME GOOD MONEY. lady christie EMAILED ME AND TOLD ME THAT I SHOULD TELL PEOPLE THAT THEY WON'T INSTANTLY MAKE MONEY. I AGREED AND THEN SHE WROTE THIS. WHY??? IN HER LETTER, SHE GOES ON ABOUT HOW SHE TRIED NUMEROUS WORK AT HOME JOBS AND DID NOT MAKE MUCH, JUST ENOUGH TO PAY HER INTERNET. SOMETIMES, ITS BETTER TO MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS. I AM NOT HURTING ANYONE AND PEOPLE ARE TOTALLY INFORMED ABOUT THIS PART-TIME JOB.

Whatever. I was not yealling at you at all. I was just stating that she emailed me numerous times and we talked about some things and then she writes a bunch of garbage about what I am doing. Thats all. Sorry, but I was not yelling at you at all.   

 


 195. soulight posted on Jul 19, 2007
Thank you for the apology .

I do hope that all goes well for you , no matter what you do.

We all have a right to have an opinion. This makes it good ,and sometimes not so good to have free speech in America !

5. Lady Christie posted on Jul 19, 2007... modified on Jul 19, 2007
I want to clarify for everyone I did not email Hondamatic numerous times (Isent him one message and then replied to his message) also just so everyone knows I was not rude to this person. If this person wouldn't have deleted my messages everyone would see that I had only mentioned the only way to make money with programs such as the one this person was promoting was to build a downline. At this time it was not mentioned in their ad that you needed a downline to make $50 a week. Nothing is clearly stated on the frontpage of the website this person is promoting you have to go to another page which explains about referral bonuses.

Like I said before I am not putting down the program, it is a very nice program and I have only heard good things about this program. I just don't think it should be advertised in a misleading way.

Hondamatic,

 Excuse me, but I just saw your reply to Lady Christie.

 First of all, let me say this: I, too, have done "hits for pay" and the majority of MY time was spent reading emails and since I did not troll boards scrounging up members, I never received a dime.

My initial reaction to your post was disgust, but I felt it was harmless compared to most solicitations we receive here. BUT NOW, you have not only insulted, but were incredibly rude to someone who has spent more time helping people than you could ever imagine and you deny it to soulight.

Your post is nothing more than a solicitation to increase your downline so YOU can receive more money. The more people you get signing up, the more $ YOU make - isn't that right? However, you failed to mention THAT in your post didn't you?

Do everyone here a favor, apologize to LADY CHRISTIE, then take your solicitation elsewhere. No one here needs your kind of "help". 

 1. soulight posted on Jul 19, 2007... modified on Jul 19, 2007


AMEN , WHO~KNEW !

An apology is in order .
soulight  

 

 

I do believe that you , Hondamatic , need to apologize . You mislead Aidpagers and me , and you were nasty to Lady Christie. You need to apologize to her.

 

Hondamatic posted an apology to me (soulight) for 'yelling ' at me . It was on my home page. After confronting Hondamatic , it was removed ,so I wrote one more thing that you will find below :

It is interesting that you deleted the apology , but I still hope the best for you.

You need to re-think your path and how you portray youself to other people. If you continue to speak things that aren't true , you will continue to have a miserable life.

If you read this ,and wonder about different jobs or money making projects on the net , try this page for information . I AM NOT saying that Hondamatics' venture is a scam . You can make money by doing it . It may be a pyramid scheme though , since you make money by referral , not by the 'clicks' .   -soulight

HI Soulight. I took the scripture straight out of the Blue letter bible NKJV because that is what I read and it is the most accurate next to the KJV. Sorry if I offended you. Yes I have been on payment plans and I am out of options. I have tried desperately to be a good stewart of the money my husband left me when he went away. He was able to save up some money for me but you know it only lasts so long. I think it lasted way longer than it should of thanks to God. I do babysit for money but for the life of me can not get any more kids in here. Lord knows I have advertised. God Bless sweet one Krissicas
