Just Another Divorcee

Getting divorced is a hardship.  Getting divorced with 2 kids is even harder.  I was married for 5 years to a man who abused drugs and alcohol.  He was a functioning alcoholic and had a decent job.  During that time, I aquired minimum wage employment.  No surprise, now that we are divorcing, I am no longer welcome to his income.  All of the bills and anything we purchased was always placed in my name.  I have now taken on a second job and am looking for funding to pay off my vehicle that I am upside down in and my 2 small credit cards.  I realize there are people who are far off worse than myself, but I am also a realist and know that there are plenty of people out there who could easily help me.   I thank you in advance if you feel so inclined.
