Extreme Makeover Home Edition Come Help Me!

I wrote this song because I'm at my wit's end with this house. My husband just lost his job after 33 years at the same place; he has worked and raised a family, tried to do his best... and now the house is just rotting around us because we can't afford to fix things up and don't really know how - we're not handy around here.

We have had more people stay with us over the years than the total number of years we've been together. Sometimes this place seems more like a hostel than a home! That hasn't changed any, either. There are never enough beds to go around... pretty soon we're going to have to start pitching tents!

Five kids, one income... and Bob's a good man but he's not exactly a handyman. Although he IS in college now learning HVAC.

Just an update... we no longer have a sink in the main bathroom, my husband removed it, but there is so much mold in the wall he gave up and it has been like that for a month now. Meanwhile, we had another flood in the OTHER bathroom which reactivated the mold from the LAST flood. This house should probably be condemned as unfit for human habitation... but then where would we go?

I don't know if this is good enough to send in... but I don't know what else to do any more. I'm so ready to just give up on EVERYTHING!!!
