Can I be saved?

Today is the first day of the rest of my life. Well, I'd like to think so however I feel today is almost the end of my life. My job is a mess. I live it and I hate it. I work with mentally and physically challenged people and I love the guys I work with but the pay is not good. I make 11$ an hour and my boss has told me to my face that she thinks I should be fired however higher authorities aren't going to let that happen too easily. I guess that's the plus side but I can't afford my bills and every month I get more and more in debt.

I have dreams. I want to go through school and become a police officer or state trooper. But I'm in debt... I make about 1300$ a month. I have about 1500$ in bills each month. My roommate just bailed on me. He was giving me 400$ a month. My girlfriends father just passed away and now we have to cone up with 8000$ for a funeral.

I don't know what to do. My job does offer overtime but due to an error on my timesheet 4 months ago my boss put me on 'Decision making leave' which prevents me from doing any overtime and disqualifies me from any promotions/raises for the next year.

I guess the reason I am even writing this blog is in hopes of making money from it. I know that isn't very likely but I need to try every option to keep myself from being on the streets. Here I will try to keep you guys updated on everything because I know that this isn't the end of the world. I hope maybe I can gain some followers who will give me any advice that may help me get out of this very deep rut.

Hopefully this blog will help someone else in my situation down the road that may be in the same boat as me. I have been helping people for the past 11 years but I haven't ever had the time for myself.
