RANT!!
Called my mom to see if she can give me a lift up to Wal-Mart so I could grab formula for my daughter who doesn't have enough to make it through til tomorrow morning and she said no because she's waiting for food even though her husband is home.. I've tried everyone I know and I'm getting excuses out the butt. I help everyone with no questions asked but when I need help not for me but for my daughter even her grandmother doesn't want to do it. I now have to push a stroller on a 45 minute walk (just one way) in the dark all uphill with a messed up wrist. I wish my husband didnt need the truck.

Is your husband gone all night? Any chance he can grab it while he's out?

I feel so bad for you, I would totally help you out.
Please be careful on your walk. ?

Wish I could help. Can't believe your mom wouldn't help.

Is there any way you can get it later? Maybe early tomorrow morning? I don't know what the weather is like where you are but is it possible to go a little later? Or have your husband pick some up?

He's 14 hours away for work. He comes home for a week Sunday. I'm trying to see if he can send me the money for a can but he's 2 hours behind in time so he usually doesn't get off work until 11 my time which is when Wal-Mart closes..

Uber? I feel so bad I wish I could help.

If he didn't bring the vehicle he would not be able to get to and from work and he's gone for a long time. He's been gone for a month. He sends money as I need it. I was supposed to cash a check today but the postal service messed up and by the time I got the check the bank was already closed.

We don't have uber here. And we have delivery services but it's 10 extra dollars for a delivery and I have enough for formula until I can get a hold of my husband.

Do you have any neighbors you can ask to give you a ride?
deleted-user·
Did you not know earlier in the day that you were low on formula?
deleted-user·
I just seen there is no uber there. Shucks. Maybe a nice neighbor? Some stores will deliver first time free.

I have one can that I got early this morning and just discovered 2 hours ago that it was open already. It has to be exchanged. i refuse to feed that to her. Who knows what could be wrong with it. I've been trying to find a ride since I discovered it was open. I could have the truck but that would mean I would have 2 days worth of driving with my daughter in tow because he works all over Canada and he will be even further when he leaves next. Because of this no one that has days off the same time as him lives even remotely close to us so he can't carpool. We have a joint account but he has a different account that all his money is in. I keep telling him we need to put money in our joint account for situations like this but it hasn't happened yet.

I'm so sorry, I hope you find a solution. ?

Yeah. I've been struggling without the truck. If something happens I'm basically screwed. I brought it up last week and he told me I can walk to places but I have arthritis so walking with a stroller uphill is not really an option but he doesn't seem to understand.

A taxi? Bus ?
Where do you live

I remember, you're in Medicine Hat i think. Unfortunately it's too far away. Look for a Facebook moms group from your area, there's usually someone in your neighbor hood that would be willing to give you a lift or bring you some formula

Where do u live?
Sorry you're in a rut but there would be no way in hell I would let my dh take the only car and all the money without considering putting into a joint account. That would make me feel hopeless. ?

Can you make a post on FB? To see if there is anyone around you that can help you out?
deleted-user·
Ugh I wish I could help. Any friendly neighbors?
deleted-user·
I am confused. Is it that your mom won't take you to the store to buy formula, or that you have no money for formula and she won't take you to the store and buy it for you?

I think you are in Med Hat? I'm in Taber. If it wasn't bedtime for the baby, I would drive to you. Can I e-transfer you money for a cab? Please PM me. We can exchange email addresses and figure out details that way.
I'm trying to think if I know anyone in Med Hat, and I'm completely blanking out.

Husband or fiancé?? Some posts it's husband, some it's fiancé?
And one reply you said he needs to send u $ but he won't be off in time to send you $ bc Walmart will be closed, but another you said you have just enough for a can
Then you say the can you got this morning was opened and it's going back. So if you're exchanging it, you wouldn't need any $$
I'm confused

Okay. So mom brain hit hard. I didn't realize for some reason that exchanging means that I won't be forming out my money for a can of formula. I could take a cab. My husband pointed that out too but he's sending me Money so I can have it delivered cause my daughter is now in bed. We haven't been married long so fiance is kind of a habit cause I haven't gotten used to husband yet.

So you got the formula now?
