This economy is gunna be the death of me

It seems I have reach an all time low. On friday i lost my job. I have been installing custom car audio for over 16 years and its all i know. Almost all the shops in my area are hurting and no one is hiring. I guess im gunna become one of the people that all the news channels are talking about. I bought a home almost 2 years ago from a friend and at the time I thought it was a good deal but with the way home values are dropping fast its beginning to look like a bad one. The reason I bought the home was my disabled mother's health wasn't doing so good and i needed to keep her close to me . About a year ago my sisters man left her and her 2 daughters so i let them move in with me and mom. She has been trying to find a full time job ever since with no luck. For years i have prided myself in keeping all my bills paid on time so i would maintain a good credit score , but if i don't find work fast that is gunna all be lost. So i guess the quad is gunna have to go. Its gunna kill me but i have to put food on the table and a roof over our heads. If anyone knows of a place hiring in the orlando area I would greatly appreciate it.

There is an Audio Excellence in Oviedo. Not sure if they are hiring but its worth a shot. You could also try posting stuff on CL to get some under the table work.

Another thing to do is call your mortgage company now tell them you have lost your job you have paid 2 years in good standing see what they can offer you. I know Citimorgage has programs in place. They should work with you as long as you have been in good standing with them.
