I am at the end of my rope.. need help 😔

So today was supposed to be the day that I got everything accomplished and sold this last piece of property to finish the divorce. The car is in her name, and I can't let her sell it because she will take the car and run from her felonies of trying to harm me. So we've had to go through this whole song and dance of power of attorney and getting forms signed etc etc. Today I drove 2 hours from Tahoe down to Roseville near Sacramento to find that they would not accept the forms that we had docusigned through my lawyer so I had to go back an hour up to placerville got her to sign the forms and drove all the way back down to Roseville to have them tell me that they can't buy the car because the registration is suspended because she let it lapse.


So tomorrow I've got to go to the DMV and pay $15 to $20 to get this reinstated, and wait two or three days for it to clear before I can finally drive back down to Sacramento to finish the car sale.

All of this has caused me to lose money for gas and also now the value of the car has gone down because I've put mileage on it driving back and forth more than once. I'm literally down to my last $40 in my bank account and I don't know how I'm going to even get back down to Sacramento on Thursday or Friday. I don't normally ask for help and I'm not creating a GoFundMe but if anybody can spare 20 bucks please message me so I can try to get this handled! I am worn out and beat up and doing my best to stay positive in the face of all of this garbage I just want this to be over with and I want to be done! Once the car is sold I can take half of the money and try to find myself a used car, and hopefully have something left over to live on until I can figure the rest of my life out...
