Help, need a mentor?

I have been downloading podcasts, read the forums, read the e-books you guys so wonderfully gave for free, here is my problem. I need a mentor to actually sit down and show me how to do all of this, I am ready to rock and roll. I just talk to a guy who said that there is no such thing as a No Money Down/Bad Credit type deal, ok? Only problem is I know there is, I have done it before and can do it again, he even told me I need at least $2,000.00 in my bank account and a good credit rating even if I work with a Hard Money Lender. Ok, I know I need operating cash for my expenses, even though I never did Wholesaling I may need to learn that, that is why I said I need a mentor, someone who can actually sit down and show me how its done, and help me do it until I am ready to go on my own. I am giving myself 3-4 months to get this started and going AND I need to get it done. I am in the Lakewood, Washington area and the next REIA meeting is to far for me to walk to, lol or even take a bus. I know I am asking a lot of here but I am going on faith here. I need to get my wife and son out of this Apartment complex and get them in a nice home soonest. And the only way I can do that is either pray and hope for a miracle or get back into Real Estate Investments. You guys rock here and have wonderful insights as well as wonderful teachings, I am enjoying it here and learning a lot more then what I learned in the 90's. As I said, you guys rock. :-)
