Thanks guys, it rlly means a lot to me.
It just feels like nothing has gone right for us for a long time. Since 2010, we've been moved like 6 times (3 times to shelters) and when we
do get a good apartment (even if it's small, we can usually fit me, my mom, and my older brother in somehow), things always seems to fall apart (figuratively and literally) and we end up moving out within a year or two, usually back to the shelter.
And like, it's not like there's some sort of thing within us that's stopping us from supporting ourselves like an illness or w/e. My mom and brother both work at Target for like $12 and $10 an hour and they always do overtime, and they aren't like luxurious spenders at all, but they still can't manage to find a way for us to be stable. It hurts tbh.
I think the worst thing is how vague my mom is being with getting rent assistance. She keeps talking about applying for some program (I think Section 8) and how it'll take like 3 months for us to see whether they'll give us it, but it's the same thing she talked about when we went to the shelter in 2012, soo... And when I suggest giving the cats to a boarding kennel until we get out instead of to a pound or an adoption agency, she acts like I'm crazy.
It really feels like we don't have a plan at all, like we're going into this blindly. It makes me feel bad bc I know my mom is also struggling (almost definitely more than me), but I just wish she would've organized things better and cooperated more. Idk, it's just hard to think and talk about it. Sorry if I sound messy or w/e, I just had to let everything out.
