We just moved miles away to get a new start and we have that but since moving here we have run out of oil twice. Our car went up in smoke. We pay our rent to keep our apartment before everything else so our heads are always protected. I suffer depression already but it is hard having people that want you to fix everything you cant. We only answer our phone when it is someone we know. I got my credit back on track then someone stole my wallet a week before we moved here and now it is in toilet again. When will the world stop dumping on us?
My sons father is upset he cant see his son more but we are on the bus line it stops almost at our door.
My son cries to see his dad and then when his dad calls he yells at us that we need to move back..that wont fix the issues. Then we will be homeless as we couldn't find an apartment there. Not to mention we dont have the down payment on an apartment if we cant fix the engine of the car.
We also have severe hoarding issues appearing in my two older children. I try to keep up with it as i was a extreme hoarder three years ago but it is hard for me to even look at it as then i just want to cry. once a week I go and clean it out...
