This Crazy Life I Live

Jump to Comments

SO things are still extremely crazy. Jacob and Misty have been packing and getting things ready to go because they are going to be leaving for TX Friday morning. Because their house is all packed up they have been staying here so our house has been packed. Not only do we have Mom, Dad, me ,Brian, Jacob, Misty and Rebecca but we have also had Aunt Jennifer and Uncle Will and occasionally Zack over at night after they have all been working on packing the truck. Now most of you know my aversion to groups of people so you can imagine this has not exactly been pleasant. I love having Rebecca around more but that just means I am going to miss her all the more when she is gone.

Things are still up in the air with where I am going to live when mom and dad leave. I thought things were going to work out well with Mandi but it is looking less likely because her roommate is dragging her feet finding a new place to live. She has had 2 months and she is no closer to finding a place now then she was to begin with. When I asked her if she thought I would be able to move in the end of this month her reply was that the soonest she would be able to move out would be the 1st of May.

This poses a large problem, see my parents are moving the last week in April and we need to have all of our stuff out of the house by that 28th at the latest so we can clean and have the house ready for the new renters. So what am I supposed to do? I can’t afford a storage shed and a hotel for a week or more, not to mention that a hotel with my pets would be a huge challenge. So I am extremely frustrated with that especially since no one seems to care the place this is putting me in. When I talked to Mandi about it all she said was that I needed to talk to Shelley because it wasn’t her place to tell her when she needed to be out. I see it differently though because Mandi is the one that needs to find someone to take over Shelley’s half of the rent and I am willing to do that but I need to be able to move in BEFORE I am homeless at the end of the month. So this poses a dilemma, I would love to help Mandi and love the idea of being her roommate but I could find a cheaper place to live on my own and not have to worry about being homeless for a week or more until Shelley moves out or the added gas expense and drive time to work. Not to mention the added stress of my boyfriend living with us until he can get back to work and afford a place of his own. Him living with us will not bother me in-fact I like having him around but I know he will not like the idea of living with someone else so there will be stress. I just don’t know what to do. . . .

I have three weeks to figure this all out, pack my house and move, I don’t know where I am going to move to, I am loosing my brother, sister-in-law and niece at the end of the week and my parents at the end of the month and I haven’t packed a single box. Add that to the fact that I have been working 11 hr days at work and sleeping even less then I normally do (which is less than the average person can live off of to begin with) because of all the stress at work and at home and I have not been a happy person lately.
