I'm going to have to find an apartment. They tend to be smaller, which helps keeps costs down as far as utilities go. There's also the bonus of having maintenance help. I just can't do certain things.
I have furniture - not all I need, but enough to start with.
The costs are the problem. I have no idea how I'm going to come up with the cash to do what needs doing. I'm still looking for a job, but that little "throw Judy in jail" scheme is really hurting me. I don't go to court again until January 20th. I found out I did get the job I applied for, and was so excited about. When HR ran my background, and saw the arrest for a felony, I was immediately excluded. They told me when I got that taken off I was more than welcome to reapply, but there was little they could do with that on there.
I could have had H take out a loan against the 401k, but it seems he's already done that for some reason. Probably to pay for his lawyer. I don't know how he got away with that. We weren't supposed to touch marital assets, yet he did anyway.
I really don't want to move to another city and live with my mother. I don't think I should have to, so I'm trying to come up with some way to not have to do that. I can't move in with any of the kids, for several reasons. They've been destroyed by all of this, and having mom underfoot would just strain everything more - I need to come up with a plan on my own.
That's kind of where I'm at. I'm not giving up...just brain-storming. The waiting list for public housing is over a year. I almost fainted!
