#so....yeah...

okay so, i’ve done this once before, when moving out of my abusive parents’ home last may.

essentially i’m in the same situation, except maybe being forced to move back home. yesterday i found out from my mother and then my sister that my nephew is $1500 backed up in daycare fees. our rent is also due on the first of april. i had no idea my sister was this behind in payments, and due to the loans she has in default now, and her credit cards being past due, she can’t get any loans to help her pay this.

we were supposed to be moving to a new apartment in our complex april 15, after our lease expired on may 15 and we wanted a downstairs apartment. however, my sister is using this window to figure out what to do because we can’t afford to live here. i didn’t know any of this, aside from moving, until about a week ago. 

i’m pretty sure her plan is to move back in with my parents, and i cannot do that. they were emotionally mentally and physically abusive until i got out of there last year. even being stuck around them now makes me sick.

SO

my friend is going to let me stay with her in a different city (where i’ve been planning to move for half a year anyways) under the conditions that i have a job and a car, very understandably, due to some incidents that have occurred with people living with her in the past. i would be able to live there and save money to move into my own apartment. i have the job part down since i can transfer, however the car part is what’s making this difficult. my other sister gave me her old car to drive, but it has some issues that we didn’t know about then and they need to be fixed: the car needs new tires and needs to be re-aligned. also, since i’ve never had a car before, i also need to get car insurance. none of these things are very expensive but i don’t make very much money despite working 40 hours a week, and getting a second job would be a death sentence because i’m physically disabled and my current job already wears me down. i also would like to make sure when i leave my sister’s apartment that i don’t leave her high and dry with all the bills.

the money would go to getting my car fixed, and then to paying my insurance. if there is anything left over, it will go to my savings for the deposit / rent / fees for the new apartment i’m planning to move into
