Various

I know it's been a while since I last posted. It isn't that I haven't had anything to say. I have. I don't know exactly why I haven't posted.

Anyway, on to the updates.

My older son takes his driver's test for his license on Thursday. He is really excited. I wish I could get him a beater car to drive around.

My little guy is doing a little better. He's still a sweetie. He still has bad moods, but nothing like what happened at school that one day.

My landlord has sent a request to the Sheriff's office for a warrant of removal. The warrant should be posted within the next few days. At that time, I can request an extension from the court. From what I am told, they will grant a one week extension.

Unfortunately, none of the non-profit organizations have any funding for rental assistance. I have taken to getting cans and bottles for recycling. I need 40,000 cans and bottles, which equates to approximately 40 bags, in order to stay in our home. So far, I have six filled.

I do have another option. A very kind, sweet woman has offered to rent her mobile home to me. The home is in Ocala, FL, which is 1,000 miles away. I may very well take her up on her offer. It means taking both of the kids out of school (little guy will have a MAJORLY tough time with the transition and older guy will have to take his senior year of high school in a strange place) but it's something where the three of us can stay together. And it's a new opportunity for all of us. A fresh start.

Right now, either the cans and bottles will pay for us to stay in our home or they will pay for our trip to Florida. This all depends on who can work faster - the Sheriff's office or me.
