This weekend has been fun!

Meaning it actually hasn’t. Half of the electricity in my house just stopped doing what it was supposed to do. We had a guy come in on Saturday to pretty much tell us in more eloquent terms “you’re fucked” and that he would come back Tuesday with a price and fix it.

He hasn’t returned my mom’s calls to know when or whatever but that’s another thing.

What I DO know is that it needs to be rewired. Mostly for my part of the house (which is the cobbled together job that it was). Either way minimum is going to be $2.5-3k

So I set up a new ko-fi goal and I will try to do a subathon/tipathon of sorts when we get the real price. But please if you could it would be great if you could signal boost this and help.

Aaaaand my roof is leaking

Shitshitshitshitshitshitshiiiiiit!!!

Ok ok, so the inside for the most part, the house I live in is normal. Few cracks here and a few wall dents there, maybe a busted window or two (not shattered, the top window just refuses to close anymore), but nothing to worry about. Perfectly habitable. But when you get to the back room....

No ceiling. Exposed fiberglass insulation. Exposed support beams. Severe cracking of walls and ceilings in the hall towards the back room. Chipping drywall. No floorboards, only exposed plywood and a long rug. An old water heater that bubbles every time you use the hot water. Exposed wires.

(DM me for photo proof if you wanna see for yourself)

It's just downright awful and very concerning.

Some house damage has been dealt here. A year or so ago, a small stool toppled over and landed on a water pipe, breaking it open and causing water to flood that area. Luckily I was able to get it under control and it's fixed. But not without the water I couldn't dry up sinking into the house, potentially causing damage or mold.

But that's not the focus. The focus is the ceiling. So today it was raining. A lot. I figured it was a normal day of rain, nothing going bad.

Then I heard water drips from inside the house.

I follow the sound and I'm led to the water heater. The big metal pipe to the ceiling is dripping with rain water and some water drops independently from behind the insulation.

And when it started to pour, more water dripped in.

I was able to at least stop the water in its tracks by putting towels on top of the water heater do the water doesn't hit the floor (which I feel is a SERIOUS fire hazard, but I had no choice).

The main reason for this problem is that our roof tiling is practically destroyed. We had to clean up roof shingles all over the yard over the years. No one gave a shit enough to get it fixed, and I certainly can't afford it. Legally, it's not even my house, it's my mom's!

I've been worrying about this all day. But now another worry just popped up.

Black mold.

Even if we fix this, there's still a very high chance of black mold growing in the house due to damp wood.

Plus there's evidence that the ceiling in some places is starting to cave in from water damage.

This house is dangerous. I have to move out. I need to for my own safety. I'm trying to look for low-income apartments, but it'll take a long time to get one. Plus affording one in this climate is a shit circus already. Also, I have no car.

And everyone here is going 'aw please stay it'd be a shame if you left us' and my mom would trap me in a basement to prevent me from moving out if she could (we don't have a basement).

I can't live in a house that could hurt me or my cat. I can't live in a house that has exposed shit and fire hazards. I just can't.

But I'm stuck right now and I'm trying to form a plan, but coming up short. I don't know what to do.

Me right now:

When their entire relationship is toxic, but they're both so fucked up that it's actually the best case scenario, because subjecting anybody else to either of them would be a human rights violation.

Seasonal depression is such a real one. Like I'm irritable all week, I'm sad, I'm mad, I'm bored. I have no direction in life and everything a stress mess

Sun comes out

Me: I clean the whole house. Pay all my bills. Go to the store. Start working on something fresh and new and interesting. I am healed. I am whole

its kinda funny that the chaotix are like the only characters who mention having to pay rent or buy food or whatever and theyll take any job that pays because theyre desperate for money but none of the other characters are struggling in this department at all even though most of them dont seem to have jobs. its like the concept of needing money to live exists for no one in the sonic universe EXCEPT for vector espio and charmy

#sonic actively chooses to not have a house or a job or anything and hes fine ?#like he never seems to have any problems that are a direct result of this lifestyle. hes just chilling doing whatever he wants #tails has MULTIPLE houses/labs and doesnt seem to struggle to pay for them or anything. assuming he even has to pay for them at all #but vector is out here struggling to pay rent even though hes one of the only characters who we know actually has a job #do they just not demand money from tails because he helps save the world so often and is also 8 years old #do they just only target adults with this sort of thing. and thats why vector needs money so bad while no one else does .#and espio and charmy despite being minors have to bear the curse as well because they live with him

So my ceiling got an enormous hole in it...water really does just like to be around me. This is seriously taking a toll on me mentally. I feel like I don't have anywhere to go now :(

I hate thus damn house and just wish we could burn it down.

UPDATE ON CURRENT HOUSE SITUATION:

Ok, so I asked my mom if she had home insurance. She said yes, but only the structure of the house. Once she fixes the roof, then she can get the rest of the house insurance. I have no idea why that is, that’s just what she told me.

Our solution for the leak is that she believes that the pipe leading outside’s seal is very poor, so we gotta reseal it with caulk, but maybe we can get some Flex Seal and use that. But we gotta wait til Monday when it’s warmer out and not raining. For now, we’ll just keep having the towels catch the rain water for now.

I’ll still be looking for a place, but that’s gonna be quite a while. I’m sure my sisters are willing to help me look at places in their cities to talk with people, so that’ll be helpful.

Wish me luck!

last year i found a wii at goodwill for 25 dollars and it came with everything except a wiimote but it was in such good condition i was like hell yeah ill take it how hard can it be to find a wiimote. the answer is it's nearly impossible to find them at thrift stores now so i've spent like 8 months looking for ones in thrift stores but there wasn't a single one and then online but i just couldn't bring myself to spend 30 dollars on one single wiimote so i waited so. patiently. and then 2 weeks ago i finally found one at goodwill for 9 dollars but it was absolutely disgusting and the battery cover was missing and the compartment was all corroded so i put it back and regretted it the whole week but then this last weekend i went to savers and there was an absolutely perfect wiimote just sitting there with no corrosion and a jacket and the wrist strap and motion plus and the nunchuck was there too and i got it all for 10 dollars so the moral of the story is that sometimes things seem right for you in the moment but you have to recognize that they aren't and leave them behind so the things that are meant for you will in fact find you when the time is right. peace and love <3

#for real though im so happy i cant even lie like i regretted selling my wii soooooo much but anyway im back baby <3 #im disinfecting everything rn bc i have a germ problem but once it it's done.....i am SO back #when i first got it i didnt have the remote right so i couldnt plug it in and make sure that it worked but i did just plug it into an outle #to make sure it ran and it did and wii sports resort popped out of the drive so thats fun bc i didnt have that one #and anyway i might cry when i hear the menu sound ngl ngl.#but the city i live in is like an overgrown retirement home and so the goodwill is full of old people things and this wii had stickers #like explaining which cord was which so i just know it was a wii that they bought for like grandmas house and only played it when they were #over there so anyway cant wait to see what's on there and if the news channel and weather channel are still on the homepage even though #i dont think they work anymore lol #also shoutout to the type a kid who kept their wiimote in such perfect condition that i wanted to cry when i saw it sitting on the shelf #ty <3
