As the saying goes: May as well talk to the wall!
There's just no talking with or to my son. Or at least not about anything serious.
I tried to have a serious discussion with him and find out how he feels about some things. He more or less just "dissed" me or blew me off. He just didn't want to even bother to talk with me about the fact that we may wind up homeless.
He didn't want to discuss the possibility of us having to make some serious and deep "cut backs" or "cut outs" in our life, etc.
I've been trying to find out again how much of the rent he can pay but all I can get from him is- I'll let you know. I tried to tell him that I need to know something real soon so I can make plans. Like I said- I may as well have been talking to the wall or to his guinea pig or myself for that matter.
I even brought up the possibility that I may have to go down and live with my sister in NC and he'd have to find his own place to live. He didn't seem phased at all.
About the most I got from him is- "We'll worry about that when it comes to it". I tried to tell him that I needed to start making some plans. Well anyway- I've already told you how it went.
I just pray that he has the money. He did say he thinks he will have it but not how much.
Even so- I or we- need to get out of this house and find something cheaper. I also need to get a job. Something- anything. OK- anything legal and that doesn't go against my morals. Although I'm half-tempted to check into bar-tending. Probably won't do it though. But it is legal. I honestly don't know what to do anymore. Jobs are few and far between. The economy is in the toilet.
Definitely have to do more praying.
