Pinche vida...

Alan's family is getting evicted. Yea. They are moving into his mom's boyfriend's auto body shop. Alan doesn't understand how it's going to work out. Neither do I. On top of that, he can't go with them because he questioned his mother about where all the money was going to.

"Do you think she has an addiction problem?" She IS always going to the casino. Perhaps she threw all her money away.

"I don't know," he responded, glowering into emptiness.

So now Alan has about a week or two to find a place to live.

I told this to my older brother, who responded with, "Times are hard. I think a lot of people are going to be getting evicted."

But Alan isn't "a lot of people."

We spent the whole day running around looking for a way for him to go to school and get financial aid and going from business to business applying to jobs.

"I think I'm going to have to go to a shelter," He told me blankly.

We'll figure something out, right?

I hope so. But for now, the clock is ticking. And I don't know what to do.

He might leave to Oregon.
