It's been over two years since I last posted here. It doesn't feel that way but apparently it has. I really need to start posting more here. Very few people actually read this so it is a brilliant way for me to get things off my chest without having anyone really know what the hell is going on.
Tons of stuff has happened since the last post. I went back to college to boost my GPA to a 3.75. I am proud of myself for that. I am working on applying to Grad School as I write this. I just have to finish my two essays and everything will be ready to go. I am more than a little terrified about not getting in. So much of my future is riding on this. I am also scared that if I do get in I am not going to be able to go because of everything that has happened at home.
Dad lost his job at the end of June. He has yet to find a new one and Mom is freaking out daily to me about it. I wish that there was something I could do to help. I have offered to pay bills and other things but they keep telling me it's not my problem to worry about. I have even offered to go get a part time job on the weekends to help with the money but they refuse to let me. So I have to sit here and worry about them losing everything.
I am 31 years old and I still live at home because I am hoping I can help my parents like they helped me when I lost my job. I pray to the powers that be every night to help my family. We don't know what the hell to do. It feels like we are reaching our breaking point and everything has just started. I don't know what is going to happen. I am scared we are going to lose everything.
Dad won't apply for the jobs that Mom and I are looking for. He keeps saying I can't do that or I don't know how to apply for that job. I am worried I am going to just have to start filling out stuff for him and tell him what job I applied for if they call to give him an interview. I don't want to do that. I did that enough when I was looking for a job.
I really wish I knew what the hell to do right now. I have never felt so lost in my life.
