Wow. Messy.
That's the only way I can describe things, right now.
You see, there's a certain number of people who are like family to me...maybe more than family...and three of them are in rather poor positions right now, socially if not economically. I love these people dearly, they're the most important people in the world to me...and I'm tired of feeling helpless.
Thanks to my beloved coyote and his planning skills, this precarious position that my loved ones are in is motivating us to improve our own position, getting our own place...so that we have some stability to offer them. There's one, who's in the most unstable position of all, who's had the offer extended to him. One, in not quite so dire need, who's next in line for the offer...and they can both have it, if they want to share a room. Or if we get a bigger place. Houses in Norman are cheap, we could end up in a four bedroom...
In any case...dammit...I'm determined as I've ever been...that for once in my goddamn life, I'm going to be able to help someone I care about, instead of feeling distant and useless!
Damn, my emotions are mixed right now. Sadness at thier situations, while thrilling at my own determination, mixed with worry about how things will work out, mixed with relief that even if I can't help one of them, I'll finally be getting out of THIS hellhole...my head is just swimming...
