Stress rant
I’m so unbelievably overwhelmed with stress. I honestly don’t know what the future holds. My husband joined the laborers union last summer and things were going good. I was pregnant but able to stay home (quit my job because they were trying to push me out anyways and I was bawling my eyes out every day), and we were living comfortably. Never worried about rent, never worried about groceries/gas/etc.
Now it’s may. My husband has been laid off since the baby was born (early November) our landlord is selling the house so we need to find somewhere to live asap, we blew through any accounts we had (401k, husband’s sick time, wedding money, tax money) and he’s got 3 weeks of unemployment checks left and that’s it.
Even if I were to get a full time job the most I’d be able to pull in is enough money for rent. So at least we’d have a roof over our heads but I wouldn’t make enough to cover anything else.
I just don’t know what to do. My husband will get a day of work here and there but the owner has no clue of when they’re going to actually get long term jobs going thanks to the economy & tariffs. I just don’t know what the hell we’re supposed to do. I know if it came down to it we could move in with my parents but that means my little brother (15) would have to share a room with my stepson (9) and also I’d never get a moment of peace with a full house at all times. I’m just at a loss
I would go and apply for emergency housing assistance cash assistance and food support, it's not easy living on unemployment sorry about your situation.
