Re: The insanity of that pink haired chick with piercings.
Now, I don't panic often. I usually keep my composure with stuff and think things through to the end.
However, yesterday was an except. I was in the bank with my mom's boyfriend so I could deposit some money for my brother that he got from my dad. My mom's boyfriend was there to make a mortgage payment.
My mom's boyfriend was talking to a bank employee, because he was going to while I was with a teller and this is what I heard her say was, "If you don't pay 600 dollars by May 1st, the house will be foreclosed on..." I didn't mean to hear it, but I have exceptional hearing from far away.
Mind you, my mom, my mom's boyfriend and I were all laid off within a two month time-frame..
So, I left the bank and just started rambling to my mom for a good ten minutes before her boyfriend came out. He explained that he was as panicked as I was and then requestioned the employee after I left, because that wasn't how she explained the situation beforehand. That meant that the date she was talking about is extended another month or so.
I've never felt so relieved in my life. I've been in this sort of situation before, where my dad just let the bills and mortgage pile up so high that everything was getting turned off and the house was foreclosed on. Hence why I haven't lived with my dad for the past couple of years.
That being said, I'm honestly worried about the electric and the water being turned off, because we're five months past due on that. x_x It's one thing after the other, but I told my parents (my mom and her boyfriend) that they should look into something that can help pay the utilities, since we are all unemployed and that's what programs like that are made for.
I don't know why they didn't look into something like that sooner, though. Baaah.
