Ok so its kind of a long story. I'll try and be brief. I live with my boyfriends parents, my mom kicked me out. And his father is very stupid, very stupid. He doesn't help with rent, is constantly putting his ssn on the internet for money he "won". Spending all the money he gets for these sweepstakes. Or on his car that won't ever run again. He has been doing this for going on two years. I might want to mention now that she can't get divorced to him because he won't sign the papers and cant afford to just have it done without him. We have been trying to tell him that putting his ssn on the internet will get his identity stolen. Because of other reasons we have been trying to move away from him. I have been trying to get a job for going on a year, my boyfriend for two. Neither of us have even so much as gotten an interview. We have his mother who is trying as hard as she can so we don't end up homeless. We finally figured out a way so we can move out and buy a house. We found a house that is perfect perfect in every way for us. It was designed for Families with low income and the woman said that the monthly cost would be between 500-700 a month. We could handle that. We got set up for a loan and the person said usually you would only have to put two grand down. Yes! it was perfect we had the money(because of her tax returns) and we would actually have a house. So we set it up for the loan. They said because of her husband the cost that would normally be 2 grand was increased to eight Grand. Ok, we could handle that, barely. I would need to give all my financial aid to the house and a little bit more. I didn't mind it would get us out of here. Then the IRS called and said that her tax return got canceled because her husband had already filed using his ssn. He did not do that. He got mad blaming her and started yelling. We all left and went for a drive, to try and figure things out. The car started saying that there was something wrong with it, another thing wrong. And then later to rub it in more, or birds baby died. I had been working so hard to make sure the poor thing lived. I don't even know what happened there, it was fine a few hours ago. It was cheeping and eating and everything. But it could barely breath and wouldn't move, it died after about 10 minutes. This all happened in about 5 hours. What do I do?

Sorry to hear about your bird. =( Birds tend to mask illness and by the time they act or look sick they're most of the time too far gone.

I was only unemployed for three months before finding a job. Yes, it's a shitty fast food job but I took what I could get so I wasn't homeless. The job market sucks so I know what you mean about that. Just keep your head up. Things will get better.

Not too sure if there's "no fault" divorce laws in your state but that does NOT require both parties to sign the paper work to make the divorce legal. it doesn't typically cost too much. My divorce cost under 800. If she didn't check with state laws already, I would see if you can get her to do that.

Wow, I'm sorry.
Birds can be so hard; I used to raise finches and chickens, and out of all of them that became ill/injured, I was only ever able to save one. She had a broken leg, so it wasn't something she could keep hidden from us.

I'm sorry, I don't think there's really anything I can say or do to help. I wish I could send you a good lawyer, it sounds like your family needs one.:(
