Again. I'm Sorry
11 years ago
But I have been having a load of legal and financial troubles lately. I have been too sick to work and as a result have been evicted from my home. So I have joined the ranks of the homeless. After an 11 year struggle to keep my house, I lost. Yes, I am seeking legal advice regarding this situation, but I know that I am just too tired to keep the place, too broke, too depressed and too old.
Oddly, part of me is very relieved. It hasn't all sunk in yet. I'm kind of in shock. They gave me ten minutes to get myself and my cats out of the house before they sealed it. I was able to get everyone but Cleo, who I have had to leave to the tender mercies of the ASPCA because she panicked and would not let me catch her. That hasn't sunk in, either.
So I have 4 cats, three changes of clothes, my computers and the jewelry my father made. That's all I own at the moment. And, yes, I remembered to grab the artwork I owe people.
I don't even have my art supplies at the moment.
And before anyone faints, I'm not out on the street with 4 cats. I'm at mom's. I'm safe and fed, just... blank, I guess is the best way to describe it. I don't like to ask for help. but I'll have to. Just not yet. I have to see what my legal situation is first.

We know you can do it, Vicky. Yer a very resourceful gal. <3
best wishes!
Vicky! How did that happen?
I am sure you should have gotten longer than ten minutes to evict out.
I hope you figure out a way to salvage the situation to some extent at least. Best of luck, and let us know how we can help when the time comes.
You are one of the first (and still a favorite) anthro artist I discovered. You deserve better.
I'll yell when I know what is happening.
Thank you though. Very much.
Thanks

I do hope you're able to get back in YOUR home, and PLEASE let us know if there's anything we can do to help!
However, if this was self help, like, the landlord threatend you with something and forced you to move out, you might be able to bring that to some sort of local comunity mediation thing.
I would recomend reading up on bankruptcy law if that's a thing you think will help (you can't discharge student loans with it, however, and it will liekly require to sell most things you own, certian exceptions applying).
Sorry if this is a little scatter-shot, if you'd like some real advice, maybe contact me and tell me the whole situation and i'll try to give you some general advice (But no legal help, I can't legally give legal advice, as I am not a lawyer yet) to help you try to stay on your feet.
And now that I have all my cats, a fair amount of my stuff and movers coming, I'm okay with it. Just one more financial hurtle to jump and I'm free.
I hope things get better for you. I don't even know you and reading this has me heartbroken.
10 minutes? WTF is wrong with people.

That...all sounds confusing to me. Sorry to maybe aska stupid question, but what did you fight over for 11 years?
