Losing our house...
8 years ago
<Insert witty banter here>
Well... I didn't realize things had gotten this bad. I thought we were making progress in getting everything paid off...
Looks like it wasn't enough. If mom and myself can't come up with $13,200 by the end of the year, we lose our house.
I'm at a complete loss. I don't know what to do anymore. Obviously, new art is no longer even the faintest priority. Once I receive what I've already paid for, that's going to be it for an unknown length of time. I thought about asking for refunds, but the work is so far done, it'd be unfair to the artists involved to ask for the money back, at this point.
I honestly don't even know what to do. I just... don't know what to do.
Three months and change is not a lot of time to find that kind of money. But, I'm open to ideas.
Just-- don't be surprised if I'm gone for a while, come the end of the year. I'm sorry, everyone.
On the advice of a few people, I made a GoFundMe page, in case anyone is able to lend a hand. Feel free to donate or to link this journal. Any form of assistance is appreciated FAR more than I can even begin to express.

The added balance is to cover the cut that GoFundMe takes, so we'll still have enough after their share to pay what's owed, if we can make that goal.

Now I am not a believer of the invisible man myself, but what I do know is that churches can offer aid to those in a medical debt or housing debt crisis.
I had a $7,500 medical debt and a local church service took care of it for me since I was unemployed, no income, and had no bank records to my name.
If all other ideas you or other people may come up with fail, this may be your best bet.
Don't give up hope, as there are lots of generous people out there and those that love you and will try to do what they can to help you how they can.
