So positives, I have new glasses, and I have my car back. So there's two
massive steps in the right direction. Thankfully a lot of things
managed to align at once one Wednesday allowing me to get my new glasses
and car on the same day, negating the risk having to drive my car back
from Boston without my frames. I've also managed to get back some of my
and my mother important identifying information, and crucial cards that
will allow us to get by.
That said, after all is said and done, we're still at the hotel. Our
apartment search has been largely fruitless. On the one hand, we can
take some solace in the fact that many of the tenants are still in the
same boat as we are, as the market has been difficult for a while.
However, the mounting pressure to find a place before the town stops
covering hotel expenses is starting to obscure that.
Interest in helping out from the town has continued to taper off
rapidly, with the resource folks down to next to 'zero contact' in days,
and with no substantial help in finding us apartments despite the big
show three weeks back promising to help all of us ex-tenants over the
weeks and months we may need to relocate. They told us they were
outlining plans that would see us all from the hotel to our new front
doors, promised us. But now that public attention is fading they seem to
be increasingly ignoring the lot of us.
I've also been diligently taking itemization for insurance purposes
which...has been an emotional roller-coaster. Especially now that I've
arrived at itemizing the losses for my bedroom/office. I also intend to
touch base with a lawyer tomorrow in order to pursue a legal case
against the management of our previous home. And as you can imagine, I
probably shouldn't go into any further detail on that for the time
being.
If worst comes to worse, we will have to relocated to Montana and live
with my brother for a while. It's sort of the emergency last resort,
should we be completely unable to find a place at all. But I'm going to
try as best I can to keep us here in New Hampshire until we are
absolutely out of options.
So yeah...still at the hotel, still looking to leave. I....miss my home.
We both do...The apartment may not have been a stellar one, but my Mom
and I made the place a respectable home. I feel petty complaining about
the hotel. It's not bad. It's really decent. But it's just...it's
uncomfortable. Alien. And while I generally had trouble sleeping
already, it's even harder to do in this transitory space, with the
uncertainty looming over our heads.
This will probably be the last time I link the Gofundme. I already feel
bad enough as it is having had it up in the first place, even if it was
my brother that started it on our behalf. That said, again I want to
thank everyone, every artist, every friend, every fan, every patreon,
every single one of you, from the bottom of my heart for spreading the
word and helping in any way you could. Whether it was emotional support,
solidarity, financial assistance, gifts, or all of those things
combined it's really helped keep me from completely losing it in
this....really difficult time. I love you all, my gratitude is eternal.
Love,
WastedTime
