Note to reader: The following post is just me venting and it’s not meant to be taken as anything more than that.

Dear reader I have been helping my best friend Adriana stay with me in my room at night because she is homeless right now(She was evicted about a week ago from a room she was renting with pretty much 1 days notice) at the time she said it would be until tonight(her last night of staying here). that she would be staying with me till she got into a hotel then transitional housing until she got a place(The state will help her pay for it).

Now she said that she went to that appointment today and they told her to apply for this apartment instead using the money for the hotels instead.

She found a place but they have to go through all this paperwork which I get but since she works two jobs everyday it’s hard for her to take time off to do things which means she needs about 2-3 more weeks in my room(to see the place, process the application from the programme that will be helping her pay rent, and process the application for the apartment it’s self, she can’t turn in the application for the apartment until she has the paperwork from the programme saying that they will be helping her pay rent) which would be ok except that my dad is starting to get annoyed because he has to wake up about 12:30AM to 1:30AM to let her in because he is weird about giving people keys. I can’t get up because that would be a long time to be up in my wheelchair.

Plus my dad really wants to go to the casino again(We go and get a free comped hotel room at the casino) and my dad doesn’t like leaving anyone at home when we aren’t home.

My dad is a nice guy but he has a short fuse for long-term kindness(He has been taken advantage of a lot before).

I was cool with a week because I thought she would do the temp hotel thing with the transitional housing but now this pretty much looks like till the end of the month.

I just hate looking like the bad guy on this because I told her I want a date to tell my dad because he has been asking.  I am not saying she has to be out tomorrow or anything. It’s just I know my dad will start to bug me about it after awhile. I was able to calm him down before because I kept saying Tuesday would be her last night here.

I talked to my dad and he is ok with her staying with here for now: ).

PS. Her husband is currently unemployed and is watching my God-daughter at his grandmother’s house.
