[QUOTE="Lil, post: 676767, member: 17309"] Oh yes, I'm sure that's doable...but his old bill is about $500 and he's literally living paycheck to paycheck, barely paying the rent. I don't know how he could do it. He definitely needs to put in for utility assistance, but I know when they went to do the food stamp application they didn't do that one. Stupid on their part. He did that for awhile and it wasn't a good situation. With strangers? Who knows? But they have a 6 month lease where they are, so they're in until June. Really, the rent is only $375 a month, with water, sewer and trash, so that's pretty good for a one-bedroom. He really needs to stay for the 6 months and get a decent rental history. Yes, I think that's very true. Even when he does it to himself, nothing tears me up quite as much as him hurting. I really never thought of it like that, but you're right. It's very close to a panicky feeling. Like I have to DO something. "Fight" being fix it somehow. "Flight" being just crawl under my covers and sleep for a week so I don't have to deal. I'm so not an exercise person...but maybe that's exactly what I need? I need to get the dogs out and feed them (they like to go to bed in their crates even when we're home...it's a habit I guess) but they can wait for a bit. Maybe I'll go shovel snow? [/QUOTE]
