I haven't been steeming much lately as I have been going through a really crappy time.
As you may know if you read my posts I have been without power for a month now because I have a really shitty landlord who thinks that leaving your tenants without power for over 30 days is ok. I am really struggling to find a new place. I live in Seattle Washington where they have just passed a new law for landlords to take applications on a first come first serve basis and to qualified applicants only, they are no longer able to use just their discretion. I have not read the law word for word but for some one like me who has really bad credit due to some very unfortunate events in my life and also just because of my own lack of responsibility I will admit that. So because of the criteria the state has I will never pass anyone's background check and I feel like the state is screwing people like me over. I'm not a bad person, a criminal or a murderer I just have bad credit and some tickets to take care of every one isn't perfect!!!
So here we are me my fiance and son practically homeless and nothing promising in the works. It's so hard to keep a positive outlook when things don't seem to be to positive. I am fortunate enough to have an awesome job for the last 9.5 years and I get paid well, I am at a point in my life where I can finally afford things and now life just wants to give me a crappy hand.
I'm trying my best not to complain I just need to vent my frustration about this stupid law. When I was 15 and had a son I needed assistance from the state with food and medical and they had no problem giving it to me, I struggled like that for years until I was about 30 years old I worked my butt off to not have to be on public assistance and a burden to the state and now I can't even get a house or apartment to live in. I feel like all that I have worked for is all for nothing.
Just looking for some advice or just maybe some words of encouragement, prayers or positive vibes sent my way I need all the help I can get if I am gonna get through this.
Thanks for reading sorry it's not happy, who knows it may turn around we shall see. Happy Tuesday STEEM ON!!
