Most of you know I've been out of work for quite some time and that i recently got a consulting job in Manhattan that started beginning of June. i thought that financially we would be ok because the job started just as my unemployment insurance was running out.
Here's the problem, because I am freelancing, I am considered a vendor, and I am not going to be paid for 60 days from the day I submitted the invoice to the company, which won't be until end of August. Financially we are strapped and will be unable to pay our August bills without that money I was expecting. We tore through our cushion somehow. Money just seems to go.
Anyway I reconciled with my dad and stepmom about 6 months ago after a 9 month estrangement, and i was the one who ended the estrangement even though they knew Sophie got diagnosed with autism while we were estranged and they still never reached out to me.
They have been very helpful trying to get Sophie used to them so Tim and I can get a little freedom and also so I can find full time work (that hasn't exactly happened yet but we are all working on it). I asked my dad for a small loan that I would pay back at end of August when I got my check. He knows how horrible our situation has been since her diagnosis and that I have been out of work. He said he did not have the money which I know not to be true.
They definitely have this very small amount of money. He has loaned my extremely irresponsible brother at the very least, 20K. He didn't even ask me how much I needed, he just said he didn't have it, that it was tied up, which I know couldn't be possible. They take too many vacations and are in no debt. He knew I would pay him back in less than 40 days, I have never asked this man for one penny. I told my twin brother about it, he is beyond livid that our father would not loan me this money, so my brother is going to loan it to me. I am really upset and confused about this and I asked my brother not to turn this into drama but I am very upset about this.
Then yesterday my stepmom called here to try to get my hubby to drive my DAD to the impound, my dad's car had been towed because it was parked in a no standing area. They have an indoor garage spot for their car in an apt. building that they pay over 200 bucks a month for, yet he decided to park on the street because it was closer to his apt. It cost him 400 bucks to get the car out, but he has no money!! He is being one royal jerk. He has not called me all weekend which is unlike him, she has been calling trying to get me to come to dinner but I keep making stuff up. I just don't feel like seeing them right now and I am not even sure she knows I asked for money. I feel like she would want to help. I don't know what his problem is, I'm his only daughter and we actually have a relationship now and he is blowing it. He knows this money is the difference between my getting bills paid and not getting bills paid, this isn't about frivolity. Sorry just needed to vent.
