as some of you know i moved yet again last june and the original plan was to spend july up at my aunt's house in NH so that when we came back in august we would have enough money to actually buy a house this time. well nothing goes according to plan.
for the about the first in july i did stay a week at alison's house as you all have heard but it was her parents suggestion. i didn't ask but i need a place to stay, my little brother was spending the week with my dad(it was my dad's vacation time) and my mom stayed with a friend. once that ended we headed up the NH only to be kicked out by my aunt 3 DAYS later because we won't abandon my dog like she wanted us to do. so that ened with a huge fight between my mom and her sister and my brother and i packing up the car with tears streaming down our faces. the last thing she said to me was "one day you'll understand, katie..." i gave her the coldest look i could manage at that time and i said, "yea, aunt donna, i already do. blood's not that thick after all." it's now december and i still haven't speaken to her even when she commented on my facebook for my birthday. she dead to me just like my dad.
now you may think that's cold of me. well it is but is was colder of her. see when we got back to NJ, we had no place to go. we were techincally homeless. and so begins our hotel-hopping journey, meaning that all summer we were living at one hotel for a few days then moved to the next because we had our dog with us and most of the hotels don't allow pets. but by august we did find one that allow pets but it was around moorsetown/cinnamanson. we stayed here until late october which means i spent my 18th birthday in a cruddy hotel room.
i feel like some of my friends are angery with me because i didn't hang with them last summer. all they knew was that i spent a week at alison's and spent many weekends there. well this is why, why i missed the parties and everything else. going to alison's was my only break from what i suffering. honestly i didn't want to see anyone was else during that because i was too ashamed of where i was living and of my thoughts and feelings. and i'm sorry but this messed me up big time. i learned that when the ice is thin, you actually have less people there for you then you think.
