You never really know someone till you live with them

That’s what I’ve realized. My mom’s eviction situation applies. They were in court today, and the judge gave them one more week to move. Mom got upset because she feels unsafe in her own house, but she was the one who’d offered her coworker a place to stay till he and his family were approved of for housing.

One week to go. I’m hoping and praying he doesn’t get violent with her the way he does with his girlfriend, who’s also violent. It’s sad, but I’ve learned something important from it: As much as you might want to help other people, never invite them into your house.
