My mum wants to move into a smaller appartment to save some money.
The good thing is, it's in the same house, just around the corner.
But thinking about packing all the stuff, moving it out and four stairs up is giving my a bad headache.
And thinking about the fact that I won't be living that long in the new appartment I don't really know if I should find that good or not.
Okay, it's only 10m² smaller, but costs €100 less.
It has only two rooms, but a chamber as well.
She wants to make an appointment with our landlord to have a look at it.
Well, and another idea stands behind it.
my grandmother lives on the fourth floor and can barely move up the stairs. They could move into our recent appartment, which would be much easier for her to reach since it is on the first floor.

I don't really know what to think right now.
I don't want to move, but on the other side it would be easier for Mum and she could keep this appartment after I moved out.

Maybe I am making too much out of it. I know I sound like a spoiled brat.
It's just a strange feeling.
But I never thought that we would have to move becasue of money problems (and I have the certain feeling that it is even more worse than she tells me).
I feel helpless because I can't do anything to help her. She even forbade me to think about puting university on a halt for a year to go earning money.
Shit...

I don't think you sound like a spoiled brat at all (Ha! If you are spoiled, I dare not think what that would make me...). Those are serious problems and it's not surprising you're worried. *hugs tightly* I think all in all, the apartment-switch sounds like a good idea. That way, at least you won't 'lose' your old apartment. And, well, don't worry about the moving thing. If you need help with carrying stuff around, just ask. I got used to it in the last year... ;)

I wish I could offer any other help or brilliant solution. But I'm affraid except for the above-mentioned, all I can offer are hugs.

*cuddle*

Thank you.
For the offer and the hugs.
Needed right now.

The problem is that right now the former inhabitamt of the appartment decided to stay another year but the landlord had already placed the ad.
So we probably will have to wait another year to switch.
But he said he would see what he could for us because of the money issue and that he will tell us when another appartment is available.

It's helping to write about it I think. Well and my grandparents offered help in a financial way.
I just feel helpless, I want to do something but I have no idea what.

Thanks...
*hugs*
Miss you...

Well, if you absolutely want to help, the best idea would be a 'job' that doesn't take a lot of time so it doesn't interfere with uni. (like mine at the website - unfortunately Jeroen won't pay another German translator at the moment :S)

I keep my fingers crossed that your landlord can work something out and/or the issue resolves itself sometime soon. Otherwise... if you need someone to talk to or a shoulder to cry on or just a hug (atm onl virtually, unfortunately), you know I'm always here for you!

Well, I have a job and I do support my mum with the money I get for still being a child.
But thanks for thinking about asking.
I just have to lay back some things I wanted to do which require some money.
I just can't ask my mum for her credit card right now (Which pretty much the smallest problem here).
But it's okay so far.
She thinks next month will be fine with the Christmas money. Or at least a bit better.
I just hope she is right.

And I know that you are there. Thank you.
*hugs*
