Hoping

12/20/19 -- Here's to hoping (in Christ) that 2020 is so much better than this year has been.  This year has been so, so, I worked for a part of the year, not working right now, since September.  Really sucks, that I haven't been working, even part time, would be fine.
  There is still zero communication between my son and I.  I can't even get him to comment on text messages without him thinking that I want to talk about the past.  So, despite how I feel I need to just let him go and do his thing.  I am praying that reality will "smack" him in the face to realize that he needs his mom, in his and his daughters' lives.  I so want to just be a grandma to my granddaughters and leave the past alone.  I have zero interest in rehashing the past, in anyway shape or form, yet either he thinks so or his wife does.  All that to say, they do seem ready, and I don't understand it but I can't control it, either.
   Right now, I am in a rather bad situation, with my car and rent.  My car needs about $900 worth of work on it, rather soon, too.  The passenger side, front wheel bearing is going out and the tie rod is broke or breaking.  According to the mechanic, I have some time - like it's not going to fall apart in the next day or weeks.  However, this is something that I NEED get repaired very soon.  Even if I was working I wouldn't be able to afford to get this work done.  Geezlaweez, the car was given to me but I have had to put money into it that I wasn't expecting or thinking.  Keeping the oil changed is something that I know, always has to be kept up, but new rear brake drums and now this with the passenger front side is ridiculous.
