Tina now has a 45-minute commute each way just to get the kids to and from school. Then she has to drive to work. This means a much earlier start in the morning.

"Instead of leaving at 6 a.m. we have to leave at 5:30 a.m., and then we don't get home until 6:30 or 7 p.m., so the kids have no time to wind down beside on the way here," she says.

Tina says she's exhausted. On top of that, she has come down with strep throat and missed additional work. But she likes this new place. It has only two bedrooms, but there are kitchen counters, new appliances and windows that work. That wasn't the case in the other house.

She's also paying $100 a month less in rent.

"I have to pay for all the utilities, but the landlord here gave me tips on calling Community Concepts before June to sign up for heating assistance, so they're already helping me, which is more than my last one," she says.

Tina is spending more on gas for travel then she ever has before. But that will come to an end this fall, when the kids start attending school in their new town which is causing Tina's oldest daughter some anxiety about leaving her teachers and her friends behind.

"I guess it may be a little harder to get the teachers to understand my problems," she says. "I'm really socially awkward and I don't really talk to people in the first place I don't know."

The eviction was stressful enough, she says. She didn't understand why they were being kicked out or how far away they would have to move. And now she's adjusting to the idea that in her new home, it may take awhile before she feels like she fits in.
