I'm so sorry to hear this :(

There must be some shelters and food banks where you live!  Can you get into one of those while you are waiting for the housing to go through?

"It is good to see ourselves as others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi
