stressed

I am extremly frustrated/stressed to the point of where it is almost making me sick to my stomach.  My mom got laid off from her job, i think almost 3 months ago.  I don’t know how hard she has been looking for a job, it isn’t my business.  I know that she is looking/wanting a job where she makes what she did at the last company she was with, but come one now some money is better then no money, isn’t it? She has filed for unemployment but that is only like 250 a week and some stuff has gone on to where she hasn’t received any checks.  I don’t ask to many questions because I don’t want to make my mom upset and I don’t want to fight with her.  As some might know me and my daughter live with my mom, yes my mom has done alot for me.  No, I haven’t given my mom much money and no I don’t or haven’t paid her rent.  She told me 2 days ago that if she doesn’t have a job come the end of Jan that everyone will need to pitch in and help her get the house on the market.  Well then last night she got off the phone with my sister and right before I went to bed she told me that is she losses the house don’t be suprised if my sister doesn’t ever talk to me again.  I don’t know what my mom expects from me, I know she wants money but how much does she want?  I have my few bills and I have diapers and things to buy for my daughter.  I bring home around 700 every 2 weeks and pay the sitter 250.  2 weeks ago I suggested to my mom that if she watches my daughter I could be paying her, well she doesn’t want to do that because she likes and doesn’t want me to lose the sitter that I have now for my daughter.  I don’t know what to do, the bf doesn’t have to make his bike payment this month so I asked him if he would or could help out my mom with a bill or 2 this month and that I would rather him do that then give me a x-mas present.  He told me he would, guess we will see what happens.  I emailed my mom this am  
ME:What 2 bills to you need and want us ( me and Randy to pay this month)
how much are they?
MOM: don’t know; you’ll have to look at the bills that are due.
 

Am I being selfish or was this a little cold from my mom???  I am trying to do her and I a favor and she tells me that I will have to look at the bills that are due?? WTF  I don’t want to fight with her, but I am waiting for us to have a big blow out.  People that know me, know that my mom at times isn’t very supportive and throws some nasty things about my past in my face and has said some very hurtfull things to me.  I am tired of hearing the hurtfull words everytime we fight, everytime she gets mad at me.  I don’t know what to do, I am lost.  Aren’t your parents suppose to be something like your bestfriend, someone you can always count on and turn too when you need something?? 

I have to get back to work, take care everyone!
