Uncertain Summer

I did not secure a summer TA position and I am not sure where to look for a summer job because of the virus and the horrible economy. I had many unexpected expenses because of the virus (I had to stock up on food and hygienic supplies, for example). Since daycare is closed for the foreseeable future, I need money to pay a babysitter so I can prepare to complete my exams. I haven’t received my government check yet and wonder if I will ever receive it. I feel physically ill when I think about paying for rent and food this summer.
