You do have a full plate.
I think the only way to deal with an intolerable situation i not to tolerate it--to change something. From what you said, though, it sounds like you are overwhelmed, but that some of those items are temporary. Plus, you seem tough. I'll bet you come through it OK.
And then you can post more, which will make us happy. But don't add that toyour list, we'll just wait here patiently.

Good luck with all of that. I'd suggest telling your parents to go to a professional real estate agent regarding their home (unless they are paying you well too handle it).
Other than that, welcome to modern reality. You'll cope. You know it and so do we.

Some advice -- learn to distinguish among
1. Things you really must do.
2. Things you really want to do.
3. Things you've let someone else, including our culture, convince you that you should do. Most "Christmas crap" falls into this group.
If you are brutally honest about #3, it's amazing how well the to-do list cleans up.

Remember that Christmas is the most important thing on your list.

 Santa is coming. That gives me joy. It gives me even greater joy that Hawley will get a coal this year.

What a fresh new perspective!
And Welcome to Asylum!
I'm so happy you're here!
And what is this "must" and "want" you speak of? Have I been programmed? Are you saying Santa is a sham God? That we all bow at his shiny black booted feet? And culture says I must eat and clothe myself and my son... and... I BELIEVED it! I am sickened! Christ! And then, struggle for an education that will only lead to living a life of helping those most desperately in need of my help! To think I actually have THAT on my list! Damn MTV and all of the blinking red and green holiday baubles flashed before my eyes!
(Sweet Lord, I had even planned on setting up a tree for my son to decorate and maybe even wrapping a train set and kitten up in silvery paper, but, surely I would only be sowing seeds of Satan and feeding the machine. Bless you, oh rescuer.)

Don't listen to them. I demand Christmas presents.
Your parents, however, can eat a collective dick. I'll compose an email to communicate that, if you like. I may even have the one I sent my mother in my Sent Items folder somewhere.
Happy fucking holidays.
