The frustration of Scottish Canals

What in the world am I going to do?

In Scotland, you need a home mooring, CC isnt permitted. So, you put your name on a list, but, you are only able to put your name down 2x per canal. (Deep breath)

I was on a list for a year when my name came up, BUT, you only get 7 days to decide. At that point I didnt have a boat, so had to let the mooring go. The second list, I've been on for close to 2 years, again should I get that email, I will have to give up that mooring, again...no boat.

Am I meant to buy a boat and just dry dock it for potentially a year, 2 years?

Can I buy a temporary license then buy a winter license and have access to the canals?

I genuinely feel hopelessly stuck with this, my marriage has ended and I need to move into my OWN SPACE, but how in the hell do I do it up here? How can I move onto the water quickly and without falling out with Scottish canals?

Give me some hope reddit, I need it badly. Based in Glasgow.
