I'm Going CRAZY!!!

Excuse me while I vent...


I am SO tired of...of...my life right now! I'm tired of living with my parents. Have you ever tried to stay one step ahead of someone chronically unpredictable??? I'm telling you—it's enough to make a woman OD on her prozac! I stopped counting how many times my Mom has commented that I need to do something with the toys in the living room. And it always comes out as something like, "I'm SO sick of living in this mess. I guess I'm just going to end up throwing my stuff out to make room for all the people I've got living here." Okay. I have three responses to that.

• Uh, hello??? YOU INVITED US TO LIVE HERE!!!!!!!!!


• Do you think I ENJOY living like this? At this point you have more space than I do. I don't have anyplace else for her toys to go. We have NO more spacd in our 10x10 room, and you get mad if I put anything in the room where Adri used to sleep. If you haven't noticed lately, we're remodeling the basement so we can get out of your space. I can't take her down to play in a construction area, nor can I store her toys down there. Trust me, I don't want to be here right now anymore than you do. And I won't take second longer than is necessary for us to get out of the mess that we're in.


• I spent so long venting on the second one, I've forgotten my last one. But rest assured, I would have said it with great gusto!

I just have to keep reminding myself that things will be better once the basement is finished. We will have our own living room, television, bathroom, and most importantly, a bedroom bigger than 10x10!!!!!! I still miss having my own kitchen. Cooking is one of my passions, and I usually don't get the opportunity to that any more.

So if you need me, I'll be curled up in the fetal position. "I feel good, I feel great, I feel wonderful. I feel good, I feel great, I feel wonderful....."
