Starting over again... Mood
Saturday, November 7, 2009 | A Sad story

I have been having a lot of issues with my son and him being so disrespectful to me. He started to build a shed in our backyard even with great hesitation I agreed to let him and his friend do this project. That way, my garage could be cleaned out and they could use it as a "playroom" he is 20 so it's more like a lounging/tv/darts room. Anyway, he started this project at the end of May and as of this date I only have a cement floor and frame. The rainy season is starting. I have been very patient and nice. Now I am panicing because if he doesn't build it now the rain will ruin all the wood and make the whole structure useless as it is. I have been trying everything I know to get him to do it without luck. I finally gave him an ultimative and we had an argument. Most likely I will need to kick him out at the end of next week. It is very painful for me to go to this extreme but he has been nothing but disrespectful and lazy. I am done raising him and he needs to know how the real world really is. But I want to help him. I am torn. This has been so emotionally draining and upsetting for me that I reached out to the only comfort I have known for almost 40 years. PULLING. Why?? Why is this a comfort to us??? Dang it!! All my hard work gone in one long night. I am very sad but not angry with myself which is very good. I wil pick myself back up and start again. Just giving me a little break from the whole thing and plan to start again on Monday. Giving myself a few days of not caring whether I am pulling or not. I think it helps me in rejuvenating myself and gathering the strength it takes to battle this thing one moment at a time. Thanks everyone. please keep me in your prayers and I can always use a hug. Sad times....my bottom lashes were getting so long. I have not seen a full set of bottom lashes or any lashes like I had since I was 11 and I pulled them all out. Unlike some people who have let their lashes grow in sparsely, I never have. I have always had bald eyelids since this whole trichotillmania started. The one thing for sure is I will continue to battle this now until I have been successful or truly beleive that it is not in the cards for me to ever fully recover. I choose to believe I will be successful in my journey. Peace, Linda
