Will She NEVER Leave?
WOW! I'm surprised at how slow this forum is! There HAVE to be a LOT more folks out there with returning fledglings and such!
It's now been a year since our Darling Daughter (my step daughter) elbowed her way into our tiny little one bedroom, 2 room, empty nest cottage and took up residency in one corner of the living/dining room area. This space we had planned to use for my other half's craft tables and such with the adjoining space for my computer/electronics desk and table. That accounts for 1/2 the main room space with the rest taken up by our double recliner, TV, and my wheelchair. You almost need to go outside to have room to change your mind! As I was saying, it was into this incredibly tiny space our 21 year old moved in on us last year with a promise that it would only be for one month"Honestly Mommy, just 30 days! I swear it!", promised she. **sigh**
The last date she promised to move is next Saturday, but nothing is being done towards that happening and she left to be with her friends out of town this weekend so I doubt I'll find out anything till my other half gets home from work. **sigh again** I just LOVE being so included in everything... yea. Now I'm hearing from the mother of one of my daughter's friends that it'll be ANOTHER 4 MONTHS before I get my desk and living room (such as it is) back... not to mention our privacy and dignity!
Since she's been here she's worked 4 months over the Xmas holiday last year period. She smokes pot daily in place of the meds she should be taking for her bi-polar condition and drinks more than is healthy for anyone of any age.
I've been pretty much bed/wheel chair bound for some time now, and with the limited seating out there I usually end up the odd one out and am relegated to our bedroom 24/7. So night after night I listen to them laugh and carry on while I feel like a prisoner in my own home... And I'm at my whit's end.
Sorry to cry and complain about it in public like this but I just don't know what to do! Does ANYONE have ANY ideas?
