Bahhh! I bought some Xbox 360 games for my dad online, he likes to collect the FIFA games and I found a couple he doesn't have and I was going to give them to him for Christmas 😾 Slightly annoying. I got him a newer Xbox360 console that I had modified so he can install games to the hard disk so being able to read them is kinda very important.

Thanksgiving and my family and I still haven't gotten paid yet?!

What in God's name am I even waiting for anymore?!

Paid?

Waiting for government support, they could be slow due to shutdown.

Please pray for me. I spent half my money on my homeless brother making sure he had Thanksgiving food. And for the past couple days I've had very low blood pressure and great dizziness. My trunk and arms and legs and face are swollen with edema. But I'm gonna go and play actress and smile and give everyone the happiest Thanksgiving I can. My daughter is in such a panic over me. Please pray for her.

Chronic pain gets real old, real fast. That being said... even with the pain I feel a lot better when I'm constantly *doing* things instead of watching stupid nonsense on Youtube. It's getting easier to resist that.

I'm sorry to hear that you are in pain. I hope you get to feeling better.

Sadly, "better" usually doesnt really go along with chronic pain. There's low pain (the default), high pain, and "having trouble moving". Something always hurts at least somewhat.

You do eventually get used to living with it. I'm in the same boat, got hit by a car at age 14, permanent spinal damage.

Mom just called. She resents that I won't help her cook her Thanksgiving dinner and that I won't help decorate her house for Christmas the day after. I resent her shame based parenting, but I decided not to respond with that.

You can break it, but you need to not only DO the required actions (locking her out, ignoring the phone), but also CONTINUE them. But only you can make those actions happen.

And if she tries to escalate or do anything dangerous, get law enforcement involved. Seriously, you need to DO something. Imagine how much better you would feel with her poisonous influence gone. But if you dont take action, she will never, ever stop.

And if other family members get all uppity about it? Lock them out too.

So I basically have to wait an hour downtown in the rain because the bus I was relying on to make my transfer never showed up. Public transit here sucks, I am thinking of quitting my job so I don’t have to ride the bus again.

I'm sorry this happened. I remember a time when my Dad took off for a while and left my Mama and I stranded at the horse pasture with a tropical storm or hurricane (I forgot which but it was one of those bad storms like that) coming in. We had to start walking home with it like that. I tend to try to look at such things as an adventure, stay positive and just roll with it. I hope you made it back home ok.
