Mi casa
Gosh, I don't think anyone could have prepared me for this. Room-mates are rough.
Don't get me wrong, they're great, but living with others is such a challenge. Everyone having their own sleep schedules and habits. Everyone being too busy to clean, but not busy enough where they're away from the house 24/7, making the place look like a dump all too often. Ugh.
I'm not used to it. I've had a few mental and emotional breakdowns; one too many if you ask me. And the poor boy is getting to be just the same. His schooling is taking up so much of his time, and now working with an elderly woman who has dementia, he's becoming flat out drained. He's the strongest person I've ever met, and just yesterday (which marked our being together 16 months now) he cracked and just cried and shook once he walked in from work. I've never seen him like that before. Though his pains focus was at the lack of attention he's been giving me, I told him I was just fine and he needed to focus on himself.
So after a few meetings, he'll only be working 3 days a week, and school 4 days a week, with labs like usual. On his way to becoming a nurse... he'll make it just fine.
We're doing great together though I think I need to continue growing for my and his sake in the emotions-department. I'm way too sensitive. (Maybe the book, The Highly Sensitive Person, will help that, ha).
The house is being over crowded with an unfortunate pest and so he and I will be leaving for the weekend while that gets taken care of (it'd better).
Ive had several dr. apt.s and after aprox. 1800- dollars, am not getting treated for a few painful problems (physical). Thank God for my mother, who ranks number one in my life for sure. She paid the bill and has offered to continue to do so as long as I need it. I love her more than anything and am beyond blessed having her in my life.
The cafe's alright. Still slow. Still just making it. I hope to get some things rolling here with a couple newfound peers business wise. Everyone keep me in your prayers! Every bit helps.
Sorry I haven't had the chance to hop on and check up on anyone here, but times are rough and will continue to be so if I don't focus on my issues away from the computer. Hope all is well with you all; keep the peace, and love yourself.
Also! My cell's back to working so feel free to call up; stop by the house and see the place if you haven't already. 805-264-3276
