Ailee and I got a place of our own!!! 2 bedrooms 1 bath...
No roommates. No sister. And no mother yelling at me 24/7.
This is euphoria. Just me and Ailee. I knew if I got outta my mom's and started a normal family life I'd be happier. But I didn't realize just how much. I get to rock my baby to sleep and wake up with her without my mom telling me everything I'm doing is wrong or that I'm a piece of shit and whatever else that came to her head. And Ailee is so much happier.We colored a sign tonight that says "Ailee and Mommy's house". Don't know where we are gonna put it....point is, we're a family now - and no one's steppin in the middle of this one. We're both happy.
Ok... technically it's a 2 bedroom apartment adjacent to my dad's house but they have their own separate entrance and I'm renting it from him anyway. It would be totally different if he was some protective father figure that set rules or got in my business, but it's no different than renting from a landlord. He doesn't even come to my apt unless I call him. I always want him to though. He's the greatest And since I'm approaching 24 and this is the closest I've ever come to living with him in 18 yrs... it's not at all like living with a parent.
See... I couldve bitched about the 1000 other problems I have but they dont even seem to matter now that we have a home of our own.
If people still read live journal I'd ask for decorating opinions which are much much needed
