Mama Drama
My mom's all pissed off at me again. Apparently for being argumentative and disrespectful.
I decided, after I moved out of her house this last time, that I would not back down from her anymore. And I'm not going to. She doesn't believe that she is controlling, doesn't believe that the things she says to me, the things she does, are controlling. But they are. She thinks I make it about control, and she's just going about her business.
She's wrong. I'm not backing down, but she's not either. I'm tired of being the one to give in all the time. Not just to her, but everything. That's the nature of life when you are powerless and penniless, but it's galling. So, in these small things, I'm not giving in. However, it means my mom has decided to stop talking to me.
We'll see how long it lasts this time.
There was a time that I would be torn to pieces about being away from Cheyenne. But if I came out of my mother's house basically okay, then Chey probably will, too. Also, she's growing up to be a brat, and I'm kind of beginning to think her and mom deserve each other.
That's horrible, isn't it? She doesn't know any better, she's only 9.
Hopefully she learns. With or without me.
