People feared this would happen. I don't know the full situation of you doing their housework, but you don't have to. Remember that. Yes, you are living there, but paying rent as well.
Try and sit down with Jessi and Joe and talk it out. Maybe explain your feelings. It's called burnout, and it can be very bad, physically and mentally. School is zooming toward us, try and take some time to enjoy yourself.
You aren't Super-Jon. You can't make EVERYBODY happy. realise that and settle for at least making yourself happy. Because you have to be happy before you can make others happy.
I've noticed the change, you seem... moodier. Constantly, like in Lawrence. I realise now it's just the early stages of burnout.
No, I'm not paying rent. Housework is the rent. I've not paid dime one. Can't afford to.
It's not the housework that bothers me, really. I mean, it's easy work that I can get done with quickly and relax. It's the Target work that is killing me. I'll go into more detail on that in a bit. I need a better job, one with less dependancy upon others and more focus on individual effort.
No, I'm not Super-Rhino nor did I ever claim to be. But I gave my word to all and that means I am obligated to get things done.
also, if you don't mind my asking, who's the people who feared this would happen?
Hell, I do less work here then I had to do at my parent's place and for a great deal less shit slung in my direction. (case in point, what my Mom tried to pull today, but I digress)
I don't remember who all stated, but the thought of you working yourself like this was mentioned when you started moving in. i'm not talking down on anyone, I'm just expressing concern that you aren't taking on more than you can. Overfilling your plate, so to speak.
I'd appreciate it if I wasn't getting torn a new on for expressing this concern.
Your comments read as if it was a culmination of housework and work work that was getting to you.
As for giving your word, as times change, sometimes it is necessary to review your "word" and somtimes you cannot help but to end or change it. In life you have to prioritize and figure out what you can do and what needs t be sacrificed. That's your call, and in most areas your ass has cashed more than enough checks to be sufficient, I think. ; D
Anyway, take care of yourself, is the bottom line.
It's okay. Maybe I read it wrong, saw it as blasting. but like I said, the thoughts expressed weren't a "that's going to go bad" kind of thought. It was more of a "hope jon knows what he's doing, doesn't overdo it" thought.

Seriously, talk to them.

That's is what makes finding a job difficult, knowing that in 2 months, my availability goes to shit. Most places won't stand for that.
