Not If He Came Gold Plated!

[WenikiTiki]

Well what a goat rope. The people never showed, my realtor called the other agent and he said he had sent he an email cancelling. So I worked from 8 this morning to 3 this afternoon. When I got the call yesterday for the showing I had just pulled 10 boxes of Christmas decorations down from the attic.

My DIL came over and vacuumed the whole house, including the huge lanai, it took her 3 hours. I mopped all the floors then, and had been getting decorations out and the boxes put away. And all the million other little details you must attend to when showing a house. (You know hiding the toothbrushes and making it seem like actual people don't live in the house.)

So my youngest son found out that the people were a no-show, and he started ranting away about the waste of his day. And I hung up on his dumb little self. I really don't know where he is going to live when I move from here. But not with me.

He took 6 hours to clean his 300 sf room. And called in sick to work, because it was so stressful having to clean his room..... I am starting to think he is the most immature about to turn 23 year old I know. And according to all around me it is all my fault.

Which kind of ticks me off. I was a self starter, I was independant and I was eager to be on my own and to pay my own bills and run my own life. I don't know what I was supposed to do different with him. My X always wanted to give the kids everything his parents had given him. Wich was way more than my parents gave me. But now I have an adult son who acts like a spoiled 16 year old.

And his anger and cussing and hitting and breaking things scares me and puts me straight into anxiety mode. When he griped at me about the house showing gone wrong, all I could think was how can he not see that I was just as irritated as he was. I tried to be upbeat and said that well at least we would be ready for the two showings on Friday. And that got me more nastiness. So I hung up on him.

And I guess I need to DB him. Or get him to DB me?!? He should at least treat me with as much respect as he would a stranger. And that is what I'm going to ask him to do.....

So thank you all for letting me vent!
