So, I'm sitting in the office on Thursday alone. Hadn't put any make up on because I didn't have any appointments.
D21 face times me. Great.
I answer and she is sitting with a room full of people and my mom and my little nephew who is 6 months old and I haven't met yet.
My mother sees me and exclaims, "My God you look terrible!"
Well... Mom. Yep, I do. I have been living in a pressure cooker for nearly a year, parenting alone without any help from you. I'm tired and my skin has broken out dealing with the stress.
It didn't really impact me until later after talking to D21 and hearing how they are judging me about my continued homeschooling of D12 and how I want to move to Asheville.
I felt angry. If you don't want to help, fine... BUT, Don't judge me. I may feel differently about staying here if I had help to get D12 into school. But, I don't. And, according to the special ed teacher/tutor I can barely afford, I'm doing the right thing by continuing to homeschool.
Anyway, needed to let that off my chest here, as opposed to ripping my mother's face off.
