Ex- h felt the need to come to the store and share his side of the feud with son.
Nothing changed... the version he gave me and the text messages son received do not match. Daughter 17 was working with me that day. As he walked in, to her surprise, she asked why he came. He answered: to say Hi! Is your mother here?"
She said:"yes, in the back"
He walked straight over.chatted with me for at least 20 min then walked right pass daughter 17 with a " bye, gotta go"
No hug, no i love you, nothing...

Daughter 14 got ortho put in not long ago. Ex- h, clueless on the procedure, went to the office and paid half of my balance owing $1750.00 from him, 1500.00 covered by insurance and $1250.00 by me as a deposit.leaving me with 500.00 left to pay. I texted a thank you but that is what his child support was for.he replied" no, support is for cost of living, not cosmetic. Also, you have covered the other 2 on your own, this is our last and i want to do this for her".
Good, really good and then, evil

Daughter 21, lives 4 hours away from here. She asked if i could go pick them up and celebrate Canada Day as family ( including her future mother-in-law who was alone(husband workung) with a broken car. I agreed. I worked a 6am to 3pm, left at 4 and got to her place at 9. They chatted until 12h30am. In the morning, we came back, picked up furure MIL and invited son and girlfriend over for supper. After supper, drove to Timmins to see Keith Urban, watched amazing fireworks and got back home at 2am. I had to place an order by 8am therefor, needed to go in by 7.
Ex-h was suppose to come and take the kids for lunch or supper. Instead, shout off his phone and answered daughter21 at 5pm.apologizing and saying it was a lazy day for them cause they went out and got drunk the night before. She answered" well, i' m leaving tomorrow morning so bye".

Now, me: i am having a nervous breakdown.
I am running on 4 to 5 hour sleep while working at 6am and chasing my kids in the middle of the night. Last night, i lost it and so did daughter 17. At 2am, we yeld at one another. I was so hurt and angry from her words. According to her, my job as a parent is to cook, clean and give them everything they need. No carefew, no rules as long as they be good. She booked a full week off from work and gives her ahift away unless she wants money. None of them help around the house with chores nor take care of their pets.. I told D17 that my job as a parent was to raise them to be responsable, independant and strong not to pick up after them and give them everything!!!

On my lunch today, i got both of them out of bed and demanded to gave their room cleaned before i got back home. I pointed out that :This was my duty as a parent. At 3pm, 80% of their rooms were clean.nothing else around the house was done. BUT both of them are home. They did not go hang out.

Managing the store on a full time schedule and managing 3 teens in a full sunmer schedule is taking it' s toll on me. Every summers are like this. I hate to do this to my boss again but i see no other options. I will crash if i don' t.
I will have to take the summer off once again. My son will be settleing in his apartement Aug.1st in Timmins.

My health.. well, chest pain and anxiety. Shaky and burnt out..

Tad story has convinced me to get checked which i will do by next monday.promess..
