Enough is Enough

I literally just had a melt down emotionall.  I know NoJoMo is going on and I like ot have open entries this month.  However Nathan and I are just frustrated by our parents and trying to take care of our family please them.

It is just too much.  We know what we are doing and have goals and plans.  I am tired because we our parents are passing judgment without know the whole picture.  The thing is they do not need to be privy to EVERY detail of our lives.  I would hope they woudl love us and be supportive and trust that we are adults and can make good solid decisions.

Hell I am 37 and have gotten along this far.  If I can pick myself up after being raped, If I can find love again after an abusive marriage, I think I got a good handle on life.  I haven’t let those huge obstacles take me down.  I sure won’t let anything else.

I love my parents and nathans so very much.  I appreciate them but at the same time need them to see me as a grown woman and not the little girl I once was.

I can’t go into it much more right now, because I am a huge ball of tears. 

Oh and i need to apply some cream to a hideous rash I got on my breasts due to an allergic reaction to the meds I have been on due to all the dental work.  This rash is so freaking uncomfortable it isn’t even funny!!!

Wow. I could have written the exact same thing. My family, no my MOTHER… can not seem to grasp that I’ve been completely on my own for 7 years now and I’m just fine. We had a very frustrating weekend with them 2 weeks ago. She’s incredibly emotionally needy and I am not. And that’s just the tip of the iceburg of issues that have been emerging lately.

I’m so sorry that you’re going thru this…and now that I’m a parent of adult kids, it’s really hard sometimes to just bite my tongue when they make decisions that I know aren’t the best…but I try…it’s not easy but they’re adults now. If they ask for my opinion I will give it to them but I try my best not to just tell them what they should do or not do…hugs to you…
