Then, grandchild moves in, too. This after I was alone for almost two years. I am not used to the noise yet, and it's been over 2 years now. <br />Grandchild goes to college, comes home for a long weekend, dirty laundry in tow, gets pissed off at Mom because she is monetarily tapped out, and insists on going back to college the very next day. No job, no prospects of helping with the monetary situation at school, but at least he gets 3 meals a day on his "plan" and has a bed to sleep in.<br />Will peace ever return? I'm beginning to doubt it.<br />The reason Mom was tapped out monetarily was due to having to buy all the school supplies, including a super duper backpack, plus sheets, etc. Has Dad, commonly known only as Sperm Donor,ever offered a cent to help? Never!!!!!<br />Just sayin'...<br />JEJimmie Earlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06117301181626973474noreply@blogger.com
