January 19th&20th:

Chris took Lilith for more coming of age paper work. Her drivers class start May 1st (all the feb class was full >.<) I went in a chatted with people at my old job and it was good to see everyone. :D

We did round two of going though the huge closet, found a lot more junk than anything. Stuff not really worthy to donate. So we recycled what we could the rest will be in the trash.

Dad gave me one of his old cell phones... not really sure why. I think he just didn't want to throw it out. He got a fancy new one. I also got Lilith a tablet for a surprise if she does well in her classes. It's a really cool art tablet and I kinda want to steal it. XD

Been arting for 8 hours everyday for a while now. I take breaks here and there to move around but it's all in my room. I feel guilty when I'm not working and truly enjoy working on my projects.

I'll be able to buy another page of commons on my alt soon. :D

Nommed on the most amazing Dim Sum last night. They made it SO good. And 6 different dishes for two people came to only $18! so I tipped the waitress more than I normally would. :D

Last night was eventful in the worst way. I got some kind of stomach bug, I felt fine for most of the day then I kept burping for no reason. The burps eventually turned into a puke fest. It only lasted 20 mins then I was feeling fine again.

It was really odd. I also have been smelling white wine for some reason all day. I don't know what's up with my system right now but I might finally cave and go to a doctors.

OH! and last Thursday when I had an appointment to get my taxes done their computers all dropped...So I had to make an appointment for next week with different location. Lucky I work from home else I'd be PISSED! XD

Moms B-day cake was a hit...I'm a dumb ass and forgot to take a picture of it. T.T

March 24th:

They say it takes on average 3 tries to leave a toxic relationship. That you'll often go back because it's what's comfortable to you AND that you'll always treat other people differently afterwards. What I'm doing right now is figuring out where we stand. Maybe if I read this enough times it'll finally get in my head what I need to do.

Reasons to stay!
  • History: We have a lot of history together. -good times and bad
  • Hobbies: We share similar hobbies and enjoy bouncing new creative ideas off each other and playing games together.
  • Willingness: I'm willing to work for a better future for us.

Mid-grade things that could fit in either but were originally in the good till I thought more about it
  • Transport: He takes me places - This was originally under stay, but Lilith starts driving lessons soon so... *shrugs*Plus theirs these things called a buses. Recently he told me I have to start "earning my rides" WTF does that even mean?
  • Friends: We share a friend group. - They think we're so happy. They ask how we never seem to fight or bicker (all of our friends are very open with their grievances toward each other to almost the point of embarrassment when we all get together) - if they only knew what was actually happening. :( I've learnt not to talk while with friends because he just talks over me anyway. If someone else says something funny. He becomes louder and tries to be funnier. It's so embarrassing so I just smile and nod while in the company of others.


Reasons to go!
  • Unadventurous - Boring sex out of marriage should be considered a crime. The only fun fantasies he's willing to chase are A-typical Male threesome bullshit. Which I have no interest in because this asshole doesn't even go down on me BUT he expects blow-jobs from two women. Fuck that! The only anal he'll consider is when he' s the top. Everything is about him. When he wants it. I'm so sick of it.
  • Disrespectful - They say if you want to know how man will end up treating you in the end look at his relationship with his mother. Are they close? If so in what way. Is he dutiful in taking care of her OR does he take advantage of her home and money. Sadly with him it's the later. He blames her for not being able to make his way in the world and often says horrible things about her. He does this to me already.
  • No money- As a single mom in all honesty this should have been a deal breaker from the start. I don't want to take care of two children (him and Lilith)
  • Entitled- He's brought to my attention numerous times that he'll have a good inheritance from his grandfather and parents. BUT when granddad got a girl friend (whom had been a close family friend for years before his grandma passed) EVERYONE was worried he'd spend all "their" "hard earned"inheritance. What a group of shit people. On top of that his mom and dad are also selling the house he somehow thought he'd be getting. He's been acting like a pissy little bitch ever since he found out.
  • Emotional abuse- Yesterday I woke up late. I often do when my period is starting because the blood loss takes a lot out of me. He yelled at me for half an hour while I was having cramps because I "promised" I'd clean his room. I was starting to get ready when he told me to "Just stay and do your fucking art" and slammed the door in my face and went to pout in the car. I cried because I realized then how little he feels about me working on my dream. Obviously cleaning his room for him is FAR more important. After about 10 mins I pinged him and said. "Don't get mad at me for doing what you told me to do"...we "text talked" and somehow I ended up at his place doing the bulk of his cleaning anyway while he fucked around and showed me all his dumb toys I've seen 20 times over. - This is only the most recent example of emotional abuse.
  • Physical Abuse - This is something that I thought I'd never have to deal with again after Kevin. What is is about being a short brown haired woman that attracts the crazy controlling fucks. Anyway. When I tried to get up from the bed the other day he grabbed me by the side and held me really tight. He dug his hand into my ribs and put an unbelievable amount of pressure on them. Like he was trying to break them. To the point where they feel like they're bruised on the inside today. He also has been doing this thing for a long time where he pretends he wants to be intimate and sweet. - He rubs my back then scratches HARD over any acne/black heads I have without warning. I've told him so many times to stop this to the point of I now HATE getting my back rubbed but he never listens to me. He continues. Sometimes to the point of holding me down while he does it. - It's sick.
  • Neglect - Lately, ever since I quit my job to focus on art. He's been neglecting to tell me things. Like I'm not important enough to know now that I'm not working. It's RIDICULOUS. He gets mad when I ask questions about his day or about what we're doing in the evening.
  • Children - He continues to want and push for this despite not having the money or patience to support them.

3 reasons to stay, 2 for "meh" and 8 for GET THE FUCK OUT! - Lovely.

So I'm finally swapping rooms with my daughter. We're already off to a good start. Got her closet done and swapped. We have a busy spring break ahead of us but she know, it'll be worth it. I'm hoping to get her side done by tomorrow night. It's only 3 dressers worth and it'll be fairly easy work.

To Do on Her side
  • Computer desks are up next
  • Her night table
  • Her second dresser

To Do on my side
  • All the things T.T

March 27th:

It's been a rough couple of days but I'm getting through it. Lilith's room is done and we've moved most of her things into it. Turns out she has got a lot of donation items as well as many things she wants sell. I told her this will be her first job and that she'll be earning money from anything she sells on Kijiji (whether it used to be mine or hers) . She's excited to start selling. It's looking great so far. :D

I have a pretty good idea on how I want things to turn out for the other room style wise. I have all the swatches picked out and both mom and Chris liked what they saw. We still have a few weeks worth of work ahead of us before we can proceed on the actual purchase. May is looking to be a VERY busy time for us. I somehow have to do this Between Key con and the Mene event. It's going to be Insanity! But I'm kinda good at bringing order into that sort of situation so I'm more excited than anything else.

We're quiet the team working mostly in the late evenings while grandma is asleep so she can't go through things we've already set for donate/sell...she's kind of a pack rat.

To Do on Her side
  • Take photos for Kijiji
  • Make a selling account

To Do on my side
  • Work on getting the donation items out.
  • Sort through old catalougued art
  • Get stuff packed for storage
  • work out the "when" details
  • clean corners no one knew about

We took most of the stuff for donations out today, I'm so exhausted.

I have a lot of things in storage tubs ready to go for whenever I get the green light to go on this. I still have a few things of jewelry and clothes to go through and put in bins. I need to plan this out carefully art schedule/ mene event/ convention wise.

Just keep making littler goals and keep my head up. Stop taking flak for doing things for people. It'll be OK.

Taking a break from the madness tonight. Going to see Beauty and the Beast with my kiddo, mom and Chris. . .ya writing shit out obviously didn't help me to leave him. I'm an idiot. . . maybe.

I found a bunch of scented candles I completely forgot I had. A good find for while I'm cleaning. I hate the smell of cleaning products and this unique mandarin and lilac scent is so nice. Paired it with some crazy viking metal and I got cleaning powa to last for days! XD
