[QUOTE="PennyFromTheBlock, post: 677813, member: 18271"] I can do this, I can do this, I can do this. Good: he told me when he got off work yesterday that he is going to be able to get an apartment there next month. In mama mode, I asked "so, do they discount it for you? do they take half and half of the rent out of your checks? how will that work?" and his response is "I don't know". I just shut up, because it's not my problem (only, my fear is, depending on how they do this- I KNOW what he will do- which is come to me- now, having said that, I don't have the money to help him - but it'll be the histronics that go along with requests of that nature. THAT is what I'm not looking forward to dealing with- upon my 'no' - it'll be "oh, so I'm just supposed to be homeless with my baby and live in my car?". Bad: this morning, I asked him if he would clean out my fridge- I've done something horrible to myself (my back) and bending is torture (I have a dr appointment 2/8)- so he does- no big deal. Then he was talking about doing antifreeze in his car today- or something- so I mention to ensure none of it gets on my driveway- that I rent here, and I (lied) and told him my lease prohibits any type of car work- and what does he do, argue. So finally I say "ok son" and go back to watching TV- and he KEEPS on about how I keep on- when I had STOPPED- so I said "son, I said ok, the conversation is over"- he just wouldn't shut his mouth. What is so hard for me is that he has "pockets" of being 'normal'. moments he knows how to act, knows how to have a conversation, knows how to be NICE. I know this weekend is going to suck so much- he doesn't have the baby this weekend (which preoccupies him) so it's just the two of us here. I'M SO SICK OF HIM BEING HERE. I PRAY that they get him in an apartment on the 1st. [/QUOTE]
