a litttle over three weeks ago my mom calls me and tells me her boyfriend left her. she has noone for the kids, etc..."Can you come and stay with me, i need you" So Immediately I acquire the resources to go to Utah and help her. BIG MISTAKE...I'm up in utah for 3 days and i realize I shouldnt be there...I had nobody to take care of my son and because of that, I couldnt get a job. I was bored. I felt like if i had stayed, my life would go nowhere. Her boyfriend came back, and hes a dick as it is, but with me being there, letting him know he didnt have the authority to tell me what to do pissed him off. I've been independent since i was 16 and the ONLY time i'll do 'what I'm told' is when I'm working. Anyways...It was a mistake to be there so Im stuck there for 3 weeks until i can come back. Did i mention, my mother has been going to college for the past 14 yrs just to be a teacher? (she'll drop a class the second her GPA goes below a 4.0) This is WHY I've done my own thing for years. So, finally, Im back home. I can have my old job back and fix everything now. I'm starting college (online) on thhe 13th of this month and I'm going to Community for my emt courses next semester. I'm fixing everything one step at a time and I feel great for what i'm doing. I'm moving on with my life and I'm not going to let anybody fuck it up. not even me.
