PSA: Parents. Please do not emotionally manipulate your children.

They will grow up completely untrusting with a general sense of sadness and guilt.

Manipulation includes:

– “I just wish [something passive aggressive involving your child]”

– “You do whatever you want to do.” and then getting mad when they make the “wrong” choice

– Not believing them when they tell you something someone did or said to them, including their friends, your friends, family members, or even you

– Doing something shitty and then pretending you didn’t in hopes they’ll forget?

– Getting upset when they open up to you. About anything. Even if it’s something angering or disappointing. Don’t show them it’s dangerous or counterproductive to talk to you.

– Making them feel bad for the friends/significant others they choose, career path (or lack thereof), school choice (or lack thereof), gender/sexuality (or lack thereof) literally anything that either they didn’t choose or that they would be miserable without

– Do NOT EVER UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES pressure them to talk to you about personal things.

– Kids do not owe their parents anything. They did not choose to be born. You chose to get pregnant/chose to carry to term/chose to raise a baby (even if you didn’t choose all of these things, you at least chose one) under the assumption that you would love this child no matter what.

this post means so much to me.

Dying to finish this when I have time… it’ll probably change a lot, though… 

Less dead, but still not quite alive. Got the office more or less set up last night, doing the bedroom tonight. Maintenance staff fixed the apartment issues right away (first time this has EVER happened in an apartment for me), and I love the place so far. It’s so cute and cozy. I’ll take photos once we’re unpacked and maybe decorated a bit.  

The cats have adjusted, too, though they’re doing that meowing-all-night thing again… trying to get me up so that they can follow me around the apartment like kitty-ducklings. 

“Last Day” of moving is tomorrow… mostly because we now have no car and renting another uhaul is wiping out every last cent that we had left. It’s mostly packing up dishes, my craft room, and misc while getting the donation stuff ready for Wednesday morning pickup.

I can’t wait for this to all be over, though. So tired. 

BUT!!! I have gotten back into the “getting up at 7am to write with Cori” routine, so that is happy. Novel is currently at 60k, and will probably get to 90 before I’m “done” – then it’ll be time to take it to the cutting room floor to cull the nonsense and get it to around 75k at the end- that’s approximately 300 paperback novel pages, fyi.

Ugh I love my stupid book. And characters. And premise. I want it to be a movie already so I can watch it. LOL.

I hope this becomes his new favorite place because it’s cute!

I intend to refurbish it as a cat house, so yes, let’s hope so! Fresh paint or wall paper, cardboard for scratching, some sisal rope… 😀 

maybe I can find some wallpaper with fishes on it! 

The rest of the DVDs are gone and the game collectors in the area swooped in like rabid vultures for the video games. Sorry, guys! All I have left are books, laserdiscs, and vinyl records (plus a million dishes). Probably toys, too, but I don’t even know. 

I’ll try to get a photo of the books at some point but otherwise I think that’s it!

dead on my feet

omg 

yard sale tomorrow 

bringing the dishes to new house

then will pass out

until monday morning

omg

wait i have to take the cargo van back *sos* 

I just woke up in the new apartment! Ah, what a view.

All of our furniture and a great deal of our boxes have been moved! There’s still so much to do, but we’ve made great progress and there’s light at the end of the tunnel!

Thank you again, everyone, for your support and generous contributions. This definitely would NOT have been possible without you.
