I was going to say tongue in cheek damn them for dying.....but I don't know how recent this is, so I'll just say I'm sorry joanus, my family's alive but I'm pretty remote from them for obvious reasons stated above.  I know it's hard to feel alone.

Feel alone? My father was a perverted middle aged businessman, my mother was a coked up whore and my grandfather was a cantankerous old pervert who hated the fact that I was born and reminded me every day that I was halfbreed trash. With the exeption of my saint of a grandmother who died when I was three, I couldn't be happier.

That explains alot. You have a sort of aggression. 

A cool thing about being an adult- is that you can name your own terms in life. Yes it can be hard- and not everthing is fair.

Today is the first day of your life- [worn out but true]

You can do a whole lot;   that you dont know you can do.

I would be a terrible parent. Why? Cos I am selfish.

Oh well, try to view the glass as half full rather then  half empty. I better shut up now. ^ ducks ^

I dont really have too many complaints about my family. My mom and I get along great as long as we live at least 4 hours apart and only see each other once a month. Anytime we have to be in a house together for more than 2 days the screaming starts though. My Sir hates my family. Well, no he doesnt, but he hates the fact that I turn into a compleatly different person whenever they are around. They are all southern baptists, and I have a hard time showing any sort of affection in front of them, so Im always pulling away from him when they are around. Which is always cause I live on the same property as my grandparents and three great uncles. They also are really bad about "volunteering" me to do things. They will invite 40 people over for a party and then just "Assume" I will host it and do all the cooking and cleaning. In fact my mother has "informed" me that she is coming this weekend to babysit for me so I can clean my front porch because it needs to be clean before thanksgiving because there will be people here. IO love where I live because it is a great neighborhood for my UMs. Its safe for them to play outside and they have cousins thier own age to play with, but having eldery reletives SO close and they are SO nosy...it really sucks sometimes. If a car pulls up in my yard after dark they will call or walk over to see whats going on. I cant scream in my bedroom without them calling (the houses are only 15 feet apart at one corner)...I cant have parties here because of them. They just walk into my house whenever they feel like it. And I cant lock the door because they all have a key. Not too long ago I was not feeling well and had stayed in bed in the morning. My 7 yo was in the living room watching cartoons and my husband had taken the babies somewhere. Because I didnt answer the door, they walked on in, and when the 7yo said I was still in bed they walked right into my bedroom and sat down. In fact my grandmother complained that I didnt have a chair for her to sit on in my bedroom. Luckily my bedroom was clean, but it isnt always, what if there had been whips and other "toys" left out from the night before?? gads.

The aggression helps, but money would be better.

Yeah I can do alot but there are not a lot who will pay for it, plus a lot of it is illegal in the US.

I would be a great parent because I have had such good examples of how to be a bad parent.

Sorry if I insulted you Laurell but I didn't live to the ripe old age of 20 (I'll be 21 next month, BOOZE! ) by being soft. When your as hardened as I am the pitty bounces off along with the insults.

I'm going to suggest to you that you need to find a way to deal with the hardness and learn to reincorporate emotion in your life in order to have balance.  I've been there.  You can't keep that crap inside forever, it's going to come out in some way you don't want eventually.  You didn't ask for what happened to you, find a way to let it go and live again without the hardness and aggression.

That is a tuff one. I had issues with my life but for other reasons. I did not find peace till I was around age 40. Still one trades off abit of their health for assets- if one is lucky.  Even in my 30s finances were tight. Not that I am rolling in the dough now. But I am not too concerned about  roof overhead.  [I am but I am not]  It sure beats renting or having a room mate- where life is a grind.

In my case I went for the kill stategcailly.  You always find folks who want out NOW. Well if you bite- you can score cheap. The trick is being in the right place at the right time..and being able to back up any thing you sign.

The neighbor says her rent is cheap that is should run $550. Well if that place is worth $550, then this is worth more. But it not just know at the door. I worked my contacts- was bold- and determined. I know if I did not I would be sleeping on friends couches which is no way to live. So I sorta moved in before I owned the place. I had a signed contract- and my brother on standby if the mortgage fell thru.

So- if any advice- not that anyone is asking- but work smart- not hard. Thats the key.

With any luck I will improve the value here- which once I do- maybe I can go to the boonies, tho I wont give the place away.

Figure out the system. What you need to do to score- make a plan- and do it.

Dont have people in your life that will pull you down. RUN from them.

I am terrible at working by the hour. I am a complet fkk off. But when I get a brillient idea- I run with it.

Hopefully I can stay the course.

Rent is only $550! Holy crap shoot thats expensive mine is $400 a month and Im the only one who pays for his rent.(everyone else is either scaming welfare or someone else is paying for them) A the apartments in my town are for low income. But even still I try to be the perfect tenant, I pay on time and with the exeptions of a few bullet holes and the occasional revenge fueled drive-by on my apartment, I'm one of the best renters living in this hellhole.

My complaint is this. Wether our family gets along, wether we are feuding, pouting, screaming, or just purely mad as hell, I know without a shadow of a doubt, underneath it all............we all love one another tremendously. Hugs, kisses, and "I love you"s are given freely, and more importantly, they come from the heart.

It really sucks to have to complain like that about them.

I have no complaints about my family.  Pretty lucky like that, I have two wonderful supportive parents.  And siblings that all get along for the most part.

$550 is expensive to me as well. At that rate- thats is all one could ever afford. If you can fix things- mayby try to buy.  FHA allows 3% down. Even at that a seller can "gift" an amount so as to get financed.[it isnt actually a gift..]  If 3% is impossible- do a search on "family savings account" - one saves for 2 years and they match what you put in. [tho for buying house fixing it up, school or a business]

Then on the other hand if the place is dangerous- maybe owning isnt the best idea.  Also- there are a ton of forclosures. Here is where the net is a tool. You can scoop what is going on locally in housing. The neighbors think I was sudden when I bought this foreclosure. But I was eyeing the place before it was listed locally. It was listed out of town before.

$400 can easily be a house note in many areas. If the town is sliding down-  then buying is a bad idea. but if it is stable then it could be good. Either way one pays.  Being that you survived Iraq, I would guess you can handle house repairs.

my parents are to celebrate (HA!) their silver anniversary this month, my dads 50th is tomorrow, and christmas is just round the corner. why did my mum pick this time after about 30 years of them being together (yes they have only been married 25, I can add up) to threaten yet another divorce saying my dad is insecure when obviously he is insecure when she is such a major flirt and she cheated on her fist hubby to be with my Dad? and then goes away last week to a hotel for two days apparently alone, who can say, just to make him freak out with worry?
why did my grandmother have to die when my grandfather is still alve the rotting old carcass that he is, and why did they have to wifeswap with my god parents and why did i have to find out about it at the age of 8, and why oh why did i have to look in one of their drawers when I was round the same age and find all those catalogues - they are my grandparents for christs sakes
and has all this made me the kinkster i am today? who knows
why did my younger brother have to have the first grandchild of my parents when it should have been me, and why is he on his third child with yet another girl, who is only just 19, and why does he use my parents for a place to stay cos he cant get a job, yet is out drinking and smoking like theres no tomorrow, and mum gives ME a hard time for having a hangover every blue moon? why do they fall for his lies every time and continually take him back in, the user he is, when at the age of 24 he should be able to keep a job for more than a week
ARRRGHHH

Well lets see, this is tons of fun but I am not having a good day and maybe a vent will do me some good..... I was the second child born into a loveless marriage you see my parents were together solely because my mother acted upon an ignorant impulse. So my mother being the eldest of the girls in her family thought always that the eldest is the first to do everything period, end of story, that is just how it is. The day her younger sister came home saying she was engaged my mother harped on my father and being that they grew up in rural texas and this was the late 60's early 70's and they were young my father proposed my granny and grandpa agreed and they were married. Okay folks so what comes after marriage I mean we all know the lame song we learned in kindergarten....a baby carriage.... Yes so my aunt was married as well at this point and she was also pregnant so my mother thought it high time to try her hand out at pregnancy and motherhood, and so my parents concieved my sister..... Lucky her..... My parents literally hated one another though my father had his pride and they were going to stay married because you just did not divorce..... So they stayed together through all of the bad times and my mother had every intention of never having another child simply getting my sister through school and then leaving my father. Well one night for some god forsaken reason unbeknownst to any of us when my sister was 12 they decided I suppose to try the loving husband a wife act and guess what..... They concieved lucky little ole me.... woo-fucking-hooo! And so this was their shot they were going to try and do things right this time..... It was doomed from the start. You see the Dr's told them I was to be a boy and my father was over joyed, well guys guess what I was, am, and always will be a girl.... Yeah so he hated me from the moment I slid into this world until the day he was yanked out.... Once I was born my mother tried her very best to take care of me, and my father provided not well, but provided nonetheless, because he would not allow my mother to work. He was an alcoholic abusive worthless excuse for a man..... In my eyes my mother was/is a saint, she took care of me kept me from recieving a punishment (more like beating from hell) from my father, she taught me to read, she loved me no matter what, even the day she discovered my 5 foot long mural in crayolas behind her sofa...... I clung to my mother she was my sanity and my happiness. My sister moved out when she was 16 to live with my aunt and uncle, she was married by 19.... And my entire world came crashing down around my tiny 7 year old body the day my momma died....... My father decided I was too much of a chore, and he hired a nanny to raise me he was never home he was always out drinking I rarely saw him for the next year...... When he finally started to come around he had met some woman whom he told me was to be my new mommy....bullfuckingshit and over my dead body!!!...... I met her, and she was nice, she just did not need to be anywhere near me or my mothers home! Well they married and began living together in my mothers home, and she became the reason I recieved the one physical beating I ever got from my father.... I was black and blue back to knees.... He refused to stop because I refused to cry..... Amazingly adult of him right?..... I could not sit, I did not go to school for over a week, I was miserable, and I hated her, she was no better than he...During the course of their marriage I was sexually abused by one of their friends a man in his late 40's and my father talked about it to everyone(I hated him)..Physically abused by both of them, mentally and verbally abused like no other..... What an amazing duo they were..... Of course their marriage too was doomed from the start, you see she was but a gold digger and wanted him because when she met him he was throwing money around like there was no tomorrow...... And so when the days came of him drinking away the money to pay the bills with things between them were strained.... Finally the day came when she left just like I knew she would..... And he fell even deeper into his drinking..... We were evicted from the home I grew up in.... I was 14 and so lost..... My Aunt, not the one who spurred my mothers itch to marry but her baby sister and best friend in the world, took me in and finished raising me. My father died when I was 16 the day before my junior year of high school, I flew home to attend his funeral and collect my parents things, you see by now my sister had a life of her own and absolutely refused communication with our stepmother.... She had things like both sets of my parents wedding rings, their matching diamond watches and bracelets, my moms Christmas tree skirt...... Although she left him they never divorced, and so she controlled it all..... Well she refused me anything of his or of theirs and because of their marriage I have no claim...... I celebrate Christmas every year wishing for my mothers tree skirt, I would love to have their wedding rings just to remind me of them, but I have nothing, and so that is my family.....

I know that was long as all hell but I started typing and it just kinda flowed from my fingers.... Sorry if your eyes are burning now....
