It’s been over a month since my 3 bed, 2 bath apartment was my own. From the time school ended, we have had “family” in our home. One set I don’t mind; they pull their own weight and can be considered responsible. The other set, supposedly, wants a better life for their family but puts forth no effort.
2.5 months of one individual family member living with us and nothing to show. No car. Nothing saved up. No idea on permanent plans. Constantly staying in their bedroom. Minimal socializing. Wife cares more about $350+ eyebrow shaping than the prosperity of her household. He finally got a second job a week ago when it was supposed to happen a month ago. Yeah, he looks like shit now. Hard work is a bitch, but maybe it will pay off.
I miss my home being mine. I miss walking around in a t-shirt, no bra, and without shorts or comfy pants. I miss mid afternoon sex on the couch or during the kids’ quiet time when my husband is off. I miss not having to hear a child cry forever because a parent leaves her side. I miss my kids actually listening to me. I miss my vehicles (both of them) being at mine and my husband’s disposal 24/7. I miss the simple meals I could cook, not worrying if they were gonna come out and eat, if it was enough food, or their kids were gonna eat. Their kids only eat like 4 foods, if you are lucky.
But for now, looks like I have another fucking month of this before it’s back down to just one family member staying with us again.
I can’t wait.
