They were $100 short on the electric and between the two of them they haven't come up with it yet. I have anxiety and one of my triggers is loud voices/lots of people talking at once. The 4 kids that come over to stay with my brother all have developmental issues and they all talk over each other, at full volume. When my speakers are crackling with Kyo screaming and I can still hear them it's not good. My idiot brother just goes out back and smokes while playing games on his phone. The sewing is thankfully an easy pattern, just needs size adjustments since it starts at 6 and BB is maybe a 2. She and her friend are going as steam punk red riding hood twins. The other costume is going to be walolita, which is basically a hakama with frilly trim and a short skirt under it. I already got her stockings to go with it and I can make the trim out of scraps from remnants of the other costume tops. I'm getting a break in Nov, going to LA to see Dir en Grey XD Dang, I was hoping he'd have come to terms with that but I guess he's not ready. I'll keep my fingers crossed that he doesn't spiral too far out. I should be able to send some books your way after I get paid in Nov. Costuming, con tickets, and my trip are pretty much tapping me out financially. I'm working on some Halloween bunny's to put in my etsy to try and get a little bit coming back in. Life is just too expensive these days
How have they not gotten it together yet? Are they even trying? Sorry about the kids. I can see why that would be troublesome for you. Extremely troublesome. Your brother needs to step up. Sorry...developmental issues or not does not give the child the right to be a little jackass. Just that simple in my book. And yeah...if they can be heard over KYO of all people screaming...then theres a problem. The outfits sounds adorable. I'd love to see your finished pieces. I'm sure they will be perfectly lovely. I wish I was going too T-T But sadly I can not T-T Sucks. I want to see them again so bad. So very very bad. -@ Kyo. XD And no worries. I didn't message about the books. I trust you to send them when you can. I just wanted to check in and see how things were since the last time we talked. As for my nephew...he's already spiraled out to a point he can't take back. It's why I don't want to talk to him. But I have too. Honestly...he's probably one of the people that physically makes me ill just thinking about right now. And yeah...life is expensive T-T Too expensive.
Last week was their older sons bday and if they had gotten the power on they wouldn't have had money to replace the groceries or get him anything. I call bullshit but that's just me and yes, they are little jackasses. I should have everything in order to move across country by the end of this school year and it can't happen soon enough. I haven't seen them yet and the NY show sold out. I'm avoiding Chicago because I have family up there and if I don't go, they can't say I should have let them know I was in their area lol. Just cousins but still easier to just avoid people. I just need to get the books gone through but not a lot of down time lately. Even now I'm crocheting while messaging. *sigh* Family, can't live with 'em, can't shoot 'em. Sounds like you need a day to just tell the world to go fuck itself too.
I call bullshit with you. Sorry but that's just idiocy there. They need to get their acts together. And congrats about the move! I'm happy for you. Seems like that's all working out at least. Nothing wrong with multitasking. It gets more done that way. And it will help you get your order done sooner. At least you found a concert you can go too. I can't go to any of them this year. I spent all my savings after i quit my job so I have no money so you'll have to enjoy him for both of us XD. Take your time with the books. Well...you can shoot them...just have to make sure you don't get caught or don't kill them. I tell the world that every day. It doesn't listen. XD
I'm so looking forward to being on the opposite coast of my family. As well as starting school out there. It's just going to be a fresh start for the three of us, BB of course but my oldest is going with. Hoping to start therapy out there and get the ball rolling on that. As I'm almost done with the part I've been crocheting my niece and her baby come in to chat -_- Some days I love some of my family, some days I wish I was Batman. For me the trip is as much about seeing the live as it is taking some time to just breathe and be me. When I went to NY last year it was just amazing, even if it was less than 48 hr. Another reason for going to LA instead of say the Washington show, I want to get a feel for CA. The other show there would be closer to where I'm moving but come on, it's LA. ... And now my daughter is calling so that's an hour tied up
I can tell and I wish all of you the best. I'm sure you three will love it. School will be fantastic for you and I hope things go well for your oldest. Give them my best. It really does seem like you have it all under control. But if you ever just need someone to rant at, feel free to shoot a note. This goes for your kids too. Always happy to lend an ear to a friend. Ahh batman. If we were all so lucky T-T. As for the concert. I'm sure it will be just what you need. I think you picked a good spot to go too. It may not be the closest to where you are going to live, but it's still in the area and you can still have a lot of fun without weighing your mind with moving stuff while you are trying to take a breather.
Thanks, I'm just hoping that I can pull it off this summer. I was set and had almost $1000 saved towards it then child support put a lien on my account and took it all and then some. They can't touch it coming in because my only income atm is survivors benefits from social security. I love having to pay my ex to 'raise' our daughter because he would have killed me if I took her in the divorce and he meant it literally. The only down side to being Batman would be having my parents dead, them I like, most of the time. My dad is overly religious and has a biblical view of the LGBT community so from time to time I want to Gibbs smack him. I won't start on my brother because him I'm ready to physically hurt lately, just on principle. For the concert, I'm trying to figure out how I'm paying for the trip itself. With all the birthdays and then the con this weekend I can't afford to get my plane ticket like I was planning. I'll have to do that and the hotel out of my check in a couple weeks and that's going to mean someone else has to help with groceries. Either that or see if one of my parents can put one of those things on a credit card and I'll give them half when they do and the other half in Nov. Being paid once a month really sucks
Did you manage to pull it off? Or are you still working towards it? It sucks that you have to pay for all this. Your ex sounds like a dickhead. No offense. Is your daughter at least safe with him? I hope so. Well...that would be a problem if you like your parents. Hmm...well...maybe Iron Man? Nah...his parents are dead too. Uhm...Thor! His parents...well...for the most part they're alive. I mean...Odin is...and well...Sure Freya was slaughtered...but as she's from Vanaheim I'm not sure she can actually be killed. Did all the planning for the concert and the cons work out? I hope they did. If it did, how was the trip? Did you manage to check out the area you wanted too? Did your parents help you out? And how are your kids? I hope you all had a great christmas. I'm sorry it took so long to answer, I had a bit of a mental break down again. But yeah...hope all is well for you.
