Posted by Wauchula Woman on 9/8/2007, 9:14 pm, in reply to "Ooh! Ooh! So how did the week go ...." My nice...well, I don't even want to talk about her right now. It's been rough. I don't know how she is doing in school. I never see her crack a book. She's trashed her room upstairs. She doesn't help me with housework or anything. She spends most of her time, locked in her room with the shades drawn like a vampire or something. I really didn't count on it being like this. I'm trying really hard with her though. I just expected she would be more like a grown up at 19. When I was her age, I'd already been married for a year and bought my first house. I had been working for 4 years. She won't find a job, she's relying on her parents to send her money, plus she eats our food and uses our electricity. She spent all her money and had hot checks out that I had to cover and I drew my account down so low, I still haven't gotten paid, so I don't have any money. She's irresponsible, lazy, won't lift a finger to wash a dish. Here's some pics I took of her room yesterday, I e-mailed them to my sister to show her what her daughter had done to my house: Dirty dishes are all over the place up there: The tub hasn't been cleaned for months and if you don't turn off the faucet good, it leaks. This rust stain was not there when she moved in, so she's ruined the tile. And then there is the rest of the bathroom: Honestly, I don't know what to do with her. I just try not to think about it too much. Take Care,

at this board. I get online and check my e-mails and answer my e-mails and I forget to come here. My job is a good job. I work Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. It's really creepy though, it turns out that my boss lady was the one that found my dad when he died. It's a long story, but when my dad died, he just fell over dead out by our barn near the highway. Well, my boss lady and her husband were driving by and they saw him and stopped....they were the ones that called 911 and attempted to give him CPR. Now, what are the odds, that I would start a job, in a town 25 miles from my home, with the State of Florida, in a place where there are 500 or so employees and I would get as a boss, the person that found my dad dead? And we never knew who it was that called 911. I even put a letter in the newspaper thanking them and saying I didn't know their names. That was 6 years ago. And so when she was training me, she asked me if I was kin to anybody with my same last name that lived on that highway. And I said I was kin to all of them, that I lived there too. And she started telling me about finding my dad and asked me if I knew him. I said "That was my dad." Anyway, after that, I could barely concentrate on my training, it was such a shock. And even weirder still, the day I started...well that would have been my parents 50th wedding anniversary. So it's almost like the Twilight Zone or something. Just real strange.
