Well, besides her and the kids moving back in which added to the chaos that already was this apartment? Hmm...yesterday I got frustrated with her son and that took a toll on me. I also did a lot of work around the house the other day...cooking and helping with the kids. I was a space cadet by bed time.

She's being understanding of my limits and respecting me when I tell her that I'm "overloaded" and need a break. Which is all I ever wanted from her.

To answer your question, no, I wasn't able to handle it when there was only 6 people here lol. We are working on getting out on our own again. That would require her to get steady income. We have a plan.

I'll keep you up to date.
