I am a mother failure. My daughter wants to have nothing to do with me and change her name back to her birth name and my son, spouse and I just had a terrible fight. I feel like I such at this parenting thing and that I really don't understand the whole thing about them growing up and yet still looking for us to provide and clean. In their eyes they are doing their fair share. In my eyes they do nothing. I have to really get a better attitude so I can help my son and his girlfriend feel more welcomed and at ease. As much as I get mad at them for their inconsiderate behavior, they come right back at us with how we don't like how they do things and they did sweep etc. Man it's hard stuff.

On a good note I got my bunny hutches moved today by my friend who brought us hay. They are monster cages. He then scraped the lower driveway so the manure was gone and so that the driveway is hopefully grated better so water doesn't runinto my garage.

babies are happy with their moved cages and so is mommy.

Hard times when weekends are the only times we can get things done.

I hate living with this kind of stress. My son gets angry with my daughter because when one of the dogs has an accident she won't clean it up. She can't, she has ocd. It is pretty complicated.

We have agreed to start on a new note and move on.
