We have started a new job position (head apartment maintenance) that has been very stressful, like learning to rebuild appliances and AC's and doing it in 2 weeks time on our own. 2 times work load over normal.

Our 19 yr son's britches have over grown his mouth....and he's been evicted. Our bipolar meds aren't working. Us and the dog are moving to a new apartment in 2 weeks.

Its so hard to hold on, and the idea of living on job property next to people eeks some of us.

This is so hard that waves of giving up often envelopes. But for the sake of survival...we must push on as much as we abhor it.

We are managing....a little shakily. As a loner system, we are faking it till we make it.
