This week has been a wild ride for sure. My final project was supposed to be ready for implementation on Sunday. I keep e-mailing my teacher and she hasn't responded and hasn't opened up the final piece I need so I am in limbo land with it. On Sunday my mom and I got into it again. We decided to finally move out. I ended up taking Eve up to Adam's parents for the week on Monday. All week we were moving and working. I am exhausted. I found a new daycare for Eve. I refuse to let my mom see Eve again until she agrees to go see a therapist. IMy parents are really mad at me but I need to do what is best for my family. So for the next few weeks I will be off and on because I have so much stuff to accomplish and set in place. Adam and I feel really good about our decision and feel like we are going to finally get to be adults. I think we have had such a dependent relationship with my parents that it is nice to get a break from them. I really hope my mom/parents can work everything out so that at some point in the future we can have a relationship with them but I don't want my daughter to be raised thinking a love/hate roller coaster relationship is ok. I feel the worst for Eve and my dad. They are best friends and it makes me sad that they won't get to spend as much time together but overall we are already seeing a change in Eve's relationship with us. It is nice to actually feel like I am her MOM not just her birth parent. The laughter in our home can return. I didn't realize how restricted I felt like when we were living there but Adam and I feel a huge sense of relief in being able to only answer to each other. My parents have a lot of challenges facing them in the future but Adam and I both realized that we can't fix their problems. We will still support them but we need to do what is best for our family first.

Glad to hear you got out! (you really didn't post much- but from what I have read-- it didn't sound like a very theraputic environment.)
Good Luck and get some rest!!!
