Had to use some of my rent money to buy food

I couldn't live like that. Yelling is not affective for anything but blowing off steam. It is sickening.

I would have just bought 2 cake mixes and made a cake at home. No one else had any money. I had $13 and he was mad because I didn't offer to help with the water bill with that 13 bucks. I was so stressed I didn't even eat today. I finally had a few bites of supper and 2 canned peach halves. I didn't want it. Now he is chewing my daughter out because the cell phone bill is high. When he gets like this he drives me nuts. He can be the nicest person but he goes ballistic in about 3 seconds time. I need to go for a walk. Hearing my daughter cry is making me sick to my stomach. I have to stay out if it.

I know RitterSport. I said this would happen while I was at the other house and he said we would manage. I have $13 left in my checking account and he is upset because I didn't offer to put that on the water bill. What am I supposed to do? Go in the red and have bounced charges on me? It will get better... it always does. No matter what it will always be my fault.. not theirs for shopping at a more expensive store. Sure yellow tags are cheaper, but still not always cheaper in the long run when the bill tallies up.

no no no the water bill is HIS problem and not yours. I mean every person living in a Senior Citizens home will get some cash to use for his or her personal needs and you dont even have THAT. S should be ashamed to even mention you are thinking about your Bday. Shame on him for what he said. He has milked you in any way in the old house and does so in the new house.

It really does help to talk about it. It's over now... he isn't yelling anymore. I went for a walk to get away from the tension. I'm in my room now and I don't plan to come out unless I have to use my bathroom down the hall.

I don't go asking people for a loan either. If S ever spends money on food I make sure I give it back to him in gasoline for his car or something. It's my job to buy the food. He pays everything else.. I have to pay $200 on my part of the rent. It's $750 and I pay 200 of it.. they pay the rest. It will get better... it's just hard now.

I suggested Save a lot, and my daughter said not to dictate where they shop for food. I said we only have so much money and you all said I was letting you down when you can't do any better than I did with the shopping.. because you shop at the more expensive store! We are getting an Aldi's and we will be using it. I'll be glad when it is done and open. My gift from my daughter and SIL should be here tomorrow.. I'm getting another lamp for my birthday.. they bought me a princess lamp that is like my Cinderella lamp.. I forget the princess's name though.. my memory is so bad. I have a baby doll with a tennis ball in her lap, and a Christmas dog with reindeer antlers with Christmas balls around him, and I have an angel with fiber optic wings .. and my Cinderella doll lamp that lights up. In time I'm going to have all Disney stuff in my room.. I always loved Snow white and Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella.. Oh the doll lamp my daughter and sil bought me is a Princess Belle lamp. My room is going to be a reflection of what I love. It's starting with my birthday but it's going to keep on going as I can get things.. I want the sheets and comforter to go with it..
