Beside Myself

am so upset. Not just about trying to make ornaments for the craft fair. It finally snows so they can offer to shovel driveways and sidewalks for money. They planned to shovel my driveway for money. He announced at 5 PM on Thanksgiving he needs to go to the chiropractor. He has headaches and shoulder muscles are tight and hurt. Explained the chiropractor is closed on Thanksgiving. OK, tomorrow. Checked and they are closed Black Friday too. He has to wait until Monday. Forget about shoveling my driveway. Girlfriend won't do it by herself even though I can. OK, so as long as we go before Dec 1 cause that is when he Medicaid ends cause he refused to fill out a survey to keep it. And he refused to pay $8 for a sling when he fell off his scooter and tore tendons in his shoulder. I explained Monday is Dec 1. So guess who is paying for the chiropractor on Monday after I get off work. Me. I hate saying this but I am reaching a breaking point. I'm getting tired of being Mommy.

Forgot to mention he tried to get insurance through the government marketplace, but they can't verify his identity so he can't get that either.

I think I'm having a nervous breakdown from all the stress. I plan to close my shop for good after Christmas, but I can't tell people that cause then they definitely won't buy anything. It is breaking my heart. I dreamed of making a catalog and selling my items in gift shops at tourist spots or local retail stores. I thought of opening my own gift shop in Valley Junction or East Village selling souvenirs or greeting cards I create. But none is going to happen cause I can't sell things. I created the cutest stuff with Printful and nobody wants them. My heart is broken. Then have to deal with Roommate losing his Medicaid and can't get a insurance, can't get a job. Then deal with trying to make ornaments in a hurry and each one takes 3 to 4 hours with difficult directions in these kits. I'm hurting and then Roommate complains I don't help with the dishes or clean the house.
