I have two bags of old clothes riding around in the trunk of my car (for two months) that I need to remember to take to Goodwill. I need to get it out! I need to continue the culling, as well. I can’t bring myself to get rid of my old costumes, like the Rocky Horror Picture show costumes, even though it has been 6 or 7 years since they were worn! I’m working up to that.

And I need to learn to not let what she says get to me because I know she has a mental health problem, and I just need to deal with the fact that my mom is negative and depressed all the time. She always tells me, “This is a disease.” and I get mad at her and tell her cancer is a disease, not being an emotional twelve-year-old spoiled brat in a grown woman’s body! I always hold her attitude against her, and everything she says pisses me off because it is such a sign of how far off the deep end she has gone with the bipolar craziness. I need to forgive her for not being the mother I felt like I needed. We can’t always get what we want, but we get what we need. I guess I needed her, because I think everything happens for a reason. She’s my mom for a reason. I need to learn patience, and to forgive. Then I would treat her better. It’s so hard!
I could be doing better at this. I need to be a little more disciplined about diet and exercise.
