Exactly. My mom and dad at the beginning said they just wanted me to focus on school but then the economy happened and a pay cut plus another child looking at school meant I was on my own for food and rent…people ask why didn’t I transfer and I’m like A) This is my chance to learn to be an adult B) I went to this school specifically for the program, and C) I have three semesters left…So…that’s what I do…
My mom told me she feels bad and I told her, look, I’m 20, there’s no better time in my life to learn how to do this. I understand you’re doing what you can but we all saw this coming. I’ll be all right. So, she decided she would just send me care packages of mac & cheese and peanut butter and I’ll be fine. Told her I’d be eating arroz con pollo and pasta e fagioli for the entire year but that I’m OK with that
So it’s true, sometimes, your family wants to help but can’t.
I do take time to pray and relax during the week, even if it’s half a day instead of a complete one. And, I’ll admit, cleaning relaxes me a bit, because it stills my mind…So, there you go. And I go to Mass on Sundays. I think God understands.
