Okay guys.... Theres been alot going on this summer for me....
After my eye injury... I decided to go down to my grandpa's to help him pack up his stuff and get his house ready to sell so he could move up with my uncle.....
Helping a seventyeight year old man with stuff he cant do..... Getting out of brookville and visiting senic virginia for two weeks... What could go wrong???
Well... I got another prime example of how bad things happen when you try to help someone.
Big Mistake.
My mom... While visiting vietnam (no kidding) decided to show her true colors and be typical wendy.
I dont really want to go into things.... All i'll say is i was liberated by a Virginia State Child Services worker who said she had never dealt with anyone like wendy before.... She just described things as inexcusable and came and got me on July 12.
After that i spent two weeks in Lakeside, Ohio with my dad on vacation.... Lots of sailing... Lots of hanging out.... And lots of thinking.
Theres alot that goes on in my life off camera and off what i write about.....
Five years ago, my parents went through a really bitter divorce and my mom got full custody of me, and ive been living with her ever since. I never really gave much thought to it, and as i fifth grader i diddnt put up much of a fight...
That woman is a dark and sadistic person. Theres a whole nother side to her. Shes ill... An out of control workaholic and a severe narrsist.
I thought about my life down there and all that went on in it... And decided that, as much as i loved the farm, it just wasnt worth it anymore.
I decided i wasnt coming back.
My dad got full custody of me August 26.
August 27 was my first day at Stow-Monroe Falls high school!!!!
I Love this place!!!! I went from a school of 400 to 2,000+ and its awesome!!!
I just decided i had to put myself above the tractors and my hobbies... An obvious decision... that took five years to make.
So... Here I am now.... In the middle of suburbia....
No more tractors and shop and farm for me... And honestially... Im not sure how much i miss it all.
It was alot of fun, and my favorite hobby... But was also the most time, money, labor, stress and hard work i ever put in for the least in return.
That doesnt mean i regret it though!! Id do it all again any day....
My mom, not even in six months could get me into drivers ed. She put it off, stalled, and lied to my face about it.
But thankfully im no longer there and am in my third week of it... So i get my lisence in like a month.
After that, i can go back down there for long weekends, breaks, etc and work on tractors, make videos, and just have fun.
I just cant live there. Ive had enough.
This video explains it more....
