Things they have in common.

I rearranged my bedroom today.

 Again. For the umpeenth time. 

Looks real good and functional.

He/she wants to be entertained by the media more than real life here

 Is bored easily. 

Is there such a thing as normal?

 What constitutes normal?

Watch his whole attitude change instantly when he sees a cute girl

 or one of the neighbors 

Conclusion: He needs to live alone. Maybe I do, too

He controls the entire home, yard and all three vehicles we have. 

He leaves his personal belongings in every room, the entire garage, the entire upstairs and main floor hall closet and half the kitchen table. 

He consumed the entire living room with all of the things he wants and likes. Two recliner chairs, a coffee table in between the chairs filled bottom and top with his stuff. A large brown tan and black printed oriental rug is on the floor. He bought the rug at Super Flea probably in 2000 or 2001. It is old and dirty.

A large wood entertainment center he built filled with his stereo equipment, reel to reel players, cds, dvds, turntable, vinyl records.  A big screen television he bought many years ago sits atop the center. He is the only one who uses the tv and all of the stereo equipment. 

The top of the entertainment center is piled with miscellaneous gadgets, tools, gloves, etcetera.  He leaves his clothes, shoes, boots, jackets, tools, in the living room. He bought a small dorm refrigerator full of his drinks and food and put it in the corner of the living room close to a built in bookshelf. The refrigerator blocks part of the access to the books and it is difficult to get to them. That built in bookshelf is full of his books and miscellaneous items he stacks on top of the books and in front of the books. 

He put kerosene lanterns, boxes, rugs, gloves, cans of old candles, on top of the wood shelf going along the sides of the fireplace. 

The entire living room and contents is dusty. He is the only one who can clean it which might happen once every few years. 

He has two sheds outside full of his stuff. He has used up most of the laundry room area by putting the old kitchen cabinets in the room and filling them and covering the top of the cabinets with his stuff. He put an old washer and dryer in the laundry room in the middle of the floor.  He built a two shelves in the laundry room years ago and put his big boxes of old stuff underneath and on top of each shelf. 

He filled up the table with two drawers that I brought home one day. He put his old electronics stuff in the bottom of it and filled the whole top with crates of vhs tapes and says he plans on watching all of those movies. 

He has full control of the entire front and back yard and the other two sides of the house. The north side of the house is lined with his junk alongside the house and all along the fence across from it.  He has a pile of firewood he cut (and cuts every year) and a huge pile of bricks/stones close to the north fence past the middle of the backyard. 

He has one bedroom filled with all of his stuff. He uses one bathroom, filled with his stuff and he "cleans" it now and then. Not too often from the way it looks.

Anymore if I make it ...

If I make it through any of these I am happy, happier than before....

through a meal in peace without a fight

wake up and have energy

can decide what to wear and be content with the outfit

walk without tripping

manage to finish cleaning anything

complete the laundry for the day

complete the dishes for the day not having to do yesterday's dirty dishes or pans

manage to vacuum an entire room

sell something online either in person or through the mail

keep my wits about me in the chaos

able to complete a task without being questioned, directed, ridiculed, harassed at home
