Life has a crazy way of making full-circle moments. I have spent so many years resenting a group of people based on being bullied as a child.

As I’ve stated before, each one of my housemates added to the adventure and excitement of living in the trap house. The mother and daughter duo was a pair that I could never fully understand.

Chapter Twenty-Three has officially concluded, and in summary, I accepted I’m a wonderful chaotic put together mess.
