today I seem to be laughing a bit more, it seems having a whine about life is almost as good as doing something about it.

After many days of wondering why you were here, and your half assed effort to get a job, Why did you scare my wife with your story of how you killed someone who was riding a motorcycle in your big rig truck? That was your first words to her, I never once knocked on the door to the trailer and asked you to do anything. You make a simple project hard and difficult, even to the point of breaking, or faking breaking your toe so you could stay in bed all day. You were here for 17 days and I was getting tired of you counting your money, showing me how little you had, then going up to the store and buying beer. I felt that you were using me for a free ride. On Sunday you did not show your face until after 5:00pm and we got in an argument and I asked you to leave you threw a tantrum and vandalized my property even when you drove off, spinning your tires on my grass and ripping up the lawn. Also you were arrested for DUI and I had no idea you had even been drinking since you had not made your daily beer run.

I think you have been using people for way to long and at your age you should become responsible for youself. You lived here for 17 days, with wifi so you could stream video as you reported here on eplaya, life was really tough here wasn't it? Well you blew it, but I doubt this is the first time.

Here is your last post from my trailer.

Radical what? just kicken back gettin drunk and other people are paying for it all. wow, such a deal

Ok, I want to say I am sorry. I wish things had gone very, very differently. I think that you do have a lot of good qualities and could really be a dynamic person. I think you could agree that life could be going better for ya, I am sorry, very sorry if you are hurting, but I really believe and hope that you can reach down deep inside yourself and become an asset, a contributing member, a happy camper. Before coming here you indicated that life was a bit tough, I hoped and prayed that you would find focus, a dream and act on those things. But then I got the feeling that a dependency was beginning and that scared me. Sorry for ever implying that I would provide anything different in our relationship, for which I had great hope. I wish you the best in your life.

I really wonder how you blame me for you losing everything. My original offer was to help MaryAnn with a place where she could find peace and quite. Where the daily demands of life slow way down. Don't you thing your drinking might be a problem? Heck on Sunday you hid out all day in my trailer, I had no idea you were drinking all day and when I saw you, and you said the stupidist shit I ever heard and I asked you to leave. Then you began to vandalize things so I had to sit and watch to to make sure you did no more damage. You scared my wife who called 911. I tried to stop the police from coming here, but once the call is placed they like to come out and check to make sure everything is ok. When the Sheriff was here after you had left, I told him I was not going to file a complaint for the damnge you caused, that you had enough going on I was going to forgive you what you would owe me for staying here. Other sheriffs had stopped you and apparently you were drunk and they arrested you. This is not my fault, this is your doing Ok, now about work you did here. Please tell me how many hours you think you worked? I am not asking how many minutes, but how many hours? Maybe 3 hours in 17 days? Those brirks you tossed around my yard I brought to the location, I set half the bricks. It was interesting seeing you work. You would make things so difficult and you seemed to not have any talents or abilites that you could use here. I am stll torn on if you are a danger to me and my family. Your text to my phone where you say "you will pay" is a bit of a threat. The damage you caused, especially with your vehicle when spinning your tires upon leaving also kinda pisses me off.

All that being said, I aint perfect neither and I guess you came here expecting someone to baby you and take care of your laz ass and I guess that is my fault. I can only say that time will tell. That you really have bad feelings for what how I trired to help you also kinda confuses me and pisses me off.

The offer was originally to MaryAnn to give her a place of peace and quite. I am now afraid to try and help since it can go so very wrong. I hope everyone understands my thinking.

Shut the fuck up! I didn't vandalize anything, and I wasn't drinking all day. I took a nap. You taking pics of me and theatening to post them on eplaya unnerved me. It became obvious, before the event, that you wanted slave labor. Say what you want, but we both know the truth. You are a lazy fucking hippie that uses a golf cart WAY too much! Saying you will pay, I told you Id send you a billl dipshit! Now STOP polluting eplaya with this shit. I'm done....on eplaya

So, just taking a nap makes you drunk under the law? You must of had above the legal limit to be arrested for DUI, but you just took an all day nap. We had our argument starting at about 5:15pm it was over an hour before you were pulled over, yet your blood limit was still high enough to be arrested. Maybe if you had not been drunk we would not have had an argument. Dude, you left PISS in bottles in my trailer, what the fuck, that is really sick. Lots of places to pee outside and a toilet, (but you would have to dump it, oh my god, WORK) The trailer really smelled when you left, why didn't you open windoes or the roof vents, or clean up after yourself. I want you to look in the mirror and stop blaming me for your fuckups. And as far as the damage you did here, I have tried to be generous but you are not showing any sign of understanding my concerns that YOU raised.
