Mini Life Update Thing

General
So, to start with, for those of you who don't know I ran away from a controlling, manipulative, emotionally abusive mother a month ago. As a whole I've been a lot happier and have enjoyed my life with my mate. It has brought my mate and I closer emotionally, and in this last month as we experience emotional ups and downs, I've only felt our bond grow stronger and my certainty about our future only continues to grow.
On the flip side, the relationship with my family is appearing to deteriorate despite my efforts to maintain it. I put up with mother yelling at me what seems to be every other time we interact, and that grew to the point where I'm too paranoid to contact my own grandparents. I do everything I can to keep peace, but still the control, emotional manipulation, and yelling continues.
This past weekend was by far one of the worst. I was invited to mother's so I could pick up a Valentine's gift, and I left with her comparing me to my awful lying father with a "go back to your new family, James. You know the way out." I spent Saturday night crying in my mates arms because it had all become too much. Then yesterday my grandfather told me that if I don't keep my gas at under $50 a month, I could lose my car (which I honestly understand but there were other things that made it hurt). I was emotionally spent for the day and spent it relaxing with my mate, until mother texted me around 6:30ish asking about the call with my grandfather. Then we texted/faught for the next 3 hours and by the end of it I was so emotionally drained I just wanted to rest and put the phone away. But I couldn't do that because as soon as I tried aster saying goodnight she called me to scream at me. When she finally hung up, she told me to get her boyfriends daughter to get her bf to answer her. Minutes after I got a text saying he broke up with her, followed by s call to her crying and sobbing so much I could barely understand her. I can't help but blame myself a little for causing their over a year long relationship to end, and I'm going to try to fix it any way I can.
I did some work on my commissions...I just don't post WIPs unless I can post all of them ;; 
I swear, you're the one thing keeping me remotely sane anymore .-.
