OS question

To uninstall bodhi, just delete the partition and upfate your grub configuration to remove bodhi from the boot menu.Btw you can use gparted to resize partitions if you want to.

There is no typical uninstall. One way is to mount the partition with
Bodhi on it, and delete all files. Then use the partition to store other
data. Another is to delete the partition and add the space to another
volume, if you have LVM.

Resizing depends on the partitioning scheme you currently have and the
software used. GParted for example, supports resizing of partitions. If
you do not use Linux Volume Manager (LVM) partitioning scheme, it might
not be a good idea to resize physical and logical partitions. It might
cause data loss.

If you have not setup LVM but wish to resize Trisquel's partitions (typically the one where /home is), GParted is the graphical utility you probably want to use. But you had better start it from a Live system because it is risky to resize a mounted partition.

As far as I remember, GParted is in Trisquel's default ISO (and, actually, in most GNU/Linux Live system). You can find it in the menu or execute it from a virtual terminal with the gparted command.

I would also suggest using a liveCD to resize or edit partitions. On top of that you can mount your Bodhi partition(s) and your Trisquel partition(s) and easily transfer any data you don't want to lose.
