      Well it's all right now. I've learned my lesson well. You see you can't please everyone, so you've got to please yourself.

            The Kradle Will Not Fall...

            Hi Siren. I'm Okay. Here on day three which is such a :wow: moment for mei simply can not believe I am writing that. It's asinine that a day three is even back in my life AT ALL...

            But there it is. No denying it...sigh...

            Summer is almost upon us and I have Whitley gigs in my head about camps and trips and lessons and play dates and bankruptcy..... I haven't posted here on my thread as I am finding it tough to string words together...kind of like AF days I guess.

            Got a message from my sister I haven't spoken to in over a year. I truly don't know why she messaged me...it looks like a Facebook thing. She is a friend on my page I think and yesterday I clicked on her photo to see how my niece and nephew were doing. Not much new there so I clicked back to my page..can she see if I was there? I didn't comment or anything. Just went on and off...that's the only thing. Can't think of anything else which might trigger a message from her. And really it was the same old shit- I love you even if you don't think I do...family is everything...blah blah blah...that sounds terrible for me to say doesn't it? But it isn't because if I Have learned one thing here from all of you it's about people and their TOXIC love, TOXIC ties to you, TOXIC advice and opinions and this is exactly who she is to me.
            My husband says that the only way a family member shoud completely disconnect from another is due to a terrible event an unforgivable act. Well that's true but it also happens because of an accumulation of unacceptable events over years and years and years. That's my story...and I'm stickin to it.

            Anyway, not drinking over it. Could care less really. I'm tired now. Going to watch Voyager and take an aspirin.

            Love you all,
            :l

              LOL at that picture Siren! :H

              Hi Miss Kradle...Hope you're well today! How are those young'uns of yours doing? Mine is getting ready to go to her dads house on Sunday, she'll stay for 2 weeks or so...she has a little sister (2 years old) that she can't tear herself away from. I have to admit her little sister is a cutie pie...BUT, I don't ever want a 2 year old again! LOL

              So I did NOT get that job at the Police Department. They ended up promoting the secretary that was already there, which I completely understand, even though it sucks for me. BUT...yesterday I got a call from the Jail Supervisor and he asked me if I am still interested in the Jailer position (I applied last year)....seems it has opened up and he is setting up an oral board to interview me. People question my determination to get into the PD or jail (not BEHIND the bars mind you...lol) but for some reason I am drawn to that element....maybe because I WAS behind the bars a few times, now I'd like to get paid to be the person on the other side of them! LOL Anyway, the pay is more, it's shift work, and I'd get 3 days off a week. Everyone, please cross everything for me (AGAIN).

              Ok...I have totally hijacked Kradles thread...so sorry! Back to you....

              p.s. Kradle - did you see the new Star Trek movie? I loved it! And now I can't wait for Man of Steel....wow, talk about eye candy! Hubba hubba

                  I'm still here, promise promise K9 !

                  OMG ...a wedding, then a graduation than 2 Weeks without your munchkin I feel like a social misfit over here!

                  Well..made it to the preverbial 7 days and then slipped up. Don't really have an excuse. Was doing well except for some agitation and intense angry feelings -these pop up like weeds for me when i start to put any significant distance between me and AL...
                  There's no question that for me, my fundamental darkness is definitely being angry...there's ALOT of that in there and it derails me every time.

                  I was thinking a few weeks ago that I have come to a near stand still in rebuilding my own home..working on it as is Mr. G. In The Chilly Down Under. :l

                  My house may be mostly AL and drama free these days- as opposed to last year...:yuk: - but the foundations are just sitting there...and they need repair. No question about that.

                  So..rethinking my plan...I will take time today to spell out a simple, simple, simple plan....
                  So far..that's my plan.
                  Everyone sounds really good these days.
                  I'm humming around the boards and seeing so much progress and healing going on. :h

                  Pauly, if you're out there, wow! I am truly impressed. :l

                  Off to make breakfast and then bike through the forest....
                  Stay close everyone.

                    Hello Kradle.

                    I haven't been around these boards regularly, but take a look from time to time. Your thread is one I like to read. This last post fits into my favorite movie, so I would like to suggest you watch it. A friend here can attest to how great it is. You'll see how it applies to your life once you view it, but have a box of Kleenix ready and yes it is family appropriate. (Well, there may be a sex scene you may not want the twins to see...that's all up to you. It's under the covers.)

                    Life As a House. It's my all time favorite movie and part of my transformation bookshelf. Give it a view.

                    Love,

                    Slay

                      Wow Slay, it is so terrific to hear from you! :l I've thought about you a lot...your story was so close my best friends situation. She's doing better but i know its tough. :h
                      I have no doubt though that your strength and determination will let you take the field...as they say!

                      I remember seeing the promo for that film years ago. I never got around to watching it. I did look at the trailer on you tube and you're right...I need tissues. And I think this is a Netflix , iPad all alone film night...no kids present and accounted for. :h

                      I've made it through today ok. Girls had a basketball party and it was a chore to be social. But I was... I also took the bike through the woods and ran Luna...this needs to be a part of plan....simple, simple..

                      Tucked in bed now with Voyager and hot tea.
                      Hugs to everyone. :l

                        The Kradle Will Not Fall...

                        I had the strangest thing happen last week. I almost forgot about it. I was at the dog park with Luna (don't worry K9 I'll get pic of her up soon. ) and I'm walking along the upper rim of the field heading towards a small group with their dogs.
                        I saddle along, watching out that the dogs don't get into it. Well, this gal is standing there chatting away and suddenly I notice she's standing there with a glass of red wine...

                        I'm somewhat taken aback but everyone just carries on, chatting, throwing the balls. I'm not certain how I felt about this except a bit weirded out...I mean it's not like we're at pool side waiting for the BBQ. But I swear you would have thought this woman was in her back yard. And no one seemed to notice or care. I also thought about how in the hell can she just stand there when it's clear she as to drive home...but then I see she is with a gentleman so...designated driver

                        I wanted to say something but had no idea what to say. I've never had that happen. It's a dog park for gods sake...
                        she left before I did and I have expected people to say WTF was that?? But no one did. Maybe she had some explaination given before I got there...maybe I should just mind my own business...which I guess I did- until now.

                        Just a weird experience I wanted to share

                          In the dog park in my neighborhood, people use to bring wine/beer on Friday, Sat nights and make a party of it. When I was drinking, it seemed ok; now it seems as though the dogs deserve something better.

                            The Kradle Will Not Fall...

                            My previous boss used to take her cocktails out trick-or-treating. I thought to myself "Really? You can't give your kids one or two hours sober?" Her son even asked her if she is an alcoholic. To this day, she still "admits" to one bottle of wine per night (I've found that what people admit to is actually about half of what they REALLY drink). I know she has a hangover every single day....

                            Yeah, the dog park seems to be the place to have tailgate parties...I guess nowhere is safe anymore. Next thing you know there will be keg parties outside the library! :H
