Ugh - I started typing and the site went bloop bloop. Seriously ya'll love to make fun of me, but it's the damn site, probably my damn computer and then LASTLY user mal-function. LOL
Anyway - WTE, I loved the story about the assholes at the pool. I for sure would've taken that shit a step further after that foozball hit my face!! Nobody the fuck hits me in the face, not to mention a damn12 yo at the direction of his asshole father??!! Seriously??!! Ooooooo - I would have been all over that one. But then I am in the biz of dealing with asshole kids and their parents! LOL Glad you had an overall good time.
As per usual, so much to comment on...
DZ - my notes say "armpit hair/genuine ginger"...help me. LOl But I am soooooooooo happy for you all day every day.
Sun: feel better!! We are in count-down mode. Doggie gas?? Do not even want to comment
Mimi: wish you could join us!! Chin up, girl and think it through: are you happier with him or without him? Maybe you need to leave...
My sister is leaving her husband this weekend...they married, divorced, remarried, now divorcing again. Crazy, but normal really. Anyway, Mimi...you hang in there & let us know how you are!!
I'm excited for the San Diego Summit...wish someone would have made a group email of all of our offsite email addresses. But alls well - I got all my ducks in a row, told my new principal this morning "circumstances beyond my control/don't want to go into it really,etc" teared up to the point she embraced me, said it's ok!! LOL - I missed my calling as an actress! I can turn those tears on & off in a heartbeat! FUNNY!!
Anyway, so I have also turned myself into an early go-to-bed/earlyriser person! LOLOLOL
I have been getting up at 5:45 to go jog, then get ready for school...trying to get to bed by 9. UGH - but...
A bit late tonight, but it's the weekend & a holiday. But my plan is to get to bed by 9, read...and if I have a wee dram of vodka to put myself to sleep with...I'm ok.- I look forward to a nice long weekend. Going to see my son tomorrow in College Station (hour+ away) golf on Sunday, getting ready for trip Sun/Mon.
Woo Hoo!! Got my ducks in a row at school, feeling the stress level lifted bigtime...

Wondering Why I Invest So Much of my Life in My Children?
Is it because I am divorced and have so few friends and only live my life thru my interactions with my children? If so, it's causing me quite alot of pain that they don't really return the favor seeing as how they are young, have friends and/or married and keep doing things that "HURT MY FEELINGS" and they don't even know it and they get annoyed when I tell them about it. They tell me that I need to "Make Friends, See a Therapist, Find Hobbies, Go on Match", I've tried a few of these, all but Making Friends, which I am hopefully doing now, really, that might seem strange, but for a nurse, it is not that strange, we are a co-dependent bunch, I have become more healthy with age, :H:H, (only this AL problem) probably the lonleness when it comes right down to it,
Well, this is actually becoming an issue lately, I need to withdraw a little from their lives, but they are my life, hopefully I am making a bit of a new life, I kind of feel it here, we will see:h, I can tell you the whole story at the "Summitt" if you care to hear it:H, thanks for listening.
Love, PlayComment

Sun, yes, if you wake up at 5:30 it will be 3:30 here and no, it is not light at 3:30 AM, you will be weeding in the dark and I will not be lounging and watching you, but then, I think the more difficult part will be in the evening when , it will be 9pm here and 11pm for you, but oh geez, you will have to overcome that, otherwise you will have to go to bed at 8pm and get up at 4am, now i'm getting confused, jet lag only takes about two days and by then you will be going home:H:H, just try to adjust from "DAY ONE".

Actually Play - it is ironic - because one of my daughters is cross about all of you and the fact that I HAVE got you all - she is cross I am coming to visit with you all - feels that if I have the leave I should be going and visiting her and was quite hurt about it - she can't seem to understand that I need to have a life too - the other daughter is really pleased for me !! And yes, looking forward to hearing about it from you......playland;1372107 wrote: Is it because I am divorced and have so few friends and only live my life thru my interactions with my children?

Hi Sun and All,
Just at work for a very long day, new developments I hear, I got home late after a hell day and I made a medication error that made me feel awful, then had dinner with my youngest daughter who just got back from her trip to Ghana and then Spain and had to go thru the whole talk of why I need to work and have health care and so on like I am either 8 or 80, I guess this is what I have to look forward to.
Space how was the wedding? can't wait to hear, I will pop into your thread just in case you have posted and can't stand to post twice, hehe, also can't wait to meet you and see you prancing around in your heels at the Flamenco performance, LOL.
love and hugs to everyone,

Hi Mimi: I've been thinking of you because my husband is alo off hunting only he's over Whanutchee, Wa. We also have little in common except three kids and were outing or the same guy...mimi911;1371388 wrote: Hi Everyone,
Hope you haven't forgotten me. i have been busy doing projects around my house since my hubby has been in Canada hunting. I thought he was going to come home sometime between Monday and Wednesday of next week. he called today and is coming home on Saturday.
I know I should feel excited for him to come home but all I can think is I'm not ready. I felt like I couldn't breath. I love him but we just don't have anything to talk about. Even though he's been gone for almost 2 weeks we still can't spend more than a few minutes on the phone. Our conversation consisted of,
"When are you getting home?" "Did you get anything"? "I've been busy with projects around the house" then that was all I could think to say to him.
9 days AF....Yay
I read some of your past posts and I ditto what Play said regarding rigid opinions...which I would also call narcissism...but however you label it, your husband' s reaction to your situation sounds as unhelpful if not as counter productive as my husband. I believe they mean well in a truly limited sene but for me I don' t care anymore about intentions because if I don't get better, and he stands in my way either intentionally or not, I have to go. I'm no good to my children or my life if I don't ...
Sorry I'm rambling. It's just a subject close to home for me. Feel free to PM me. It's just me and my twin daughters for the next couple of days. I'm enjoying the time...except hen they are throwing pillows at my head...
Gotta go!

Hi Mimi, my heart really does go out to you, I've been thru it, I'm not saying what will happen for you, but sometimes there does come a time when you either have to give up your "SOUL" or give up your marriage, something like Kradle seems to be saying also, I know you will find your way thru this because there is no other way, and you will do it. Please PM any of us if you need to and keep posting because we are all truly caring about you, honestly.
love,

Good Morning everyone!

Okay......most of you know what is going on - the Summit 6 do anyway - WTE is in the hospital. I am not going to discuss it on line but feel free to PM me anyone else and I can let you know what is happening. Play and I are still going and are going to get a hotel, near where WTE is so we can go and visit and not have to waste our tickets too.....
I text talked with WTE today and she is in a lot of pain and can't talk much 'cos of it so haven't talked with her but she said that she won't be meeting with us if we go out there. Any of the 6, I think you all have my phone number - please feel free to call me or e-mail me or PM if you need any info on any of those or what we text talked about today or maybe I will just do a mass PM. I have only just got in from work so give me a few minutes....okay?
I am asking you all to keep WTE in your prayers and send her lots of healing vibes. She is not in a good place right now and I really feel SO sorry for her. she was SO looking forward to this as were we all.
love and hugs to everyone......

Sun - I so wish that I had a big enough house so we could be here but there's no way. :upset: We have a VERY small house and there is just no way that we could squeeze in. But, it is better to be nearby WTE in case she is feeling better and can stand short visits. Please do send out a PM to the Summit 6.
I am sending lots of prayers to WTE. Been thinking about her all day.:h"Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me.".....Carol Burnett

Hi Nora,
Don't worry, we will all be close by and see WTE when she is able to have visitors, I'm sure she will be feeling better in a few days, and then we will see her. So, plans have changed about where to stay but we will see you Soon!
Love and Hugs,
