Morning everyone! Rise and shine!


Hope you all have a great week.   I'm getting ready to fly out on Wednesday early in the morning (get up at 3:30 am,, flight at 5:30), ds will pick me up and drive me to the airport, he doesn't want me to take a cab alone in the middle of the night like that on the lonely streets.  He's got an awful cold right now so we shall see how he's feeling,,  dh took all the luggage with him so I just have to grab my handbag and go. Coffee is back here today and being nasty and ornery and bitey, she needs to go out and get some fresh air and exercise,,, we'll try that a bit later before lunch cause I'll have to bathe her afterwards.


I didn't watch the Oscars last night just too late, it's playing again tonight at 22:00 (10pm), so maybe i'll catch the red carpet,, don't really care about the other parts especially now that I know all the winners (BLAH, didn't like the winners).

I have Obama's book on my TBR list too. I wish I read faster as there are so many good ones on my list. Since I remarried, I don't read as much. I'm enjoying life even better too though..nice!


Sure wish you were around here during the campaign for I needed an ally! The Sandbox is a predominately Red State.


Glad I made you laugh as it's medicine for the soul!


Fairy dust dreams!

LaLa

my dad passed last june. I did the sutiful thing...took mom home and cleaned house and arranged the funeral. After the huse was clean my sis showed up to rink and take the credit. From that day forward we were treated horribly.Dad would have rolled over in his grave!
I was the daught that got married and not 2 weeks before the baby came. Or picked up hubby #2 a week after hubby #1.
Never got rolled out of a trunk drunk on the lawn or snuk out.
Now how did i become the bad one...no idea.
We know you are the good one and i would adopt you at the drop of a hat! (((((((((hugs))))))))))
Ps not one work from my famly since last june when we left on the 23rd! Some people (no matter how they hurt or you miss what used to be or could have, are just too toxic!

No wonder Cin was so happy here. I have a great deal of respect for anyone that is willing to take the job but I am extra impressed with Obama. I also knew of him long before the election cycle began. The book is wonderful.

I still have lingering guilt that I have no interest in trying to fix things. I am so much happier with it broken. There is nothing left for me to give them.


I was the good daughter my whole life. People pleasing, bending over backwards, never breaking a rule. Well HA! that's over.


LIBERATION!

oh lala


as the girls told me here...you are now part of this family. nobody needs the family poo from other families!


We could have been twins. i too was the good daughter. Didn't help me at all. Just more expected from me. All i got was physical and verbal abuse. Took me years to be able to think i am worth anything at all!

I am the eldest daughter of two. heather is 3.5 years younger. so i helpe raise her. Mom and dad drank and that was their life till dad passed. I herwe not mom and heather have continued this lifestyle.


I was lucky in my early 20's i saw a therapist and he met mom and told me to drop my toxic family. he was right. nothing good came of any of it.


My cousin erwin was at dads funeral. welcomed with open arms. you see with him and his sister my mom made them her project. My kids have not got a gift since 96...but she sent them to erwin and his sister laurie.Her brood of kids too. you see her dad died a few years ago anddad paid for the funeral. before that she wanted nothing to do with dads family.


Now it is all about moms side, booze, gossip and heathers wonderful kids...not!


At 46 it still hurts. to hear about the holidays everone else has with family. the mom and daughter times...ect. Some people will never get why i am here and not with them. I hear it all the time....family is family...not!!


I have my life...very very little drinking. sometimes a drink every 6th month or so...so very different. I did not want my kids to wake to the sound of parents throwing up on christmas morning and fighting.


It will be hard Lala...but we are worth so much more .


((((((((((((((((hugs))))))))))))))))
