Flameful confession

    Ok, think about him walking you down the aisle this way (if you're seriously going to let him, just to avoid drama). This is not just your wedding. Your inability or refusal to deal with the 'drama' means that your fi has to watch a sexual predator, a man who victimized his wife to be, walk her down the aisle like nothing.ever.happened; lift her veil, kiss her cheek. Yep. That'a nice picture for him.

    This day is not all about you; it's about the two of you. Don't do that to him.

     

    Valid point. Plus I can't get on your moms team. Just can't.

    Just an FYI she doesn't know about this and she would never ask that of me.

    She knows abuse took place. She is still with him. It will never be okay in my book to chose a man over a child.

    I completely respect this opinion, I would feel the same way if it were anyone else.  Hell I've tried to be angry but it doesn't make me feel any better.

    Anger doesn't make you feel better, the things anger makes you do.. That makes you feel better.

  • I've been judging my sister a lot lately and some things I've said were not nice.

    Today she called me crying and I helped her fix a situation. 

    I get so angry that she does things without thinking them through and then when sh!t happens, her crying suckers me in.

    Today was different in that it actually wasn't her fault or a  result of something she did/decided.

    I'm wondering if she caught on that her crying makes me do pretty much anything to save her.

    I've actually contemplated leaving our FB group due to others laziness. I'd give almost anything to be able to jump rope, do jumping jacks, or crunches. I may DD this one. I've got no balls.

  • I'm starting my keep-myself-busy plan tomorrow, assuming I'm not killed in the blizzard. I have a dinner with the work girls for a baby shower type deal, and then I'm taking my stepthing rock climbing at the gym, and she invited me to go "country swing dancing" after that cause it's next door and one of the Mormon girls from her 'young singles ward' invited her Monday. She had fun and said it's not all Mormon, so I won't feel like the beastly heathen black sheep. Yay!

    I hope I can get home despite the weather tomorrow, cause I'm looking forward to it.

    You have every right to feel this way.  I've been lazy as hell and not accountable at all for my eating.  I need to fix that, I just feel like other issues are taking up my energy. It's not an excuse and I need too get it together.

    I'm really glad to hear that you are going out and about keeping busy! I hope it's fun for you!

    I've thought about giving a pep talk. I just don't want it to be a 'woe is me' talk.

    People have a million excuses, and I don't care about a single one.

    When I went to a weight loss support group I had to quit because it turned into people making excuses and sharing ways to 'cheat'.

    Who the fvc& do you think you're cheating and tricking? *throws hands up*

  • I thought everyone decided to go to bed until I read your status on FB mentioning the maintenance.

    I immediately thought of Vincent Price in The Last Man on Earth.

    Cue tumbleweeds...

  • I keep weighing in my head how badly I'd like a ten pager versus how much energy I have to post stuff that people will get on their huffy bikes about.
  • I'm getting really fed up with my cousin saying stupid crap.

    For example: I went a mile on the treadmill. Granted it was a good day, I took a short break, and it took me like half an hour..

    She'll all: "You must be feeling better!"

    As if I'm cured or something.

    B!tch, please. I have my good days.. but mostly bad days.

    I know it is harder to understand than someone who is in a wheelchair every.single.day.. but still.. I have explained it to her repeatedly AND she is a nurse.

    Just.. get it, please!

    It's been decades!

  • Oh, huffy bikes! I miss mine!

    Yeah, I'm thinking a ten pager is more likely to happen tomorrow. Unless I write something so flameful that lurkers appear out of nowhere. But I've got nothing.

  • I'll just have to add more to this first thing in the morning.. or second or third thing.. sometimes I'm able to sleep for a few hours in the morning.

    There's one!

    Sometimes I think people assume I complain about being tired because I am a mom, but really it is because I'm in pain and have insomnia.

    Right now both spawn are asleep.. and here I am.

  • The only kid to get under my skin when I worked at a treatment center for young assholes was a kid who killed puppies.

    I was downright cold and scary when I dealt with him.. I still think the world would be a better place without him in it and would have been willing to kill him myself if the job had been offered.

    If she's a nurse, one would think she'd figure it the fucck out. Frustrating. 

    I've got an odd question for you. 

    Let's say they "found a cure" for you in the next 5 years. They give it to you (let's just say it's in the form of an injection) but it cures you. Would you do it?

    I'll answer in another post.

  • Yeah, I can't get with team mom either. "I'm so weak and pathetic that I'll let this man harm me and my children, and will do nothing to stop my abused daughter's wedding become a fake love fest with this predator at the center".

    Sorry. Mom's not coming off real well here. You need some serious counselling, op.

    SO SINGS MY SOUL *WHAM!* MY SAVIOR GOD TO THEE *WHAM!* HOW GREAT THOU ART *WHAM!* HOW GREAT THOU ART *WHAM!*
  • If they found a cure, I honestly don't know what I'd do.

    The reason I'd be hesitant is because we don't know what the long term effects of said cure are. Maybe I should have included that as part of the question?

    I guess I think that a lot with the newer meds on the market. They seem to show a positive short term answer, but it's the long term I'm worried about.
