hugs to miss wannabe. I hope things work out for you. Family just has no clue how insensitive they can be at times.

 

[SSDreamin]

Yes, family can be thoughtless, insensitive jerks. They seem to love to rub salt in sore spots, then ask you what YOUR problem is I have stood by the assumption that I was adopted for quite sometime now

I try to remind myself that what doesn't break you only makes you stronger. That, and hunting the internet for a viable Voo-Doo doll supplier is what keeps me sane

I'm fine really, they just got uneder my skin yesterday. I'm usually not so senstitive(that's Jamie's department ) but I am just a smidgen stressed anyway and they just shoved me over the edge. Now mind you, they're still insensitive jerks for what they spouted off about, but I am in a better mood today. I forgive their idiocy. They're all stressed too I guess, and people say REALLY dumb things when they feel pressured. It's whatever, thay can't keep me down

I got a nice score from the DG today, saved a bunch of money and finished restocking the cabinet I have been working on for several weeks. So now, I have the cabinet/freezers/everything really well stocked Final tally was $75 worth of goods for $56, so a savings of $19. Not as good as usual, but I didn't shop strictly sales and coupons this time. Just over 25% savings so still not bad at all.

DD20 and SIL came over for a visit this morning. They stayed for a long time. I got the goat milked, and went to the store. There was a wreck when I left so it took a while to get home. Someone hit head on and clipped the corners of the vehicles. A little Chevy Celebrity and a HUGE new Dodge Ram Dually. The Dodge caught the brunt of the damage. The drive shaft fell completely out of the truck It tore up the hood, and the quarter panel and bumper n it too. The little Chevy car had the front quarter panel knocked off and a hanging bumper Thankfully the speed limit through there was just 30 and I think neither was speeding at the time of impact, but I guess that's lucky for the driver of the Dodge truck...any more speed and the thing may have just disentigrated You'd think they were better built than that for the price tag :/ It was tore up pretty bad. Anyway, things are same old same old around here.

I moved myself 1,000 miles to SC, so I can have peace of mind, from my family. Due to some extenuating bad circumstances that happened back in 2000, actually 98, I am only talking to my dad, and his g/f. My 2 sisters are cold shouldering me. My kids aren't communicating...it's all a royal mess. So, I just packed my little self up, packed my little nissan frontier...and headed east.

Yeah, I've done that myself in the past. It never solves anything, but it gets it all out of your face and off your doorstep My sister and I haven't been on good terms in about 8 years. We speak, but it's usually strained on her part. My family are the worst for blaming you for things you had nothing to do with, and then holding a MAJOR grudge. It's all pretty stupid. But then, I didn't pick this family, God picked it for me. Somewhere in all of it there is a purpose for the insanity. I'm just along for the ride. Glory to God for even having a family. I guess I should be grateful. God knows my heart though, and He knows they make it difficult to even like them, much less tolerate them some days.....I just have to make sure I do what's right and let them do whatever they do. I have no control over it, and wouldn't want it...it'd be akin to herding cat's...scratch that...herding deaf, blind, mentally handicaped, 3 legged cats...but I digress

As a military wife for 15 years...soo many years ago....we learned to make family where we found it. As far as my own family....I find it best to let sleeping rattlesnakes lie. Don't mess with them. Better not to agitate the waters. Confrontations aren't going to fix anything either.

So true. I have great neighbors and friends, I've always been closer to friends and neighbors than my family
