Scrappy, I'm glad you guys have heard from BiL. I hope your DH and SiL are able to get through to him. Ugh.

ION, remember how I said the dogs and I were having a rough morning? Well, it just spilled over into the afternoon. I just went to go to the bathroom and slipped in the kitchen--on water that Pumpkin spilled while playing with her water dish. I don't know what I did to my hip, but it fucking hurts. I'm now doped up on painkillers, crying in bed.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Aw, vw, that sucks. I hope the painkillers kick in soon.

Those packing police are sure sticklers.

This made me laugh like a drain. I shall share this with the DH, who can use some levity.

(((vw))) Feel better.

Scrappy, I'm glad he showed up. -ma all around.

T just called me in hysterics because her boyfriend is being an ass. This day can bite me.

Oh no, vw! Ugh, I'm sorry.

CBD is the best. He's gonna leave work early to take me to the chiro. Bless him.

Good CBD! I hope the chiro helps.

“Not dead yet!”

Scrappy, I'm glad the BiL showed up again--

{{vw}} for the doggy messes they don't realize can really hurt the bipeds.

And thanks for the hugs, y'all. I got out of the house, even though it was kind of the last thing I wanted to do-- but I went out with a friend who's also a writer and who has both a son and daughter. Since the boys were at middle school orientation today, we made it a girl's afternoon and went to lunch and then to Barnes and Noble and had Dairy Queen dipped cones and I do feel a bit better.

In the back of my mind I've known that these issues with my brother were going to come up at some point-- I'm very antagonistic about him, for a lot of different reasons and she refuses to see where I'm coming from. I just never in a million years expected the issues to be compounded with the reappearance of my father in her life.

Because it can't ever be easy. But you know, she kind of invited this situation, not me, so she can deal with it. I've got my own issues.

Barb, it sounds as if you are dealing with this whole crazy dynamic with as much wisdom and maturity as can be.

Hugs and best wishes for everyone who's having a bad time (I'm soooo far behind - spent the last two days in bed with the sinus infection that would not go away).
