Hairpats for meara It sucks being on the bad end of any drama.
And JZ, take heart, it comes and goes. I'm still occasionally "Mommy" or "Mama" although I've been pretty firmly in the realm of "Mom" for a few years now.
Okay, um, I'm lost. Uh, I'm angry, and I'm armed, so if you two have something that you need to work out --

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Pets and hugs and love to you, meara. And, bah! That's unhappy.

Hugs and hairpats, meara. That sounds so miserable.

Now tagless for your comfort.
{{{meara}}} That sucks. Drama and tension are not fun. Feh to them.
Stephanie, lots of offer~ma. The post-offer nausea is a sucky part of home buying but it seems like a great plan for everyone involved.
We had an awesome time at the kids' halloween party at our gym. One of the moms asked if I came directly from work (I was wearing scrubs). HA!

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Hugs to you meara.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Boo on hurty-drama, meara.
Lots of house-ma to all who need it, and appropriate -ma to everyone whose posts I read but have slipped my mind as I type this.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Hairpats, meara. What a rough spot to be in.

Trust my rage
Meara, I hate that sort of drama. But we love you!
JZ, Ellie had a Mom phase but then went back to mommy/mama. I think she says mama most often. Frisco is mostly recovered from the flu. I actually really enjoyed my week home with him. He's so cute and smiley and learning lots of new words. Just this week, I deciphered pizza, chocolate and choo-choo. Ellie is doing well. She likes her new school/teacher/friends but I k ow she misses the old group. She's been sort of extra whiny/dramatic about stuff and it's a bit hard to take sometimes. She's very sweet 75% of the time but sort of mouthy/demanding the other 25%. We are working on it.
Joe and I are okay. Good, I guess. We feel the chronic, parents of young kids, never get to spend enough time together thing. But his current job lets him eat breakfast with us most days and that is nice. Im stressed about him deploying next Sept but it's still a long ways away. Im sort of struggling professionally. I decided to try to start my own practice. It's want I want but also, there aren't many options here in CS. I have one case that Im doing pro bono and it's interesting but having the kids in daycare and me not bringing in money is expensive. I can't work if they aren't in daycare but I can't just drop them somewhere if something comes up.
Wow, that was a huge post and it makes me realize that yes, we been through a lot of change.
