Wash ,'Objects In Space'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Sadly, I'm much happier having cut off all contact with his parents. I wish things could have been different, but no one tells me I have no prerogative as his wife because his mother has it all. I don't care how screwed up our relationship was, if he was unhappy, he could have left at any time. He didn't so he doesn't get off scot-free.
Sometimes, when I'm being more cynical than usual, I wonder if I wasn't more in love with the idea of being in love than I was with the individual.
Yeah, me too, Trudy.
I more than occasionally have fantasies of a dozen of us showing up at Maria's out-laws and politely taking back the puppy.
You need to do this. And bring a camera crew.
The things they took are actually your property, Maria. If they hate you already, why not raise a stink to get them back?

Yes. You are not the only one, Trudy.
why not raise a stink to get them back?
Because it's not worth the anguish to me. It's not going to bring him back, and it's not going to change the reality of our life together.
As for Coco, his parents found her, and we've always had a long-standing joint custody arrangement. I had no qualms about them taking the dog. I work long hours and am gone frequently enough that Coco would have been miserable. She's a beagle and needs companionship--human or another dog. We were going to continue that arrangement, just flipped. I'd occasionally get her when I had the opportunity to do so. She was much more Rob's dog anyway. I was tolerated at best. She went to work with him, she went flying with him, and she ran to him first when she was happy or upset. I was perfectly content for them to keep her because I knew I'd see her, but it's all different now. It doesn't change the fact that I'm not in a position to keep Coco full time. As much as I hate to admit it, she is better off with them.
Sending you much love, Maria
Putting the doggy first is no small feat, Maria. Good onya.
Maria's out-laws
I love this term. So appropriate for these people.

OK, maybe not the puppy. How about the hockey stick?
