Anya ,'Same Time, Same Place'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
It's not the easiest and as my therapist point out a lot of big stressors going on right now.
I am feeling a little invisible which is not helping. People not including me on information that affects me at work, Mac not communicating with me at all, fewer and fewer training sessions with my trainer (she and I are both busy, but she doesn't text me with any notice when things change). I swear the dogs and this place keep me from felling completely lost of connection.
You have been a pillar of strength for me over the years, so I am happy to lend an ear. Or just to "see" you here. I think it will be nice for you to be in Baltimore with sara and Lisa around and such a cute house.
Being in the midst of transition is always hard. I think this is why I kicked my parents out as soon as they dropped me off at camp. Or college. I'm here now! Moving on!!!!
If all works out I will have at least one week in the Baltimore house alone before a job starts. I plan to completely and fully break down and also drink.
Mac wanting to do it on his own is a good thing -- that's him taking responsibility, and overall is a step forward. This will allow you the chance to be gracious when he inevitably flounders a little and asks for help.
I had a nice chat with my cousin last night, and agreed to take responsibility for my aunt's collection of green glass objets (most of which you'd never use for anything practical like eating from) and the porcelain china that originally belonged to my grandmother. The china is pretty much going to stay boxed up, but I can figure out some way to cat-proof a display for the glass.
That sounds like a good plan, msbelle.
You too, Theo.

Exactly this.
I am not upset about him wanting to do it on his own (although that generally means there will be no plan or coordination), but that he is being rude about it.
I guess I just do not accommodate when he contacts me last minute needing help or access. I've got too many plates spinning of my own.
If he got one friend to help we literally could have had his entire apartment moved tonight.

It will be nice for us, too! You've a lot going on, msbelle, and even the good stuff can be stressful.
tonight's packing is one tv (done), all my crystal (done), and enough of the lesser used glass items in my cabinets to fill a box (next up).
Everyday a little packing, everyday identifying something else I do not need to take - 2 vases and some dishes onto the get rid of pile today.
