Aww, I'm sorry to hear that. Is it tied in with your aunt's passing??

----------

Not sure where you are, but I'm gonna go. It's close to 10pm and the baby's definitely bitching. D:

Oh sorry I was on the phone after that.

It's not about my aunt, but about my brother and apparently the way that I inappropriately tell people who are suppose to hold my dad in high opinion that we have a dysfunctional family.

----------

And that I apparently blame him for all my shortcomings, as well. It's like no...You're not listening to me. I said we all have issues and MAYBE just MAYBE things would of turned out different if we all had gotten help years before.

*shrugs* You know my background, Izumi. Therefore you know I'm pretty much in full agreement with you. I can see why he lashed out, because who wants to be blamed for failure? Still, never will I say it's the responsibility of the child(ren) when a household goes to hell, you know?

Aaron says just don't talk about it. I wasn't the one who brought that one up. Well I guess in a round about way as I told dad I was sending up a piece of work Pam had written about loosing Joe with mom. I guess I can't mention his name anymore without digging up the skeletons.

----------

Other than that I had a wonderful weekend though...

Oh oh and I finished my latch hook project. I was so proud of myself!

I assume it's because he's hurting, though assumptions are just assumptions (and certainly not excuses). It will pass in time. In the meantime, you're entitled to feel how you feel regardless of who says what.

Yah I think he is too, and he's struggling trying to voice it or even acknowledge it on his part. He's the kind of person who will keep it to himself as that's probably how he was taught to deal with it. I would love to talk about it openly, but without the finger pointing crap that he was doing the other night. I'm not trying to pinpoint any of it anymore as it's been said and done and I've pretty much made my peace with it. What I would like to do is make up for lost time and to form a good relationship with them while they're still here.

Things will fall into place. It is still a very fresh and open wound. :( Time will allow things to meld the way they're meant to.

Thread, live, KICK!

Thread, fail, DELETE!

Comment, Funny, ROFL. :lol:

I really should be more active and stuff. It's just that most of the people I talk to about life stuff I have on FB anyway. >.>

Chi:

Whare you paying for the slippers?

I'm not buying them, Saisei is. I would guess 4k?

Ohh, alright..hmm..I think about it.

I know he won't go higher than that. I'd have to ask if he even has pure right now. :lol: Either way just PM him if you decide to sell.

He doesn't.
He does. Barely.

*rolls into thread*

Hiya! Well if you ever want to have a conversation here Chi you know I'm always up for it. :3 Just weird hours working nights, that's all.

----------

Ohhh update on the family drama too. Just got a call from the ex wife who wants to enroll stepson in some summer wrestling program (which she's probably thinking "GET IN! Now I have an excuse why he can't see dad!")....you know the same kid who had the bone cyst in his arm and has broken it several times? She seriously needs her head examined. I'm all for the kid getting involved and active, but I would try to gently persuade him to join something less contact heavy. Jeez...

Oh and the weekend where we would normally do our family thing might be ruined as that's 'her week' and she has the option to not agree to us swapping which would suck. She hasn't said yay or neigh to it but I have a feeling something will just 'pop up' unexpectedly.

I'm envious of you people who don't have to deal with this crap...

Heya Chi and Kin, How are you? It's been awhile since i visited last. Hows your bubba. I can see she's grown soo much! ^^

Oh, life is life I suppose. We have company right now (with an old Mene user, oddly enough, though she left the site ages ago). After she goes home this week our in-laws will be out until late June. It internally feels far more busy than it actually is. Does that make any sense?

The baby is blossoming. I love her so freakin' much. Need to get an updated signature pic soon since she's huge now. Her legs are faaaaaaaaat. :XD

How are things there?

Awww so you're all booked up now until July. :cry:

I'm alright I suppose. Going through a difficult week as I'm working my nights and Aaron is on days. He'll come home literally a half hour before I start (and I'll be in the midst of getting set up), but he has the weekend off and we're hoping to make up for lost time there.

The whole wrestling thing I'm just going to be a bystander. There's nothing I can really do, and if he ends up hurting himself bad enough that he requires MORE surgery I guess there's nothing I can do...We've already got enough medical bills that are sitting there rotting anyways. What's one more?

I just hope Cole and I have fun in between visiting. My July and August are going to suck. Badly.

And yeah, just let it go. He may hurt himself, but, you can't control it. Might as well breathe it out rather than internalize it, hey?

That's what I eventually had to tell myself to do...just let it go the way it's going to. It's hard when it's someone you're suppose to care about though. :/

This week has not been fun either as Aaron and I are on different shifts. I'm glad it's only temporary though. I'd be struggling as I do enjoy having time with him. I got to spend 10mins of my lunch tucking him in for bed and about 15min before shift having dinner with him. That's all the time we spent today. Tomorrow we'll get a couple hours when he gets home as I'm off, but he's got to be to bed early. This weekend he's off...we might find something to do then.

Ohh my lol. A month with the in-laws sounds awesome ;) xD. Yes very much so, i know the feeling... I feel tired ALL the time, yet all i'm really doing is going to work and coming home. Feels like i've been far more productive though lol.

Aww that's awesome, glad to hear it. Awww cute! Makes me so clucky lol.

Eh same old really. Mainly i've just been working, sleeping, eating etc and then doing it all over again the next day lol. I've had no time to do my study, just not enough energy after a week of work really. It sucks lol.
BUT i have been trying to lose weight, got a lot of things going this year. My besties wedding, a half marathon in October, and my partner and i might start trying for a baby next year sometime. So yeah ... Lots to look forward to, just a lot of work that needs to be put into the lead up lol.

@Izumi
Hopefully all will meld the way it's meant to. :3 I hope the weekend goes well!

@Roachi
I'm grateful that, I think, they'll only be staying with us full throttle for a week. Then they're staying with my mom and visiting here and there. I'm going to be upset if it's an every day thing for three weeks. I don't do well when my personal space is invaded for that long..

That, and this is MY summer break. I have to go back to class the first week of July, and it's going to be NUTS. Condensed classes, heavy studying... I'm going to be foolish. :(

It sounds like you have a lot going on. Let me know when you start trying for your own lil' one! And I really need to lose weight myself. ;_;
