Sundae - LOOK at how far you've come! Everyday you don't succumb to demon rum is a freaking victory - everyday you GET UP out of bed is a victory! Dana is spot on the money - do not put yourself under mad pressure. No good decisions come from it, believe me. Slow and steady wins the prize and you ARE doing brilliantly. You are smiling now and again. Moms do tend to have so much power over our feelings and I don't think they half realize it. I can recall things my mom or dad (or even sibs) said to me years ago that still sting. They said it most off-handedly and I'm sure they've no idea I still think about their words. Love you, honey. You will survive this, you will thrive. You are one of the most intelligent people I know - and kind as doves. Hearts and flowers to you, Sundae. You are a good soul in an iffy world.

I burnt my arm on the oven today, and yesterday I slipped over on the tiles outside our door and now have a sore back and a bruised knee and elbow. Max woke up a few times last night so on top of all that, I'm tired.
The good news is that the mud cakes I was baking have turned out very well. I'm making a three tiered cake for my friends 40th birthday on Saturday. I'll post pics for those who are interested, when it's all done. My uncle died the night before last. We will go to his funeral on Saturday also.

It's ok. The burn will heal. My back will be fine, as will my knee and elbow, and my uncle was really old and he's at peace now.
Thanks for your thoughts though capn. You're very kind.

@ S.G. Maybe you can find a room for rent, or even in trade for being a nanny or an elder care live in.
If I was there or you here I would make room for you any day. There is a way out of this. I know you'll find the way. peace @ Ali, I am glad you weren't hurt any more than you were. Ouchie! |

@SG- I'm sorry you're goin through this tough time love.
Do not be pessimistic, you can make it through and succeed! I'm sorry I can't help more directly, but find a focus and stick to it. If its routine you need, then stick to that. At 8 wake up, eat breakfast, 815 take a shower, 845, pick up the newspaper, ect ect ect. If you get an apt near your parent's flat, mebbe you can still go over their frequently and make dinner. I know at some point you said you were enjoying doing that, so keep doin it. If you can find a job, even a low paying one and stick to one schedule there, that might be a great help. If thats not possible, find a volunteer position. Right now I'm suffering because I only work part-time, and my college classes just ended 3weeks ago...I'm seriously at a loss with myself and can feel the depression creeping in. That's where my advice comes from. I hope you find an apartment and get to enjoy the freedom of living on your own. *Big hugs*

Sorry darling. I lost my Great Aunt over a year ago now, but I still mourn the fact she is no longer part of my family landscape. Clod, Dani, Sky & MoreThan, thanks for your kind words. Dorothy had is wrong. There was no need to go to Oz, she should've just got her pretty feet down the Cellar. There's no place like it. |

No, I was talking about how there were 8 people online before, but only two were on visible mode. The rest have all ticked the 'invisible' box in their profile.

We just had a thunder/lightening storm with hail the size of marbles. The kids were out trying to catch them.
Shit weather here, and still too sunburned from Sunday to work out... think I'll stay home and eat (tacos) all day.

I use my-cast.com to look at the moving radar on days like this. Radar is showing individual, quick-moving cells of really violent T-storms this afternoon. I can see where it went through your area at 14:30-14:40.
And oh look, there's one headed right for me! But it looks like it's breaking up. |

Ooh, a really nasty cell hit just south of Gap, PA and west of Cochranville.
A lot of those Amish folks are going to be without electricity for a while. |
