I'm obese - and you're suggesting that I advocate for healthy meals for kids? I cannot imagine putting myself in a position of being judged on a regular basis in that setting. It's kinda like T suggesting that I enroll in a bikini contest. I know he's trying to get me to work on being healthier, losing weight, etc. - but I'm kinda pissed at the way he went about doing it - manipulative, indirect and in a somewhat humiliating way. Grr.

MUE....(((hugs))) I know it must feel that way, but I really see it more as "
you're the nurturing type and I think you'd be great at this job" than "
you really need to loose weight". Men are oblivious and say the stupidest stuff. They don't think a-z through with each letter, they are more like you need z so lets just get there.

XT once got pissy with me at the end of the session, because I wasn't doing well. He said "why did you start off saying you were good?" I said, "sheesh Michael, I was prevaricating" He looked at me cross-eyed, and in seconds I knew he wasn't familiar with the word. I was totally embarrassed. Ugh. So use it with caution BPA.

No...you DON'T need her. What does she have that you need? Pain. Dead Weight. A Constant Reminder Of How She Effed Up Your Life? No...screw that...I DON'T need mine either. At this point THEY need US. And it's up to you how you handle that one. Girlfriend, you are far from crazy.
(((Jerz))) Thinking of you...sending peace and good vibes. I hope you can find something to focus that anxious energy on and distract a bit. Color or play with playdoh with those kids, that can be healing.
(((Chickie))) Wishing you safe travels. We'll be with you at your appointments this week. I'm bringing a safety pin so I can pinch you when you freak out.
