Welcome to the Couch! People of PC Psychotherapy (Part 2)

Driving to the mainland with my 2 (adult) kids today. Should be a good distraction. I realized that I haven't gotten dressed or left the house since last Sunday.

Wikid-I hope you have a nice time today.
Granite-I say send that email although that's probably not a wise thing to tell you. She may get mad but she will get glad.
Lillie-I'm sorry you were up all night in a bad headspace.

Hello everyone-I have alot to read since I was not hear for a few days. Just want to pop my head in say hi and everything over here is status qoe.
I'm going to try to get out for a little bit today.

morning all.i didn't send the email .it is way to frightning to defy one of her boundaries.guess I'm not so brave after all.oh well who cares anyway right.

i hope yoou have a great day with your kids today you deserve it

how are things going for you?

we do.

Hairballs are worse than the litter box? (which my dogs also love and are very protected behind a locked door with a little tiny cat door leading in)

Morning all!

I just cleaned up cat barf if anyone is interested. Major ick.

This is why I have a blue plastic pony.

What? No blue plastic pony poop?

Wikid you live on an island?? how cool!

After reading this thread, now I believe the pink sparkly unicorns come in and eat it!

LOL, we do seem to be off on a tangent dont we?

Is it any consolation if I tell you that I have often wanted to email your T and insist she let you email and write to her, and that I hate her? I've never met her even and I hate her.

Just to post my whine of the day, we went to Chicago over spring break to look at Northwestern for my son. While there, my husband used my truck to drive into Chicago and didn't have money for the tolls. There is some automated system I guess you can use and they send you a bill. My husband is in charge of paying bills because I am dyslexic. [Has anyone else ever noticed what a cruel name that is for a problem that causes people to jumble letters and numbers? It looks stupid even when it's spelled correctly.]

Anyway, long story short, the toll bills came in my name, my husband did not pay them. So, there's a fine involved and instead of like $5, it's now $65. AND he didn't pay that either so I got notice that MY license is about to be suspended.

I hate this man more than I can say right now. Trying to figure out if it's better to kick him out and continue to live next door to my ***** sister, thief brother in law and crazy mother. Or just put up with him, take over the bills and have my mother in law help me because I cannot see the numbers correctly, and be able to move sooner.

@MKAC I think you should divorce your husband and marry your mother-in-law! LOL

I have actually discussed with my therapist how stupid I feel that I am staying married because I love my mother in law and am afraid of losing her.

When people on here talked about mother issues with their therapist, I would actually get nauseated with the thought of 1) a female therapist for me and 2) having a mother issue with her. Then I realized it was probably more like my thing with my mother in law. She is the only older woman I've been in a relationship with, who I felt I could trust and who cared about me. I just cannot handle the thought of losing her.

My mother in law actually suggested I let my husband have this house because he gets along great with my family and that I move in with her.

I just want to say I sleeping until the butt crack of noon!

Hope everyone is well.

That was on my agenda today too. Well I slept until just before noon but my cat was sleeping on my feet so I couldn't disturb her lol

people think i am nuts because i wont move if the cat is on my legs or lap lol

I can't do it! They just look so snugly and cute. How would those people feel if the couch just tossed them of when it didn't feel like being there anymore lol
And my cats sitting with me calms me.
Silent tsol is a crazy cat lady on the making

The solution is to make them sleep inside your cardigan - that way you can carry them arround a bit more easily.

(Pic taken with my laptop camera a couple of days ago.)

Awww...that's cute!

In my house we call that CIL syndrome. Cat In Lap. It's a get out of jail free card. If someone has CIL they don't have to get up and the other person has to bring them anything they want as long as they have CIL. It is considered highly offensive for the other person to deliberately do anything to disrupt CIL syndrome.

See, that's how I want my T to carry me around all weekend - just get a big ol' hankster-size Snugli, pop me in, and then go cut the grass and whatever else he has to do. He's always bragging about how STRONG he is, how he can bench-press this and dead-lift that. Put your money where your mouth is, buddy! Is that too much to ask??

ETA: I guess this should go under the Embarrassing Questions thread, but you know me! Actually, I once said that - "but you know me!" to my mom, and she goes, "Uh, yeah, i've known you all your life now...!"
