Couch 65...Where all the fun is!

It's OK to disapprove of your mother's boyfriend, but parents rarely accept relationship advice from their own children.

PS
In fact, very few people accept relationship advice from anyone.

I think Healed meant dual...since her T's kids go to her school, and she sometimes subs in their classes.

I am home for a bit, trying to figure out a way out of going to see one of H's Jazz bands tonight. I'm just tired, it was a crazy busy day.

Sorry... Don't generally check for errors when posting, as we have seen! Lol.. Had I gone back and read I would have change to the with dual.

Oh ya.. And wiki was right on with what she said .

i amdrunk and have punched so many lamp posts my knuckles are blue how can i hide that

It's just after midnight. So it's Sunday. Father's Day.
I miss my dad so much.

Still it's totally freaky that he would just throw it out there like that. That would make anybody worry. Look it freaked out all of us so much that we couldn't even respond, we're like deer in the headlights. If he wants to say something, he should say it. Does he think you're holding back and not saying something? I mean, maybe ideally you would be strangers to each other, but hey stuff happens, and this is your job. You didnt choose a dual relationship. That would be different. This is paths crossing. Imo.

Eta- And I had a major path crossing in my past, where my t and her consultant said to just talk about it when stuff came up.

Mast, I am sorry you are hurting. We just passed the two year anniversary of my dad's death, and that day and father's day are so hard. My heart goes out to you.

.im sorry mast .maybe it would be good for you to go home and get some sleep if you have drank a bit to much.

Hugs for you mast! Sorry you are hurting right now.

Hankster.. He did mention that he worried a bit that I was holding back, or may begin to when our paths cross at school more. I assured him that I trust him, and he assured me that his kids are oblivious to anything and have no clue that I see him. Our whole session seemed disjointed and labored. He was just getting back into the office when my appointment started, admitted towards the end of the session that he was feeling like he was coming down with something. Just sucks that we had this kind of session and I won't see him again for two weeks... I don't know what I want to fix, but it feels like something needs to be.

Hey couch peeps.....these kittens are driving me crazy!! Love them to death, but they climb up EVERYTHING and want to chew on EVERYTHING. My house is their jungle gym.

I had no energy at all today. None. Had a decent night's sleep...yet I ended up eating breakfast and taking a nap....then woke up to feed the kitties...took another nap. I finally woke up around 3:45 PM. Crikey!

And even then, I had no energy to do anything. Threw in a load of laundry and headed to the store with my daughter to get her a new winter coat and a gift for my cousin's baby shower. Just made a chocolate chip cannoli dip and some choc pretzels for tomorrow. Now, I'm pooped and ready to go back to bed again.

I guess this is my body's way of catching up with me after a crazy few work weeks....crash....

Thanks, peeps. I wrote those posts on the bus home so I was home not long after, and only drank some water before going to bed.

I hope everybody's Sunday will be (or has been) good, or at least as good as possible.

Hi everyone.... had a really good day yesterday... My sons bd party was alot of fun and oddly not stressful cause we only had 4 boys come..

My older son had lots of nice things said about him at the xc team dinner although I wasnt there because younger son had plans and would be coming home before we would be back from dinner...

So I enjoyed a few hours alone...but didnt feel lonely... I enjoyed it... And once my younger s got home i even journaled... I forgot to set the alarm..i cant figured out if I fell asleep or if i dissociated but came back cause i was biting my tongue.... It is really weird...i dont feel groggy like when i fall asleep for sure and get woken up in 10 minutes but i felt mentally fatigued .....

Morning couch. At K's right now. Only been here an hour and 15 minutes and have already emptied the dishwasher, discarded old food, reloaded the dishwasher, cleaned the kitchen, swept and mopped the kitchen, foyer, and laundry room, cleaned K's bathroom, tidied up K's bedroom, folded laundry in the dryer, and put the clothes from the washer into the dryer. I don't know how I got it all done so quickly, but I did. I hope I am not entering a hypomanic stage.

Hi Mast/Apt, MKAC and Squirrel...

MAST/APT I hope your hand is okay...

MKAC... How are you doing

Squirrel...u need to save up that energy to use at your own place...

Good morning all, Mast I hope you are feeling better today.

MUE, not to mention those needle sharp little claws! My two cats won't let me clip their nails but still want to use my leg as a kneading spot.

Mastodon, good about the water last night, hoped that helped some overall. I try to get two cans of my flavored seltzer water each day before bed, the brain gets water no matter what and if there's a shortage in the body the headaches can be gruesome for me.

I'm liking that it is Sunday, will make a crock pot of chili here in a bit for this evening, guess I'll watch some football. We had some good looking weather earlier and I was thinking of going for a walk but it has clouded over now.

Funny story about my kids and kittens. The first five years that we lived in this house, the curtains in our living room kept getting pulled down. I saw the cats climbing them a couple of times, so I blamed the cats and got sturdier curtains, sturdier rods and ANCHORED those suckers into the wall in multiple places (had an anchor the rod in the middle as well). Curtains just kept coming down. Finally I just gave up and left the curtains off and the windows bare. We live in the country and no one can see in anyway. Just a few weeks ago, my daughter admitted she and my son had played games that involved climbing the curtains and they were the ones who pulled them down. LOL.

Mkac, that's funny about the curtains.

Lola, i'm sorry you are hurting.

Just ate lunch. Still waiting for K's half to cool so she doesn't burn herself.

Just got asked if I could stay until 7 instead of 5. Yay, 2 more hours! Not like I had any plans.

LC - I do not mean to be harsh, but some of it is, in my opinion, that you are still not making choices, decisions, finding what you like outside of going to be with w. Do you like the new job in and of itself? Do you enjoy more parts of the job than you dislike (no job is perfect) - if not - make different choices.
At the same time, it is not unusual to find that people go through the grind of life weekend to weekend or not in the daily living but in the expectation of some future event or thing. It seems to me that would be a hard way to live, but not, unfortunately, all that unusual.

T and I talk about this. My parents discouraged me from even wanting my own goals - whoever my future h would be would define those, and I would have to go along. It's just more of the "girls don't count" deal. Your bosses just want you to show up - they are not responsible for anything really but paying you, and you can use that money to support your goals. Having a mentor or a partner or even a t can help you define those goals if you missed out along the way - that's where I feel I am. Better late than never.

K is sleeping again. She's been watching Christmas movies on the Hallmark channel all day. She likes that channel. I think it is too early for Christmas movies though...it's not even Thanksgiving yet. Whatever!

4 hours to go. It's boring, but I want the money, so I will trudge through it. I wish I had more to do, so I could stay busy.

Slow day on the couch today. Been slow a lot lately. Where has everyone been? Maybe life is just really busy for people right now, I know it is for me.

No school tomorrow, Veteran's Day, but I still have work. C's mom needs me to pick him up at his dad's then bring him home and watch him until she gets back into town in the afternoon. So much for a day off, but I enjoy C, so I don't mind. And it pays well...$15 an hour, not bad for running programs and going on bike rides.

Well...I am off to let my mind rot watching TV.
