No, of course not. But also recognize that kids aren't just temporary. Nor are they unimportant. Just ask my mother - she's taken each of us back into her house as adults for a few months when each of us was going through a life crisis and needed sanctuary. And we're always welcome back, crisis or no crisis.

Maybe your mother is also trying to fix things with your father not just for her sake but yours as well?
Thanks for this!

When you're out in a bleak place in Ireland the wind sometimes sounds like a woman keening. Not really a scream, but it will send shivers down your spine...
They say the banshee's (literally 'fairy woman' - bean sí) scream foretells the death of an important person.

10C is 50F.
Where I live it is around 20F-40F during the winter - it usually goes colder for a couple of weeks in the dead of it.

totally unrelated to anything else on the couch right now but then I am just feeling like a person apart from the world at the moment, all DAY today I have been filled with an un-nameable anger; some hateful, vile, horrible, boiling kind of rage that has no reason for being and I don't know what in God's name I am supposed to do with feeling like that. It is easing up a bit since I got home from work, so I am glad for that. But there is no acceptable outlet for this (well except for possibly banging on my drum as hard as I can, but I'd worry about breaking it) and so I must just let it burn itself out inside of me I suppose. Sigh.

You could just talk here. Anything at all. We'll listen. It make release some of the pent up anger.

That sends s shiver down my spine just reading that!! Still fascinates me though.

My boys names are Gaelic in origin and there is Irish blood in my veins. Guess that explains the draw to it. I'd love to go to Ireland day. It calls to my heart.

I would love to!! It feels like a home that I haven't been to yet. It truly calls to my heart.

So can't explain that!!

Doesn't need to be explained. Belonging is a feeling to just bask in. Yay! I would just live to see the castles there, and the vast, open land. The sea!

Apparently, Swedes say the Muppets Swedish Chef sounds Norwegian.

I guess he has a point. The search for perfect safety is like the search for any other kind of perfection: doomed to disappointment.

All we can do is take sensible precautions and hope for the best.

WARNING: SPECULATION

I wonder if most of your unhappiness comes from perfectionism? You certainly demand very high standards of yourself.
