> My beau and I had a pleasant meal (out) with my son, whose GF went to be with her parents who don't know they live together.
*gasp!* Living in sin? Hee hee. Well I guess we have to do what we have to do at certain ages in our lives. I hope she and her family had a nice time.
> We spent an hour or two getting to know each other again, and I decided that I might not be the mom-from-hell after all, because if I was, he (my son) wouldn't be so neat and cool. He has a full and happy life. What a concept!Get out!! You're not the mom-from-hell? Golly Shar it is wonderful to hear you realize that you did indeed have a positive impact on your son because otherwise he would not be such a fab. person. Yeah we are our own individuals but I do believe we reflect our parents and when we're lucky enough to receive praise and support and love from our parent(s) then it shows through us in the kind of person we become. (I do not give a fig that I didn't match any tenses in the previous paragraph.......too tired to care....my sincere apologies if my grammatical errors are offensive to any on this board of eggshell like civility)
I think you've just deservedly given yourself one of the highest compliments. I certainly give you credit for seeing that you've done good with the kid and to be proud of that. I am proud of you.
> I hope your day, Zen, was ok, too!
> SharOh it was something alright. Overwhelming, in a totally good way, but hell it was a ton of people. And such bizarre circumstances too! And yes I think there are 'connections' with family. ; ) It was a great time but I'm emotionally and physically drained from the energy it took to meet and converse with about 23-25 new people.
I'm grateful you and your beau and son had a good time together yesterday. I'm grateful that I have love in my life again. I'm grateful that my pdoc finally kicked down with alprazolam so I could handle yesterday with .5 mg of chemical support.
I'm grateful you're here still. Please keep trying to stay. I am.
