grannyrose

thanx guys and gals....just work hassling me because i now have a disability which requires an appropriate parking area....and they say i am not allowed to use said areas.

12:36 am

VolleymomDee

hugs rose

12:37 am

VolleymomDee

charming... what happened to helping one another... absurd rose

12:38 am

jillibus

why the H not, rose?

12:38 am

grannyrose

dee, my doctor and the local coucil have both given me a disabled parking permit...work says it does not apply!!!!!

12:38 am

VolleymomDee

why??

12:39 am

grannyrose

am going to first ask for it in writing, then equal opportunity's board are going to be invited by me to participate in the bun fight

12:39 am

jillibus

what kind of work is that -- why do they think they supercede the doc and council?

12:39 am

VolleymomDee

no way you cannot win..

12:40 am

grannyrose

*shaking head* i don't know, jilli....it's driving me nuts.

12:40 am

mrpresident

they are just bullying you rose... stand up and say no

12:40 am

VolleymomDee

plus, it's just a parking place... what on earth is their big deal...nuts

12:40 am

jillibus

tell the media, rose

12:41 am

grannyrose

dee, work does have a point in that the land is "private" property, guess they think they can make the rules....like H***

12:41 am

mrpresident

yes, go to current affair... they will do it for you... I can help you there

12:41 am

flosey

good suggestion jilli, bad publicity for them

12:42 am

mrpresident

private property or not, they have to supply a parking area for your needs

12:42 am

mrpresident

it is the law

12:42 am

VolleymomDee

most parking lots are private property in the states, but disability tags still apply

12:42 am

grannyrose

jilli, if my direct confrontation doesn't work( and i promise to be reasonable and calm) then i have a few media ideas which will set them spinning

12:42 am

jillibus

great, rose!

12:43 am

grannyrose

mrp, will call as i advised you, and if i need direction, i promise to ask

12:44 am

grannyrose

12:44 am

VolleymomDee

12:47 am

12:47 am

jillibus

latin for king is rex

12:48 am

jillibus

but I got it! NBT!

12:48 am

VolleymomDee

WTG!!!

12:48 am

mrpresident

i can't believe my MIL is listening to his bulls**t... she walked out on me now and the hospital is just mortified. They will call her and let her know what he is doing... it is just awful... all alone again.

12:48 am

grannyrose

jilli, it's the plural form with the 3rd letter changed

12:48 am

mrpresident

then again, his family are 'ostriches'... what did I really expect??

12:48 am

SamanthaJoy

OK, I just caught up with the chog for the first time in days and MR P I AM SO DAMNED SORRY

12:48 am

cybernan

hi everyone - this doesn't look too friendly!

12:49 am

flosey

think you're right nan

12:49 am

jillibus

rose, I figured that out with my misty remembrance of Latin -- thanks anyway

12:50 am

mrpresident

I am a fool and should get the hell away from them as fast as possible! But I love him, only I can't do this right now... he isn't himself at all.
He conned his mother, then told me my relationship with her is my problem... F me huh?

12:50 am

VolleymomDee

so sorry you are alone mrp

12:50 am

mrpresident

thanks sam

12:50 am

grannyrose

yay, jilli...not so misty apparently

12:50 am

jillibus

mrp -- don't pay attention to what he is saying when he is not being rational

12:51 am

SamanthaJoy

What a nightmare you've been going through.

12:51 am

VolleymomDee

definitely agree with jili... sickness is talking, not his heart and soul

12:53 am

mrpresident

dee, i am very alone now... it feels awful to have been left some money on the table and my MIL just leave... all cause she believed his crap

12:53 am

mrpresident

jilli, he rings me all the time, telling me I am irrational!! I am struggling

12:54 am

VolleymomDee

surprised they are giving him access to a phone

12:54 am

jillibus

mrp, can you get some counselling yourself?

12:54 am

VolleymomDee

usually they don't allow access with outside world for a time

12:54 am

mrpresident

i am in every kind of bad way right now

12:54 am

jillibus

me too, dee.

12:54 am

VolleymomDee

u's are: un 6, 4, 6, 7 ur 4, us 4, 5, 5, 6

12:54 am

SamanthaJoy

You're being called by someone who is, literally, incarcerated in a facility for mental health problems, who wants you to know how irrational *you* are?

12:55 am

mrpresident

dee, he is lying to his mum, saying he can get day passes and come home and work and look after his family and go back at night... it is all rubbish

12:55 am

VolleymomDee

a counsellor or pastor might be very helpful to you mrp

12:55 am

dart001

fireworks

12:55 am

jillibus

of course you are, dee.

12:55 am

VolleymomDee

wtg dart! and hi

12:55 am

flosey

wtg dart

12:55 am

mrpresident

she is believing him and when she tells me what he is saying and I say 'NO' it is not true and he needs help, she turned on me.

12:55 am

jillibus

wd dart

12:56 am

flosey

you'd sure be better off without her there!

12:56 am

SamanthaJoy

In all fairness, I wouldn't want to believe it of my child either, but she's not doing him any favors.

12:56 am

mrpresident

i think so flosey... she is in total denial herself

12:56 am

VolleymomDee

she is being illogical ... drs should educate her... surprised they haven't

12:57 am

jillibus

I meant mrp -- of course you are in a bad way -- you need a sounding board who is not involved

12:57 am

SamanthaJoy

As long as he's not fooling his doctors, though, (and he's not) then she won't be able to do him any harm

12:57 am

VolleymomDee

dart, could you list e's, pretty please... I am one short (2nd column 3rd one down)

12:57 am

VolleymomDee

definitely agree with jil

12:57 am

mrpresident

he said he wanted to leave the facility, and she asked me if i would take him back and I said 'no, not right now and not without him completely coming clean', and i asked her, 'would you take him like he is now?' and she said 'YES'.... so I told her to!!

12:57 am

jillibus

but sam, she is harming mrp :(

12:58 am

mrpresident

he is totally fooling himself

12:58 am

dart001

eg 4....en 5,6,7,5,6...er 4,4 eu 4

12:58 am

mrpresident

if need be, i will get him sectioned.

12:58 am

jillibus

of course he is -- I believe that's typical.

12:58 am

SamanthaJoy

I know. But I'm assuming that Mr P wants what is best for lickety in the long run, and I'm trying to give hope there.

12:58 am

mrpresident

i promise that won't be pretty and i will be hated by his family., but if that is what it takes, that is what it takes.

12:58 am

jillibus

sectioned?

12:58 am

VolleymomDee

have they come up with a specific diagnosis yet, mrp?

12:58 am

mrpresident

yeah, held against his will.

12:59 am

VolleymomDee

ty dart!

12:59 am

mrpresident

dee, i know nothing! i am not allowed to be involved till Wednesday

12:59 am

cybernan

need that bottom corner r

12:59 am

SamanthaJoy

Something that other people have mentioned, Mr P, is a great idea; find a professional to listen to you. The babble chog is great, but you probably need some one-on-one time qith someone who will just listen.

12:59 am

VolleymomDee

re 5/14 nan

12:59 am

dart001

re 5,14

1:00 am

VolleymomDee

a's please dart... pretty please

1:00 am

mrpresident

and if i am not wanted on babble... i will go

1:00 am

jillibus

someone who has dealt with such matters before. There are consellors here available through Community Services -- surely there must be some where you are, mrp.

1:00 am

grannyrose

mrp, good advice, re one-on-one counselling

1:00 am

VolleymomDee

dart001

1:01 am

SamanthaJoy

Not wanted here? pshaw. You're a part of this place. It wouldn't be the same without you.

1:02 am

VolleymomDee

totally missed the ad's duh

1:02 am

jillibus

1:02 am

cybernan

TheLegend

Hang in there, MrP...things DO have a way of working out...:)

VolleymomDee

1:05 am

jillibus

mrp, I think you need a real, live, big hug. A little while ago I was a a funeral and had a meltdown afterwards, hiding in a corner. Somehow a local counsellor saw me and quietly came over and took me in her arms, where I sobbed. Not a word, just comfort. It was wonderful.

1:06 am

flosey

but stay with us mrp, here you know you have friends

1:06 am

mrpresident

will go for a little bit, do some washing and cleaning and contemplate my future. Illing as it is, I have children to account for and they want nothing to do with their father... that hurts so so bad

Maybe all three of you should see a counsellor, mrp.

1:07 am

there is absolutely nothing stupid about you mrp

1:07 am

Griffums

mrp, the only thing I can add is not to look too far ahead. All of this will pass. It will. And today you do not have to know how that will happen. The only way out is through.

Crying and hurting are COMPLETELY RATIONAL RESPONSES to what's been happening

Remember how much he has cared for you in the past.

shdy have just spent a fair amount of time talking to her, and mrp to me, if the truth be known, both of us just need to have how we are feeling acknowledged and validated

good morning all. That is it, rose... just being heard and validated.

1:19 am

I use words like that, which is scary. I told someone i could never use Twitter because of my propensity for words like nevertheless â€” and propensity.

1:21 am

yes, it's amazing how much can happen in a short period of time. very glad to see you. Still can remember you and mamabear helping me finish my very first grid!!!

1:22 am

we had a lot of fun, Griffs :) How are you doing?

1:22 am

shdybr8

i got an e-mail from the mastiff rescue people, they want to schedule a home visit. Can't bring home a new dog until the others pass, but we are getting close. The pic in my profile is about 6 years old, i think?

1:23 am

Griffums

I'm okay. Experiencing a lot of loss and hopefully growing from it. Deciding to pursue my passions without apology. Things aren't always good, but they are always completely real.

1:24 am

shdybr8

I have a 14 year old, and 13 year old, both large dogs, their life expectancy was 9 or so. Bear is really getting old, I imagine he's about 110 or so.

1:24 am

sprite

great, shady. Looks like there will be a happy mastiff, lucky for being adopted by you.

1:25 am

Griffums

Love the old ones, shady. I adopted a 12-year-old golden retriever today.

1:25 am

sprite

wow Griffs, that is marvellous. Not easy, but of great value!

we bought Bear some stairs today, to get on the couch, on the box they had a picture of a 10 or so pound yip yip climbing my Bear's stairs!

1:26 am

shdybr8

In that case, I love you griff

1:27 am

sprite

you guys rock

1:27 am

Griffums

:))) One of the passions I was mentioning.

1:27 am

shdybr8

i told the rescue people that i prefer a younger dog, but will also take an older one who needs a place to grow older comfortably

1:28 am

sprite

lol was seriously wondering why resque didn't work, and that while we were talking about resque dogs...

1:28 am

shdybr8

Bear is 14, takes 200mg of Rimadyl every day, and gets a shot of Adequan in the hip at my discretion (he's getting one tomorrow morning)

1:29 am

Griffums

I've been doing some canine hospice stuff. My last adoptees were 16, 12 and 14 (and now 12). Brain cancer, leg amputee, jaw amputee. I love this stuff. My tripawd is a lab/mastiff mix.

1:29 am

sprite

rose, how are you doing today?

1:29 am

grannyrose

well i be darned,,,,he4 i am looking for another re word, and have them all LOL

1:29 am

shdybr8

sprite, finish the thought?

1:30 am

sprite

I should learn to spell, shady... it isn't resque, it is rescue. So it isn't it the grid.

1:30 am

grannyrose

spritey, not so bad, been to church, done a week's worth of folding, ironing, and sorting....dinner is on, and so far pain free

1:30 am

Griffums

I love to live in a world where someone actually irons.

1:30 am

grannyrose

and you, my friend?

1:30 am

sprite

oh wow, great going rose! I hope you are proud of yourself. Well done!

1:31 am

lol.......who irons these days?

1:31 am

rururocks

you'd be pressed to find many though griffums

1:31 am

shdybr8

i don't think i'm strong enough for that, griff, I am trying to stare into the face of my 14 yo son actually being ancient, and he is not going live much longer, very sad about that

1:31 am

shdybr8

hey ruru!

1:31 am

grannyrose

AND i am 8 1/2 weeks cigarette free, another 3 1/2 weeks and you can classify me as a NON-SMOKER. wheeeee!

yeah granny.. that's great

1:32 am

rururocks

hi shdy

1:32 am

shdybr8

high five granny, i'm down to 2 or 3 a day, but no weeks free

1:32 am

Griffums

Yes, shady, I know about that. Losing my big guy 11 years ago was the hardest ever. It's been a spiritual transformation for me, really, and I don't care who thinks that's crazy. Ruru I see you have the starch as always.

1:32 am

sprite

yeah, doing ok. Sleeping better now, with a bit more self discipline. And the therapy issues are being sorted out, so soon back to therapy.

1:33 am

1:35 am

hi jilli

1:36 am

jillibus

sprite -- sorry I've been out of touch with you -- didn't know you'd had problems with therapy

1:36 am

grannyrose

spritey, the way i look at it, you buy cheap, iron to keep them looking good, buy them dear, iron them because you paid so much .

1:36 am

rururocks

It's always fun in punville jilli

1:36 am

Griffums

Happy to talk to you privately on that shady, if it helps - I do pet grief stuff too.

New little ones, though, my cat Fang died last September, July 1 we adopted Tony and Cleo, they are cute as can be

1:37 am

one of my therapists seems to need therapy herself, jilli... has been rather upsetting.

1:37 am

Griffums

I just put all the wrinkled stuff in the dryer with a wet towel. I bow to your evolved state.

1:38 am

sprite

brrrrrrrrroooommmm brrrrrooooommmm rose!

1:38 am

Griffums

...but then I also wear pajamas to work

1:38 am

sprite

oh I wish I could find work that would allow that, Griffs. :D

1:39 am

jillibus

being a therapiost must be very difficult

1:39 am

Griffums

That's great, shady. You couldn't pay me to raise another young one of ANY species. Sprite, it's required (they're scrubs, not jammies, but they're just as fetching)...

1:39 am

jillibus

being a therapist too

1:40 am

shdybr8

k, Griff, not sure about what you do for a living, but I also wear pajamas sometimes to work, I do research most of the time, love the dress code at my house

1:40 am

sprite

yes jilli, but dropping your issues on your client isn't very professional

1:40 am

grannyrose

naaaahh, spritey, let me introduce to the wonderful world of motorcycle racing....

1:53 am

sprite

lol... always eager to learn something new. But motorcycle racing... to me it is loud, absurdly dangerous, and I am scared of people who are watching just to see accidents happen.

1:54 am

grannyrose

spritey, just watch the skill, such a joy to see

1:55 am

hm you are right about that, the skill of the racers is amazing.

Glantarell

3:24 am

rubyfoo

yay for that!!!!!

3:24 am

Glantarell

but he won't agree to drop the asking price on the house

3:24 am

Glantarell

or move his stuff out until it sells

3:24 am

rubyfoo

what a jerk!

3:25 am

Glantarell

or pay his share of the mortgage when he goes travelling for 7 months at the end of october

3:25 am

Glantarell

jerk is correct

3:25 am

rubyfoo

can't your lawyer force him to pay on the mortgage?

3:26 am

Glantarell

we have overpaid for the last few years because i wanted to own the house more quickly, so there is a surplus

3:27 am

Glantarell

the mortgage will be OK for 7 months, but i am concerned that if he can't get work when he comes back, then he won;t be able to pay (if we haven't sold)

3:27 am

Kallia

goodmorning ruby and glan

3:27 am

Glantarell

3:32 am

Glantarell

3:32 am

Glantarell

he still has several keys

3:33 am

Kallia

have you got that one O top right?

3:33 am

Glantarell

but when i am inside the house i have the key in one door and the deadlock on the other so he can;t just 'appear'

3:34 am

Glantarell

Glantarell

rubyfoo

3:48 am

Kallia

snarl but uglier lol

3:48 am

rubyfoo

a nasty computer geek, maybe?

3:49 am

Glantarell

possibly - or it could be a verb to describe the lurking done by husbands LOL

3:49 am

Glantarell

he is snurling around the garden

3:49 am

rubyfoo

or our response to it

3:49 am

Kallia

5:33 am

negativeneil

yep. :) I was stuck on a very easy 5-letter word yesterday though. My last one left to find. Saw all the 8 and 9 letter words early... for some reason, didn't see that one for looking, for the longest time! Strange how that can work.

5:37 am

debjed

i only have the obvious one for the top row e...... do you have clues there neil?

5:37 am

negativeneil

Sea bird, deb... do you have that one?

5:39 am

negativeneil

Oh I'm sorry! Man. I'm not awake at all.

5:39 am

negativeneil

Yes, it does.

5:40 am

5:43 am

debjed

5:45 am

negativeneil

Kind of... subject to change.

ursh

more than your best you cannot do

5:56 am

negativeneil

Huh, mrp? I don't think so!

5:56 am

Norma

Stop beating yourself up and accept you can only do your best ... the best for you and your family

5:56 am

negativeneil

Come on, you're going through enormous grief and stress right now... don't be hard on yourself. :(

5:56 am

negativeneil

Everyone understands that.

5:57 am

mrpresident

5:57 am

mrpresident

hi norma and ursh and neil... thanks for support

5:57 am

negativeneil

Ok? But I doubt I'll agree with your self-assessment.

5:59 am

negativeneil

Which date, mrp? Oct. at the end of the log?

6:00 am

mrpresident

i guess some people are just vultures looking to pull me into this as the root of all of his problems. yeah, cause I MADE him drink and do drugs... yeah, my fault entirely.
Neil, look at chat... just before flip yesterday... only a few minutes before.

6:01 am

mrpresident

I have never had issue, but this is sick.

6:02 am

negativeneil

mrp? Let me just say that no, you weren't the one being what you said. Not you, no. That's all I'm saying here.

6:02 am

Norma

There are always people that enjoy other peoples misery just ignore them and put it down to their ignorance....

6:02 am

negativeneil

I'm just... stunned.

6:02 am

negativeneil

But from what I've heard? Can't say I'm really surprised.

6:02 am

negativeneil

But to see that? Man.

6:03 am

mrpresident

i am more than stunned, I am crucified

6:03 am

negativeneil

Yes, Norma. Usually miserable people. mrp? Do you want to meet me on YIM?

6:03 am

negativeneil

I'm still logged in there... just checked.

6:03 am

mrpresident

indeed neil... some people on babble can't hold on to their own problems enough to pass them onto others in their own nasty way.

6:04 am

negativeneil

No shit. On or off of Babble, there are always going to be some people like that... fortunately they're not the majority.

6:04 am

negativeneil

Most people do their growing up long by the age that person must be.

6:04 am

mrpresident

neil, my puter died, I am using lickety's laptop and don't have google or anything. I can only chat via FB

6:05 am

Hi there, crosshair. How are you doing today?

4:53 pm

stidmama

okay, I am going to head out again. down to 13 now! see you-all later! *poof*

4:54 pm

gapeach

I'm so proud of you, Soodle, for losing weight. I know it isn't easy. I need to lose about 30 pounds....having to stay in the wheelchair makes losing weight almost impossible. Damned doctor won't order more physical therapy for me....I need to be back on my crutches.....will have to ask another doctor. That's all of the complaining. It is abeautiful day and I'm fortunate to be alive.

4:54 pm

LeslieAnn

ok back with 9 left. may be asking for 9 clues. :)

4:56 pm

crosshair

One good thing about babbling on the tablet is that when in landscape mode i can do chat and everything else,but when i flip it around and it is in portrait mode i just see the grid only with the onscreen kb on the bottom and can thumb type

Howdy peri

5:12 pm

gapeach

Yes, Stidmama, I've been in a wheelchair off and on after 2 strokes in '02...had polio in rt. leg when I was 2 years old....went with my life, very active until the strokes in 02. Vertigo is mostly the problem there are days I drive and days when I won't....don't want to take the chance of hurting someone or myself. All things considered, I'm OK.

5:14 pm

stidmama

oh peach, I didn't know. I am glad it's not life-threatening, but how frustrating to be sidelined -- sometimes when my hip is bad I've needed a wheelchair.

stidmama

I like Andy Rooney -- he is about the last of the major network people to actually sometimes say things that are inflammatory, determined to get people to think about things. I liked the one where he talked about all the junk in his kitchen drawers... it was so much like my experience when I went through my own kitchen!

6:27 pm

jmcnrick

6:35 pm

Dorens

Book Doctor Gwen

gortmold

btw cremains - cool word, did u make it up?

10:27 pm

gortmold

starts with us, and means moss

10:27 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

cremains is not a new word, just google it. been around at least 30y

10:28 pm

herinfernallady

Book maybe I meant to say we are all mad here

10:29 pm

gortmold

yup u r right gwen, you can even have creative cremains placed in fanciful ur4s

10:30 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

(my mom was a volunteer with a funeral watchdog org for long time)

10:31 pm

gortmold

what an awesome occupation. whateveronearth do funeral watchdogs watch for?

10:31 pm

Jellen

Okay, still need one word for NBT...2nd column 4th row E, please?

10:32 pm

gortmold

*gortmold envisages body swaps, incomplete cremations, not-quite-dead burials*

10:32 pm

herinfernallady

Maybe the dogs were on Zombie guard duty

10:32 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

watchdog meaning they try to prevent abuse by funeral directors of their clients, like, for example, when funeral directors lie and say "you have to buy a casket even if you're going to cremate"

10:33 pm

jmcnrick

back

10:33 pm

herinfernallady

You mean to stop body part swapping?

10:33 pm

Jellen

Hi, jmc

10:33 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

such an org could go a long way to prevent similar fraud by car salespeople

10:34 pm

gortmold

lol herin, i guess I bought the lie. all the cremations i've seen were in caskets. without a casket seems a tad gruesome

10:34 pm

jmcnrick

eg4

10:35 pm

Jellen

Thanks, jmc

10:35 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

but a $6000 casket or one designed to burn rapidly and cost very little? (for example)

10:35 pm

SeaSpray

how does the volunteer org get access to the funeral homes business?

10:35 pm

SeaSpray

just curious

10:35 pm

Pint1

Un 6/24 and un7/36? Thanks

10:35 pm

gortmold

oh yeah, that makes sense gwen

10:36 pm

gortmold

do volunteers sneak in in corpse make up, then spring up on the table and say, "surprise! you've been busted for overpriced coffinry!"?

10:36 pm

herinfernallady

Someone I know's funeral was about $80,000

10:37 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

the org my mom was with would help people find funeral directors who were not in habit of pushing $6000 caskets on grieving families who sometimes make poor decisions when grieving

10:37 pm

jmcnrick

lies pint and the lying lyers who tell them

10:37 pm

jmcnrick

that is a sad story herin

10:37 pm

SeaSpray

hope it was a movie star herin...geesh

10:37 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

un6 and 7, synonym for false

10:37 pm

jmcnrick

i was made enough about all the stupid costs for my mother to bury her cremains next to daddy

10:37 pm

herinfernallady

No just a regular person. They had a lead or steel casket and wall internment. He was only 20

10:38 pm

jmcnrick

in a grave we already owned

10:38 pm

Pint1

Thank you JM! I only have 4 to go and was stuck on those!

10:38 pm

jmcnrick

10:40 pm

SeaSpray

10:41 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

10:42 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

10:42 pm

gortmold

10:42 pm

SeaSpray

10:42 pm

jmcnrick

10:43 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

all the unitarian universalist funerals i've been to have also been cheap. in fact, i've never been to a UU funeral, only a memorial service (there's no body at a memorial service)

10:43 pm

herinfernallady

My friend wants a funeral for her 21st she is a strange critter

10:46 pm

jmcnrick

*gives book a bonnet to protect hair*

10:46 pm

herinfernallady

Yep. As I said she is a strange critter. Maybe she want's to bury her past as she transcends to adult hood.

10:47 pm

your surname tor, is that anything like munchkins?

11:40 pm

stidmama

anglican priest, mrp?

11:41 pm

mab

I agree, MP

11:41 pm

mrpresident

catholic priest

11:41 pm

mrpresident

hi stid :)

11:41 pm

stidmama

call the parish and ask for home visit

11:41 pm

mab

do you have a church you go too?

11:41 pm

stidmama

In the U.S., churches are seriously understaffed and priests rarely make home visits any more, but it is still possible.

11:42 pm

mrpresident

yes, but it is too far today to go to. i can't drive

11:42 pm

mrpresident

hmmm, think i will do that

11:42 pm

stidmama

Instead, they usually send out trained lay ministers. But if you ask specifically for the priest it is still possible.

11:42 pm

MPittore

hospitals usually have a priest on call in the US

11:42 pm

mab

oh yes, parish....

11:43 pm

torgone

We're mostly fairly tall, mab ..

11:43 pm

mab

are you wearing pointy toed slippers right now?

oh mab...you peeked!

11:44 pm

stidmama

tor is wearing sparkly red pointy-toed slippers... *grin*

11:44 pm

mrpresident

thank you stid... am overwhelmed today

11:44 pm

mab

they would go nicely with the tin foil hat.

11:45 pm

stidmama

anyway, I have to be up EARLY tomorrow. Tom is now sharing the virus that stidkid brought home, so I am going to drive him to school early and then go on to my sub job for the day.

11:45 pm

mab

oh, mrp, you poor thing.

11:45 pm

stidmama

oh -- mrp, there is a website I used to go to, hold on a sec. It might be comforting to you, but I have to find it.

11:45 pm

herinfernallady

Mr PRes you could contact St Vinies

11:46 pm

stidmama

http://worldprayers.org/ it's got meditations from all over the world, and often I find just what I need there.

11:46 pm

mab

St. Vinny?

by stid - have a great day tomorrow

11:49 pm

mrp do your court systems have a section for women and children or a family court office that could put you in touch with help?

11:49 pm

11:49 pm

well, it would be comforting to have a clergy person visiting one.

11:49 pm

herinfernallady

The hospitals help too and so does Centrelink but not sure if they can help on your public holiday

11:50 pm

MPittore

any crisis centers or womens shelters?

11:50 pm

mrpresident

thank you all

11:51 pm

i am not in crisis right now, i just need money and a house to live in and some stability for my children

11:51 pm

mrpresident

oh, and food would be good

11:52 pm

MPittore

((mrp)) take it one day at a time or one hour at a time or one moment at a time...but maybe if you contacted them they could point you in the right direction...it wouldn't hurt to try

how frightening, mrp. I'm so sorry for your troubles.

11:53 pm

mrpresident

i can't really do much here... my husband KNEW he was in a downward spiral, he KNEW he needed help, he KNEW what he was doing.... when he got depression, he should have checked himself into a facility..... not NOW... not after all that has happened AFTER HE KNEW

11:55 pm

herinfernallady

mr Pres I don't know if my link will help or not you can always look at Centrelink online too

11:55 pm

mrpresident

i am every kind of grieving right now... cause he KNEW and was sneaky and lied and did everything possible to hurt this family...

11:55 pm

mrpresident

i have to go... need to go cry for a while

11:56 pm

MPittore

try not to think about what could have been...you can only think about the present and the future and keep trying you will succeed

11:56 pm

o-o

The past cannot be changed. What may happen also may not. The only bit of control people have is what we may do now to get on the path to recovery.

11:57 pm

MPittore

yes...recovery is within reach even if you can't see it at this moment it is there

11:58 pm
