I love this picture of you and Bruce. It is so sweet and so typical of Bruce not to put his hand up to hug you...ha ha. Story of your life. I still think it is very sweet, and for all of his faults he does have some great qualities also. Just like my Len. Like I said sometimes you can take them and sometimes you want to run in a complete diffent direction to avoid and get away from them. Sounds like I had a good weekend right? Well part of it was and part of it was interesting.
It seems though when the chips are down, that someone comes along and says just the right thing to get your head out of the noose it's in and set you free. The noose of self pity and low self esteem. Thanks for your posts, they were so sweet and thoughtful. I talked to Dusty also this weekend and we got some things sorted out that have been putting a wedge between us for a long time. He is such a great one! He is very enlightened in a lot of things. A very deep thinking man. He gave me some good food for thought, that and you virtually kicking my behind have helped me pull myself out of the cow holder and get on with life.
Ha, this photo was so fitting with how I have been feeling the past few weeks. Alone, separated from those I love. I have had a hard time feeling like mom was so distant ever since #1 came back in to town. Yes, she is there but she has her mind on other things. Really look at this picture isn't it so descriptive of my relationship with mom? I know now though that I am not alone... I have you and I have my sweet children...only a call away. Thanks for your great words of comfort and praise, not deserved but very welcomed!
Some are always there to pick us up when we fall, or hold us up when we strive for our goals. Love and support are key to being happy. Both given and received. I have been the recipient of being held up many times by those who really care. Those in this picture and Dan are my rocks, my rope, and my inspiration.
Yes we all belong together no matter what our circumstance or situation in life. We are dysfunctional to say the least, but bonded together to say the most. Unique, interesting, different, and diverse. It keeps life interesting! Like my wise son said..."Mom, you know we love you, you know we love each other. We all live very far away from each other...we only get together once or maybe twice a year. We all spend lot's of money on tickets and travel expenses to get together. We wouldn't make the effort if we didn't love each other and want to be together. Some families go years and years without seeing each other, if ever. They don't make the effort to get together because they don't really want to. We do! And as different as we all are, we have so much fun when we are together. Don't ever feel like we don't love you, because we do!" On that note may I say thank you from the bottom of my heart, the sides, the top and the inside of it too, for all that you do for me. For all that you sacrifice (money, time, food, gas, etc) to help me get to be with you. I am so very blessed to have you in my life, to know that you there and to feel of you deep committment to family. You inspire me everyday of my life, I want to be just like you only be me! I am searching for who me is, I am desparatly trying to find what makes me happy and am so glad that you are along for the ride. I am happy, I am grounded, and I am safe. Love you tons
