It's good to hear from you, Terri. I'm sorry things went the way they did, but I'm glad you have some peace and quiet now. Best wishes to you and your family.
Thanks! We did find a place to live today in Murrietta Hot Springs near a church I've always wanted to belong to. Temecula is real nice and the rent is great. We're going into a two bedroom for a spell then trying to rent a nice house. My husband is going to make great money. He is now working for JPMorgan/Chase bank taking care of their forclosures. He was in the right place at the right time. We just have to beg and borrow until his paycheck in the middle of the month. My cousin is willing to help.
Having experienced many exciting times with in-laws in the past, I feel your pain.
Hope things get better for you soon!
OMGosh! Give'me a hug.
Damn it, Dork, you've had it tough enough for a while.
I'm praying for ya, because you have some good times heading your way. Keep your head up, you have lots of folks here who care for you and yours.
I feel like such an ass with my petty gripes. You have helped put some things into perspective for me. Thanks for the slap, I needed it.
I'm wishing your family the best, Werri. I can't help but feel you're all gonna be better off now. Karma is heading your way.
It's been heck since July! I almost had my husband commit me to the funny farm but figured I could get that here and decided to stay out. Our sanity came back when we got the hotel room only problem is we're spending our deposit money. I'm pretty sure it'll work out. My life always does.
It feels so much like home to be called Werri and dork. It feels like brain candy.
Man, Terri, you and yours are overdue for some good times. I've got a truckload of hugs to keep your family cozy until those times get here.
Maryn, wishing the fates were kinder
My whole life has been like this. No one believes me when I say so. When I was little and I would get breaks from the abuse, my soul, wanting to live in peace, rested in the quiet times and that's where I learned to get my rejuvinations. It's the same for me today. For now it's being safe with my family in a hotel room. I'm getting lots of reading done and getting the chance to make a few blankets for people. It's great therapy for me. I also croched some like a mad person.
Sending thoughts of abundance, you, and health your way.
You're the best!
Aw, sorry to hear things are so tough, Werri.
I wish it built boobs but I'll take the character. And besides it gives me more material for my book.
Sure hope things work out for you and yours werri. You deserve happiness and prayers and good vibes sent your way. ((((((((HUGS))))))))
You're reps are keeping me alive, girl! I so love you!
I'm keeping you in my thoughts Terri. I hope things turn around for you soon.
I'm sure we are headed for the end of the storm but it ain't over yet!
Did you guys see that avatar. Why do I feel like Chinese right now? Yowza!
(((((((((((((huge hugs)))))))))))))))
Been there. Done that. Survived it.
You will too, sweetheart. hang in there.
I need to hear that. I keep telling my husband that there will come a day even in this year, given all goes well that this will be behind us. We're just not at the end of it yet. Just near.
((((((((((((((HUGE HUGS)))))))))))))))))
Things will get better soon.
We're all here praying for you.
I need prayers too! I believe in prayer! I put us on a prayer list and prayed to a few specific things and got a 100.00 gas card and we got a place to live today, given my cousin helps fill the gap on what we've had to spend so far.
I'd say its a blessing you're out of that place. I bet it makes you appreciate the peace of your own little family so much more. Good Luck with everything, it wil get better.
Don't know if it's your style, but you should have a look at the book Vinegar Hill by A. Manette Ansay- talk about some dysfunctional in-laws.
The heaviness of being there lifted as soon as we left that house. They have cut all ties with us which is sad because someday they will need us. Perhaps they will say their are sorry. Perhaps not. If there is a reunion it will be on my terms this time. I will keep that book in mind. I have time to read now that my back is injured.
Hope things work out for you. Nothing is worse is living in a bad situation and feeling trapped by it. Good luck to you and your family
I hate being trapped. It's the very reason I asked my husband to take me to a mental hospital. It would have been more like a vacation for me. But the thought of leaving my kids with them frightened me.
I know it's little comfort right now but, as my grandmother used to say, this too shall pass.
I'll be thinking of you, and right now I'm wishing that you lived near me so I could do something real to help you. Take care, sweetie, and try to stay positive. Much love to you right now, as always.

Oh, I love hearing from you! I can't wait until I get my blankie out and snuggle with it.
It'll pass is the only thing getting me through right now. I know things will be back to normal soon. Oh, I wish we could have tea or a beer together. Perhaps we will on the chat room here. But you'll have to stay up late. So maybe tea. My nights will be free so I'd like to do a chat room thing like Arrow Queen did.
Thank you, everyone for extending your love and thoughts. You're a wonderful community!
Hugs and kisses, Dorks!
Much love!
