So, tomorrow is the day...the day the "Smith" family home belongs to someone else. The ex and I custom built our dream home in 1998 for our family of 6. It was such a happy and exciting time. He...

So this is why I no longer vent to dh about my kids. I apologized to my boss at our staff meeting yesterday that I didn't know yet what days I would need next month as I hadn't heard from DD31 yet. I...

So, no phone call from DD31...even AFTER I asked her on Friday to call me and let me know what days I needed to take off from work when she's here. I thought by putting it that way that she'd call....

I still get sad reading posts of estranged children and many things that are written I could say myself...forgotten birthdays, being slighted at the holidays, etc. I, too, hurt, but have put myself...

So, I had texted DD31 last week about skyping this weekend. We haven't Skyped since Thanksgiving. No response. I just don't get it. I'm trying not to feel hurt. Is it just his generation that feels...
