- I was off for two weeks, a mandatory shutdown that the school district does every Winter during Christmas and New Year. My DH went back to work Monday. I took an additional week for me. A week of doing what I want. I usually take time and think...
- I had a dream last night. The beginning is vague, I somehow got asked to take an elderly infirm lady back to her house. She had to use the bathroom and needed help walking as I helped her maneuver through her bedroom to the bathroom, she struggled...
- The Christmases, birthdays, Easters, Thanksgivings that we have missed with those of us with Grandchildren? Is it natural to keep on counting or Is it healthier to try and stop? I stopped counting the time that has passed with my EO's once I...
- When my ED was little my sister bought her an Easy Bake Oven. She was too young so I put it away. I forgot and when I remembered she was too old. I told my DH that had to be the reason she estranged from me, what kind of a mother could deny her...
- I was talking to my DH and I know there are, I think, 3 motivating facts for betrayal, lust , greed does anyone know the rest?
- I grew up in a dysfunctional family dad not there youngest of 4 my oldest sister was 19 when I was born. I grew up like an only child and due to estrangement on my mom's side and my Dad's family being less than model citizens I didn't grow up...
- I received a text from a phone number I don't recognize. The text started with "I just wanted you to see your Granddaughter" on so many levels that pisses me off. First off excuse me for not doing cartwheels because you sent me a picture of MY...

- I have a Bloggie it's a video camera. Is that the way to leave messages for my grand kids when they are grown or is it better to leave written messages that will last through time and technology?
- I haven't heard from my ED in any way since last January it's been two years since she walked away and took my son and grandson. Almost a year ago she emailed me a cold email saying I owe her money (1,000.00) and she wants me to pay it. She said it...
- I now realize the estrangement changed me forever. I will never be trusting ever again. The cruelty and coldness I received from my own children is life changing. For some reason I now dream nightly of my ED I hope this will pass as all the other...
- Happy Mother's Day to all the amazing moms on this site be good to yourself especially today
- Since the estrangement I have panic attacks. I can't sleep I get "weepy". I have trouble at times concentrating, remembering. At times I feel detached or like I'm "different". I get angry and I feel like running away and say "F" it to it all. Anyone...
- So I did something I promised myself I would never do I looked on Facebook and I read a post from my ED's SIL that she used to hate now she writes how much she looks forward to her visit and how much she loves her and looks forward to spending...
- I was thinking yesterday about my ED's choices in life. She chose her in-laws whom for the most part she did not like and for most of her relationship with her husband has been treated like an outsider, all for money. Money that provided her with...
