Backaches, Bimbos, and Breakups

[jfgk1987 303]

Fotos or it didn't happen, no ma'am.

These might actually be 5". I don't mess around!

My wife can stand on the step higher than I and still not be as tall as I am She'd do just about anything to be a couple inches taller. Well except where heals because she never learned how to walk in them and is afraid she'd break an ankle trying to learn.

Awww how tall is she?

This must be you and your shorter friends . I am only 1.5 metre tall.

I'm sorry you know the burden My Dad tells me she was diagnosed before I was born, I haven't ever met her as she was before. I have no idea what her favourite music is, or her favourite colour. She can't cook, she has memory loss. She tried to attack me last night because she wanted Dad to turn the tv off, she was threatening to break the tv ( she's done this 3 times before with a sledgehammer) I had to physically restrain her when she lunged at me. I felt rage.

It's exhausting. I'm tired and ready to leave.

*hugs*

I personally don't know these feels, but my mother and grandfather did. My grandma had schizophrenia, it was a sudden onset (I'm not exactly sure how/why it happened because I never asked actually, now I'm curious but I'm afraid to ask...) my mother would tell me she would wander off at night no matter the weather in her PJS (even during Hurricane Gloria), and she had come at my grandfather more than once with various things, the scariest being a butcher's knife, and the random outbursts, among other things. She did not like to take any of her medication (schizo, diabetes, high blood pressure), my mom said it was very tiring to force her to, and that ultimately killed her at 55. I did know her and I do remember her, my mother says that when I was born I was grandma's little ray of sunshine. I do remember her outbursts. Mental illness runs in the family (both my mother's parents, not sure about dad's because he's not in the picture), I take so much after my grandmother and my greatest fear is the same thing happening to me and I have my own set of problems already. I've put my fiance through enough as it is and surprisingly I haven't driven him away. When I go get him from Canada I'll warn him and remind him what he's getting himself into once more before we come back.

This must be you and your shorter friends . I am only 1.5 metre tall.

STORY OF MY LIFE OH GOD. Always standing in the back in school photos, and basically every photo with a group ever. SO JEALOUS OF THE KIDS WHO GOT TO SIT IN THE FRONT.

1. [Polish-Math mini-transgression overlooked] This makes me want to cry, too, si ma'am.

2. The chances of this approach zero, chin up ma'am.

Bedtime, zzz man.

No crying TB, you have many comment reporting to do!!!!

Winks I'm sorry about what you had to endure.

Thank you SAT, it's been a long ride, i've learned a lot about relationships, people, morals, and gained some wisdom. There is always an upside to every situation. No matter how bad.

Wow that truly is hard. At least I knew the person my mother was before that type of stuff started happening. And yes it could be truly exhausting dealing with someone like that. My brothers all left town, and I was the one that had to pick up the pieces and look after my mother. Funny thing is, while I was probably the closest to her before the break down, I was the furthest from her after the breakdown and I was the one who ended up being the caretaker. After her ovaries were taken out, due to cancer, her mental illness was not as bad. We'd been told that might happen only they referred to it as after menopause. It was still always there, but not bouncing off the walls stuff. Every once and while after that the person she was would come out. It was always nice to see that person again. I hope one day you might get a chance to see the person your mother was before her illness. And I totally understand the need to get away. I know I needed that at one point in my life also.

Can I just say, you are very brave and courageous for becoming your mum's care taker. It is not easy being a carer for someone suffering a paranoid mental illness. I hope that you gained a good sense of humour - i say that because my sisters, Dad, and I have talked about the fact that those who have the hardest life lessons and experiences from burdens have the wittiest, most twisted, and out there humour! When you have felt what seemed like the worst in life, a funny situation is just damn hilarious! Laughing gets me by, some friends call me "giggles"

Wiggles has a switchblade built into her wedding and engagement rings.

It's there for cake cutting! I'm not shanking my lovely hubby!

Is he wearing some woman's thong on his head?

We call them g-strings and I believe he's wearing one half of an over the should boulder holder/brassiere on his noggin'

I am always here.

I get to sleep in late because I'm cool.

End of discussion.

Went out for lunch, now stuffed....

Wiggles, I suck at words sometimes so I'm going to send you a hug!

I haven't worn 5" heels in a long time. I'm already taller then my husband so at most I will do a couple inches.

Another quiet day.

My oldest had to walk to work since his ride didn't feel like giving him a ride and waited till the last minute to tell him. Now if he only listen to his mother and bought a car a few years ago this wouldn't happen.

At least he has realized that this friend may not be reliable to get an apartment with.

Yah, such an irresponsible friend, better not share an apartment with him.
