I'm sorry you had to experience that. My Mom was so angry at my choice she chose to have nothing to do with my wedding. She made my sister do the mother things.

Well, it did make me totally committed to not ever doing anything like that to my daughters, no matter how much I might feel the need to protect them. And I have bottled up a lot of opinions over the years, because it is their life and it could be alright. Turns out in my situation, someone should have been a little more concerned about my future then hers.

I agree, it teaches us to let the kids go and make their own triumph's or mistakes. But, it's hard biting your tongue. ;)

Your mother didn't want to go to her own daughter's wedding? That's cold right there, I don't care what her reasons were.

She came to look good. But she was not happy. The funny thing is she came to love my hubby, as she saw what I saw, a very kind and caring person, even though he had a very rough childhood, his dad would beat him with his fists. It was as we were meant for each other, I had other abuse issues. We found strength and we had an overcome attitude, and be happy. I admit, I had therapy for a few years to work out what happened, it was not a family issue with me. But the PTSS followed me after my brother died at a young age. That's so many years ago, and I'm much stronger, and happier to have such a wonderful partner. As I have said, life is what it is, the important thing is to keep fighting to do better and get better. No regrets, and no sympathy....those demons are long behind me and hubby!

Be patient, as I know you will be, hold in your thoughts, unless he starts to get into trouble. You, and he will survive. Middle school is such a test for kids. Making new friends, go from class to class....that can be a lot of stress, with different kinds of teachers....puberty, hormones. I'm so glad I'm out of that. Wait, I'm not , with my pesky thyroid!:p:eek:

In 4th grade here the kids start to change classes. I remember we didn't until 7th grade but that was long ago.

Thank you, I am very happy on here. Hubby loves the funny pics. and videos. I call him in to see all the stuff on here, we get quite a giggle every day. Thanks to all for brightening our day. I always leave in a good mood. As far as blood pressure goes, it has plagued my family from my Grandmother and onward. One of those genetic things.

I loved talking to you too. I guess I have a very difficult decision to make. I got a call from the Doctor today. He went through all the blood tests and blood pressure values. I can't have more thyroid meds, it could cause me to have a stroke. I'm going to Disney and he says I can't do rope drop, or keep the kids or DD schedule, he want's me to relax. And I need to check with him when I get back. This is difficult for me, as I have been able to keep up. I know DD will do what the kids want, and I expect them too. How do I break it to her we will be on a different vacation this time? I've always loved the time we have spent with the GK and DD. I know she will be very disappointed, and hubby wants to protect me. What to do? Keep quiet or spill the beans. I don't want to ruin the trip for the GK and DD or hubby. Any suggestions? Should I just say I'm not feeling well and I need more rest? Any ideas from anyone will be very appreciated. xoxo

Your health is most important and I think everyone will understand the situation, so go ahead and spill the beans. Try to get as much relaxation in as possible, but that doesn't mean you can't do anything that's on the schedule, right? There may be disappointment, but of course no one wants you to try to keep up at the risk of your health.
