I appreciate your post, CE. My confusion is often my undoing. Corri (I think) once counseled me long ago to keep asking W to repeat what it was she was saying to me, until I had time to decipher its degree of disconnection from reality. I need to get back on that track.
I think part of the problem is that I am generally so very willing to overlook others' flaws and let them do what they want, that I have trouble comprehending why I don't get the same kind of treatment. The example of W showing me her sheet of paper to prove that whatever purchase she just made came from "her" money is the exception, not the rule. Usually, I see some new box from Talbot's or Pet Warehouse or where ever, and I just leave it for her to open, no questions asked. Because, well, I don't care how she spends her OR OUR money.
Geeze... enough already. I feel like I'm trying to prove what a NG I am, and what a selfish beeyatch she is. You all already know that.
