Thanks Gypsy - wise words again. I am always telling my mom that life is about choices and we should be responsible for our own choices - she is often in victim mode herself. I guess I need to start listening to my own advise.
I have been doing really well recently - however I guess I just hit a bump in the road again. I totally agree I need to start MY new life, small steps, and some good constructive goals. I know I give them far too much of my brain time. Imagine what I can do if I turned that energy on myself and my sons.
As much as I would love to, I never respond to her texts. I wont acknowledge her that way. I have learnt to give myself some time outs if I need to. Walk around the garden, do some washing or whatever it takes to take my mind off it.
Thanks again for the advice - I really appreciate it.
((( back at ya)))
p.s. will work on a new thread name for myself.
