Don't thank me Abs, cuz my post wasn't to give you any advice. You can hold your own. There are many others who read our stories and the advice bestowed upon us....or the 2 X 4s.


Let me tell you an anecdotal. Recently at a X-mas party I was involved in a "lively" discussion about a bitter neighbor who refuses to be a part of our very small community. It came out that his bitterness evolved out of a request from him, to the town, to build a ramp to his house for his invalid daughter. Apparently the town refused to do so. As I listened to neighbors rail pro and con regarding his stand I could feel my pulse rise. I said some things. The next day I went to the hosts' home to apologize. However, they were amused. My HS friend's H said, "MZ, you were great. You were like a little bull dog when you said, 'I would NOT have WAITED for the town to build a ramp for my kid. If that were MY kid, I'D be out there building that friggin ramp myself!' and I thought, you go MZ!"

So, if we were at a party and someone called you a "manipulator," "co-dependent," "controlling.".....You can BET I'd say what is on my mind.

BTW, the town's people today would have built that ramp for that little girl. I would have made sure of it!
