Thanks Pud, you got it. After that last craziness, it really shook me up; all day today I've been thinking about your toxic comment, and I think you're right.
I am growing every day in my patience, calmness, happiness, and every time I'm around W, those all take a blow. So I dunno why I would want to be around someone like that, at least how she is right now.
I've talked about backing off before, but never have I seen how much the talking and stuff damages my calm, and man is it a wakeup call. Still processing this, but it's an interesting revelation.
