Steptalkers, please send me (and us) your prayers, good vibes, light and love.

SD17 Powersulk is currently waiting in ER for a Dr to check her out for "heart palpitations".

A little background (reminder), Toxic Troll BM is a total disease-chaser and managed to fake a head injury where she was paid to sit home for a few years, then rewarded a settlement of 21k. Shes got all kinds of diagnoses and what-not. Allergies, migrains, depression, anxiety, a heart murmer, the list is lengthy.

9 months out and had "the Talk"

Skid is starting her last year of high school (yay), and this is the 9 month countdown (you know how it goes! Theres the 10 year, 5 year, 1 year and then the less than 1 year monthly countdown.) We had "the Talk" and I didnt initiate it! It happened after work on the day before SD17 PowerSulk CPS starts her last year of high school. Husband is sitting in the man cave watching his tv show and sipping a beer. I typically join him for a small moment and we chat. One of the reasons that Barnacle friend irritated me. Its a time for US. To TALK.

Tripping Out

And NOT because we are in California! lol. Thinking of my East Coast steptalkers.

We are planning and going on a fun little trip happening this weekend starting Friday. Its for 3 days and its south 800 miles. Husband scheduled a fishing trip and we will have a few hours together. Its San Diego, where I went to college and lived for 15 years.

She is permitted

The light at the end of the tunnel of dependent skids is approaching!

Sd17 Power Sulk has finally gotten her permit to drive! A year and two months after signing up for the course and then sitting on the completed 10 chapters with 1 to go. I am quietly ecstatic. Good. Now she can get a job and get a life.

And Just Like That...aka breakin up and then makin up

I signed up for Hulu because I wanted to re-watch the Sex In the City series, as well as True Blood and a few others. Ive been experiencing a lot of feelings of nostalgia lately, probably because:

1. I had a birthday the beginning of the month. I tend to celebrate quietly and think loudly. Where am I at, Where am I going, Where have I been. Where do I want to go from here. Taking stock.

power sulk needs my help registering for her last year of high school.

I gave her all that last year. When she registered last year.

After her treatment of me, Im no longer helping at all. Im so mad.

After all the disrespect, I get a text from husband that power sulk needs log in credentials and I need to give them to him so he can give them to her.

eff them. I told him I would help if I got respect and apologies, however I dont need fake apologies.

He said he is ready to get the paperwork ready to "get rid of things", meaning the marriage.

It was a mixed bag of nuts. As always. Never really great or good without SOMETHING. Lets see...

June 21 Anniverary - So I get half day off and am relaxing. I check the temps and its in the 100's where we are planning on spending our anny watching a concert by a 70-year old rocker known the world over as that "other singer". Husband has not gotten the day off due to unforseen circumstances. Im chilling and in no hurry.

No flies are appearing in the ointment so far...but wait!

5 years...

Today is husband and I 5th year wedding anniversary.

Yesterday I was enjoying a beverage with a GF and told her "back when I met husband, I was 135 and HAPPY". She got that distinction.

What are we doing for our 5th? Working and then heading south to a place that will fry our brains in 102 deg ft weather. To listen to music. Which I organised and set up.

Strange symmetry?

So, Ive been trying out a new therapy and one of the things I need to do is have power words for when I need to feel strong. When I need to get out of my own head and protect myself. When I need to activate and reinforce my boundaries. Im choosing Respberry for todays power word. Perfect new password for my new guest account.

So, my last Blog, it was made apparent that husband placated me and did not do anything remotely resembling an apoloy or make any indication of making changes.
