Guest guest Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Hey all,I'll bore ya all and fill you in...Couple of weekends ago (I think 2), went up to Vermont with my daughter for 2 hockey games. 5 and a half hours and it wasn't even a tournament. Just 2 games...This weekend, on Friday, same kid (, 13) and I go up to Dedham, MA, just outside of Boston for President's Day tournament. They'll have 2 games Sat., 2 on Sunday, and depending on how well they do, 1 or possibly 2 on Monday.I'm at the rink now and they recently (obviously) went wifi. It is a real plus for me. I'll be here 2times tonight; once now for an hour--6:20 to 7:20, then I dash home and get my daughter for her practice which is 8:40 to 9:40--pretty late for a school night I think! So, I'll at least get some emailing done.I feel considerably perkier since my new psychiatrist doubled my med. At times I feel a bit racy, but for the most part, I think my body is adjusting. Was surprised to find out I have to wait til March 29 for an appointment with my neurologist. It used to be so easy to get in to see him; he must be swamped with new patients or something. I had been putting off going to see him, as the last time, he really busted my chops about gaining weight. I may have taken off some since I saw him last, but definitely nothing substantial, so chances are he'll ride me again about it.Marriage counseling is going along...not sure where we're going, but at least we're both trying, at least I know I am. He is surely not in touch with his feelings, like many men, so I don't often get much feedback from him.Believe it or not, my friend, Lynn DID call me back. It wasn't til she got off the phone with me that last time, that she had heard after that I said I loved her, and it was too late to say anything as we were both off the phone at that moment. She thought I was ready to give her the 'kiss off', as I sent her a Valentine e card where I sent it early and didn't sign love you or anything. There was nothing warm and fuzzy about my card, so we BOTH were out in left field about what was going on. She is I think, well, I know, she is a bit tired of my inability to DO something more for myself. I think that my self-esteem is so shot that it's hard for me to feel/believe I deserve anything better, so the kids continue to talk down to me, curse, etc. I'm really working on it. The kids have GOT to learn that they cannot speak to me in a disrespectful tone, or with nasty words. Working on it.Anyway, Lynn and I are back again. Solid. One little problem for me is that she feels emailing and phone calls are enough, or should be enough. I, on the other hand, would love to SEE her in person, have lunch together and play Scrabble--2 of the things we do together. Anyway, I don't think I'll win her over on that point.Well, I think perhaps this is too long. I do so enjoy reading and catching up on other's lives. I treasure each and every one of you,love, Kate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Kate what does you counselor say about the way the kids treat you? It might be good for them to get some counseling. If this continues they won't have respect for their wives, bosses etc. How to they respond to their teachers? Have you tried punishing them? If you answered this already I am sorry but my memory is absolutely horrible. You are in my prayers.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Kate, I am so glad to hear things are good with you and your friend Lynn! It sounds like just a misunderstanding after all:)I don't know how on earth you can do so much running with the kids in sports. I'm exhausted just hearing about it. lol I'm glad to hear you and your hubby are working on the marriage. If things don't work out in the end you'll know you tried. But if the marriage does work out what a blessing that will be! love to you my friend SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 That I need to be firm. Consistent, and punish them with things that will 'hurt' them, in non-physical ways, i.e.--take a cell phone away. It works. So I keep using that tactic and it's getting better. I just need to stay on top of it all.Thanks, nne,love, KateTo: mserslife Sent: Wed, February 16, 2011 7:04:42 PMSubject: RE: update/kate Kate what does you counselor say about the way the kids treat you?
