Gripe of the Day post!!

I hope you can make some sense of what I sent to you...that is why I put sticky notes on them to kind of give you some direction on each of the photo's. A lot of them were out of a couple of different issues of Vanity Fair, but I had a couple of other magazines laying around too. I love Vanity Fair because the writing is good and the photography is exceptional!!! I am anxious to see what you have done with the stuff....

Well that's it for now Hugs!

Here's my gripe.  Thos who have ex's can totally relate.  We are supposed to keep each other apprised of what goes on in our son's lives.  Well, that means I need to tell him because he is n't ever around enough for anything to happen when they arew ith him ir they call me themselves.  Anyway, Dusty has started seeing a counselor for issues such as I see him being too smothering of girls he dates.  He always wants to be with them or have them be with him,  Not good.  He also hit his brother way what is beyond normal.  I asked Dusty if he would want to talk sto someone and he was really liking the idea.  I called the ****head and told him this was going to happen.  Mind you, Dusty has alread had two appointments, that is how long ago I called him.  He calle me up today and starts to tell me that Dusty doesn't meed a shrink.  Dusty's problem is that I have abandoned him.  HELLO?????  Me, the one whi is ALWAYS there.  I told him he was way out of line and he said I could believe what I wanted to but he was right.  I said a few not so nice things to him about his brain capabilities and hung up.  If I wasn't so mad, I would be laughing hysterically because anyone that knows both of us knows that I am the one who has always beeen there and knows what is happening.  ARGHHH!!  That is my gripe  STUPID< STUPID< STUPID ex spouses Jillie

Hey Jillie just wanted you to know you're not alone on this one.  I got a quote for ya!  I got it from a book on African American women who migrated to the North([part of The Great Migration).  Didn't mean to get political on ya, but whether we're black, white, poor, rich, ex's can be f*ckn *******s.  Here's the quote: "when a woman takes the blues,
She tucks her head and cries;
But when a man catches the blues,
He catches er freight and rides."
Basically, when a woman goes thru it , she deals with it right there and then and a man moves the hell on, most times physically, then mentally. This is not every man who is an ex, but most.  Kudos to those who  don't abandon their responsibilities and  keeps in constant contact with his kids whether he is with the mom or not! Your kids know who is doing "the best they can!"  You all will be fine! P.S. You got "me, myself, and I." (Beyonce')

I am totally right there with you guys. I liked that quote and yes, you are right- ex's can be f*ckn *******s.

I don't post enough but I do lurk. I will join in although the day is almost over. Maybe I will feel better if I just type it out here.  1. The cardiologist telling my husband he had a 50% chance of living through last night. Dumb ass. My husband's heart functioning at less than 50% and the likely hood that he will possibly live another year.  There is a lot more but it's pretty difficult. I want to thank each of you who post here  because I get a great deal of support from each and every one of you and you are very appreciated by me.  Lauren
