Hi .

You are so sweet.

Yes , today has been a whole lot better. Away from crap that basically does not concern any members of my immdate family, and that is my utmost importance. I have a wonderful husband, magnificent kids ( well most of the times as they are teenagers , at times they are not that magnificent at all ) and an ausome amount of friendship that is displayed right here on this group - I'm just so damn lucky, I count my blessings everyday and thank God that I'm surrounded with such terrific people in my ife.

Yes, at times, family , friends can put undue pressure upon you, but only as Mare rightuflly said " if we allow them to cross our boundaries ". Yesterday I allowed for othrs to cross my boundaries, so I can only blame myself.

Today , has been a hard day at work - yes, I'm stil working.

I';ve not had the chance to go for a walk as I know that I should be doing, so tomorrow night we had better go for an extra long walk. My husband and I walk 3 - 4 nights a week about 6 kilometres per night. Howver as Sharon said to me , I had probably better start some gym work outs to get that weight really moving again.

I did however prior to work today made up a big casserole of bean soup so that it will be ready for dinner .

WE ARE WHAT WE REPEATEDLY DO

Thank you for your friendship.

Cheers - Mimi

Good to hear that the day has at least been a bit better for you. It is hard; I have the same situation in my family, my uncle's partner. She is an emotional parasite that has latched on to my Mama. I would dearly love to surgically remove her, but I actually think my Ma loves the whole needyness of the mess at the moment. Once she tires of it, I might be able to talk some sense into her.
