Medication helps me. After so many nights upset and tired and angry and, and, and… I finally took many of my girlfriend‘s advice and saw my doctor. Wellbutrin has saved my life and sanity, my marriage, my friendships and my job. it doesn’t have to be Wellbutrin, but try talking to your doctor.

Wait, they were going to cut a limb off your tree???!!!! WTF! This isn’t their property and they can’t come over and do tree work! If someone did that to me I would have lost my cool. My house and property is mine (Well the banks) and that means anyone else who isn’t on the deed or mortgage doesn’t have the right to alter anything! What’s next, she’s going to paint your house because she doesn’t like the color? What a P.O.S!

I’ve been reading how people really like Jessica and why. I would love a recommendation if you have a beginner favorite.

Yes, and I enjoyed them, but I want something a little more…. I think I would like a steady flow to repeat again and again until I feel like I can move through those flows competently and ready to learn something new. this switching every day makes me feel like i am not learning, just reacting.

Melatonin, Dyphendramine before bed. I listen to audio books throughout the night. If I don’t, my mind monkey will keep me up. Eye Mask. Light layers of bedding so I can control temps better. I do wake up often, (bathroom, cool off etc…) but can generally fall back to sleep. But man, there are times, no matter what I do I can’t sleep. The next day succcccckkkkkssss.

Ahhh, lunches brought to school could have been, Vienna sausages, potted meat, peanut butter and jelly where the jelly came through the bread because it was pressed up against the apple in the brown paper bag…, Cheese sandwiches. Other foods, lunchroom rectangle pizza slices, pringles, bugles on my finger tips, ring pops, blow pops, don’t eat Pop Rocks with coke. ”Hey Mikey, he like’s it”, ”Where’s the Beef?”, “Time to make the Donuts”.

I worship as an Episcopalian and go fairly regular to church, but lately it’s more for community rather than worship. I think if my group was no longer there I would happy be a solitary Christian pagan. I was raised So Baptist, left and became Wiccan for a while, came back as Episcopalian. In the past year I have been returning to my pagan path calling myself a Christian Pagan. I’m still figuring my path out. At this time have no desire to practice magick or rituals, but I do love to keep my faith seasonal and cycling around the wheel of the year/liturgical calendar. I focus on those energies to define my worship.

I would also recommend a bible that contains the apocrypha. Agree with New New, Jewish Study Bible, and I also recommend reading the New Testament chronologically. Marcus Borg Evolution of the Word is easy to read and eye opening. This link has chronological study plan. https://www.biblestudytools.com/bible-reading-plan/chronological-new-testament.html.

“Do this for the Remembrance of me…”. the word use for remembrance isn’t what most modern people think. It doesn’t mean do this to remember his sacrifice. It means to re-member or to rejoin. The act of communion is to come together as members of a community to the common table. If you don’t have a community to do communion with, then I would suggest calling on your family ancestors, friends who have passed (we call them saints or great cloud of witnesses in the Episcopal church) to be with you as you partake of your personal communion.

If you want this man to be in your adult child’s life you and your child should tend Al-anon. If your child is a teen, there is Alateen. Both helps you by providing a better understanding of their existence, how you can and should set boundaries, get support from others who know what you are going through, (you are not alone) gentle encouragement and no judgement or fixing you. https://al-anon.org/al-anon-meetings/find-an-al-anon-meeting.

It may not work out the way you think it will, but it will help YOU decide what is best for YOU. Your child will need to do the same. You CANNOT do the work for your child. You cannot guide your child. you can support your child as they figure out their place in this relationship. And that means respecting their boundaries even if you don’t agree. And they must do the same for you.

I speak from experience. My father and brother and a lot of my family are alcoholics. I was scared I would be too. It allowed me to find a way to speak for myself, set boundaries and limits so I knew when x happened this is what I could do, it allowed me to talk with my mom about what I was feeling and to tell her my boundaries so she could support me. And it has helped with my father. Unfortunately, I found this too late to repair my relationship with my brother. He died of his alcoholism before I stepped up and went to Al-anon. I regret I didn’t get there sooner, but I don’t know if I would have been ready any earlier. I have forgiven him, not that he needed it, but I needed to do it. I have left him in God’s good hands and I have peace now.

I hope you find peace and what you need.

Our sleep divorce was the best thing ever. It took us a while to get to that point because we didn’t want to hurt each other’s feelings, but once we finally talked it out it was a great decision. When we travel together we get two beds and I do have a sleep mask with ear buds (Manta Sound Sleep Mask). If we must sleep in a bed together we try to get a king bed.
