If you communicate that you cannot handle what I am telling you, will not give comfort or maybe cannot give comfort, and draw a boundary line in the sand? I will honor that boundary line and keep the distance you ask for. Even though I comforted you for several days while you processed a loss I understand that you may not be able to do the same.

Wow, that does sound cranky-making. Glad you had back-up.

[fimbrethil]

The resulting fallout has been epic. I'm glad I had Howard there, too.

[fimbrethil]

Thank you.

Yay indeed.

I figured that's what was going on but I didn't want to call again and step over your personal boundaries. I know you value your privacy and I respect that.

It is good to hear from you.

[fimbrethil]

Seriously, totally honored to be a part of that day with you. Keep me posted.

I'm so sorry. Hooray for husbands with attitude.

[fimbrethil]

Yup. It's behind me now.

Hurrah for the Spousal Sort and his Attitude! Boo for the user ass!

Be gentle with yourself, okay?

[fimbrethil]

Oh boy, could we have a boundary conversation over this one. Now I'm in need of psychiatric help, according to him, because I had bags of recycling in front of my house. Um, snow storm? it was pretty surreal.

Yuck.

Glad H. was around.

[fimbrethil]

Me too.
