Never a quiet moment, eh?

Working out is healthy for me in the long run, but I'm not accustomed to being this tired all the time. Last week, I averaged about 30 hours at work, seeing as how I did a full day on Monday and have only taken lunch twice. And now that I'm lifting again, my muscles shake and tingle when I stretch. It feels very good. But like I said, I'm not

Tony, I know all of this pin on business is hard on you. You have a lot more going on than most people should at once. But please, don't be bitter towards mom. She has been stressing herself out too much to be at fault. All she talks about is this damn pin on ceremony and how badly she wants it to be the best for dad. We just recently found out, as you know, and she has been updating you and sissy the very second new information comes in. She's been depressed, stressed, and pulled every which way to make this happen and to try to work with everyone's scheduals. Sam's work is mad at him, Sissy is depressed, and you have all this work to do as well...And that's ALL mom can think about besides "Dad's wants". Dad wants General Rahlsten *sp?*, so they tried to make it work, but things aren't looking good and mom blames herself for dad's unhappiness because...I don't know, because she's crazy and feels like she has to please dad no matter what or they're going to have more problems and he's going to try and divorce her again. I'm convinced

Kim, you and I have both spent our lives treating Mom like an egg we're trying not break. We bend over backwards to excuse the hurtful, the painfully spiteful, and the selfish actions she has gotten so used to putting us through. Does this sound familiar? "I DO LOVE YOU! NOW GET THE HELL OUT OF MY FACE!!!!" Or how she stopped doing your laundry because we didn't let her pimp you out as the base welcome wagon for children between the ages of 18 and 7. And we both know all too well about that way she shouts "I'm sorry!" in a way that always lets us know that she isn't sorry. And the infamous "I don't care" response when she says 'yes', but means 'yes, but feel guilty'.

Shouldn't it be the case that our mother does what she can to spare OUR feelings and not vice-versa? I'm sick of this, Kim. Her total lack of concern for our lives sometimes scares me because the word CRAZY doesn't seem like a playful adjective anymore. NONE of us in this family has had it easy at all during our respective stints on this planet. What makes her

I see your point...I wonder what's going to happen...
