8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC Part 5

The therapist I talked to for DS ended up helping us gain a better perspective on the situation. She said that it is like going thru a divorce to the kids with the same behavioral issues. DS was acting out & had major anger issues because he was keeping it all inside. Once he admitted that he missed Dad & didn't like being the man of the house some of it got better. After DH came home we all had to go thru a reconsiliation. I had to get use to him being here again. DS was directing his anger towards DH but we eventually worked thru it & he realized that he hated Daddy's job...not Daddy. He then got to learn exactly what DH does & how important it is because he makes sure the plane is safe so noone else's Mom or Dad get hurt. I told him how hard it is for me & that I don't like his travel either BUT it is DH's job that lets me stay home with them. He eventually understood & is proud of his Dad now. I think we are back to the standard battle with an 8 yo now.

wow - that was alot to go through!!! We had talked about DH's job and his "evil boss" enough that DD knew who to blame!! - LOL! .... we had the added stress of the move - she acted out some and that is hard being the parent left to deal with it, but she mainly was quiet and depressed. I think she went through a little developmental stall too. It really gives you aspecial appreciation for being together.

I am feeling left out since I do not have an evil twin.

Although come to think of it, maybe I am the evil twin.

LOL
I was just going to say that... that I'm feeling left out but I'm missing the NICE twin, what you see most of the time with me is the evil twin.


(y'all better know I'm joking... don't make me get irate with ya)

Ok, so I've played ket-chup .

I feel guilty for actually turning the computer off and watching AI last night.

Your stories of how you met your respective spouses and engagements/weddings give me some hope. I'm divorced. You think getting engaged on April Fool's day and honeymooning in San Francisco during the Oct 1989 earthquake would have been a clue of the things to come. I'm a better person for it though. Now to only meet a Diney lover with some other criteria tossed in.

I'm sitting in my office with Buffett playing looking out of the forzen tundra of the company parking lot. Damn my relatives! They couldn't have gotten off the boat in someplace warm!!!!! OK-back to work.

Happy Birthday Brennan!

I shoveled my drive and walk to the ground last night before bed and this morning it had about an inch of frozen snow. Couldn't even pick it away with the shovel. Finally gave up and just sanded the heck out of everything before day care opened.

Yuck!
I don't have to leave for work for a little bit....so hopefully some of the ice on my driveway (that's a hill!) will have lessend..I have an auto start for my car...so I will have to do that early!

Just to let everyone know, I have unpublished the website for right now. I am sorry, but thought this was the best thing to do for the moment. I will post when it is back up.

No need to apologize, Lisa.

Just a thought, but maybe we should all take up the offer and go over there and post our usual fluff.

Or am I just instigating trouble again?

Last night I was rather steamed and felt like posting more than fluff, but managed to restrain myself.

 

[Verandah Man]

There is a show on right now on the Discovery Channel called Widening the Panama Canal if anyone is interested.

Thanks Diane, I put it on an am watching it now!!!

Missed the beginning.

Or, as my DW would quote, "He fell into my knife, he fell into my knife nine times."


Anyone else concerned that the banter went from [insert our love story here] to [insert stabbing and police report info here]?

Every good love story has a tragic ending........

I may be late but we had a very unique wedding.
DH and I had lived together for 11 years. We had 2 small children, owned a house for 8 years etc. Just forgot to get married along the way.
We had a Halloween party every year for my nieces and nephews that was coming up. We decided why not use that as an opportunity to get married.
I called 1-800-find-a-judge and arranged to get married that weekend. We did not tell anyone except my DH to be's mother. She is not the surprising kind. We all dressed in costumes. I was Arachania the Black Widow Spider Bride and my DH was Captain Hook. 1st DD was Minnie Mouse and Baby 2nd DD was a Disney Princess. All family dressed in costumes for our Halloween parties anyway. Well when the party was almost done, the doorbell rang and I said "By the way this is more than a Halloween party, it is a wedding". Everyone was screaming and laughing so much is scared my Judge Wapner type judge half to death. I mean it took a lot of encouraging to convince him we were not crazy to have a suprise costume Halloween wedding. It was perfect!
Now I am sure you have a mental picture of us at this point but we are very normal, educated, conservative family that just likes to have fun.

Great story! Thanks for sharing.

Let me introduce myself, I am Randy_Man and yes, I am indeed the evil twin of Verandah Man, so beware, you never know when I might stirke.

Oh boy - do we all need to get separate ID's for evil twins?

I don't think the Mickey Jail could hold that big of a crowd!

So... Ask Mark about Disney Jail.

My DH was in management at UPS for 18 years and although they are a good company, the higher ups that my DH had the last few years of his employment were horrible. He would come home miserable every day and the kids really started to hate UPS. So back in 2003 when we were on our Navigator of the Seas cruise - DH bought a voo doo doll as a souvenir in Labadee and as we are on the tender boat back to the ship - my DS who was 5 at the time was holding the doll and another cruiser saw it and said - WOW thats a nice doll - DS without even thinking - says -YEAH its my DADDYS Boss.... Im gonna be mean to him like he is to my Daddy. Of course we all started cracking up laughing but later when we thought about it - it was sad that a small child kept that bottled up inside. Thankfully now, DH has a great company and really nice bosses so no more bad feelings.

Hey There MR, does this bring back any memories from last August??? Dinner at Grills the night before we sailed away!!!

Good Morning Everyone,

Just checking in but have quite a few pages to read this am to catch up. Unfortunately, my internet is running fairly slow so it is going to take awhile.

Had my Cholesterol test this am. I guess I will live. Everything is right where it is suppose to be. Glucose was a bit high so they will watch that but everything else was great. Yeah. I was worried since I have never had my cholesterol checked and haven't always been the most healthy eater.
