Untitled Hyena Chat thread part deux! - The Continuation

[MATTERHORN]

SORRY!!!! Im just trying to think about this trip coming up.... and the fact that my mom is coming in that week... It will be the one year annv. of my dads death, and she wants me to go to the cemetery with her. And I really dont want to go. REALLY. Im not ready yet, and it is not something I want to do with the kids, and it is not something I want to do with my mom even. She doesnt understand, and is trying to guilt me into going.... Whatever, she can take my Grandma or my Aunt. I know it sounds selfish, but I am not ready yet... and trying to force my hand is not going to work on this one. Okay... ENOUGH of my downer.

Oh, you can be a downer anytime!! We'll just be your uppers (not to be confused with udders!) Do what you feel is right in your heart. IF you aren't ready, you have to tell her that. She has other people she can go with so DO NOT feel bad!!

No, thank Gosh a table and two chairs slowed it down before hitting the window. It knocked everything down though, it was crazy it went so fast, I swear it started up just like CA Screamin does!

Andrea

Even though it's not really funny what happened. I'm imagining the picture of all of this happening in my mind. Your faces at that moment must have been priceless!!

So that's where they got the idea for that ride. The suits just followed Lynn around the park one evening.

DORK!!! I always get the bashful ones!!

Andrea

Thanks for chatting with me. My husband is starting to grumble... time to go. I hope to be around again--stalking Andrea.

Goodnight Elysha (did I spell that right??). Tell your dh that we will be happy to provide him with a priority chart so he can understand where he fits in all of this!

Are we all caring about windows and craters and not the fact that if any of these charges were being brought against us, my DS would be dead right now!!! GEESH!!! Then there would be funeral costs which trumps everything!!! GEESH!

Andrea

Not a problem, I have a Costco card and they sell caskets wholesale. We've got you covered! J/K!!

 

[staley7580]

staley are you still naseaus?

A bit. It seems to be going away little by little. I have been getting really bad heartburn though. Cant win.

aww its ok staley....you are 100% right on this...NO ONE should try to pressure you into doing something you dont want to do ...especially this...you will go when YOU are ready and you shouldnt go until you are...

Yes, I have to say it was crazy and all happened so darn fast. But I seriously LMBO when I think about it now!!! The crazy things my kids put Lynn through, she'll be lucky if she makes it another year from all the scares!

Andrea

Thanks, I told her that... she told me I HAVE to go. No, no I dont. She told me if I dont go now.... I will never be ready. Well so be it! I dont know if she has a bad memory, but we split the ashes, and I have some here at my house.

I fell asleep on the couch a few days ago, and dh got out my dads Military shadow box and tried to put it up... Being nice or whatever, and all I had to say t him was No. Not yet, and he totally got it. I dont know why she doesnt get it?

See you could be like me, my mother's ashes sit in their little urn in the living room. I don't have to take the kids to visit her, she watches cartoons with them every morning!

But on a more serious note Megan, your father is in your memories and in your heart. The cemetery is just a place to pay your respects. Kind of like how God is inside of you, not in a church. Maybe your mother wants to go, but needs you to go with her and hold her hand. But if you're not ready, then don't push it, go when you are ready.

speaking of the secret bathroom...when alex went in there and took pictures i about busted a gut


time to bust out the priority chart...elysha no one on this side cares about grumbling husbands jk....have a goodone...good to talk to you

I just loved the people that were going to use the bathroom, Alex was trying to take a picture, they backed off, she backed off, then she went back up, they started in....it was rather funny. And the rest of us are just standing there laughing!

Okay, so you're letting me borrow your Costco card for the next ECV mishap, right?? TIA!

I KNOW!!!! Thats exactly how it would have been with us!

aww its ok staley....you are 100% right on this...NO ONE should try to pressure you into doing something you dont want to do ...especially this...you will go when YOU are ready and you shouldnt go until you are...

Thanks! you guys are totally making me feel better about this. I havent even mentioned it to dh yet... but knew it was coming when my mom asked me to go out to lunch with her. and WHY does she bring this stuff up in front of Alex? HE HAS EARS!!!

Thats what my preg. books all say, so I really think I need to head out and get some.

I do have a little urn! It is up on my computer desk next to Lego Darth Vadar... I thought they could be buddies. Plus I needed something to separate DV and the Ewoks. I thought grandpa would be good for that.

I think I will call my aunt and have her go, she is much better at that stuff then I am anyways. Thank You.

megan you need to tell your mother not to bring up "adult issues" around him anymore...if she cant do it over the phone or out of babies ears then not to say it at all...and thats all i have to say on that subject

Of course he's part yours!! And I fully plan on giving you joint custody!!

Andrea

 

[tinkermell]

Hi Alex!!

We're just away here tonight!!

 

[Alex2kMommy]

Thanks, I told her that... she told me I HAVE to go. No, no I dont. She told me if I dont go now.... I will never be ready. Well so be it! I dont know if she has a bad memory, but we split the ashes, and I have some here at my house.

Staley, you are so right. This is not something to be rushed. Dh's beloved grandmother (who was really like a mother to him) died in '92, and he still has never visited her grave. He just can't bring himself to do it yet, and I honestly don't know if he ever will.

But what is the big deal? The graveside is for the living more than the dead, it's a place for those who grieve to go and pay respects and reflect. If it's too painful to go just yet, don't go, and don't let anybody talk you into something you're not ready for.

 

[MATTERHORN]

then somebody owes me some money or I will take a lifetime membership to DL and CA plus rooms whenever i want in DLH and GC

Yes, they do owe you something for that!! I'd even take PP!!

megan you need to tell your mother not to bring up "adult issues" around him anymore...if she cant do it over the phone or out of babies ears then not to say it at all...and thats all i have to say on that subject

I agree Meg (sorry, I think that's gonna stick now!) my family was always trying to discuss everything that went on over the summer in front of the kids and I had to tell them numerous times. Do not be afraid to tell her that, you are protecting your kiddos!!
