Oak - no worries. I did a bit of that myself on here
I have few if any friends I can talk to about such issues. They're too personal in a way. I appreciate TE for things like that. Seriously. I really value the opinions and insight here.

Marni, it sounds like your FIL could benefit from some in-home services or at least someone to give you some respite. You can't be "on" 24 hours a day.

Our newest spammer sure has some interesting diction. Yikes.
Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

Thanks for the support, Blueberry and marni. I took the post down, it was a little much even for me, but your understanding means a lot to me.

working on it- hopefully at least one day a week starting in January, and full time in May when I am slated to do a cross country ride to raise money for breast cancer (mississippi river from New Orleans to Lake Itasca (it's source) in May 2012.
Dare I say that I am quite looking forward to january? And to May and une even more. My next oldest sister may be doing the ride with me. She was supposed to do the Southern Tier with me two years ago, but had a double hip replacement instead. She says she is working hard on her trainer and swimming.
Both Dad and himself are starting in on the sullenly resentful guilt trips but I am ignoring them. After a year and a half of unremmiting care for FIL, I feel that I have earned this.
Thanks for the positive thoughts.

Sounds like everyone is dealing with Family issues. We are working to get my mom moved , but her Landlord wants out sooner than we had planned. Thankfully, we've got the key to the new place, just got to get her and stuff the 180 miles between the two places. At least I won't be stuck driving a Cargo van around Memphis in new years. And dealing with my brother and his clan who thinks they need mom's furn and car (no, we need them to pay down those bills). Ah, they joys of knowing which relatives of knowing which relatives you can trust and which you can't.![]()
