Yep Your Mr sure seems a complicated case, but generally most people after a life time, collect a lot of issues, with possible interactions and so everyone is somewhat complicated. You hang in there, but dont sacrifice your own self care.

Remember to negotiate space, or extensions for yourself if you need. You have so much on your plate atm.

Re: Taking the plunge
Thanks @Appleblossom. I am keeping it in mind, but our break between semesters is short, owing to the covid mess, so I am seeing whether I can get through without extensions. It's looking doable at the moment ..... lots to do, but doable.

Doable is GOOD. @Faith-and-Hope
I knew you knew what to do, but you might be so stretched re keeping tabs on running the family, you might forget to negotiate for yourself.

How was yesterday for you all?
Interested in hearing how you went with counsellor yesterday @Maggie?
Thanks for sharing @Former-Member. Mr sure does sound complicated and like so much of that falls on you to manage.
In the country this morning and it is SO cold! The grass is crunchy and white. There are chickens here now as of a week ago which the little crew are very excited about. It feels nice to be here.
Hope there's good in the day for everyone ❤

Re: Taking the plunge
@CheerBear Crunchy and white underfoot. We have had almost a week of frosts here. Yes cold. Beautiful in many ways.
Counsellor yesterday was tricky. Not in an awful way, just a situation way.
I’m glad it feels nice to be in the country. Can you relax and unwind?

@Former-Member Good morning.
Your eye problems don’t sound good at all.
I hope today is an ok enough one for you.☕️☕️💙💙

Re: Taking the plunge
Eye issues are no big deal @Maggie . Just need to be aware, and know when to seek help.
Not much planned for today. A break from all the medical apts is a good thing. Feeling really hurt and disappointed right now, about an overnight post which I suspect was (in part) aimed directly at me. 💔 Feel like I should just go 'silent'again. Sounds like your counsellor session was quite productive overall. I hope your day ahead is a good one.

Re: Taking the plunge
Sorry counsellor was tricky yesterday @Maggie. How did you spend the rest of your day?
@Former-Member I am really sorry to hear that again you're questioning your presence here and that it was triggered by a post you suspect was directed at you. I hear you and empathise with how hard it can be to read things that leave you wondering whether it's in part or fully directed at you. I feel it too and it sucks. I really encourage you to report posts you think are alluding to members and to discuss this with CMs ❤
