happy to asd busier again

we are going to try the no delete rule. dunno.

later today we go over the br*thers for tday. he got out of h*spital
yesterday. foo will all be there. seems like charlie is committed to going.

told t more about foo (the d*d) yesterday. didn't even tell her some of
the worse stuff but somehow it seems so much worse talking about it with
her. I mean, all we talked about how the d*d likes to p*nch our b*ttom.
That's not that big a deal. right?

(switchy!)

t and I talked about how to deal with the d*d. t was just like asd and
said maybe herman can help. this time maybe herman has an idea. dunno.
kind of garbled. anyway, t also asked us to try to stay present. she
wants us to try be an observer.

she says that she can help. that it doesn't have to be like it us for
us. she really seems to believe that too

so, for the get together the plan is, stay away from the d*d as much as
possible. play with the nephew. be an observer. send t email afterwards

umm.. need maybe a plan for rest of the day. is a late dinner there so
got lots of time to fill. ate breakfast :/ we maybe slipping again on
eating. will eat today. guess we will even eat lunch. oscar says we have
too. he says can't go there feeling weak and dizzy

we gonna walk wondermutt but what else we do today? we really gotta eat
lunch? wish we didnt gotta go there.

(sorry)

calls attention to their behavior in a way that is playful, so is like
you are just doing the same thing they are doing. isn't perhaps a good
way to deal with a childs inappropriate behavior, but works fairly well
with adults if repeated.

You guys should listen to her about the body. Are you getting enough to
drink? That can help headaches sometimes. try and figure out why and if
it can be fixed instead of shoving it aside? Might help.

caffeine can make headaches worse sometimes. You guys drink water? or
have juice or something?

advil is okay if you only take enough to help the headache. I have to
take it for headaches fairly often.

Why did you stop taking it?

dehydration can make headaches. coffee doesn't help much with that cos
it's a whatsit, diuretic.

did dctrs tell you to take it for a set amount of time or daily or what?
think is something you might need all the time as a supplement because
not geting it in your diet.

take daily and follow up with dr
and we did take it daily and then we feeling lots better and we'd read
about it and is bad if you get to much potassium in your system

and we only slipped a little bit on eating and just recently so don't
get how body can be feeling worse. shouldn't be that much a difference.
really. not trying to be difficult. just don't get it because we were
feeling really good. had energy. no dizziness.

think at a certain point body can feel better but is still needing lots
of healing and so it doesn't have a lot of tolerance for slipping, cuz

Somehow I suspect you guys are unlikely to have that problem. The follow
up with dctr would presumably have checked if you still needed it or not.

Maybe your body doesn't process it out of food efficiently enough so
needs supplements?

yes.
also, think it's one of the signs of cumulative damage, that one's
sensitivity to the thing doing damage increases.

perhaps they lie to themselves because seeing what happens is too
threatening to their construction of the world. perhaps they see the
same as you but are driven to interpret it differently in order to
maintain their sense of stability. sometimes it takes a while to see
clearly.

herman was useless. charlie pretty well took over.

will tell what happened below. going to use foo words and not splat.

we got lost on the way there. not just got lost but our driving went to
crap and we almost got in an accident. anyway, we got into the little
complex where the brother lives and couldn't remember the house number
or exactly where the house was so we drove around a bit but couldn't
find it. so we called.

this is apparently something that is worthy of much comments. "you
couldn't find it" "you got lost in the complex" "I can't believe it".
yeah well we go there once a year at most. it was dark and rainy. kiss
my *ss. anyway, the brother made a point of telling the 'rents.

now maybe wee got lost but we were at least on time. the parents showed
up an hour late. we had to hold dinner and wait and wait. once thety got
there the mother spent the entire evening making coments about how we
got lost. this from the woman who gave up driving years ago because she
couldn't cope. who had no sense of direction and typically refused to go
to new places or drive at night. I finally told her to lay off.

that's after I found my way out. which happened because of what the dad
did.

ok, so we were standing talking to the SIL and we put our back to our
dad. which is so fucking stupid. WE KNOW BETTER!!!!!!! charlie's all
happy because she got to help in the kitchen and they appreciated her
and aside from the mom's idiocy things hadn't been that bad. charlie is
a fool

we were stretching and the SIL comments we need smaller pants and a
smaller belt. no shit. so then the dad swats us on the ass and he tries
to pull down our pants. charlie says he wouldn't have actually pulled
down our pants. THAT'S NOT THE FUCKING POINT AND HE WAS YANKING PRETTY
HARD. I am so fucking tired of this shit.

and the dad just called andd left a message on the machine saying they
are celebrating the brother's birthday on Saturday. we are *NOT* going.
no. charlie can just fuck off. and someone is panicking and it's enough
of that crap. we've been walloing since thursday

here's a clue people. stay away from the foo and we wouldn't be stuck
wallowing. we wouldn't be such a fucking mess.

did it work?

but she's allowed to be happy about things that make her happy

doesn't mean turn your back on him, but she's allowed to like being
appreciated

Good on you.

It's a teeny, tiny complex. It was ridiculous we got lost. So, they made
some comments it wasn't a big deal. Oscar is the one making a big deal
out of it

No, they make things sound worse then they are. He was playing. All he
did is tug on our pants. Big deal. He wasn't actually going to pull them
down. He was making a point. We really shouldn't be walking around in
such baggy clothes.

Everybody keeps saying that. Everyone who says that has f*mily. Sure, go
ahead, tell us what to do while you have your f*mily. Do you want us to
have no one? Do you understand how much they struggle. They aren't awful
people. They are hurt people. Hurt people come here and post and they
get support and concern. My f*mily deserves the same thing. You don't
know what it's like to be them. You don't know about the good things
they do.

Why don't you tell them how tired the d*d and SIL were? How much the m*m
and br*ther hurt. How the SIL is taking care of the br*ther and her m*m
who has cancer and she's got her own health issues. How the d*d is
taking care of the m*m and how hard that is.

Of course you won't tell that. You've wanted to get rid of the foo for a
long time. You're just itching for a fight and you're going to tell your
own twisted story.

Did you tell how much they appreciated our help? How most of the time
they were being really nice. How we were making the best of a really
rotten situation with my brother being so hurt.

think is true from both sides

believe you that they are not awful, that they are hurt. think same of
ours. no m*nsters there, just hurt people who don't understand or
respect boundaries. do good things as well as disturbing things.

is also the case that the others in your body get incredibly triggered
right now from being with the foo, and then spend a significant amount
of time tryimg to regain footing after contact.

think right now, all of you are dealing in blacks and whites,
minimizings and maximizings of current day stuff. think that may mean
there is past stuff to deal with, so that you can see the true greys of
today.
