Hey guys, thanks for all the support...I made it through all the crap well all for that week anyway...daughter has a court date with ex hubby on monday....but, even though it child support related, that one I can talk to and reason with...we have stayed out of all the bickering so it does not effect our seeing granddaughter on special times that is his time. See, I am not unreasonable just dealing with the current jackass has been trying.
Thanks to all of you, I am back to my old self bless your hearts....I no longer feel the threat of danger to myself or anyone else and I have my appetite back ... You know, the thought of smoking must have been in the back of my mind (thus all the anger and rage) but it never came to the frontline....I am very thankful for that....
On a happier note, just odered the bags I will need for my trip...YEP, Going to France in Sept...one heck of a well deserved trip...birthday and 3 years free

Kay, it sounds like things are getting all "right up" with the world again. FRANCE? For THREE WEEKS??? Um...thinking fast here. You know, I'm really good and helping pack and unpack luggage, arranging transportation, finding someone who can help translate the darn language and all of that!!! You should take me with you!!!! REALLY you should!!!!

Kay,
I'm glad to hear things are coming along. I'm thinking about a trip to the casino for my 1,000 day reward in October. Have fun on your trip. _________________

It is truly awesome and I stayed quite until I saw ticket confirmations Hubby's grandparents were from France...his mother was born in the USA...we are going with his sister to see some of the cousins and the old home place...
Daughter called today to let me know the in laws had arrived out of the sand and they were here to try to FIX things. I told her to be nice but to stand her ground and not to let them try to turn all this around on her...not this time... Since her hubby always has to pay everything for his parents when they are in town, I started to tell her to call and I would wire money if they needed it to feed those hogs.... Sorry, but being sent two emails and a phone call from the other set of grandparents stating we had major problems brewing in paradise and they are just now Waking Up? Daughter is so nieve, she said they were treating her just like they always had with love and kindness....Duh, do ya think it may be sucking up because she would have the grandson? No, I kept my mouth shut Ms. Melody..

Kay,
Good! The fireball and lively girl is back and going ahead full steam.
You are definitely sounding alot better. And to have some humor mixed in there...and being able to stay quiet....ok, are you really Kay or some hacker who took over her computer?
But, with plans for FRANCE!!! Wonderful!!!! Why wouldn't you be happy. What an absolutely great idea for a 3 year celebration.....after all they did give us the Statue of Liberty!!! Hmmmm....freedom! Good Choice And to have relatives there to visit...that's just even better. You will have a blast!
Glad the fireworks on the home front are fizzling down!

Well sorta down Deb, I still have not figured out why he called them to come this weekend when he is not there today but at a golf tournament and daughter works until 6:30...they leave in the morning....they have had lunch, and dinner (hogs ) and other than keeping grandson today there is no contact...daughter said she has not had time to talk to them about anything but chitchat....and this is fixing something???? Ok, they are baby sitting while he plays which is something I have refused to do....he works and plays and nothing else.
I must be from another planet...

Oh, Kay! I'm sorry! Bummer
You've got it right. They are babysitting. Looks like daughter working till 6:30 interfered with his plans to golf. I have nothing against relaxation, but priorities at home and responsibilities come first...and it doesn't sound like neither of things are very important on his list. So, he kicks in an alternate plan....his parents to babysit. It's like a junkie...no matter the cost or inconvenience...got to get it's way regardless.
Kay, they are "fixing" something....they are feeding his "fix" to play! I believe it's called "enabling"!
And Kay, you're not from another planet...just, what we call here at home, "old school"...in other words, responsible!
Love ya and Big Hug to You!! {{{{{{Kay}}}}}} _________________

Well, a 5 hour drive to babysit is quite the set up don't you think? Considering they have not seen this child but about once maybe twice a year since he has been born...guess it would look bad in court if the grandparents never came up to respond in anyway...Daughter had surgery and never heard from them....they were contacted prior to surgery that help was needed here and they never contacted her...I have to give her credit....if it were me, they would be paying for their own food and eating alone....
I have figured out that she is using us to fight her battles so she will come out smelling like a rose and we are assholes...put a stop to that one today and told her so.....I ASKED her to tell them all the crap she has laid on us on a daily basis for the past four years....and to tell them I am here if they have any questions..... If I like France I just may find me a country villa and stay there...no english....

Hey Kay,
Just wanted to say....what a great trip you have ahead of you and best of all you'll be meeting some relatives.
If you've never been....you'll love it there. I absolutely love and miss Europe. Italy was my home for a while.
Half of the thrill is in the planning...keep your mind on some fun things...
