I listened to him and my mother and then took the chicken way out, I drank and tried to ignore them which did not work. There was no way to please either of them. I finally just gave up and let them bicker. I did not have the courage to tell them how I felt which is the same way you feel now.Sylviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14621442188580791899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21551598.post-17084547116360147132007-11-07T07:33:00.000-05:002007-11-07T07:33:00.000-05:00Tahiti sounds good to me.

I know I need AlAnon and have attempted but without having a meeting stick. <BR/><BR/>My father is turning Christmas into a circus trying to plan a day in NY. I told him we will take our own car and you would think I took a knife to the mans heart. UGH! <BR/><BR/>Just remember ~ you are soooo friggin not alone :)<BR/><BR/>Have a great rest of the week :)<BR/><BR/>G~Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01301188057020591320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21551598.post-5756680198692219162007-11-07T06:34:00.000-05:002007-11-07T06:34:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07940745178193985942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21551598.post-24281000375546427392007-11-07T05:53:00.000-05:002007-11-07T05:53:00.000-05:00"Just hear those sleigh bells ringin' and jing jin..."Just hear those sleigh bells ringin' and jing jing jingleing too, ooo ooo ooo"<BR/>Isn't it funny that our company is not that important the other 364 days of the year?

I've just begun to get an idea of how to make the holidays manageable, but it involves tossing most of everyone else's expectations out the window. Peace, love and joy got lost somewhere, didn't it?<BR/><BR/>Just a thought, though. I don't know many 20 year old young women who know much about peace and selflessness. Probably the wrong way to go. Might end up with more excitement than you bargained for. Could be wrong. :/Judithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16354890444410748967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21551598.post-77279487678186056172007-11-06T20:21:00.000-05:002007-11-06T20:21:00.000-05:00Okay, here is an unsolicited suggestion:Can you ju...Okay, here is an unsolicited suggestion:<BR/>Can you just stay home with your own nuclear family for Christmas? This sounds like too much BS to tolerate. <BR/><BR/>But that's just me. You seem to be good at getting over yourself and getting along with everyone, and I am sure this year will be no exception.Mary Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08156474205414127488noreply@blogger.com
