While you may no longer exist to WH, I am sure his kids do. I am betting every second he spends with them is painful for him. Not trying to defend his actions here but his keeping his distance may be a defense mechanism. Don't know. If I were you, I would just stop thinking about it. You can't change it and all it does is wind you up. Just go put one of your boots on his bed. That will make you feel better.

There is a new poster trying to make the case that he married the wrong sister. He talks about how much he has in common with SIL. It got me thinking of an interview a very long time ago. I can't remember if it was Billy Graham or his wife that was being interviewed but I think it was Billy. The question was basically whether the two of them were alike and had a lot in common. Billy answered that if two people agree on everything, one of them is unnecessary. Don't know why that occurred to me.

This thread is for me to keep my story up-to-date, for me to keep in touch with ToddAC who saves my sanity and to keep in touch with others who know my story and are trying to help. Other people use it as well for other purposes. You can use it too if you like. It stays on page 1 a lot because ToddAC is such a prolific writer. I couldn't keep up with ToddAC if I tried.
Now for the bad news. My BIL had brought my Harley down to Houston and it is sitting here in the garage. I have not even uncovered it since I have been here because it is not tagged. He trailered it out to be inspected before we got here and one of the tiedowns came loose on the way back. He just told me about it today. One side of the gas tank on the Deuce is caved in. He felt really bad about it. I told him not to worry. With all my other problems right now, the Harley gas tank is the least of them.

Three clamps? That might explain the affair right there. Well, not sure what this means but... if you think of the human male anatomy, there are three good spots to clamp. One is a cylinder and the other two are err....ovals. Anyway..

ToddAC,
I got a little surprise. I just checked hotmails and had two emails from you. At least I thought it was you. You and another person both show up the same on the listing. Boy is he going to get a surprise. In regard to your email, I am in complete agreement. Just can't say it out loud here.
Thanks for the clamp explanation. For a bit I was truly jealous of your OM. Now I feel better.

DS3 called. WW was in a one car accident. She is okay. She flew off the road. Over the past ten years or so, she has had eight accidents. All were her fault. In seven of those accidents, one or more of her sisters were with her. See a pattern?
Now, that seems like an excessive number of accidents to me. Do you see a pattern with her sisters? Don't know yet if she was alone or not during this last accident. Prolly was because she was headed to work.
Incidentally, the lone accident with no sister aboard occurred a few days after the death of her favorite and closet sister. She rammed the back of a $80,000 Jaquar driver by a physician. He was happy. The first accident she had was when she ran into the back of my car while driving her sister's brand new car. Do you see a pattern here?
Why did she have the accident? Because she insists on driving 80-90 MPH on every road regardless of traffic or weather conditions.
Well, the drama caused my matchmaking youngest son to wonder why his Mom and I cannot get back together. I explained it as best I could but one thing he learned from me is persuasiveness and persistence.
I need help in what and how to tell him it's over.
Also, not all is well in best friend paradise. It seems that BF and her boyfriend went on vacation for a week and when they returned, BF saw her newly minted electric bill. She started complaining to WW, saying that she cooked too much and ran the HVAC too much and that is why her bill was so high.
For the uninitiated, BF abandoned her family including three kids to go and live "her own life and have fun". She shacks up with a married man who also desserted his family. At the time BF met boyfriend, he was shacked up with another woman who had abandoned her family. So, BF stole him away. BF was the chief enabler of WW's affair. She had been telling WW for over twenty years she should starting "having fun". Well, after living with BF for two months, WW has learned that BF's lifestyle is not really for her. It seems that BF drinks all the time. Duh, WW, so do you! She wants to party and always have "fun".
Okay, so WW's second BF also abandoned her family to "get happy". She then proceeded to have affairs with a number of married men. See a pattern?
Both BF's are miserable. Both are alcoholics. So is WW for that matter. Misery loves company.

Hi Myrta,
Sorry I missed responding to your post. I read it but forgot to respond...
I finished five weeks of therapy last week. I think it was last week. Anyway, next step is followup MRI in one month and I guess monthly after that. My life's quest will be to track down the guy who invented the MRI machine contraption and torture him.
Anyway, I feel better each day. Mentally not all here yet, but then...
No I have not made arroz con habichuelas yet. Every time I get in la cocina, DS1's GF runs in there and takes over. She has never met a recipe she follows. She always changes it for the detriment of the food. Her rice always comes out, can't think of the term now, but it means wet and mushy?
She is French and fashions herself a gourmet cook. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> We prolly have some French members here at MB so I will make no comment.
When I get my own place some day, I will make it myself.
Thanks.

My other pet peeve is all these software books... Me too, but my biggest gripe is the packaged box at the store boasts how the software is "intuitive" and "easy to use". So easy, even an adult could use it. Yeah, then you open the box and find a 1,400 page manual. Something wrong with that picture.

Todd - I'm so glad you're feeling good!

I never had to take the Kobayashi Maru test until now. What do you think of my solution?O'hana means family, and family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten. My Story Recovered!

Oh dear.
I fear we are politically diametrically opposed. Actually, we prolly both agree on helping others. Where we disagree is who does the helping. Why is it acceptable for the Government to hold a gun to my head and take my hard-earned money and then dole it out to others? Look at government schools in this country. The US, despite all its wealth, power and innovation, consistently ranks behind other first world countries in math and verbal scores. Why? The federalization of government schools. All schools should be private. Why are private schools so effective? I have talked to a number of administrators and teachers in private schools and their uniform answer is: we design a curriculum without "help" from the federal government. See, what Dems are all about is income redistribution. They do not favor equal rights; they say that but it is not true. What they want is equal outcomes. That is unrealistic and ultimately robs people's dignity. Republicans want equal opportunity and let the chips fall where they may. Dems see politics as a social experiment. And Dems in no way believe in free enterprise. Look at how they wanted to tax (rob) the oil companies of their "excess profits". Their appetite for "revenue" and spending is insatiable. They created Social Security and then took steps to ensure its quicker demise. Under my form of government, each individual would have ultimate freedom and liberty. Where does that liberty end? When it interferes with the liberty, property, health or life of another invididual. If a guy wants to shoot heroin into his vein, so be it. Put it in mine and you go to prison and stay there for a long while.

Someone, I believe they were new to this thread, asked me a question a couple of weeks back. I was not in a position to answer then. I just looked for but could not find the post.
Will said person please repost the question.

I'm not sure which category I'm in. If you prefer I don't post, just tell me and I won't. Geez you are sensitive. You are in the category of those trying to help. So is everyone who posts to a degree but you and a few others know the whole story. Most don't. ToddAC, There is a great commercial on the poker channel. A woman pulls into the driveway with a bent fender. She gets out and tells her husband "same thing happened again". He says "meteor?". She says "second time. I was just parked at the intersection and BAM!". Misses Mars, misses the moon and hits me."
