"Who were you talking to on the phone?"

 

"Just my dad."

 

"What's new with him?"

 

"Nothing." 

 

An hour of silence passes, something hidden climbs my walls so I ask, "Are we having c0mpany this weekend?"

 

"Just my dad."

 

 

 

 

 

 

*He's done it again, invited the BEAST for the weekend without telling me and if I hadn't asked I'd have found the little green suitcase as a surprise again this Saturday.  Something will rage this weekend.  Something awful.

@Gita and Sissy ~ I tried to find her on Facebook.  No luck.  I'll have to go through my sister-in-law to communicate with her.  I know her name is Rafaela and that she is a Virgo with a Pisces moon.  Could be interesting.  I bet she's got some good dirt on Beast.  I suspect some shocking information.

@Mike ~ LitFire won't let me in...  It hasn't sent me a confirmation email.  Waaagh...

I think Gita has an excellent suggestion.

"Something hidden climbs my walls" is a perfect description of that creeping feeling.

The last time this happened, I suggested that you take the kids to your mother-in-law's for a visit. The one that the Beast has shunned. That more than anything will be a wake-up call to the cortez men. And it will be GOOD for the kids and GOOD for her.

I've missed you, T. I was hoping to seeya over at LitFire, but I couldn't stand it any longer. I needed my T-fix. This certainly stopped my tremors. Your words here rock, as usual. I'd say be strong, but that's sort of redundant with you. Beasts reap what they sow. (BIG HUG)

Funny how married can always tell when there is something up. Hoping all goes well.  (And hey, right now this is the #1 post - we're shoring your up kiddo!)

I don't know why it is so hard to put oneself in another's shoes, initially I thought this about the discourteous husband; but equally, one has all sorts of "Oh if that was me I would xyz..." and you forget that you are not that person because the urge to give advice is so strong; and you forget your own prevarications in your own life that people from outside must see as equally crazy...

rambling way of saying, thinking of you.

Wow, I'm new to 6S, but I have never seen the 6 sentences used in such a creative way.  I gotta read that again.  An a footnote.  Inventive, certainly.

My condolences.
