I've been gone from D-land for a while. I was wondering if you could share your new location with me? Clarity_new@yahoo.com. I hope you're doing well and having a good weekend!

I would like to know the new location & I'll add you to myspace as well, if you want to share. You can leave a note on my diary or e-mail me at ashleybrooke83@hotmail.com Thanks!

Westen also chewed on his hands.. particularly his thumb & more so when he was teething. He's never actually sucked his thumb or anything.. had a binky when he was young but we got rid of that already.. So I think your baby's fine! I'm sure he's just exploring & yes, Westen would also choke himself sometimes.. I think it's all just part of the learning process. Also, Westen has had allergies just like mine.. plus I'm not sure where you are, but with all the changes in weather lately, I'm sure some of it could be from that. I wouldn't worry!

*wishing you lots of luck* our moms sound a lot alike. i know i will be in your situation about a year from now. i'm really thinking of you!

Wow, that's awful. I'm sure it's so frustrating, annoying, and even hurtful. I'm glad you're standing up for yourself & I hope you continue to. Is there any other options for watching the baby? I'm sure that may only add to the problem between you & your mom, but it sounds like a different option would be a better environment for the baby.

Different situation, but I totally understand. Having my first baby totally wrecked what remained of my relationship with my mother. It is one more way to try and control. I'm sorry... I know you depend on her for babysitting. I hope you to find a way through this better than we did.

i think there are a lot more people out there like this than you think. not many are willing to admit how lonely they are. i know that has a lot to do with how much i work. i am a workaholic so i don't have time to be alone. because, when i am, i have to admit to myself how lonely i am. i wonder if this is the curse of the "independant" woman of this new decade.
but, if we lived closer, we would definitely hang-out more!!

i just tried to leave you a message at myspace, but my computer wouldn't post it or some crap like that. i was hoping to see preggers pics??? i bet you are so cute! :o) thanks for the notes, i am so sorry i have been so busy i have been being crappy friend. i am hoping to catch up on journals and stuff tomorrow, but the crappy thing is, i can't get myspace at work, so i'll still be behind there. i haven't read a post there from ANYONE in months probably! what a slacker i am! anyhoo, also, i have been wondering what name you guys picked out? is it a secret? did i some how miss you posting it? i have been hit and miss on journals. hopefully i'll get all caught up tomorrow. ugh. this has been a long note about pretty much nothing. i am just SO HAPPY to have some free time!!!!!!

Wow, your baby is getting so big. That's really exciting. You have so much to look forward to. I also hope you had a fun baby shower.:). P.S. I'm sorry for your loss, losing a pet is so hard because they truly become a member of your family. It's painful. I'm Thinking about you, Lisa and hoping that you're having a good week.

Oh honey. I just keep saying I'm sorry only because I don't know what else to say. It's going to get better. I don't like it when people tell me "he/she is in a better place" and other things like that so I am going to refrain. I just wish you weren't so hard on yourself. I hope this doesn't make you cry, but your baby kitty is an angel now! That's what made me happy when I lost mine. I always think of her in that way, with wings.

i have has that feeling a lot lately. what i have decided is that if it's a chore i just won't do it. i won't officially "close," but just not write much. people can leave you notes, you can leave them back, whatever, but don't feel like you have to. i hope you don't go away for good! but, i can really relate to what you are saying!

Thank you for your last note. As you can probably imagine. I can understand your frustrations concerning your relationship with your younger brother. We're going through similar problems. I wish he would listen, open up a bit more and for once take something I say into considerations. We've been falling apart as well, it's just disheartening. I hope it all works out.
|
| from
woeknowsbest : |

Honey, I think it's pretty insensitive for him to send you an email requesting such gifts when your relationship is almost non-existant.
I know that has to hurt because I fall apart every time I get angry with my brother over not taking the trash out. Have you ever tried to have a heart-to-heart with him, or does he get really defensive when you do?
I know it's difficult, but very soon you will have your precious baby and unconditional love.

i have a big problem with my little brother. we are so different. i really disagree with most of his life choices, but i have NEVER treated him ill because of it (besides the normal sibling stuff pre-middle school age). just this weekend he told my mom he wouldn't come to her b-day b/c we treat him like shit anyway. that's beyond me. i didn't agree with his marriage yet i never told him it was a bad idea. i supported him, bought him the most expensive gift on his registry b/c i know he doesn't have much, i video tapes his wedding, and that's what i get. i love him so much and i try so hard to be a part of his life. yet, he pushes me away and makes me really not want to try. i feel guilty for not wanting to try, so i try again and only get hurt. it's a viscious cycle, i know what you mean. i don't think it has anything to do with people not liking you. i think you are fantastic! if we lived closer we would SO be hanging out. please don't think it's you... it's just a problem your brother has. one day he will realize all he has missed out on not being clser to you.

it seems to work... i've been playing with it for a while. but, shane tried to log in and it shows MY profile when he looks at it. so, it must only do one profile per ip address or something. but, grab it soon, i think i'm going to erase that note so it's still a pretty good secret *snicker* ;o) ---now i am freaking out about the people I'VE snooped on who might have had it!!! hee, hee!

wow! i came here to write you a note b/c i thought you hadn't updated in a while. i saw the other notes talking about maternity clothes and i was wondering, "what? when did she write about that?" then i clicked on your diary and saw i missed and update! and you wrote about me!! :o) stupid dl didn't let me know you updated! well, i am glad things are plugging along. and, i hear you on the dishes. although, i hate taking out the garbage more. #2 is dishes for me! :o)

shane is the same way! and i don't have a lot of girl friends to talk to about stuff, either. i think it's a guy thing. i haven't figured it out. basically i just pout and soon he figured out something is wrong. we don't have a solution. it is annoying, though and i do get sick of it. i completely understand!

It's completely understandable that aches and pains would make you uneasy or nervous. It will be fine though, I feel it in my heart.:). Plus I've been praying for you and your baby. I also have the same question as the previous comment. Have you thought of any baby names yet?

okay, so sorry i have been bad about commenting...
first of all, i would say raising almost all young girls would be hard. not that i've DONE it, but working at the high school, i cringe thinking my daughter might be like some of those girls. i see a lot of things the parents never do. secondly, raising a step-daughter? i would thing that would be 100 times harder! yikes!
and, that incentive from your boss is awesome! when i worked at h.d. i actually cashed mine out. what a misake! ugh!

okay, i am a complete idiot. last night i went to the post offic to mail you a little something. it was 4:45. they were about to close and it was a madhouse in there. i put a little something in a package for you and shipped it. as i walked out i realized the card that went with it was in my hand!! what a dork i am! anyway, i went back, addressed the card, and sent it also. so, if you get the card before the package, it goes with what will be coming. if you get the package first, there is a card on it's way. *stupid* hee, hee.
