The Second Baby Shower Today
« on: August 14, 2010, 01:24:19 AM »
First, I wanted to tell all of you that I found a very nice thank you card to send to the boyfriend's aunts who hosted the baby shower last Saturday. My daughterinlaw and I are giving my daughter her second baby shower today. I am excited for it since I will see friends I haven't seen for a very long time. I will be way more relaxed and am hoping her boyfriend's mom will see me in a new light...more as myself.
I look forward to getting healthier and happier by coming to this site. And it does help to write about this! But for now, I am going to try to get some sleep. cdb

I look forward to getting healthier and happier by coming to this site. And it does help to write about this! But for now, I am going to try to get some sleep with my typical insomnia, and have my nice casual clothes ready with some fun jewelry. I will concentrate of having a good time with friends and if my daughter chooses to be friendly to me,, what an added benefit, but not an expectations I will have. Expectations cause resentments. I have so many resentments, it is time to get rid of them so I can live a healthier life.
Grandkids or no grandkids, we have one life and I am trying to choose a new journey that will make my life more worth living. Thanks to all of you for giving me hope!!!! cdb

Your attitude is in the right place now, so keep it their!!!!      Some posts make me think wow I must re read this and use these strategies you have.    I am not familiar with fibromylagia I will look it up.   I suppose  (and you know this already) but being strong and not mentioning your ailments unless asked by your dd bf dm.
Thankheavens I haven't had  a friend who is terminal.    I have friends who have beaten cancer so staying positive and not showing sad emotions for them at the time.  I don't know maybe someone else here has had the experience of what they do and don't want people to say to them.   I would like to know!.

It was very nice idea to mention in your thankyou card that you look forward to getting to know them better and you appreciated all they did for your dd.

Hope dd is nice to you like you said don't have to high expectations.

I tell myself house cleaning is a very dangerous occupation.  One to be avoided at all costs!!
ton's of good thoughts and great vibes

Yay CDB!!!!  Good job on not only the card but your attitude! 

Hey, I was just recently diagnosed with the same thing, so I do know how bad it hurts at times.  Chin up!
