Hello Marmark ,
firstly I'd like to say you are in safe hands on this site , you couldn't meet a more kind group of ladies .
my story goes way back and you can read my history on here if you have a spare week .
My GD is now 4 years old and when born i was given the cold shoulder  big time .
I see her about once a month , even though she only lives an hour away .
In my case I think my DIL had to establish ownership of her DD before she would let anyone else in .
i had to learn to back off and wait to be invited to see her .
the thing to do is when you see her make the time special in every way , your GD will remember the one on one time you spend with her .My GD actually asks to see me now .
it's hard I know , but bide your time .
My son eventually started to ask me to visit .Be the fun GM everyone likes , not the grumpy one
no one asks to visit .
It worked for me .
the bad times still happen sure , but thats all about her , not me .
I know my GD loves me and thats all that matters .
good luck ...

Dear Luise ,
You'll never know how much I appreciate your kind words .
Just the tonic I needed . Thankyou .

Just popping in to say hello .

It helps me to keep in touch with you guys knowing I'm not alone in the ongoing ins
And outs of life with an exasperating DIL .
MY GD is nearly four and what a rollercoaster the last four years have been .
And yes my DIL is still yanking my chain. Why do I let her ? In order to see my one and
only GC. If not for her I wouldn't be bothered if I never saw my DIL again . I would certainly miss
my DS , but over the years he has let this disrespect of his parents go on , so
feelings get hurt continuously .
There is no solution to my problem . I could end it tomorrow with dire consequences . So I continue on
and try to shield my heart unsuccessfully for the love of my GD .

Love to all my fellow ww , best wishes for 2014.
Good health to you Luise
....sending love .

Just a word of warning , the leopard never changes it's spots !
Love your gc  but beware the momma cat , her claws are sharp . Get too close
and she springs into action .
My gd is nearly 4 , and I'm still watching my back and heart .
Good luck .

Awww you too Luise And dearest Pooh !
Life goes on here , same old .....still working ...hope to retire next year .
My GD is now 3 1/2 years old !! and still causing trouble ....lol but still melts my heart .

You will always have a place in my heart , all of you ladies across the water ..I'll  always keep in touch ...x

today's very positive thought is .........every once in a while I get an email reminding me of my friends
across the water ........
Glad to see you're all still kicking gals , still my favourite ladies , love ya !

Aww , thank you . Sometimes I need reassuring that I am a nice person and coming here amongst friends is a great tonic when I'm a little down . I don't think I deserve some of the kicks I've had lately  and those few kind words mean the world to me . Onward and upward , thanks guys .

Couldnt resist popping in with many Congratulations ! Was wondering about that grandbaby, glad all is ok .
Have a great New Year's ......

Hello everyone ! Long time no see !
I have been thinking about my friends across the pond , with the terrible weather , and also the election .
I hope your person of choice was elected !
I am tuning in today to say a big thankyou to you all , and to reassure any newbies reading this Forum
how welcome you will be made . These ladies do not judge , they listen , and when all around you is falling
down ,this site is a welcome port in the storm .
they saved my life , my sanity , and gave me the strength to carry on when I felt my heart had been
ripped out . Looking back , perhaps that is a bit over dramatic , but at the time I was rock bottom .
This tribute goes to Luise , my cyber Mom , and all her loyal mods and friends who help to make this
forum truly unique .
I thankyou from the bottom of my heart , which I still have thanks to you .
Not always with you in body but always in spirit .
As Luise says ....Sending Love ........<3

Hi Pooh , wonder why weddings bring out the worst in people . My take , it'll be a much happier day without them .  SM  will realise its not all about her , also once again Facebook  has reared its ugly head . With you on board  Pooh, I'm sure the day will  work out .  Good luck ....

Certainly inspired me Pooh , hope I can stick to the plan ! 

Hello everyone , coming in here , my favourite subject ......

I have to say that most MIL's would jump at the chance to be invited over period !

Whether to do laundry of make dinner , just being part of the fun of having a new baby home
would have been wonderful .
I don't think my DIL would have wanted me to do her smalls either , but cook the odd meal or shop ,
whatever , it would have been nice just to be asked .

Hi Pen !!!

Too many posts to read through I'm afraid , will have to start afresh .
So nice to be missed , one of the reasons too I've been absent is , perhaps
my life has been happy lately , and maybe , just maybe , I don't need to be here ,
but I have missed my cyber buddies and will join in again to happy topics .
I have learnt so much from this forum , and you know mostly from DIL's that post
here ,  how to treat my own DIL , and why she reacts to things I never understood .
You too Scoop , lol, even though we had a rocky start , you whipped me into shape
good style .
Sounds like a swan song , but I'm still here , still learning , and loving you guys !   

Hello dearest Pooh !

Still here , just had a very busy summer . Now its starting to quieten down , I'll be back ......
hhhmmmm , think I've heard that before somewhere .....

Most I could do is tap my feet and enjoy the music ....lol
