Laughter will sustain you for sure. That paragraph about loving detachment was so brilliant and funny, it made me guffaw (I think that's the term).<br /><br />In all seriousness, though, I'm so sorry Maggie. I confirm that life is heinous sometimes, if not all the time, broken only by moments of grace and beauty and the knowledge that many of us are in it together.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03313726816776097840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-972647577919000054.post-46904262799627766582011-09-07T19:04:57.239-07:002011-09-07T19:04:57.239-07:00Hugses.Hugses.Lone Star Mahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14339475499304565638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-972647577919000054.post-29891865496183390092011-09-07T18:08:30.675-07:002011-09-07T18:08:30.675-07:00There is that lovely saying of

The one thing you can't laugh about when it's happening is your child's suffering. You can laugh at yourself about how you handle it though.Maggie Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14699674732274478502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-972647577919000054.post-32146646271231569802011-09-07T13:40:53.686-07:002011-09-07T13:40:53.686-07:00I was sort of hoping that you'd backhanded the...I was sort of hoping that you'd backhanded the mean old rude bitch at Wally World. You would have felt soooo much better!!! Remember (ducking my head as I speak) that this, too, shall pass, dearest Maggie. I've earned the right to say that because I've survived situations much, much worse than yours and somehow, it does pass and you move on...

I play the how much worse can things get game, also know as at least I still have my feet, as in I felt sorry for myself because I didn't have shoes until I met a woman who had no feet.<br />These mind games do nothing to fix the sucking vortex I get trapped in sometimes, but they distract my monkey brain enough to let the stess abate a bit and let me regroup so I don't snap.<br />Hang in there, trite, but true.
