  1. Ok, so this post got me moving and I cleaned up the closet/storage area that has been a dumping ground for too long. 4 hours later I'm just figuring out where to put the last few things. Thank you!
  2. Not diagnosed. I've read up about NPD and she has many of the traits, but not the main classic traits. So I can't diagnose what the issue is, but our relationship was dysfunctional at best. As long as I complied with her every suggestion, things were fine. I finally grew a spine and said no more when I saw her treating my kids the same way.
  3. I'm having a sale in the next few weeks, as soon as it cools down a bit. I'm marking the kids clothing at 50 cents. The kids dresses I'll put maybe $2 on them. I just want it all gone by the end of the day and some change in my pocket.:D
  4. Thanks to all of you! I've been holding back on posting on fb because I didn't want my mom to have any knowledge about what we are doing. I guess it's my way of punishing her. She wants to see our kids but not repair things between me and her. Hmmm, I'll have to think things through again... I did send off a email to my sister. Excellent idea. Thank you.
  5. The whole family including the extended family won't talk to me. I guess I'm not surprised it happened but it still hurts. My sister just arrived home from her 3rd tour in Afghanistan and I find out about it on facebook through a distant cousin. I know my family (dh and kids) are better becuse we don't have contact with my mom, but sheesh to lose the whole family kinda stinks.
  6. :party:Way to go! Have fun with the family and enjoy your super clean house!
  7. :grouphug: My mom wears a wig. I worry it will happen to me too. -- You know because worrying fixes everything.:tongue_smilie:
  8. I used to get this in my email all the time from my mom. She doesn't waste postage on mailing me stuff, but frequently would have a box or bag at my door with crazy stuff in it. Thankfully I've managed to alienate her so she doesn't come around anymore.
  9. :drool5: All this talk about eggplant. Yummy! Anyone ever have white eggplant? It has a thinner skin than the purple.

  11. I live too close to the dells to stay at a resort, but have heard good things about the Kalahari.
