CONTROL/FUN

[shoebrera]

Everyone wants to feel in control to some degree. Even those who profess to serve God, those who follow the teachings of Jesus (to some degree, at least) desire to have control. Control of their bodies. Control over their environment. Control over certain others. Control in the home.

My love has made progress. Sort of. He waffles. He is still in

It sounds like he's at least beginning to see (as we all must) that we can't control our death but only how we live each moment...(((HUGS))). And yes, having fun, finding joy...

The writer is always in control, even if it doesn't seem so. Letting the mind play, create, detour is still the working mind of the writer, just two different parts. :)

((((((((((((D)))))))))))))) My thoughts are with you and your husband more than you know.

Thank you for the positive words and the prayers.

He intends to live every moment to the fullest. To him, that translates to working as hard and as long as always. But it makes him happy. I can live with that.

I've gotten tickets for both kids. Don't know if I can do it for the grandkids, though. Daughter and son will be visiting in June, while he's still feeling as ornery as always.

He's always claimed he's a grumpy old man. They believe him. Why change it now, right?

Thanks so much!

They're garnishing a portion of my SSA. Once I get things settled and I'm ready to deal again, I'll prove I owe less than the think. Much less. THEN I intend to show them I can't afford to pay 'em right now. So there!

I tried making arrangements with these people and dealt with an absolute rude ass. Made me want to throw my hands up and curse. A lot. He barked I should take care of my tax debt. Why the hell did he think I was calling Them instead of the other way around if not to do just that?

Oh, well. They can't kill me. Right?

Agreed! No, I'll probably enlist my daughter's aid. Then she can stay calm and not be insulted and maybe -- just maybe -- we'll get the job done the next time around. Thanks for the advice.
