Hey Sasha,

I just thought you should know that you made me smile at work today (yes, I read your blog on company time!) when I read this line: “We talked and we split up the events: He can go to this and I won’t, and I can go to that and he won’t.” I know that it’s entirely personal context, but it gave me the metal motio picture of Edward Norton Jr. & Helena Bonham Carter in Fight Club doing the same with their shared support groups. LOLZ.
Glad to see you continue to do well, despite your occasional thoughts to the contrary.

Take Care,
~Hans

Aww Beet… Im sorry to hear of all the bad stuff going on in your life..

But what’s good is, that you understood that we are nothing without hope.. There’s always an answer, there’s always another option, it’s just so hard to see it when you’re the one with the problem (if you know what i mean…)

All i can say to you is, that there’s always light at the end of the tunel, we all go through things in life, and good or bad, we should be thankful, because we learn from the mistakes (most of the time) and it makes us who we are.. And you are a beautiful person.. Remember that everything happens for a reason.. And like my future husband (Eminem) says “God gave you shoes to fit you”

A big hug your way Beet. I hope you feel better soon.

I’m about 15 minutes from Longmeadow. I have a cousin a few years older, but she and I definitely run in different circles.

Sasha: do TAP! its literally impossible to be sad when you are tap tap tapping!! it’s so much fun.

and my sister joined some group down in San Diego… I don’t know what’s its called, but I’ll ask her. It’s just a group where a bunch of people get together and do stuff like museums or snorkeling or hiking or whatever. She’s met some cool people doing it, and if you don’t want to do the particular outing, you just don’t go.

Ah, yes. You have. I have friends in Longmeadow. How far are you from there? If you’re fairly close, I’ll ask what they do to avoid turning into bluehairs.

Wendie I’m in western Mass, near Springfield. I seem to have moved in to the old people area. :(

Expand your social circle? Seriously it appears to me you have more friends than anyone I know….but I have to agree that ballet sounds like fun ?

Ha ha, he has wee-wee pads that he uses in the mornings … sometimes. And I just keep a giant supply of Nature’s Miracle on hand for accidents. But I put wee-wee pads in the living room and in my bedroom and he’s usually pretty good about using those in the morning. When he does have accidents I just soak it in Nature’s Miracle and then it’s fine by the next day.

The other thing is that I usually don’t go to bed until 2 or 2:30 am, so he gets to go outside then, before I go to bed. So it’s not like the last time he got to go outside was at 10 pm or something.
