Your exes shortcomings are not a reflection on you. It's not a bad thing to be cautious but don't forget to look for the goodness that lies ahead.

Ugh...dealing with cable companies is enough to make you drink.
I'm so not, but wow. This took all frickin day to get set up.
Feel better Conquest!
Glad your working through the issues Vee. With a clear head, right?
Good job coming here Briar and venting!
Ok. I can finally sit now.

There's so much wisdom in the last handful of posts! It's sounds like healing is just ahead, Venus. And there are so many wonderful people that are worthy and deserving of your trust and love. Don't give up on 'em yet! 
.........................
I didn't mention this earlier, but my sweet grandmother passed away peacefully over the weekend. There's comfort in knowing that she was resting comfortably during her last days here. However, it's still hard to see my family grieving. I'll be at the viewing tomorrow evening and funeral on Thursday.
So I'm pretty sure this "tummy bug" is stress-induced. And I haven't been taking very good care of myself lately. I was able to eat a little tonight though.
Have I told y'all lately how incredible I think you are?

Was she able to attend your wedding?

Yes, she did! And she said some very sweet things to me that day that I'll always remember. She said she was happy that I waited until I was older to get married; She could tell that I knew who I was as a woman, what I wanted in a good husband, and that I was genuinely happy. Nailed it, Grandma!
Goodnight Leigh! I'm not far behind you on bedtime.

So glad that your grandma was part of such a special day.

What a treasured memory of your grandmother on your wedding day Conquest. Priceless. I also took note of Arbor's fond recollection of his Nana's English custard. Good stuff.
Conquest, I'll be thinking of you and yours as y'all gather to celebrate and honor your grandmother's life.

Thanks, BD! The love and support here is so very touching.
And I can't believe I'm going to work today, but I know others have had to carry the weight for me for a couple of days. My job is in mental health care and requires me to be thinking and caring for the needs of others. All I want to do is take care of myself...hire a maid and chef for my house, sit on my hiney, and watch Family Feud all day. (A girl can dream, right? Lol. ). I've just felt very much like the mother hen in my family the last few days and it's a bit exhausting. Is it too early to start looking forward to Saturday?
Thanks for letting me vent guys. Posting here definitely does help.
Ok. Pity party done. Let's do this!
