So, to update. I did reach out with the apology. Kept it short and sweet, sorry for everything that happened back then. I was a be-otch and you deserved better. He responded saying he was sorry too that he wasn’t the easiest person to get along with and we were too young for that kind of commitment. Told me to keep in touch and that while the apology wasn’t needed, it was accepted. So, I’d say we cleared a little air and parted on good terms.

Comment on Update…couldn’t resist this story by Cathy

It is so good to hear from you. This is a great story CJ. I’m glad you tried the meds and hope they continue to help him.

My ex refused to allow our youngest to take meds. As a result the child suffered throughout his school career and ended up having problems with clinical depression and recreational drug use.

I think it is normal to worry about the long term effects of the meds but, I’ve seen the long term effects of untreated ADHD and based on my experience you’ve made life so much easier for your little guy.

Mine is now on medication and like you, I’ve seen such a difference in how he deals with life. He is so in touch and in control now. Something every kid deserves.

Comment on Seriously need to vent…Feel free to ignore… by Nappy Kitchen

Yes, a clean break is in order.

Just ask yourself if you want your son to become a carbon copy of your ex. Now ask yourself if you want your daughter to marry a carbon copy of you ex.

Based on this first and only post I’ve read, things with him will. not. get. better … and you know what? … that’s not your problem. STOP wasting all of that good energy and poor it into something else.

Please get this man out of your lives immediately, otherwise, it will just continue to be the Same ****, Different Day 365 days of the week. You can do it!

I agree with Vino. Can’t hurt to look for a new job. Thirteen years in the same position is a very long time! Especially if you don’t like your job.

I wish I had the answer. We all get burned out with what we do. Maybe do some volunteer work for the less fortunate? That might make you feel more content. I don’t know. I do know theres no harm in looking while you are still employed for something else.

Me? I enjoy what I do but I’d kill for decent benefits. What I have is basically worthless.

Wish I had a cure for you. I’m in a different boat. I LOVE what I do, have such a passion for it but feel the burn-out also.

With the economy the way it is, I feel as if all I do is work with very little financial return on the work. I think a lot of people are in our boat.

Maybe what we all need is a vacation on a sunny beach. Toes in the sand, drinks in hand and work problems left miles and miles away. Sounds like heaven to me.

Comment on Facebook is da bomb by Cathy

Well, that is dandy and all but, if I’m going to be told I don’t know who I am I want more info than, “take some time to yourself.”

How does one take time to “yourself” when you don’t know who that self is?

Love taking those facebook quizzes but really, isn’t it a bit offensive to tell you, you are lost and not give any hints on how to find yourself?

Figured you were busy but didn’t want to assume all was well. And, I’m missed you…wanted you to know that.

Good luck with the fundraiser and life in general. I’ll keep an eye out for your return to the blogging world.
