22249. Ms. No - 7/20/2007 9:23:22 PM Con'd,
If I choose to contact him it will be with the intent of trying to establish some kind of future relationship, otherwise there'd be no reason to contact him at all. 22250. concerned - 7/20/2007 10:36:14 PM I'm just suggesting that you can establish an initial level of communication, etc. that is most comfortable for both of you and change it as time goes on. 22251. Ms. No - 7/20/2007 10:48:19 PM Assuming I'd be comfortable with any level of contact at all. ;-> As I said, the jury's still out on that one. 22252. judithathome - 7/20/2007 11:06:57 PM Jex...here's something you might like:

 22254. Ms. No - 7/20/2007 11:29:32 PM What a fabulous looking family! 22255. judithathome - 7/20/2007 11:44:46 PM You should see my brothers-in-law! And they're single! 22256. judithathome - 7/20/2007 11:45:56 PM Trust me, you'd forget about Todd...hahahhahaha!! 22257. concerned - 7/21/2007 3:53:13 AM AFAIC, they do appear to have good teeth. Unless the old guy is wearing dentures. 22258. judithathome - 7/21/2007 12:52:31 PM Those are his teeth, Conn'd.
He may be balding but he will never be old. 22259. Ms. No - 7/21/2007 11:23:04 PM More importantly, he's got presence, or charisma or that whatever pheremone that says "Desirable Man."
The Todds of the world are safe from me these days. I try to avoid junk food of all kinds at this point. ;-> 22261. Ms. No - 7/22/2007 4:44:07 PM Hey, Arx, where's your post?? 22262. arkymalarky - 7/23/2007 4:40:42 AM I was showing those fantastic pictures to Spook, who was here this morning, and I hit post instead of home. 22263. Ms. No - 7/23/2007 6:37:23 AM Ah, the dreaded empty post! Tell Spook I said "Hey!" 22264. vonKreedon - 7/23/2007 4:04:49 PM Hey Coz - So sorry to hear about your estrangement from your Father. I think that the key is as you said in 22241, "We still love one another and so long as I never make the mistake of depending on him or taking risks for him then there really isn't any reason for us not to be in one another's lives." It's tragic, but IMO we often have to scale back what we expect from our parents beyond what we would accept from friends in order to stay in relationship with our parents. 22265. Ms. No - 7/23/2007 4:41:03 PM Hey Cos! Great to see you! Yeah, we have two families in this life, the one we're born with and the one we choose. For the most part I've been immensely blessed in both so I'll weather the other.
22266. Ms. No - 7/23/2007 4:49:11 PM drumroll please!
THE HOUSE IS SOLD!!!!!
I'm going to go collapse in a corner with a martini as soon as I get home from the office. 22267. arkymalarky - 7/23/2007 4:52:08 PM Oh man, that's worth an afternoon off, imo. CONGRATS! 22268. Ms. No - 7/23/2007 5:12:28 PM I'm taking off either tomorrow or Wednesday because I've got to go over to the University and get my schedule in order etc.
Now I'll be able to tutor in the Learning Annex rather than work to pay my rent. It'll start to put some teaching experience on my resume and then I'll be able to substitute in the Spring and enter the credentialing program in the Summer.
wheee!
Maybe I ought to just go home. It's not like I'm going to get any work done today anyway. ;-> 22269. arkymalarky - 7/23/2007 5:16:31 PM Hey, I just sent you an email about that! CA is different than AR, then, because here you could teach right away, full time, full pay, full benefits.
