Janet, she has a circle of friends that she calls, including the pastor, and they hear the same thing that I do......and give her the same advice. She also has an anger management counselor and a marriage counselor included in the group. When she talks to me she gives little hints that she needs stuff, like a car and other things. There are people who are ready to help her out WHEN she finally gets rid of her husband but she has to make that decision first. It's all such negative stuff that I'm really tired of hearing it. Glen and I are going to Wichita tomorrow and I made Glen promise that if she calls he won't answer her call. I need a break!!

Judy, I may have to just take it straight from the bottle. I checked and I actually have two BIG bottles!!!!

That would definitely get old listening to the same stuff over and over and giving the same advice over and over and her not doing anything about it. I would probably watch what I say, because she is probably telling her husband what everyone thinks of him and what she should do. You could always tell her in a nice way that you've given her all the advice you can and that you have things you need to get done. Keep the conversation very short and maybe she'll call someone else.

I wish her the best, but hinting for material help is not a good thing.


Just don't drink it on an empty stomach....you won't like it.....lol.

Good advice!!! You might also pick up a bottle to tiquela (sp?) while you are in Wichita. A couple of shots of it should do the trick, and you won't have that vanilla aftertaste.....

All us Yorkie momma's can relate to you poop issues. I still find it in the corner of the dining room from Zoe.

Enjoy your trip to Wichita!!!

Do you have caller ID?
Don't blame you for wanting to drink.

Puppy training? Tobie is good about peeing on the pads but will not poop on them, glad I have tile floors.

If I don't answer when she calls she ends up calling my husband. I've tried that. Today when we were in Wichita she tried to call Glen, I had asked him before hand to not answer her calls today because I didn't want to get upset over her problems while we were out having a good time. I don't know what she wanted but I'm sure that I'll find out tomorrow at church.

Hopefully, she will get divorced before you go nuts from her! I think you are doing the right thing, telling Glen not to answer her calls. If you both don't answer the calls, she will find somebody else to complain to.

I feel sorry for people in crisis, but when they use up your patience and your wisdom, you can' help them anymore. She does need to find someone new.
