The first letter in "Dear Margo":

http://www.creators.com/advice/dear-margo/nurse-ratched-in-a-grammar-school.html

My third grade teacher was EXACTLY like this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  It took YEARS before enough adults LISTENED to the kids and started investigating!!!  The NQueen IGNORED what was happening until my fifth grade teacher pointed out to her that EVERY SINGLE STUDENT she encountered from my old school had the same issues as a result of this Third Grade Teacher's abuse!  By then, the Teacher-From Hell was attempting to become the PRINCIPAL of the school!

Feeling upset right now.  I just learned that one of my favorite wildlife....a Great Blue Heron...has been found dead a few buildings over from mine.  The neighbor, who found it, kept asking me how and why it died.  I have NO idea.  I don't know how old the Heron was.  I don't know what the normal life span is for a Great Blue Heron.  I have NO training nor the equipment to conduct a post mortem to determine the time and cause of death.  The neighbor kept repeating the same question over and over regarding how and why it died until my last nerve was plucked and I got snappish with him.

Geez!!!!

Had to take a long, hard, look at a connection with someone that I've known since 1984 and analyze whether or not this was ever really a friendship.  She's had a history of making obnoxious racist comments even though she is aware that I'm Biracial.  When I responded that I don't appreciate being called the N-Word, her response was that she was entitled to her opinions and "Get over it!"  When I was in the hospital, she was too busy.  When I was dealing with the NQueen dying, she was too busy.  But when SHE wanted something, I was expected to drop everything.

Today, she sent me a message via Facebook that was one time too many and I realized that this had never been a friendship in the true sense of the word.  It had always been one-sided with her demands that I give-give-give while she takes-takes-takes.

I blocked her.  Buh-Bye!

Recently learned that Dr. Phil will have a program on Maternal Narcissism.  Problem is that it will be broadcast on a channel that I can no longer receive ever since everything went digital.  RATS!!!!   :P

Started really thinking what components are the foundation of a HEALTHY friendship:

Respect

Honesty

Integrity

Did I overlook anything?
