Nice email from my daughter~~~~
« on: November 06, 2007, 01:42:27 PM »
Hey all

A couple of months back I posted that I had told this 'long-time acquaintance' man that I no longer wanted any phone calls from him that took an hour to tell me all that my daughter is doing.

Then the woman who was here caregiver, began the same thing, so I emailed back "Please! no more emails filled with info on her'.

Then I thought, well except for my broken leg I had not emailed my daughter so I send one the other day, called Changes and mentioned a few things about how life has changed since I was younger, as I have done on here, then updated her on my 'new cast every week' thingy and mentioned my eye infection just as I was ready to use the car.

A friendly little piece with no pity me, pity me in it, and asked how things there were.

She replied the next day (yesterday) and it was a longish friendly mail mentioining my leg and eye and things there, how her very best friend had a heart attack, my youngest grandson is now 6'1" at 15 & granddaughter, 18, is going travelling in Europe.

Daughter says she is lonely and son is eating her out of house and home (as boys do)--last summer I think he was about 5'7".

I decided that if I want to know these things, then I want them to come to me from her, and not from some outside source that appears to be spying on her, and lording it over me that I don't know, but up to their dates, I had heard almost everything from her in bits and pieces.

I take nothing for granted; there were no harsh words either way, and receiving her mail felt good. This time she asked questions, which is 'asking' for a reply.

Love Izzy

So glad for you..... and what's going on with the guy who lords over you with info about your daughter?

How's everything healing?

I think my pink eye was really just part of that stomach bug virus :shock:  

It left when the stomach bug left.

Hi tt

Thank you

I love the word 'mutuality' in this case. It fits. You are cool too.

Izzy Dear-

Your news has been a real blessing to me (you are too ). You both deserve the love and companionship that you have been missing due to the wreckage created by super-Ns. What hard lessons you have learned, but now the answer is clear- Isittoolate? It is not too late!!!!!! Not by a long shot!!!!Your life and love are ahead of you yet!!!!

I am so glad for you both!!!

Love,

Changing

Thank you Beth and changing,

Just because it's me, I don't take for granted this will continue, but I hope so.

I don't beg, nor do I use guilt trips.

She has one child left at home, and spent a fortune having him tested for any problems, only to find out he was just lazy. Now he's pulled up his marks.

She  didn't say so, except for being lonely, that her daughter likely is now not living at home, at 18 .

She even made reference to some things that I likely had gone through that she is now!

Hmmmmmmmmmm

Love
Izzy

Hi Izzy-

Your daughter's picture is so adorable. Now through her own experience she knows even more how much you did for her and what you mean to her now, what she means to you-  it is geting normal!!! Not perfect, not devoid of all human frailties, but no N wackiness dominating the scene. She is truly blessed to have the benefit of Izzyfication! She seems to be intelligent (like you) , as well as pretty. Now you can see what your beloved daughter and grandbabies (I know they aren't babies anymore) are doing first hand!

Love and Happiness,

Changing
