Martha Stewart Mommie Dearest

[Ales2]

An article about Martha Stewart's daughter who wrote about how hellish her home life was with her Mother.

I can't say I am surprised, I always thought Martha Stewart has many N qualities.....

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention what I thought was funny about this article was that supposedly Martha and her daughter became closer when Martha was in prison. My guess would be that prison is hard for Ns who are used to manipulating and controlling and suddenly have their freedom stripped from them.  While she might have been able to exert control over other inmates, having to surrender to the structure, routine and authority of the prison experience probably meant that her Nism subsided alittle, which allowed them to have more of a relationship.

All the other fluff, puff & stuff aside, if I ever have to go to prison, I hope I can be as  about it as Martha.

yes and indeed, prison gives them a captive audience.

...the bathroom door is a boundary issue.

Seems to be a curtain (a la theater) in some families.

Weird stuff around that w/my NexH²...

Ugh.
Hindsight.

Hops

On one side of the news is Martha bemoaning the loss of 1 billion dollars and at the same time daughter is flushing the media via her 'tell all' book.   My looksee may be jaundiced, but the book's mildly unflattering, boring details about mom (with her approval) looks like a commercial joint venture between daughter and Mom.   First thing you know Martha (or maybe Alexis will hold the cup) will be taking a collection at the bathroom door if anybody wants to take a peek!     Frankly, I think it should be the other way around.  If she/Martha flashes you, she pays!
