I'm guessing the fact that you would share this pretty much ensures no one here is surprised by it.

Seriously. TMI threshold...

Only when I realize the windows are down and I am singing at the top of my lungs.
Oh, man! I would love to see the expression on your face (and on the faces of the people in the cars next to you)! :biggrin1:
What do you mean used to be? How can you stop loving Nsync?

Bye, bye, bye

Very true! I've stopped going to the Nsync message board that I belonged to, but I still love to listen to them. :nervous
LOL Lauren, at least YOU were in the right age group---I have children your age, and so I too can sing along with many boy bands---and others that are MUCH younger than what is considered my age of music!!!

Oh well--I also know every song Alice Cooper sings---thanks to my brother. Good thing Other people introduced me to different music I might still just have nothing but the Bee Gees playing!!! LMAO

My brother laughs every time he listens to a CD that I compiled. I'll have Nsync, Backstreet Boys, Alabama, Garth Brooks, AC/DC, Blue Oyster Cult, Prince, Black Eyed Peas, and various other hip-hop artists all mixed up together. Go from pop to rap to country to classic rock and back again....

I am fairly open with everyone about everything so there isnt a lot that would surprise people - other than the fact that I used to be a size 4 US!!!

I looked after my alchoholic mum for about 15 years, she wasnt the nicest person to be around a lot of the time, and I had to kind of step into her shoes with my kid sister ( she was only 9 when mum started drinking) til we became the comedy duo. Its amazing what you can learn to laugh about.

Part of me wanted her to die towards the end , when she had stage 3 childs (end stage liver failure) and I will always feel guilty for that. I put on her makeup and made sure she was dressed beautifully for her funeral - she always asked me to promise that I would- and then found that the hardest thing was NOT sitting with her in the funeral home, I hated the thought that I was leaving her there every night.....you can imagine how well I coped with the funeral.

I have been pregnant 14 times, I have 8 angels and 6 gorgeous kids, after my 6th baby I did 3 rounds of IVF in a desperate attempt to get number 7.Guess that the powers that be knew best because I am very happy now,and very aware of how lucky I am to have the munchkins I have got.

Most people are surprised to find out that my eldest 2 arent my DH's and that I have been married before, mainly becuase they are his kids IYKWIM.

Well thats me!

Nina, I would love to meet you and your munchkins, and the mate, too. I find the glimpses which you have provided into your life to be utterly fascinating. And this is why I will go on to describe a little more of my own life.

I will tell you and the rest of the LBT gang that neither of my parents were alcoholics but my father was much more pleasant when he had had a few. He was emotionally very unreliable when he was sober and living with him was like walking over mined territory. One simply never knew how the man would react. That his violence always took the form of psychological abuse was arguably worse; the victim never had any bruises, cuts or broken bones, nothing concrete to point to, just a dreadful sense of self-damage, and the feeling that she might have hallucinated the whole thing. For many years I used to joke that I wished that my father was an alcoholic. My father fit the classic abusive profile: when he wasn't acting out he was utterly charming. And he himself had lived a truly miserable childhood.

My mother was an enabler. My father was the first of her children. She adored him and as long as he didn't beat her children she was prepared to protect him. And so throughout our infant years we were subjected to his caprices, his rages, his insults, and his sudden tantrums, we were used to be criticised and terrorised and scuttling, in tears, to our bedrooms. Later on our mum would inevitably enter into the bedroom of the victime du jour, for my dad always isolated one of us in order to be his chosen victim, and tell the child that she or he had to forgive dad because dad had had a shitty childhood. And in this fashion mum added guilt to the weight of all the other negatives which were already weighing the child down. So I guess that this is something which folks might be surprised to know about me.

We have an Ipod, we take with us everywhere, and it has over 11,000 songs on it! You hit random shuffle and you never know what you are going to get....seriously!!

This summer we were in Red River NM at a motorcycle rally, and it was on--we were in the stop and go traffic of the main drag----motorcycles parked on each side of the road, and 2 deep in the emergency center lane, and we were driving down the road 2 wide, and tire to tire.....One song finished, I think it was like an old Deep Purple song---there is a big hairy guy next to us, and just as he ask about our FM modulator for the Ipod the next song comes on----Barry Manilows Mandy-----------I about fell off the bike laughing!!! I warned him against adding in the CD's he doesn't want to hear. You should have seen the look the guy give my husband---was great fun!!!

Green, I would love to meet you to ;) though the munchkins can be a little overwhelming en-mass!!!

I love the phrase 'enabler' that sums up beautifully dads reaction to mums drinking, well that and 'ostrich' LOL

How well do you interact with them now? Have you ever talked to them about it?I am sorry I dont know if they are both still around, and please feel free to tell me to keep my nose out! I only ask because I have had screaming matches with my dad, but my sister had chosen never to talk to him about it - more because she knows how much it would upset him - but then I was always the difficult one!

It always amazes me that having had a hard childhood why anyone would then turn round and inflict it on their kids.

The 'cyle of abuse' was something that I was determined to break, maybe that is why I had so many kids, the whole build my own family thing.

My sister has been in therapy for a few years to sort out her issues with everything that happened, and her relationship with dad. I think that she has slain some of the demons.She had enormous difficulty expressing negative emotions, and ended up crippled with panic attacks for 6 years on and off, she still managed to build a multi-million pound company though - I am so proud of her!!!!We are very close, unnaturally so sometimes,there was a time when it was almost to the exclusion of our partners.

I did actually have a lot of understanding for my mum and god did I love her, she was an only child from quite a wealthy very loving background, and in the space of 2 years saw all of them die from various forms of cancer.So she had no family, was griefstricken, and had pots of money - bad combination.

I think that even in the 30 years that have passed, we have learned so much about the mechanisms of grief, and counselling is so much more 'socially acceptable' that if it had happened now she would have got the help that she needed.

As it was she numbed everything out until one day she didnt need the drink to numb, she just needed the drink.

I will always feel the burden of guilt that I didnt,couldnt, stop her.It becomes a process of watching someone that you love commit suicide over a period of years, until the person that you loved isnt really there anymore, there is just a shell that looks a bit like them, but all the things that made them your mum are gone.

Phew!!! That was heavy but I feel better for it!

Thanks for the freeby counselling green.

How do you know this? Have men been rude enough to say something?

LOL I've always been told that any was good because it was better than not getting one! Maybe I was being lied to and I am really bad too!!:omg:

Only one actually said something about it. LOL He said something along the lines of I didn't so much give an actual blow job but kind of visit the region and absent-mindedly graze, kind of like a cow.... And it is true. I get bored really quickly and my jaw cramps up :phanvan and I am either unco-ordinated or have no sense of rhythm because I keep changing my approach to the biz. :omg: Ugh!

Once I tried humming while I was doing it. I thought maybe the vibrations might add an interesting twist. ;) Sadly though, the guy was a musician and I don't hum in tune. :heh: He found it very distracting. :rolleyes We had a good laugh about it. He was the one who told me that I gave head like a cow. It didn't really bother him; we were together for 7 years and I was the one who dumped him (a number of times). We are still friends. :biggrin1:

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.
