Tough Week

It's been a pretty tough week around here. Solidifying my belief that if you blog about success that it will come back and give you a rather large bite in the arse.

When I finally remembered to do the lie detector test (energy test) it proved that J still has trouble believing that she deserves to have fun. And last week was fun on c ra ck. Nashville (not including the antics of Special k), the parkway, etc. J is temporarily residing in the guest bedroom downstairs until we get some things figured out. An antique chest, that was willed to me, paid the price.

Desperately needed to go to the grocery store and the pharmacy but couldn't go with both girls dysregulated. Connie came down to sit with them while I made a fast and furious 35 minute run to town. New world record.

Tapping of the week...."even though I don't believe I deserve to have fun, I'm a totally great kid and my mom totally loves me."

I tried to tweet you back at the time, but it looks like it didn't go through. I said- Must fight The Crazy! It will get better!

Poor little J. I hope she can work on that!

It'll get better. It always does. Then it will get worse and then better and so on and so on :) Just be good to yourself on the worse days. I know I am not always.

We're back from vacation and the fun has already begun (not that we didn't have issues, we did!) When you get one thing figured out, it changes and you start all over again. In the fight with you....hang in there.

Ugh! So sorry for all you guys. Maybe 3 steps forward and only 2 steps back with J now though?

That stinks. Did you knock on wood after the last few posts. Why is J in the guest room?

hang in there! I can only imagine what it is like at this moment, lots of ddep breaths, she'll get through this one too

Sigh. Little by little. I find it so sad (every single time) I get a new reminder that ours still can't fully embrace his deservedness. What they must have lived through to feel that they are so unworthy. You are doing a good job, and she IS healing (right before all our eyes). Try to remember that on the hardest days. (Easier said than done, I know.)

Sounds alot like my house these days with Corazon... But it is all part of the healing process. There are just sooooo many layers!

Hugs,
Dia

I missed how J broke her arm and what is the energy test? I thought I was keeping up with your posts, but I guess when it comes down to it, I am always behind and missing things. Waaaaaaaah!
