Sorry for the heart palpitations. <br /><br />I think you would be stronger than you think. It had been over a year since I last saw my mother face-to-face (she did appear at my house last June and yelled at our windows and prowled around our house, but I didn't interact with her at all). Despite the initial "Mommy!" feeling, I was able to be pretty calm. Well, aside from all the adrenaline. ;)Clairehttp://aconography.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4061406078687282740.post-3476594707712655702012-02-16T10:45:57.576-05:002012-02-16T10:45:57.576-05:00You are amazing.

My ...You are amazing. Seriously. (wildly cheering)<br /><br />My heart pounded as I read these two posts, but I was cheering you on as you did that. Good on you!<br /><br />(I like to think that I'd be that strong, but I haven't seen her in almost a year, and I just don't know what I'd do. Freak out?)<br /><br />And your husband rocks. So wonderful to have that kind of support and protection and love, isn't it? We may have been screwed over in the parent department, but not with husbands.Kikihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07682023318174229038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4061406078687282740.post-80332630777035384002012-02-15T12:33:44.367-05:002012-02-15T12:33:44.367-05:00Claire, you handled this situation beautifully. Ea...Claire, you handled this situation beautifully. Each successive situation/ambush you encounter and overcome will give you more self-confidence. Really.<br />I had a similar "ambush" situation which went badly so quickly I called the Troopers-and psychobytch took off before they arrived. I absolutely would have had her arrested if they could have found her. Obviously, if she had nothing to hide, had done nothing wrong she wouldn't have run to the closest interstate to get out of Dodge. That surely speaks to consciousness of guilt.<br />Claire, When we're making these kinds of life-changes it may feel weird initially. But all the work you've done to get to the place you are today is paying off: You DIDN'T reflexively open the door....metaphorically or practically. That speaks to how far you've evolved on your journey, IMO.<br />Congratulations!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
