I too look forward to your visit to Local, perhaps with me in tow! <br /><br />Rima, Let me know if you get on board with the non-yelling experiment. <br /><br />Kim, the doormat issue is a biggie! I guess it's the difference between commanding respect and demanding it. And bon mots is a term that must now integrate itself into my daily vernacular. <br /><br />Misner, you're so funny and honest and I want to read your blog! I relate relate relate, esp. to the "childhood sucked" disorder. My second visit to Chiro is today. It's very exciting. I might have to bring him flowers or cookies. Yoga yesterday was sublime. Looking forward to more release. It's all so metaphorical, huh. <br /><br />xo<br />xo<br />xo,<br />eElise A.

LOL<br />But, really my thoughts are this, I started the whole Chiro thing about a month ago and let me tell you, it's bleeping wonderful! The release feels like anger, pressure and sadness escaping my being. According to Dr. Barry, who is the spitting image of Donny Osmond, it is in fact, Nitrogen. Hence, why I blow-up all the time! Humor - back to the back, I love the electrodes too! But, don't touch them with fingers - it does hurt! <br />The downside to Chiro, of course, is the lovely $15 dollar visit co-pays and the recommended $40-1/2 hour massages, 3x a week, not to mention the $55 pillow...anyhoo, one AmEx payment later reveals that I'm feeling a tad bit better. Like you I have dislocation, unalignment, mismatched legs and a lovely case of degenerative hip disease which will probably require a hip replacemenet in 20 years - lucky me! So I'm cracking and flexing on, with the small hope that I will one day turn into a super human lady with magical strength and agility, before I turn 40. <br />As for the screaming to the kid part, well let's just say I'm working on that, thanks in part to you! I'm being a follower, although not at work (DM) I'm still the pistol! Back to the kid thing, it ain't easy and I must have underlying mother/daughter/father/daughter/divorce child/stupid people raising me syndrome because the issues arise STILL. However, I'm thinking anxiety and anger are my new diagnosises versus depression and "childhood sucked disorder". In general, I'm a freakin nut case - worried about "the world" disease. It was never properly explained to me as a child how hard it would be to raise one of my own. Giving up every minute of my life, not knowing which direction to take next, cleaning up food, exhaustion, and of course stressing about 2012. Now that I'm the parent, I'm seeing me in her and my mother in me and it's bleeping scary. So, I figure with the help of the proper Chiro, frequent outbursts and regular blog visits, the future doesn't seem so bleak. And the toys this week, are all messy! BTW - sorry so long, still wired from work, excellent thinking post! Hopefully you like the writing, it's been a while since I've thought on the computer.Misnernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35497867.post-59603437419427118022009-11-05T23:02:05.807-05:002009-11-05T23:02:05.807-05:00It's so chockful o' stuff.

And I totally relate to the struggle not being constantly irritable not being a doormat the delicate balance of motherhood. ceiling jesus is awesome, you got to remember all these bon mots for your next book:)Amelia Plumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10657299431819650897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35497867.post-4652548688162792182009-11-05T22:28:46.378-05:002009-11-05T22:28:46.378-05:00I'm very interested in your non-yelling experi...I'm very interested in your non-yelling experiment (not that your tilted pelvis isn't fascinating.) I find what you said about the kids picking up on and responding to the slightest bit of irritability when yelling is no longer in the picture very intriguing. I also had a lightbulb moment when I read the part about constant irritability leading to yelling. By God, that is so true, why hadn't I noticed before? I think I'll use your blog and my own personal psychotherapy.Rimahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15883046753707687727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35497867.post-65689884681065974862009-11-05T11:14:32.024-05:002009-11-05T11:14:32.024-05:00i LOVE LOVE "ceiling jesus." that's ...i LOVE LOVE "ceiling jesus." that's awesome. <br /><br />and one time when aedan was around 3 or 4 he told rick "i am going to put you in an envelope, stick a big stamp on you, and put you in the mail and send you away." not quite as violent as the trash compactor, but the sentiment was the same: get the frick out of here, dad, you are annoying me. :)<br /><br />don't you think it would be awesome if sometimes we would just sit down and draw pictures of things like this? i could definitely benefit by drawing my own mother going into a trash compactor. for SURE.<br /><br />i'm excited for your chiro--i really hope it helps with the pain. <br /><br />and i'm looking forward to visiting that coffee shop soon! xokristihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04234188242645584572noreply@blogger.com
