[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 727144, member: 19522"] At the risk of sounding crazy, or one of those conspiracy theorists, I wouldn’t put it past them covering up a hack. Public knowledge of it would cause more panic than an “employee’s mistake”. The Japan incident is a touch too coincidental for my old senses. I have felt for a long time that government lets us know just what they want us to. My problem is I am a butterfly cleaner. Flitting from one project to the next and before I know it, the whole house is in disarray. I get ahead of myself. You know, lists are for checking off one at a time, not delving into 1/4 here and then moving to another, and another. (I chide myself). Slowly the tides will turn and I will get it under control. I know what you mean. I have chucked stuff or donated and then looked for it months after, then I remember and regret.I need to take inventory and write notes to self. It is annoying to get rid of something then need it later. Stuff. Too much stuff. I might be able to be a [I]border line[/I] minimalist for awhile but I think I would be bored. There has to be a happy medium somewhere between this mess of mine and neat and orderly. I have read on the other hand that messy people are smart....:rolleyes: although it does cause me some anxiety when my house isn’t in order. Me too. I am glad she is alive, but honestly Copa, she doesn’t come to see us. No conversation to speak of. Street looking boyfriend. He is somewhat clean but has what Rain refers to as “park rot”, swollen legs and sores. Ugh. Who is this guy she brings over? Her choice in men has never been good. She is not of right mind. As far as I know, still using meth. It is an uncomfortable feeling that she is popping in as she pleases. Son is angry about it and Hoku is here with her baby.

What a terrible thing to mistrust ones own adult daughter. On drugs, there is no telling what could occur. I will say after thinking over this and writing here, truthfully,[I] I hate this whole situation.[/I] I don’t often use the word[I] hate, [/I]but find it appropriate in this case. Maybe that is what makes me wistful when I write to those who are seeing some change in their beloveds. I do so wish it for my two, but after all of these years, it seems a far off dream. Not giving up on them finding their potential, but striving to find mine, despite setbacks and whatever the future holds for any of my kids. Life is a puzzling thing at times. I guess it is really about our attitude towards circumstances, how we see our way through. I will tell you again how nice it is to “see” you, Copa. Your presence is a comfort. Have a wonderful Sunday. (((Hugs))) Leafy [/QUOTE]
