Congrats on the interview Amy!!

LucyintheSky · 11-11-2008, 09:34 AM

about your dad moving down here... I hope he doesn't cause you and your mom too many problems.

And

for the 2nd job interview, I hope it goes well!

I've lived down here for 8 years, and am at the Beach Club ALL the time, before I go to Epcot, and I still haven't tried a burger at Beaches and Cream. They sound so yummy, too! I just never want to go by myself!

Minnie Lor · 11-11-2008, 09:43 AM

Keeping my toes and fingers crossed for your second interview.

I am so sorry about the dad situation. I don't know what else to say other than

My heart goes out to you and your mom.

**iamgrumpy** · 11-11-2008, 10:02 AM

Lucy- I'll join you at Beaches and Cream anytime! I love it there!!!

**Jamieaob** · 11-11-2008, 11:09 AM

GOOD LUCK!

buzzspal2 · 11-11-2008, 11:43 AM

Amy,
Good luck with your interveiw and I hope your Dad isn't too much of a pain.

**POOH** · 11-11-2008, 12:27 PM

for your job interview and for dealing with your dad.
I can't believe he moved so close to you!!
I also hope we get to see you some time next week.

**TinkerBelz** · 11-11-2008, 12:31 PM

Why did he EVER chose to move so close??? I mean, your mom was divorcing him. That's kind of strange.

for that job I REALLLLLYYYY hope it works out for you!

**iamgrumpy** · 11-11-2008, 12:48 PM

He thinks they still have a chance he just doesn't grasp the concept. I really wish I could go a day without having to deal with all this. Between trying to find a job, trying to support my mom, trying to live my own life, and all that I just really haven't felt like doing much then watching mindless tv and play on pogo.

I just want one DFD (drama free day) that isn't too much to ask is it?

**duck addict** · 11-11-2008, 01:12 PM

Drama free week

Huntermom · 11-11-2008, 02:09 PM

One suggestion, which I think may be hard to accept, is that the relationship between your mom and dad is only between the two of them. Life is very short. For all my parents' imperfections, I don't think I, like so many others, truly appreciated them until they were gone. Their relationship was rocky at times, filled with fights and bickering. It wasn't until my mom got sick and died that it became clear how much they loved each other. That last year was a gift to both.

You need to forge adult relationships with both your parents on your own. While you may be providing support for your mother, it would probably make life easier for everyone she worked out her relationship with your dad without involving you. I think it is nice that he travelled so far for her.

You seem very angry with your dad. I have no idea what he did to hurt you so much. I know there are things that are unforgivable, such as sexual abuse. But if you can, try to have a relationship with him, however limited.

When my DD's father left (5 days after her hs graduation), it was really hard for me to make sure she was not recipient of my hurt. It was also hard to stay out of things and let her deal with her anger towards him on her own. It's her relationship with her father. After two years, it is healing. I am saddened that it is not what I hoped it would be, but she needs to work it out herself. I also have realized that
some things that bothered me (her brother and I took her off to college, not both parents like her brothers went off), were OK with her.

I hope you get drama free time and I also hope things go well for you, your mother and your father. My thoughts are with you. I hope I haven't offended you. I just want to share some food for thought.

Diane

Amy I do not know you but I have to say from reading your trip reports you seem to be a great fun loving person and hope you dads arrival does not ruin your new life. You cannot move from Orlando because I have to say that I am living vicariously through you since you can just shoot on over to Disney for the day. So here are some pixies for you and your mom so that you can continue to enjoy your new life in Florida.

LucyintheSky · 11-11-2008, 07:20 PM

Cool, we should definitely meet at Beaches and Cream sometime!

**iamgrumpy** · 11-11-2008, 08:00 PM

I understand your thoughts Diane. How my father was acting towards ME was the problem. I haven't shared the big reasons with anyone other then a really close friend. Its something I prefer not to share and I was just voicing my feelings about my buffer zone is now gone.

My parents could get back together that is their decision, but its my decision on whether I interact with my father, now or in the future, and after what happened before moving if I ever feel like being near the man it would have been nice if it was my choice as to when and where.

So I do see your point, and my mom deals with my father how she feels necessary and when she wants. I worry about her safety as well as mine, thats why we chose a gated community. I worry about my mom because of her health concerns everyday. But she can choose to be with whoever she wants, I just don't have to be there, and I don't have to be happy about him being there.

This is a family board thats why most of the horrid details are not being given out. So thank you for lending your ear and sharing your advice.

So Moving Right along now that this discussion is cleared up....

Kungaloosh everyone the drinks are on me!

Ok so what exactly is a Kungaloosh? I went to AC last MF for the first time and didn't get one. Were they really that good?
