Sad

Well, my in-laws have gone above and beyond. They have hurt me and my family terribly and I will not allow them near us again. It has been a horrible couple of days. I'm not looking forward to when MIL gets home from her week away because although this situation is the result of some really cruel things being said by her children, the blame will inevitably be placed with me.

That situation notwithstanding, a more pressing matter has arisen. I have heard recently that a dear friend is very ill and although he is a horse, the idea of losing him is causing me to break into tears at random moments. He is so dear to me and my family, more like a person than a horse. I can't imagine him not being there.
I know he's "just" a horse, but please keep him in your prayers if you're so inclined.
Thanks.

I'm really sorry. It's so hard to deal with how awful our family's can be to us.

It's them and not you. Sometimes you just have to draw that line in the sand and say "enough". Stay strong and I'm thinking of you.

'Just' a horse will be in my thoughts and prayers. I hope he gets better.

I am so sorry to hear things are going so rotten. The whole in-law situation is just so stressful and dramatic, which is the worst. Remember how I told you I cut my MIL for being that way? Well, right after I told you that she decided she wanted to be a part of our lives again. Let me tell you how fun that week was! I thought of you the whole time she and I were emailing biting comments back and forth. Funny thing, I felt bad for you that entire time. lol I hope that you get some resolution with all of it and that you can put the whole thing behind you soon. You don't need that in your life, and most importantly, you don't deserve to have to put up with it.

I really hope your friend rallies. Its hard to see loved ones fall ill.

Please be sure to take some time to take care of yourself right now.

Loads of love
