gottawonderToday I am grateful for:
Just a quiet day at home with my Sweetie and the animals.
It's pretty cold, and lots of snow, so it's good just to "house up".
We did chores, and Ursula seemed chilled (possibly that wind) so we brought her into the garage to warm up for a while.
I wasn't sure how she'd behave in there. I've never had her inside before, and there's no real stall for her, just standing in the area inside the door.
She did quite well, in spite of my husband deciding to use the snow blower right up against the garage etc.
After chores, we just spent the evening inside, not really doing much. My Sweetie made some corn bread that will be mostly for himself, but I had a bit.
I spoke with Trainwreck, and she's working on making some nice drama for Christmas. Her son and his wife are pretty much horrible parents, and their general life is an ongoing shit show. Yet, her son helped to create that shit show.
Trainwreck believes that if he just left his wife, things would be way better for her son.
I don't believe that for one minute. I feel that his life would just be nothing more than even more fighting with his wife over child support and custody, and it would never be over. Also, I don't believe he really wants to leave her, he likely just wants their life to be better.
What they likely NEED is counselling, and lots of it. They need to get help for their twelve year old daughter who was diagnosed with Autism, but they've done nothing to follow up on that diagnosis.
They need help. A divorce is not going to help people who are so dysfunctional that they are f-ed no matter if they stay together or not.
I don't even know if they can be helped by therapy/counseling, to be honest.
Trainwreck urging him to leave his wife is so unhelpful, and it's selfish. Mostly Trainwreck just doesn't like his wife and I think she just wants to control her son's life. He's a pretty simple, passive person, and if he left his wife, Trainwreck would take over on telling him how to live, constantly.
So that sucks. It's not like Trainwreck has any clue of how to have a healthy relationship or live a decently functional life.
We did watch a movie about Ghenghis Khan that was pretty meh, though the horses looked authentically Mongolian, as did the landscape it was filmed in. Lots of it felt very authentic, just not great dialogue? It somehow managed not to be all that interesting in spite of great potential.
