I am stupid for looking at this

An infant, a 7-year-old and two women were terrorized by two men during a home invasion early Monday on the city's East Side, police said.

Police said that two men in their mid-20s kicked in the front door of a home in the 4100 block of Sunrise Creek at 1 a.m.

One of the men held the occupants of the home at gunpoint while the other man ransacked the home, police said. The men ended up stealing a purse before getting away on foot.

None of the occupants was injured.

No arrests have been made.

What was the stinkin' point of kicking in a door and then stealing a purse? I think they were raised in single-mother homes and felt guilty upon entry. Or maybe those two women had nothing for them to steal. Or maybe they were from post and suddenly grew consciences when they realized the women weren't Iraqis. So how close was this to me? Not really close at all, thank you :) Plus with my extensive Army training and my abnormally high amounts of motherly instinct hormones I think those guys would be leaving with guns up their butts and no testicles. Especially if they tried to take my external harddrive, it has all the pictures on it! It did scare me a little knowing it happened. Josh will probably read this and mention me getting a gun again. So lemme save you the time, baby. NO! I would shoot someone! Having a gun would make me more scared than ever and Noah would find it and get into it no matter what protective measures we used.

Stuff like this makes me miss Josh even more, though. Not that I don't miss him constantly anyway... pretty much all I do is miss Josh. It's to the point where I don't even realize it anymore until we're finally together and everyone just keeps saying how different we are with each other. It's like some robotic form of routine depression we adopt. Amazing how much of a difference one person's presence can make. What did I even do before I found my Josh? I was probably even crazier than I am now. What a scary thought. No wonder I was single.

On a sidenote: my sister showed me this clip on youtube and said it was Noah. It truly is and it's hilarious! Josh and I both agree... hehehe "the knack".

Allie Update

Though I have been depressed, life is trudging on. I had my 7mo baby appointment and everything is right on track. I'm 28wks and 5 days along. My belly is a whopping 29cm. I didn't get any guff about losing a little weight. My blood pressure wasn't high this time. My sugar test came back normal. I've got a little sciatica so the doc gave me some stretches to try out. She also suggested I finally cash in those 2 prenatal massage certificates I got for my birthday. Other than that, everything looks good. Noah got to press the button to find the baby's heartbeat. He loves this doctor, she always includes him. My friend Brandon, kind soul that he is, showed up yesterday to mow my lawn. He didn't just mow, though. He brought all his own equipment, including gas... he edged and weed whacked and blew all the clippings away. He went over the lawn twice so that everything would be mulched up pretty well. I couldn't believe how nice my yard looked. I

Victim Triangle

Thought I would share this on here since I've shared it with at least 3 people individually at this point.  I've been working on  establishing and maintaining healthy personal boundaries  so any instance in my life where I have unhealthy boundaries have been really obvious.  Still not great at dealing with those instances, but I'm getting better all the time.  While I'm working, this keeps popping up at different times to illustrate my inter/intra-personal communication cycles that need to be broken. https://www.karpmandramatriangle.com/ The hardest part for me has been recovering from taking responsibility for everyone's emotional state.  I would feel immense pressure to involve myself in other peoples' triangles, thinking I had to play the mediator role.  I would get intense feelings of anxiety, thinking about their expectations of me to fix their relationship... or feel it was my duty to point out if I saw an issue (without ever being asked or expected

Enough Planning, More Doing

I've been researching, reading about, diving into, writing about, and thinking about building confidence and self-trust for about 8 years now. It's time to get more intentional and active about it. I think I'm ready to move into that phase finally. I have a tendency to take in information and keep mulling it over, writing and expounding upon this that and the other, but now it's time for an actual plan. An action plan. I understand the problem as much as I can from the outside looking in. Now it's time to create learning opportunities: to make mistakes and deal with the consequences or to achieve something and deal with the praise. That's the next phase of learning... doing . So today I am creating a specific list of tasks that I have to do in the months ahead that specifically target insecurities and seek to force me to deal with the reality of those insecurities. The goal is to be able to build resilience  by proving my old voices wrong with a stack of accompl
