I now understand your most recent post a lot better. I have a bit of a theory about mothers who harm their children emotionally. I sometimes believe a mother or father that feels unworthy as a human being must fulfill that image through hurtful behavior towards those that they should love the most. Did you know much about your mother's relationship with her parents? Perhaps her anger was at her own parents and she took it out on you. You are brave to post this and from the comments, I can see that it truly resonates with a lot of your readers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2487945587083638331.post-46586228090474927802011-08-19T11:55:23.645-05:002011-08-19T11:55:23.645-05:00Embarrassingly, I still haven't seen Mad Men -...Embarrassingly, I still haven't seen Mad Men - perhaps I'll have to hulu a season before the new one starts. I've never been good at doing much with my hair - it's straight and heavy so doesn't do the messy thing very easily even though I love the look.

My husband is bi-polar and his behavior ranges from extreme anger and mania to severe depression. I see the effect it has on our grown sons and try to help them get on with their lives and not let it get them down. It is hard not to feel guilty and be co-dependent.

I rent the series at the end of each season and have a little Mad Men marathon. This year they added bonus material on the history of divorce, especially during that time period. Did you happen to see it? <br />Hollyholly aka gollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04165342819918461245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2487945587083638331.post-70868473399258824702011-08-18T23:24:03.343-05:002011-08-18T23:24:03.343-05:00I miss pretty hair -- and these photos you have sh...I miss pretty hair -- and these photos you have shown today demonstrate exactly what I miss about it. <br /><br />I went back and read the post about your mother, because I missed it before. Our difficult relationships with our mothers always seem uniquely our own, until someone writes from the heart as you did. I wrote a book about my own mother, trying to make sense of it all. My last surviving aunt informed me upon reading it that she hoped I never decided to write about her. (Little does she know!)<br /><br />At any rate, you are right -- therapy, time, a good marriage, and a good relationship with my own son has put it all into perspective.Scribblerhttp://scribblerunfocused.comnoreply@blogger.com
