Center of the universe

I’ve had some issues with a friend of mine who doesn’t seem to realize that her behavior doesn’t just impact herself, but it impacts everyone around her.  After a lot of thought and prayer, I decided for my own well being, that I needed to to tell her that some of her decisions were affecting her friends (and I tried to be as nice and kind as possible, citing the way her behavior has affected me personally.)  But she just didn’t get it.  Every other word out of her mouth was “me, me, me” or “my” or “mine.”  I just had enough and had to tell her that I needed some space, because I had to take care of my own mental health, which of course she didn’t understand, because me having issues was out of the question.  Everything must revolve around her.  I’m so sick of people thinking that they are the center of the universe!!!

Congrats to Chad & Meridith

I want to send big hugs and kisses to my cousin Chad and his wife Meridith on the upcoming birth of their SON this summer!!!!  They went in for their ultrasound this past week, and found out that they’re having a boy, who’s due the last week of July.  I also want to send congratulations to Meridith’s parents, Rev. Rick and Chris and to my cousins Kent and Gail, the grandparents of this little boy.  I’m so excited to be Aunt Karen again!!!!
