And left clicking on the correct spelling inserts the corrected word over the misspelled one. It has to be the new text you are entering into the field.

She is just a mean, vicious person.

My sister Leslie and I spoke today, for the first time in a long time (there had only been time and miles between us, nothing negative) and that conversation was wonderful. She has had the same interactions with my mother, she understands my position. <br /><br />I feel strong. I have named the monster, I have stated my boundaries, and I am free. Whatever comes as fallout from this in the short term will be easily dealt with, and then I will keep moving away from her and all the crap.Gladyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03379796403577898107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8679637238769603836.post-73437106703245706972013-07-16T14:44:04.495-07:002013-07-16T14:44:04.495-07:00This morning I was wondering why is it that people...This morning I was wondering why is it that people who get hurt and run over by their families are usually the ones who care what these very people think about them? People who probably never cared about us at all and certainly never helped us. Like just one more ass kissing and my mother/whoever will be nice to me or see me for who I am.

Now let the games begin....you'll learn a whole bunch more about which sister plays what role in this dynamic: Who's the placater/APOLOGIST, who's the Avoider, who's out for Blood etc.<br /><br />CONGRATULATIONS on asserting your right to be teated with dignity and respect as a "human bean."<br />Gladys, GOOD ON YOU!!! I was already pretty horrified by the way G. treated Mike, BTW. Then "mother" starts on him about his WEIGHT??? WTF? Yk, if there's one thing the military gives you starting from day one it's LOYALTY. So let's not confuse loyalty and "I gave my word" as a function of anything other than that. I'm not entirely certain Mike's buying what your FOO is selling, yk?<br />TW Tundra Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12262066568878267648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8679637238769603836.post-17891879273494262922013-07-16T13:48:59.239-07:002013-07-16T13:48:59.239-07:00Gladys, I am without Internet so I am typing this ...Gladys, I am without Internet so I am typing this out on my phone and have to be brief.
