Me too! Mind you I was doing to change it another egg...

Dear Hair Dairy,

My hair has been a bit dry, the new flat where is a very dry place and even my skin is suffering. 

I got my giesha/kabuki red lining makeup from Hannari-ya the other day and have been playing around with it.  It makes a good lipstick that stays pretty well and is an awesome shade of red.

My bonsai is doing very well! I really thought I would kill this one.

My hips been giving me trouble, I've been overworking it by carrying things that are too heavy again (bad Lisabelle!)

I finnally got to up load some pics for my dig camera.  The upload dock was acting strange.

Here's my buddha shrine.


and heres the bunny who been hiding in the tall grass of my lawn.



I think these are better things to look at (ahem..)
Bye for now!

Thank you Juri chan!  I got the Jizo off e-bay.  He is also a bell with a sweet little tinkle!   We've got loads of different animals in my area.  I'm right next to a large park and we have deer, raccons and the cutest foxes this year.  I would love to photograph the Kitsune but there very timid.  This year they have a den near the house and the pups like to play in the field in the morning.  All you can see are little red flashes in the grass.   My skin is baring up. Soaking in coconut milk helps.  My hip has it moments but it hanging in there!

I hope you're feeling better.  Men......why? ???  But sierously, I hope you and your relationship/life are doing better today.   

God, have I been there. ((((((((((hugzzzz))))))))))))

One sad thing I've learned with time and experience is that people rarely just blurt things out that they don't mean. It all comes from somewhere, and you should take the things he says seriously...no matter how untrue, ridiculous, slanderous they sound. He's obviously very unhappy about something - possibly many things that have accumulated over time and never been properly dealt with - and it might require a different perspective than the one you've had all of this time to address his concerns.

Communication is they key. Once both of you have laid your respective cases out on the table (diplomatically), it should be easier to work through.

There's also the possibility, of course, that your guy is completely off his rocker. In which case, I've been there as well, and you have my sympathy...but you're on your own. 

Hope things clear up for you soon. *sigh* No one ever said that marriage was easy...even though it should be.

(((((((Lisabelle)))))))))

Marriage does take some give and take, but there are limits.  If your hubby says your relationship is beyond counseling, it sounds like he has decided there is no point in salvaging the marriage.  Obviously you can't force him to go for counseling, but you might go yourself.  It could help you work through your feelings about what is happening and maybe give you the strength to decide what you need to do.

Good luck - you are in my thoughts.

((((hug))))

I agree- it is possible to solve serious family problems, but if your husband refuses to cooperate and try again, there's little you can do. Sometimes things just go badly. It sounds to me that you have tried very hard to get things work- don't be hard on yourself, you have deserved some kindness.

Thank you for your openness and your honesty, Lisabelle. I'm sure that all of us are flattered that you trust us enough as friends (no matter how distant) and long-haired sisters to confide your more personal problems. We've all got 'em! 

I agree with Trisha and BB that you have to draw the line for yourself somewhere.

It's good that you're hanging in there, though. Just remember that if/when it gets to be too much, you'll know what you need to do and when. Deus and Natura have a way of arranging these things for us when we really need it. Trust in them and trust your instincts. And remember that we're all here supporting you.
