- A Long Week -
13 years ago
This week seems to just get worse...
I have a panic attack at work because of a family emergency and have to leave. Get told my boss today that I have been absent 6 times in last year. He says that even though I have doctor's notes and good reasons, 6 times in one year is 'too much'. I need to work on it and work harder... This week at work I learned that a long time friend I told pretty much all of me and my husband's secrets too, told everyone about it. And she was the one person I told everything to. All about my husband being gay, Koji moving down, all of our plans... EVERYTHING. Then I find out that all my co-workers have there own opinion of my life and relationship with my husband and my marriage... While they are being my 'friends' to my face they are talking behind my back. Saying I should not be with my husband. Our relationship is wrong. I should not let him be with Koji. I should divorce him... And more horrible things...
And, I found out that they think that when I call in sick, I am faking because I have,"problems" at home... Really! I love my life! I love my husband and my little brother more then anything else in the World. They are the most important people in my life. We just want to be happy together...
Today, I discovered that a close friend of my husband and mine, has gone missing for the last 24 hours or so... He isn't answering his phone or texts... We are deeply concerned that something has happened to him...
I don't know how much more of this week I can take... Please, if you pray, pray for my family. Our friend...
Thank you all for your support and prayers.

If you need to, please note me, okay? I don't know what I can do but offer my loyal support and try to send some good luck your way.
You, Talla, are super-special for understanding, supporting, and loving Teal and Koji so fully and completely! Do NOT let these dregs of humanity get to you! The best thing you can do is ignore them the best you can, keep your marriage strong, and show them how seriously-WRONG THEY ARE! You're under no obligation to please them. Please yourself, hold your head up, and carry on to make it stick in their craw!
As far as I'm concerned, while "non-traditional," your family "works," and your coworkers' likely doesn't! I have the utmost respect for your family...ALL your family! What happens behind that front door is none of their concern, whether they know or not!
Loyalty is about all I can offer. I will not be like that "friend." I never need to know a thing. You have my loyalty and support...permanently! I wish all of you a lifetime and beyond of happiness!
I'll keep all of you in my thoughts as well!
You may all note me any time, for any reason! I will reply as soon as I can!
