Hi Nikko,
Do you have to go to all these court dates? Even the ones that determine a second court date? Doesn't the prosecutor handle that. Sorry if I upset you. Just wondering if you can find ways to make this easier on yourself. mari |

Hi,
I'm not sure about the weekend yet. Today was a big day with phone calls, a trip to the therapist to talk about sleep, and then 20 minutes at the gym. The therapist figured out that I like night-time better than the day-time and that that is why I stay up. She is partly right. .....I am so glad that she can stop talking to me about sleep hygeine finally! She did mention doing some hypnosis aversion exericises to helpe me dislike the night. I told her no freaking way. ![]() Then she asked me to think of things I like about the day that we could emphasize/work on/use to reward myself. I couldn't think of anything good about the day -- except that I enjoyed walking on the beach in the morning on the rare occassions that I have done itin my life. I don't see her for a few weeks.

Hi - Mari - I don't have to show up at the court hearings/pre-trials, but DV says it's a good idea to. Because otherwise I wouldn't know what the heck was going on. Plus it notes that the victim is present and my input to the prosecutor is important.
Plus, if I hadn't brought the priors and all, this would of gone to his advantage with a plea. Me being there shows that this isn't something, that I don't care about and want justice served. Make sense? It's not fun, but I don't even make eye contact with him, actually he is like a stranger to me now. It's real strange. People think that once the physical abuse is over, its all over. Well, it's not, the trauma, the depression, the mental anquish, the fear, the trust issue, stays with you, sometimes for a very long time. Since he had so much control over me, it's like he took a part of me with him. So, going to DV counseling, educates you, and helps make you look and think at things much differently. Makes you realize these people don't change, they continue to manipulate to their advantage, lie and con people. It's just there way of living, they think the world owes them something. Nikko |

Hi,
Hubby brought home a 5 month puppy (not sure of breed) for a few hours. ![]() I was at my girl friend's house when he called me to tell me his friend had a puppy to get rid of. I said, "Listen very carefully. No F'king Way!!" Then hubby called a few hours later to say that he and the dog were home in our apt. and happy. He was sure that I would fall in love with the dog. He wanted a trial period of a week or at least a night. (What part of "No F'king Way" does he not understand!!!! ![]() I came home, played with the dog, told him the dog was cute and lovely, and then explained to hubby all the reasons why he can't have a dog, especially a 5 month old puppy. Mostly, we're not home during the day for the dog. More importantly, I don't want any dog. And hubby grew up overseas in a culture that considers dogs bad. So he is not used to dogs. I would have to train him and the dog. And yes, hubby is motivated to learn about dogs but I am not motivated teach. I felt very bad but I made him get on the phone with the "friend" and bring the dog back. This was just before midnight. But screw it. The friend can't force me to take a freaking dog. Hubby is sooooooooo disappointed even now. ![]() I promised that at some future date we can have a dog. When I read what I wrote here, it sounds pathetic. I just can't handle the drama. I guess I should picture trying to explain this to my therapist. She would agree with my decision on no dog. ![]() Mari |

If you're a night person, then you're a night person, it sounds like. I'm a morning person. Even when I sleep too much and stay up too late- I'm still a morning person. I love to pop up fresh in the morning! (Which is why I'm sitting at the computer right now instead of going to judo lol. I guess I'd better hurry up!)
