(Weight Watchers Friendly Crock Pot Cooking Day 103)
Mom and I are visiting my sister in Tucson helping her get ready to launch her new business.
So, I needed something really really simple to make in the crock pot when we got back to her house last night.
With just 3 ingredients, this easy tasty Crock Pot Corn Dip fits the bill.
We dumped cream cheese, corn and a can of tomatoes with chiles into her little crock pot and before we knew it had a great little appetizer to enjoy with a glass of wine.
Light and flavorful, without being overly cheesy, it was a winner with all of us.
Each 1/4-cup serving has 79 calories and 2 Points Plus.
- 8 ounces light cream cheese, cubed
- 10-1/2 ounces canned tomatoes with chiles (I used rotele)
- 1 can (14 to 15 ounces) corn
- Ideal Slow Cooker: 1 to 2-Quart.
- Fully drain the can of corn and discard the liquid.
- Partially drain the can of tomatoes, leaving about half the liquid.
- Pour the corn and tomatoes with their remaining liquid into the slow cooker.
- Add the cubes of cream cheese.
- Cover and cook on LOW for one to 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until cream cheese is melted and dip is warmed through. Serve warm with your favorite veggies and corn chips for dipping.
- Makes about 2-1/2 cups
This easy crock pot corn dip can be easily double or tripled to feed a crowd!

Lot of folks have been wondering about this question in the comment threads. Obviously Coach Jim Mora was asked about it when he talked to the reporters today. Well here is the answer:
Mora when asked how Brett Hundley's ankle doing:
"Good. No X-rays, MRIs needed. We should get Sheldon (Price) and Darius (Bell) back for practice on Tuesday."
So there you go. You all can exhale together now.
His comments on defensive adjustment in second half was also interesting:
On the defense's second half adjustments:
"We didn't pressure one time in the second half. When we pressured in the first half we gave up some plays. We played gap control defense and kept our eyes on (Taylor Martinez) and not give him escape lanes. We basically just backed off on the pressure and limited our calls to those we really feel good about, and they did a heck of a job with it."
You can read more on Mora's Q&A with the reporters here.

When living on less than $2 a day, every choice you make is an important one. Will you pay your rent? Or school fees? What will you eat today? How much will it cost? To save money, most Kiberans only eat one meal a day. And even those who can only afford one meal often share with others who have even less. To stretch the budget, many meals are inexpensive and filling – most common is ugali (maize meal), sukuma wiki (collard greens) and beans. Most meals are not nutritionally balanced, and often don't include meat because of the cost. Imagine working as a manual laborer, trying to concentrate during school, or practicing with your soccer team without any food in your stomach. Try it for a day.
"I tried to stick to Ali's diet. Eating the same meals gave me a better sense of life in Kibera. Plus, I wanted to challenge myself to see if I could actually do it. I was self-conscious about having grown up comfortably and wanted to prove that I could defy the stereotype of the soft, pampered middle-class kid.
Ali drank a cup of strong tea in the morning and then went all day until his first and last meal, which generally consisted of sukuma wiki and ugali. It was as if Ali fasted all year. For the first time in my life, I experienced insatiable hunger. My stomach ached for food when I was with Ali. The hunger was all-consuming, and I ashamedly gave up on Ali's diet after two days."
P.63 of It Happened on the Way to War
At home, when I wake up I absolutely have to eat something to be able to focus throughout my day. Breakfast is not a luxury often seen in Kibera. In fact, neither is lunch. After a day of work the average Kibera household returns to their house for a big dinner. Once I woke up I could feel the hunger crawling at my stomach all the way until dinner. Hunger makes everything far harder and unsatisfying. Hungry is a terrible way to live.

So we had a meet-up last month at
The Local The Loop for the Iowa-Northwestern game that was so much fun we decided we'd try and so something for the Big Ten Tournament. Well, lo and behold, the Big Ten Tournament is upon us! So let's do this again.
1) How many Twin Cities-area BHGPers are interested?
2) Where would you like to go? We went to
The Local The Loop last time, which was swell, but I'm open to other suggestions.
3) When do you want to do it? Just the Iowa game on Thursday night? Or meet up for the entire Thursday evening session?
Anyone is welcome to attend -- posters, lurkers, fans of other B1G teams who live in the Twin Cities, whoever. So let's get a little discussion going.

Avoid using improper SEO! The ideas contained in this article will help you overcome any potential hurdles when it comes to getting your site indexed by the search engines. Many times website owners forgot to proofread their sites, and that is a huge mistake. You need to make sure that you website is easy to read for visitors and for search engine spiders. If your site contains misspelled keywords or numerous grammatical errors, search engines may simply dismiss it as irrelevant.
Before beginning a website, research information about your keywords. Learn which keywords will be best for you to incorporate into your website.
You entire website such be easy to navigate and read. You can increase your search engine ranking by concentrating on keeping your site uncluttered and functional. You can also increase your rankings by adding functions for accessibility such as a tool to increase font size. Make your site for people and the search engines. You need to have patience to get better SEO. Nothing will happen or change in one night to dramatically increases your traffic. Rather, it may take many weeks, even months, especially if your website is brand new. As in a business you would run on offline, your reputation will take time to build.
Seo Style
Joining organizations like the BBB and your city's Chamber of Commerce can improve your site's search engine rankings. They will link to your website and help with searches that are local.
AP Style is generally a much more effective tool than SEO style. SEO style means you should try to repeat certain keywords as much as you can without breaking the flow in the article. As search engine rankings are built off the presence of keywords, your content will shine if you pay close attention to the words you use. There are an almost limitless amount of techniques out there for SEO but trying to learn them all is a mistake. There are not enough minutes in a day to get a hold of every technique. You need to focus your understanding on just a few areas and master them fully. You can experience an increased number of search engine hits by inputting plural forms of keywords. Keyword stemming is applied by a few search engines. For instance, choosing "accountant" as one of your keywords means that people who type in "accountants" or "accounting" may not be directed to your website. Use keyword stemming as an advantage over your competition. Use longer forms of your keyword as well as the main keyword.
If you want to get your site to rank higher in searches, then post a good volume of content on it, all related to your site's niche focus. For instance, if you have a baseball blog, include articles on topics such as baseball equipment and baseball cards.
You should focus on writing original and relevant information on your website if you wish to increase your search engine ranking. To get a lot of traffic, you'll need to offer unique content that can't be found elsewhere. Unique, informative content will net you repeat visitors. Make sure that incoming links, as well as links within your site, use keyword phrases. " as your main anchor text. This can help search engines rank your site based on the relevancy of your keywords. Do a daily check of your site to make sure the internal links use good keyword links. Make sure every page of your site is tightly focused around both your primary keywords and your niche. Continue to add content that focus on your main and long-tail keywords, as well as articles that are relevant. Remember to include keywords in your image tags and links as well. Try to place keywords in other areas with text to increase the relevance of your content.
Only work with directories that have quality sites to exchange links with. There are too many worthless links you could accept.
Remember, there just as many ways that search engine optimization can go wrong as there are ways that can tremendously help a website. Avoid being blocked by search engines and increase your visibility with these tips.

Yellow Fever is away this week, curing cancer, teaching Oregon fans to read, or doing whatever other charitable acts he does in his free time. In his absence, I will dutifully fill you in with everything that occurred in CGB Fantasy World over the past week. First we have our college pick 'em standings.
Overtaking Da (Other) Bears, bearbackers pics rides a strong Week 3 performance to the top of our charts. After the jump we have a breakdown of the pick 'em results, fantasy college recap, baseball, and, of course, some public shaming.
Highlights from this week's pick 'em:
- Cal Rose Bowl or Bust, px, aussie_picks, crazed fan, Bear_Territory, Punters Are People Too, Still No Stanfurdium (me!), 238 Evans Hall, 7-5 or bust, and Montezuma's Revenge should all be ashamed of themselves. They all picked Ohio State to cover the 17-point spread. I personally picked Ohio State as a reverse jinx, so I'm off the hook. The rest of you should hang your heads in shame.
- In none of the games were we unanimous with our picks. Actually, with several picks we were all in agreement except for Justin Bieber Rules. He picked every single FCS team to win. Not surprisingly, he also finished dead last in this week's results. Had he picked against those FCS teams, he would have finished in the top-20 this week. Not bad!
- 13 of 57 picked Stanford to cover the spread against USC. You know who you are.
- Sactown Golden Bear forgot about this week's picks and dropped from 4th to 56th.

I'm flying solo to Thailand on the 21st. I will most likely be in the Tonsai/Railey/Phi Phi/etc area for the next 4 months. If you are also rolling solo or have a large or odd number group I'd be happy to climb with you. I've never climbed in Thailand before, however, in the states my current sport onsight level is 10d-11b. My hang dog level is 11d-12b. I'm looking to move up both of those by climbing as much as possible the next 4 months. I'd also like to try deep water soloing and take a boat out for some random multipitch sport. I've been climbing full time (mostly trad) for the past year and will be continuing to for another year. To help you decide if we'd enjoying climbing with each other, this is how I prefer to sport climb: warm up on some 5.10 you know you won't fall on, try a few climbs that you have a good chance of just barely onsighting, and then work some projects (this involves lots of hang dogging and/or redpoint attempts {in other words belay intensive! I hope to do the same for you}). If you don't like to fall or hate to hang dog belay, you probably shouldn't climb with me. I also prefer climbing in the shade, long days, and long walks on the beach...jk. I'm flying into Phuket, so I will most likely be rolling into Tonsai the 25th or 26th. Jack
Also, I'm wondering if anyone knows if they sell ropes in phuket/railey/krabi? I'm gonna be traveling light so if I could buy on there, that would be great.
I know that you can buy about anything you need (including a rope) for sport climbing in Railey.
You can buy ropes but a new rope is the last thing I would want there. Expect a rope to get trashed quickly due to sand. Bring an old rope if possible. Have fun, that place is heaven on earth.

We're SorryClose
Terror-ific Kids' Costume Contest
Shane TV
- Contest Photo by: 1fnygrl
- Freehold, NJ
- Category: Creative Creatures
Brief Description:
Our six-year-old son asked to be a television for Halloween this year- so I did my best to accommodate his request. I figured a flat-screen would have been an easy out and wouldn't have a lot of detail - so I went with an older model with dial and speaker. He's even got the power cord and screen "glass" for the tube. It took about six hours to complete, but was well worth all of the effort just to see his smile when he first set his eyes on it! :)
Foam board, foam sheets, knitting needles for the antenna, black decorative tape, cardboard box for "tube" of the television, wheat germ lid and LEGO piece for TV dial, and black poster board for antenna "hat" and silver for the "tube".
Time to Create:
This television took me six hours to complete.
Contest Photo Tips and Guidelines:
- Avoid clutter. Keep the background simple -- your gingerbread house or holiday cookie is the star!
- Daytime, natural light is best. If your area is bright enough, try taking the photo without the flash.
- Upload a horizontal photo. If you crop the image on your computer, make sure you keep a landscape 4:3 aspect ratio.
- For best results, make your image 1200x900 (or "save for web").
- With a digital camera, you can take as many photos as possible and choose the best one. Have fun!

We Lived Poetry
We lived poetry: its rises and falls, its skipped lines and its reasons for spaces, but, despite the gaps, each time, like the ending of the line, our lives were wrapped together in the feeling that goes beyond each word, that breaks the rules of a sentence, that leaps over the stanzas, that says: … Continue reading

Ohlendorf eyeing another strong start
Pittsburgh (16-21) at Washington (11-25), 7:05 p.m. ET
PITTSBURGH -- The Pirates concluded a successful six-game homestand against the Cardinals and the Rockies with a 4-2 mark Sunday. They now open a 10-game road swing with a four-game series against the Washington Nationals on Monday.The Pirates are hoping for another solid outing from right-hander Ross Ohlendorf. The 26-year old posted a win in his last start, against St. Louis, on Wednesday. He went six innings and allowed one run in a 5-2 victory. Ohlendorf has won four of his past five decisions and is sporting a 3.77 ERA this season. "I feel good about the way I'm throwing the ball," Ohlendorf said. "Throwing strikes is the big difference from last year. I'm throwing more strikes and pitching with more confidence. Ohlendorf is gaining confidence in all of his pitches. "Last game against St. Louis, I mixed it up a little more," Ohlendorf said. "My changeup has been good the whole time, and my fastball. My slider has been inconsistent, but I think I've figured it out now." Ohlendorf is far from satisfied, and he wants to continue to make progress and keep his team in games. "I would like to have pitched even better than I have," Ohlendorf said. "It's been a good start so far, but I've had some games that I wish had gone better." Pitching matchup
PIT: RHP Ross Ohlendorf (4-3, 3.77 ERA)
Ohlendorf allowed just one run in hist last start, coming on a Skip Schumaker home run. Ohlendorf, who has relied on his sinker, mixed things up with a four-seam fastball, slider and a very effective changeup against St. Louis. This will be Ohlendorf's first appearance against Washington. WSH: LHP Ross Detwiler (0-0, 0.00 ERA in 2008)
Because of the off-day this past Thursday and Saturday's doubleheader against the Phillies, the Nationals will need an extra pitcher to start Monday against the Pirates. Tidbits
Pittsburgh outfielders lead all Major League teams with 12 assists, followed closely by the Reds (11), Rays (11) and Astros (10). ...

Absolutely Amazing!!! Bucket List Vacation!
Dear Alexis and Mike, You were correct when you said the trip to Costa Rica would be an adventure. I can't thank you enough for sharing your home with us. Diego and Jennifer were amazing, so helpful and good to us. The house was breathtaking, I felt like I needed to pinch myself to make sure I wasn't dreaming! Diego took us on 3 excursions and Jennifer's Dad made dinner for us one evening. What a gift to have these resources right there for our taking. It could not have been more convenient. Portrero was so quaint and welcoming, we enjoyed the fact that everyone knows everyone. The food was great, we may have gone to Las Brisa's three times. It was so exciting to be there during the soccer tournament and root for Costa Rica to win! The people are so dedicated to their team and country. Diego mentioned that you may be selling one of your homes. Please keep in touch, it would be nice to stay in either place again. Once again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for sharing your homes with us. Sincerely, Debi, Torey and Dina Knight
Perfect home-away-from-home with breathtaking view
This property made our Costa Rica vacation comfortable and complete! The property has so many unique spaces that fit whatever mood we were in - from the pool (which took on different personalities at daytime and night) and quiet reading spaces (inside and out) to cozy spaces for relaxing with friends and cooking. We especially enjoyed the outdoor bar and lounges on the top floor. The location of the house made a convenient base of operations: it was simple to call a massage therapist to come to the house, to arrange transportation for side day-trips zip-lining and river touring, or just to run to the grocery store to stock up on provisions. The house had a great book of local resources and tips for getting around the region. The views were absolutely amazing. I cannot overstate that enough. We got to enjoy mornings and evenings outside and felt like we really got to know the bay. Listing description completely accurate, property clean and well-maintained. Easy to work with management. I would recommend this property to friends and relatives without reservation - in fact, I have!
Wonderful Vacation Home for Family and Friends
My family and friends were able to enjoy the wonderful home in July. We had 5 kids ages 5-12 and 6 adults. It was the vacation of a lifetime. The house was extremely clean and well-kept. Lisa was more than responsive to all of my questions and was a big help in assisting me with planning our vacation. It was great having Blanca and Herman to spoil us. Yoko was a great resource to have during our stay. The kids loved having access to all the movies during their afternoon break. There were so many beautiful places to sit for dinner, lunch, and games. The house could not have been in a better location. We had our own private beach for 10 days. The kids (and adults) loved boogie boarding, walking the beaches, and taking in the beautiful sunsets. We walked down the beach to nearby restaurants and were very pleased with all of the owners' recommendations. We travelled to Tamarindo for a day to shop and take surfing lessons. We also went on a canopy tour and catamaran sunset cruise. These were all in the house book we were provided. We referenced this book daily. We used Yellow Fin for all of our excursions. They were also wonderful. Even though there were so many more activities we could have done, we spent most days in the pool or on the beach. I didn't quite understand the meaning behind "Pura Vida" until I was able to visit Casa Playa Bonita!

The palace of the Kutai Kartanegara Sultanate was built in 1963 as a replacement for the previous palace burned and was inaugurated on 25 November 1971 by Governor Wahab Abdoel Sjahranie, then handed over to the Ministry of Education and Culture dated February 18, 1976. Kedaton Hall has now been built as the residence of Sultan Aji Muhammad Salehuddin II has been named back in 2002.

Asia is the biggest continent on Earth, a darling little gem floating around in space.
Hm, what is Asia? Who's in on it?
China and India are safe bets for Asian nations. Korea, Japan, Thailand, you're fine.
Europe? No. Europe would sort of be on the "Asian continent" if not for those pesky Ural mountains dividing things up in the middle, and then also the whole lineage of kings and wealth and nations and the EU and all that "give me my respect" stuff.
Russia would probably be happiest as its own continent, so for now we'll leave it in "Eurasia" and just hope the natural gas supplies keep flowing.
Pakistan and Afghanistan are dang close to Asia, but politically they show up in "Middle East" news stories an awful lot. Verdict: Eurasia.
I guess we'll actually have to consider everything from Turkey on eastward to be "Eurasian", although the moniker seems overlappitory of the territory.
The Asian economy is now officially raging like a wild furnace of lava that consumes everything in its path. Japan has had the largest individual economy in Asia for decades, but it is forecast that both India and China will outstrip Japan within twenty years.
China is the largest holder of United States debt and is positioned to become the world's next superpower, provided that Godzilla doesn't return and decide to stomp everybody back into the Shang Dynasty.

Re: Who do we need most, from the draft
I don't see Bush falling past #3 overall... I just can't imagine it happening.
What about Maroney? Do you think he's got what it takes?
Value-wise I don't see ANY point in taking an OL high 1st round.... good players drop far in that position.
Our DL will be fine, we're dinged up bad but do have depth; season ending injuries tend to throw that off though.
LB - we are seeing our boys develop, I don't see that as our most imminent need.
CB - I won't touch it.... still too pissed
Safety - Fox should have had opportunities but we put him on IR
OL - Birk coming back will be HUGE for us. Our rookie can develop and Fonoto (sp?) is still unknown... But some depth would be good.
QB - hard to give up already... but if some serious talent fell to us, it may be a worthwhile draft.
RB - Yes, if we got a gamebreaker, it would be huge for us. Reggie Bush... Lawrence Maroney (yes I know I've got a MN bias... but he's got skills). I think this would do wonders for us.
WR - We're good here.
Trust me, I'm a doctor.
Re: Who do we need most, from the draft
Oline, RB, then best player available.

"12 Years a Slave" affected me differently than Quentin Tarantino's "Django," which in its caricature style held me spellbound or suspended in a place of imaginative wonder – the Black man was going to win and get the girl too in the end. "Twelve Years" moved slowly and by the time Northup's ordeal ends we are thankful yet exhausted. I saw the film alone. I think it's the kind of journey one should invite a companion on.

DETROIT -- The government has expanded an investigation into fires that can start in the doors of several Toyota models, adding 600,000 Camrys and other vehicles to the probe.
The investigation now includes 1.4 million cars and SUVs from the 2007 to 2009 model years. When the probe began in February, it involved more than 800,000 Camrys and RAV4 SUVs from the 2007 model year.
Certain Camrys from the 2008 and 2009 model years, as well as some 2007 to 2009 Yaris subcompacts and all 2008 Highlander Hybrid SUVs, have been added to the investigation, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said on its website Monday. The vehicles were built from September 2006 through August 2008, the safety agency said.
So far, Toyota and the government have received 161 complaints of fires involving the vehicles. Nine people have been hurt, according to government documents.
All the vehicles use the same power window switch in the driver's door. The switches can overheat and cause fires, the government said.
NHTSA has upgraded the investigation to a so-called engineering analysis, which can lead to a recall.
Owners of the Toyotas who smell smoke or feel heat in the doors should call their dealers or take the vehicle in for an inspection, Toyota spokesman Brian Lyons said. The company is cooperating with NHTSA in the investigation, he said.
Toyota's Camry midsize sedan is the most popular car in the U.S., and the RAV4 small SUV also is a big seller. In December, the 2012 Camry received a five-star safety rating from the NHTSA, the agency's top rating.
Toyota's reputation has taken a hit over the past three years due to a string of huge recalls that ballooned to more than 14 million vehicles worldwide. Millions were recalled for acceleration problems, and Toyota replaced floor mats that can trap gas pedals and pedal assemblies that can stick and cause cars to take off by surprise. After an exhaustive probe, U.S. safety regulators, aided by NASA engineers, found nothing wrong with Toyota's electronic throttle controls.
Federal safety regulators also are investigating a similar fire problem in the doors of 2006 and 2007 Chevrolet TrailBlazer SUVs made by General Motors.
NHTSA posted documents Saturday saying that the GM probe also had been upgraded to a full engineering analysis. Originally the investigation covered more than 309,000 TrailBlazers from the 2006 and 2007 model years, but the government said it's up to nearly 342,000 vehicles.

We were pretty sure that no one liked chocolate more than we did. We were wrong. Really wrong. Last week, the head of a British hedge fund bought a billion dollars worth of cocoa beans on the futures market. We've written previously about how cocoa beans are traded on the futures market, to refresh your memory check out the blog post on cocoa bean trading. Not only is that an insane amount of chocolate, he did something that is almost never done. He actually took delivery of all those cocoa beans!
Normally when people buy cocoa on the futures market, they sell their contract before they actually get the cocoa beans (if you're confused, don't worry we were too.) Anthony Ward, however, actually received all billion dollars worth of cocoa beans. That is 240,000 tons of cocoa! Mr. Ward bought so much chocolate that he's earned himself a new nickname 'choc finger' after the famous James Bond movie character 'Goldfinger'.
We were trying to come up with ideas of what we would do with all the chocolate. The best thing we could think of would be to declare a national Chocomize day of celebration and give everyone free chocolate. I doubt that this is what Anthony Ward is planning on doing (he's hoping that the price of cocoa beans will incease so he can sell all his cocoa at a profit.) Either way it's hard for anyone NOT to be jealous of someone with all that chocolate. I guess we'll have to just go eat some Chocomize bars until we feel better…

Brandon Jacobs. That's what Pete Prisco of CBS Sports thinks. Even when Jacobs was getting 1,000-yard seasons in 2007 and 2008, Prisco felt that he was overrated. He thinks that "the Giants offense is significantly better when Ahmad Bradshaw, all 5-9 of him, is in the backfield."
I know that Jacobs won't make guys miss and he does run too uprightly but saying that he's the most overrated player in the NFL is too much. I'm sure there are other players making more money who have done less for their team. Roy Williams of the Cowboys and Jay Cutler of the Bears come to mind.
As for his assertion that the Giants are better with Bradshaw than Jacobs, I'm not ready to say that either. Sure. He can fit through holes in which Jacobs cannot. He can avoid tackles that Jacobs cannot. Still though, I don't trust Bradshaw's ability to pick up the blitz and with our passing game and older O-line, that's very important..
At least he recognizes that Terrell Thomas is the most underrated player on the Giants. Aaron Ross better bring it in 2010. On Giants.com, Bruce Johnson said that he feels that he still needs to earn respect from the coaches and his teammates. He's not taking anything for granted. If Ross doesn't take care of business, he could be no.4 on the depth chart.

Seek law establishing "gang-free zones"
Bob McDonnell will propose the expansion of "gang-free school zones," into "gang-free zones," similar to the "drug-free zones," currently in our state laws.
Subjects: Criminal Justice, Education
Anti-gang law signed in 2010
Updated: Monday, October 31st, 2011 | By Sean Gorman
Gov. Bob McDonnell, while campaigning for governor in 2009, made a series of proposals to combat gang crime in the commonwealth.
Among his ideas was expanding so-called "gang free zones" that provide enhanced penalties for gang-related crime occurring within them.
"Bob McDonnell will propose the expansion of 'gang-free school zones,' into 'gang free zones,'" similar to the drug-free zones currently in our state laws," McDonnell's campaign said in an August 2009 news release.
McDonnell said the zones would be used to crack down on gang activity at school bus stops, community centers, parks, libraries and state hospitals.
At the time, drug-free zones were limited to school grounds, as well as any public property within 1,000 feet of elementary schools, high schools and colleges.
What"s the status of that promise?
Shortly after becoming governor in January 2010, McDonnell backed a House bill that called for expanding the zones to include any school bus stop as well as any property of a publicly owned or operated community center, park, library or hospital.
The General Assembly passed a watered down version of the bill that expanded the zones to the buildings and grounds of any publicly owned or operated community center or recreation center.
McDonnell signed the measure. His spokeswoman, Taylor Thornley, said the governor thought the bill was a "great improvement" over the previous law.
McDonnell pledged to propose legislation but did not guarantee a perfect outcome. We rate this a Promise Kept.

What Have You Done For Me Lately?
I'm ready to move this person into the "acquaintance" column. I've looked back at the relationship over the years and there are not a lot of entries into the asset column. This is a relationship that's definitely in the red for me. It doesn't mean that I won't be friendly, etc - it just means that I am through "doing". If it's for "fun and for free" then that's fine - I just need to set that boundary for myself. Detachment without drama. No need to announce my new rules - just start enforcing them. It feels good to get some clarity as the whole deal was causing me some real anxiety (Hello - my name is Roxie and I'm a people-pleaser).
Weekend was productive - got in a great ride on Saturday and lots of work around the house over the rest of the weekend. I decided to skip the cookie party and went to see Pl@ying For K33ps" - horribly bad movie - with Marti when she asked. It was good choice for me - it was showing at one of those dinner and a movie places, but I opted to eat at home before going - again, a good choice for me. I wasn't even tempted by the popcorn, which is a treat I normally allow myself when in the theatre.
Cammy 's graphic said about the phone. I've also heard it said "Oh my goodness - I've got a flat tire. Let me just get out and slash the other three". Same deal.
Take good care of yourself. Be kind to others. Get as good as you give.

Loved the first two paragraphs of your post. I, too had a friend like this. My husband called her the bloodsucker. But she sealed the deal last spring with a totally unfounded note that she MAILED(didn't even have the courage to speak about it) to my house listing all of the things I'd been doing wrong. That was it for me. I chose to practice your "detachment without drama" and ignore the note and her. Which, of course, is driving her nuts. Several months of the "ignore" tactic has worked for me and now there's a freedom which only in retrospect, tells me how uncomfortable I had truly become with the relationship. Should've listened to the hubs a long time ago when he first said, "I don't like who you are after you've spent the day with her." Yikes!! Take care!ReplyDelete
Ugh. I have lived through the cutting of the wire between me and my 'emotional vampire.' I had NO idea how much stress she was putting me under until I ended the friendship. Email me if you need to work through this a bit more. I'd be happy to share - and good for you for knowing that it's time, instead of trying to rebuild something that's obviously gone.ReplyDelete
"Detachment without drama." That may be the most amazing phrase I've heard in a long time. Your whole topic resonates with me, as I have a couple of people in my life who are of the Emotional Vampire ilk and somehow keep me stirred up when I'm with them. Good for you for taking care of yourself.ReplyDelete
You never cease to amaze me. You are thoughtful and doing good things for you. Between the dating thing to the kind of people you have decided to allow into your life. Over the past couple of weeks, you have really made some great YOU choices. Thanks for your example, as always.ReplyDelete
I like the tire analogy better .:)ReplyDelete
"Detach" is my mantra these days.
Something I've recently learned about boundaries and saying "no" is that they key is to do it understanding that we're not trying to change the other person (or their behavior), we're just changing ours. You've gotten clear changing your people pleasing behavior, that's all. :-) The other person is free to be who she is, as are you.ReplyDelete
I have been the needy friend for long time and I was grateful to those few that stuck it out. It was an episode of neediness that lasted a long time.ReplyDelete
But I do agree that some people are professionals when it comes to getting more than they give. I have found it isn't personal this is just how they have learned to survive in life.
Some people you only hear from them when they need something and luckily you have caller id.
I use that TIRE EXAMPLE on myself daily...ReplyDelete
