Feeling better ( a bit anyhow)

The clouds are lifting.  I am learning the word NO when it comes to my children.  One of the hardest things I have ever done in my life. I however, am feeling much better, as it my bank account.  I feel hurt when the only time the phone rings is when one child is not calling to see how I am feeling, but to tell me their bill itinerary.  I know. I  am sounding harsh.  Yes, he does call on occasion to see how I am.  But the other 90% of the time it is because he is in financial distress.
