I'm so happy the new job is working out well for you! Makes a huge difference with good, respectful staff. Great news and you deserve this, you did the right thing!
I know what you mean with regards to health, also weight gain (can't go for a jog!)
I stretch, so hope that counts for something!
Well done on cutting out narc Mum. I know you said your late Dad was the same. Both mine are not dissimilar. Mum was/is a total enabler and we have nothing in common other than she's my mother and she actively encouraged my Dad to thrash me and my brother after he returned from work as kids, having done nothing wrong.
Now they are 75 and 83, their main contacts are faux friends, mostly met on hols. They ignore their 4 grandkids aged 11, 14, 23 & 25. They ignored us when Mr M had surgery and everything else. We tell them nothing, as will be accused of causing stress and upset, so they're on their own. Even a card is pushing it and I agonised over that.
All we want is a healthy quiet life spent with those who we can laugh and feel comfortable with. Stay away from negative energy!
Lots of Love A xxxx
