On Pred a week and already have moon face and man am I a CRAB!!!

     HEHEHEHE...maybe the old turd needs a lashing!

Oh yes I have had issues with him multipule times and last year around this time I went off.  I mean off on him and I didn't care(I wasn't on pred either, lol).  He still makes little digs every now and then but he tries to do it when he is in the other room and thinks I can't hear him.  He does it to my husband all the time and he just takes it.  I said as long as he isn't saying anything to me or the kids whatever.  I think he learned I am not playing with him anymore.  But I am so moody I don't know if I will be able to keep my cool.  My husband can put up with it but I will not and I told my father in law that last year. I try to stay away from him so I don't see him or talk to him that much since last year.  I see him when I have to and that is it. 

Anyways, yeah pred is great with my uc but the other side effects are just crazy!!! I told my mom I love it for my uc but nothing else.  It really isn't worth it because I can't stand how moody I get and I am really jittery this time around. I kind of feel sick like my legs are shakey and weak it is weird.  Jittery is the best way to describe it.

I put my foot down a year ago with that.  I seen him at christmas and now I will for my sons birthday party and my family is around so then he always acts like he is a god.  Then I probably won't see or talk to him until Easter. After Easter they have a family picnic the end of June and I will see him then. So, I go months without talking to or seeing him. After June we usually don't see him until Thanksgiving again. lol   I see him now only on holidays, special occations now.  My kids aren't allowed to go over there anymore without mebecause of some issues we had with him.  Yeah my husband lets him walk all over him.  I feel bad for him but he will not do it to me or my kids.  I figure as long as he isn't saying anything to my face or my kids face then go ahead and talk about me and my kids to everyone else and he does.  I hear back the stuff he says and it is horrible but he does it to my sister in law also.  He is just a mean man. I learned to not let him bug me as much any more.  It isn't worth it.  I love my husbands aunt and grandma and extended family so we try to keep the peace for all of their sake.  My husband knows how he is but he just lets him go off all the time and just stands there or goes okay dad whatever.  His dad will swear at him and say mean things about the kids and me and he just says whatever to him.  It is really sad.  I don't have that kind of relationship with my family so I guess it isn't my place to judge him on why he wants someone like that in his life.  But my kids and I will not deal with it and my husband sides with me and doesn't want the kids over there either. Yeah so my husband knows how I feel about that. lol He called my older son fat and said he was naughty and needed to go on a diet last year when he spent the night and my son came home so upset and that is when all hell broke lose.  He also put him in the front seat that time after I told him not to three other times before that.  Well, we got in a big blow out.  So, my son doesn't even go by him after that or want to go to his house.  He is ten he remembers what he said to him.  He also told my son my husband and I and my family are a holes.  Ugh!!! So he has no relationship with my son and my son doesn't want one. My husband and my father in law got in a big fight for that happening and my husband told his dad that our kids aren't allowed over there anymore.  So, my father in law tells all the family members we keep the kids away from him. Whatever. So, my husband will stick up for us but he still won't not talk to his dad. Ugh!!!

I don't know how you do it... I would cut this man off completely but I understand that he is family. I don't live like that anymore where if someone is family, they are forever in my life. If you are a jerk to me, you're no longer family. I know why you try to keep cool but, really, should anyone be respectful of someone like that? Awful. My family is difficult too. I feel like, since you're on pred, you're allowed to be a little less patient. I hope he is on his best behavior.

you'll get through it! and don't worry about the moonface, it'll go away. unlike for me, my face is chubby year round haha
