Not going without a fight

My brother emailed me the other night: I’ve been thinking, I wouldn’t mind having a brother-in-law. Not trying to marry you off. I guess I’d just feel comforted that there would be someone who was your protector… Then I made a post for my Facebook friends: “WTF? Now I need a protector???? I hope it’s just his pain-meds-after-hip-replacement-surgery speaking. I’m glad he’s not the boss of me anymore.”

I got some great comments back:

Becky Bolt:  Most men can’t imagine that women can be fine without them. Hee hee!

Margaret Rosche:  Oh I remember when my dad gave me that speech…before the first marriage and as I became a widow. He never got it.

Valerie Saurer:  That’s sweet. But no, I don’t see you needing a protector. You have Mini-Moo and the big Moose. Not to mention your own really big mojo.

I thought Valerie hit the nail on the head – my own really big mojo.  That was my sentiment exactly.  My own sense of who I am and what I am here to do is the biggest protection I can have.  My own beliefs about my own capabilities, as well as knowing that when I keep myself in alignment, only good and progress comes out of that.

One reason this is especially funny is that when my brother reads this blog post, he will laugh, too.  In real life, he knows me to be completely capable.  He’s already hearing tales back about how he acted on the morphine after his surgery, flirting with all the young nurses!  He’s like me, we don’t take medications or drink, so the slightest dose of anything loops us right out.  I’m sure it was just the pains meds talking.

Now he’ll know to stay away from the keyboard then.

Maybe.
