Dan BerladynI have your wedding pictures if you don't mind me putting them into a folder?
-
Brenda Gartleynot at all and thankyou i sent my daughter a invite to the group nicole gartley
-
Dan BerladynIt's open, she should be automatically added.
-
Brenda Gartleyoh i dont know enuf about this stuff ill let her know though
-
Dan BerladynI meant, she should be automatically added if you invite her. A member, like you has to approve someone.As far as I know she is because the number of members went up by one.
-
Brenda Gartleylol ok thanks ill let brent and eeron know too .
-
Dan BerladynGood.
-
- January 10
-
Brenda Gartleyand as for your writings dan ... write till you are in a place to feel better. you do have the ability to write . you are very gifted in that . when i stopped using drugs and drinking i wish i could have written like you do ...good job. and i always remember you staying with us . you just loved coming over . you always asked when dave or i seen you if you could come stay with us . and i loved having you . hugs to you my cousin
-
Dan BerladynThank you. I would be writing but I was awake until 3 or 4am.
-
Brenda Gartleyi wish you could have come over more .
- January 12
-
Dan BerladynWhat do you think of the writings? The Day goes so fast... It's easier to write when my heart is in it. It reads better and I don't miss the important parts.
-
Brenda Gartleyif it makes you feel better that keep writing . you are a very fluent and from the heart writer . it seems like it just flows out of you. .GOOD JOB dan
-
Dan BerladynWho's it embarrassing to though, just myself or?I guess my writing is not bad for a guy who didn't get past English 11. I should thank you, so thank you forbade compliment. Your pic on here looks good by the way.
-
Brenda Gartleynot your worry if it is embarrassing... it is how you feel . i wish i could write half as good as you do . and i got my grade 12 in 2010
-
Dan BerladynIt's.. More than feelings but that's OK. I'm overwritten, I've written to more than what you see there.
-
Brenda Gartleydanny do what you need to do, for you !!! that is why i had to leave the coast and only looking back now at most of my cousins and feel so blessed that im sort of still part of the family.
-
Dan BerladynYeah, it's not so simple for me. The right thing for me was 20 years ago.
- January 13
-
Dan BerladynIm going to show the house, everything you see is not everthing I have done. I don't have pictures or a log for most things. But uploading these was a start. Its best you don't post in there and its best you keep it to yourself for now. Private messaging me is ok on it.
- January 15
-
Dan BerladynHi, are you free right now?
-
Brenda Gartleysort of ... hi whats up ? im making dinner
-
Dan BerladynI wanted someone to talk to but.. if your busy its ok.
-
Brenda Gartleyi can talk on here as im getting things ready. i have to go to work in an hour . i have 3 hockey boys living here so i need to get them fed before i go to work
-
Dan BerladynI just feeling down, I think I messed up the conference call, it's too personal for me.What do you make of everything i post? I am just curious? Its the truth.
-
Brenda Gartleydan please try not to be so hard on your self. ive been away from the family down there for alot of years and just only now i am piecing things together . i love the writings that you do. and it seems that you have done alot of helping with out any one noticing or giving you credit for it
-
Dan BerladynJim. Thats why. Thank you for at least taking that opinion. Im partly falling into depression.
-
Brenda Gartleyi feel bad for you for all the bull shit that your family has put you through. and i wish when i was on the coast years ago i would have known some of this stuff. i havent got to involved with uncles and aunts but my cousins have always ment the world to medepression is a very hard illness. im still recovering from my own shit that ive had to deal with and its always there. i have to really try to stay above it
-
Dan BerladynI asked my uncles. Pete was good, Ike did nothing said nothing and he's the one who told me to stay here and help them. I talked to Dianne which... no one wants to be involved and then you get into he said she said. This is exactly what Jim wanted if i stayed. For me to have wrecked my life.
-
Dan BerladynOn the other hand they all screwed me up from leaving.I get to leave hurt broken adn jaded.Makes them feel better.They just want me gone, it's all about money.anyways thank you.
-
Brenda Gartleythis is why i keep telling you to do what is best for YOU. and like you said you should have got out 20 years ago but hind sight is a wonderful thing, looking back at it today. MONEY is the root of all evil . it is always about money that fucks people up.
-
Dan BerladynI knew all of this 20 years ago. I am not stupid. I was doing everything I could to buy RRSP's and get in a spot to buy a place. I had to hide that from all of them or they screw me up. After three years Jim found out and laughed at me, he said it was dumb. He took all of my steam away, my pride. I don't remember what I was up to... $14000.. the bank said I was very close, in fact I could have, but I wanted extra for security. I know if I ever stopped I was dead. You have to understand how much they depress me. Then I became lost for a bit, always helping here. No one would but me. Mom encouraged it of course and that led into a childhood dream. Then that's when they'd rub their hands together. I just kept pushing forward. It's hard to explain but.. You just can't succeed around people who take from you emotionally, financially, etc.
-
Dan BerladynI think it was likely the same for dad. They laughed at him.
-
Brenda Gartleyi type slow so bare with me. dan so many times i wanted to belong to the family but just could not wrap my head around what everyone was doing to eachother along the way. im so greatful that you found me on here and we have started a relationship again
-
Dan BerladynYeah, I know you got outcast. I think that was the drugs though, no offense.But maybe it was better? look at me, you have no idea how hard I have worked in my life.People used to tell me I was crazy because I would work so hard.I've had a shitty life that wouldn't have went this way in a better environment.
-
Brenda Gartleyi agree with you
-
Dan BerladynAnyways, thank you. We will see eachother sometime. I am usually better at writing than talking.
-
Brenda Gartleyif i can dan im here for you . and you are more than welcome. ive got 26 years in clean from drugs and dont think for one minute i could ever go back to that way of life . ive learned how to love me and worked very hard to get to where i am today. ive gotten alot of help form who ever i could and im on the right path for me right now and i can actually say now that i am happy . but i have to work at it every day
-
Dan BerladynI know but for me, i have crashed into ashes so many times in this house only to rise back up. It's... there comes a point where you have used up all your lives so to speak.
-
Brenda Gartleyi agree, so dont do ANY more let the others figure it out and you look after you for the first time in years. you do deserve to be happy and have a life no matter who laughs at you or belittles you . you are a man that deserves to have a life also. dont ever forget that dan. you too can be happy and do deserve that
-
Dan BerladynThank you. I am going to write, Facebook might kick me off. They deleted yesterdays post regarding mom and I can't see why. I'm too tired to comprehend what I wrote wrong.I know, but for work and for my own self, I needed at 20 years old to not be taken anymore. Anyways thank you.
-
Brenda Gartleybe careful with what you write. you are right they might kick you off and i dont think you want that your a welcome . thankyou dan for trusting me to talk with me
-
Dan BerladynThank you.
-
Brenda Gartleyhugs to you
-
Dan Berladynhugs back at you. thank you.
- January 16
-
1/16, 6:25pmDan BerladynI'm so self centered right now I think all of these things are directed at me. These things being your prayer.
-
Brenda Gartleydan not at all directed to you . i belong to a prayer chain of about 8500 people . its for who ever needs a prayer to help them out .please believe me i will not ever go behind your back . if i have something to say i will say it to you and will NEVER do so publicly ,
-
1/16, 6:29pmDan BerladynWell it did bring some thoughts. .
-
Brenda Gartleyi care so much about you and now that we have reconnected after all these years i am not about to point fingers and do what others have done to you . that is not how i am at all danof coarse it will if you are interested or willing to think on things,anyones post can do thati will never undermind you dan never! or knowingly do something to hurt you in any way
-
Dan BerladynOK!!! I was talking to Mark and I didn't see your messages. Thank you.I honestly don't know if my posting is in the best interests of everyone, including myself, but it's the only thing I can do. I'm scared I said too much about mom, but with yesterday...Someone's helping her.Hope you had a good dinner, I went to whitespace, made me feel better but I can't afford it. I don't have a kitchen and I can't really cook anyways. Glad to know you can.
-
Brenda Gartleyi had to run to store for dog food. so whats up with someone helping your mom. i dont understand? im just asking . please just be careful what you write openly on facebook. you can always pm me if you want to rant . as for cooking oma taught me alot . my mom was always not close with me . so i didnt do anything with her . just my oma and i were real close.
-
1/16, 7:45pmDan BerladynYes, I need to be careful at the same time I have to get my story out there so that my family doesn't go around saying everything is my fault. That's what they do to dad and he's not here to defend himself. I know I might be saying too much, but just about everything I am saying is already in someone's publically trusted hands. Do you my mom said yesterday that she's not asking for $28,000 from me just yet? When I say someone is helping her, I mean Jim and/or Lisa. They are the reason everything went the way it did anyways.
-
1/16, 7:46pmDan BerladynThey are the reason I fell into debt. The reason I slide right out of control five years ago again, but this time right off the edge. they are going to turn me into a scapegoat unless I make it so they can't do so. In the end, no matter what, we all are losing.Greed knows no bounds.
-
Brenda Gartleyoh ok i get it now dan it is really sad that shit happens . yes greed knows no bounds. i agree. its just sad that others have to drag others down with them to make them feel better i totally understand
-
1/16, 7:49pmDan BerladynThat 28,000, they are basically saying they want rent from when they made me suicidal.
-
Brenda Gartleywhat did the judge say
-
1/16, 7:50pmDan BerladynMost people that work with me know, many friends know, they don't understand the story.That was a twenty minute phone conversation where I didn't say the things I should have.It decides my imediate fate.I'm probably nuking myself as much as them, but at least people can understand why. I know myself inside and I know what happens if I don't do this. Unfortunately, I also know what may happen if I do do it.
-
Brenda Gartleydan again im going to say ... you have to do what is best for you and start looking after you. not the rest of them .. just you . you are an amazing passionate man and you also deserve to be happy and free of drama and bullshit.maybe this is the beginning of something great for you , and being away from the family dynamics that have hurt and used you so back , might be the best thing for you
-
1/16, 7:58pmDan BerladynI don't think I will be free of it. I probably have to live with them taking everything from me that I could have to have had a productive and happy life. As it is, I am probably entered the unrecoverable position already. That was even my word to an Officer in September when reporting a threatening behaviour by my brother in law who I haven't seen in over five years.
-
Brenda Gartleymaybe you could think about going and talking with someone about where you stand legally . some one that can help you not come out as you might
-
1/16, 8:09pmDan BerladynI don;t have time or energy. I have tried talking to so many lawyers over the years that when friends gave me numbers in November, I learned I had already spoken to them. I did want to speak to one through December, but like many he had no interest. It's not a case most want. I did have everything ready to go including a similar case file and a lawyer in Richmond but I started prepparing to just leave in the first week of November. I shredded everything. Even mortgage approvals to do with this house from 14 years ago. I have some smart retired friends, they gave their opinions. I feel like I know even though I may not. I will talk to FraserHealth Monday.
-
1/16, 8:09pmDan BerladynThey might have something, I don't know.
-
Brenda Gartleythats a good start and im proud of you for standing up to what is right for you . fraser health might be able to help you out with this stuff . it is very draining . i know it is .
-
Dan BerladynThank you.
-
Brenda Gartleyanytime cousin .. im so happy we have connected . thankyou for finding and friending me
-
Dan BerladynNo thank you, the pleasure is all mine.
- January 19
-
Brenda Gartleyhi there how did your meeting go with fraser health ? how are you doing ? and NO i will not unfriend you
-
Dan BerladynI told them what I told you last night. I am suppose to see a case worker next week, they offered me welfare, $400 which is peanuts sorry. Hard to explain properly. Then I come home to the cops who are asking about tenancy, the thing that will sink me. they've encouraged me to have assistance for housing. They have to follow the law, I have to prove I am not a tenant or I am fucked, they win. I fucked that up, the tenant bit in the 20minute phone call.
-
Dan BerladynSomeonefrom the group phoned the cops, even though I said I have already told the cops this.I should have known that but I just wanted to get my point across.The hardest thing is writing 10 different places and then not writing as good as I could and potentionally writings things that harm me.How do I prove I am not a tenant now?
-
Brenda Gartleyso now what do you have to do dan?i dont understand what you mean ... not a tenant?
-
Dan BerladynI need support and to remember what I am suppose to do. chatting like this helps but at the same time it hinders.I am going to do what I was suppose to do last night.I have to be alone now, thanks.,.. I need to write.
-
Brenda Gartleyok talk to you soon please be careful what you write no more cops
-
1/19, 6:06pmDan BerladynI'd just rather be honest with them and with everyone else. In the very least I am making them pay for their greed. I just don't want to waste city resources and be known for BS.Making them pay is my siblings. They put me down since I was young you know. I guess I was bullied.
-
Brenda Gartleyhugs to you dan i really hope this shit all works out for you.. i really do
-
1/19, 6:09pmDan BerladynIf anything, Jim can wear his past.Thank you.
- January 24
-
Dan Berladynhi, just wondering if your still reading. well, and how your doing too.
-
Brenda Gartleyyes a bit i have just been nusy with work and my hockey boys.. they have won the last 3 games in a row. end of feb they start playoffs .
-
Dan BerladynI don't know how you parents do it. I have a friend with young kids in hocky too.hockey.I let you do what you need, just the message was enough for me. You probably want to relax a bit if you have the time.
-
Brenda Gartleywe have 3 hockey billets stating with us . 2 from calgary and 1 from kansas. so we go to their home games . . my son brent was in hockey for 9 years here in grand forks but i wouldnt trade that time for anything . we all love the game . have a good night im off to bed . work at 5 am
-
Dan BerladynI know what that's like, or I at least I used to. Hope you enjoy your day.Thank you Brenda.
- February 6
-
Dan BerladynMy apologies
-
Brenda Gartleyits all good have fun with it no apologies for anything
-
Dan BerladynPerfect, love you. :)
- February 7
-
Brenda Gartleyi did it danny . if you leave group please please please stay in touch and if i have encourage you in any way it was NEVER to cause you harm ... please believe me when i say that . im so sorry if ive done anything to harm you . love you
-
Dan BerladynYou've done nothing wrong Brenda. I'm in traffic and I'm on my phone. I don't know how to explain my position. I feel bad for saying that stuff but it's all true.
-
Brenda Gartleynever say sorry for how you feel and what is true . i do understand what you have been saying ... drive safe
-
Dan BerladynIssued Ike for help at 16, 17... Stay home and look after mom. 22 or so he looks at me like he doesn't believe me. Same for years. 30 years... Ask for help continually.... looks at me sideways...4 years ago. Begging for help looks down his nose while Elanor complians of her leg. At the funeral... Oh life's tough you know... A couple flow days ago they are scared to.pick.me up from the hospital I might want a place to.live... Finally I meet them.. Oh this is the first I heard of it they say.. Dad was right.
-
Dan BerladynThank you for adding pics. Everyone should.
-
Brenda Gartleyi have to find mine they must be at my daughters ... i dont have them
-
Dan BerladynYou don't want to know where I just came from or the topic. But people have debts and if I climb back up... Some are getting paid.
-
Brenda Gartleyhugs to you dan you deserve so many of them
-
Dan BerladynThank you. Thank you Brenda I mean that. I do and I don't. I don't because I should have paid more. But then it's not that simple. You can't when your getting shafted, have no support and your going crazy. I don't because I should have been smart enough to.just punch Jim out when I was a teenager. I don't because I always gave him too much power over me. Same with mom. I don't know what I am saying. I just know I could have stood stronger instead of being so sensitive. But then even at that, when you are cut and wounded when you are young it's easy for everyone to keep picking at the scab. Do you know what I mean? I knew to get out of that house, bit there was always one card too weak to go. Not always the same card but... Other people would have handled it differently. That doesn't mean better, just differently.
-
Dan BerladynThe one thing I don't understand is how they feel good about taking and watching someone suffer. how does that.make them better? I'll never understand that. I'm being an attention who're or I feel like one. But thank you Brenda.If you have to lie to tell your story then your wrong right? They lied to the police and to the RTB.The RTB actually stated this was a very sad case. But that can be applied either way to either party.I hope you have a good night. Keep the interest going by posting pics in that section. It's good for everyone.
-
Brenda Gartleyi know the pics are a good thing . and i wish i could be there to give you a huge hug like i used to do for you . lying is not good . and maybe one day you will be able to stand up for what you think is right and be heard . thanks danny for trusting me . you can always text my phone too 250 443 5120 . i normally dont get to answer it as it is broken but i can text no problem . have a good night and thankyou again
-
Dan BerladynNo thank you. If I walk from there with nothing, that's what I get. Nothing. I'll only have one option when she dies. That's it. If fate doesn't fuck me over or if anything even left, I'll make it hard for them for as long as I can.Doesn't matter though, the three of them will plot to out manouver the one of me. Anyways thank KS for the support. Without it for the last three months I'd be in real trouble.
-
Brenda Gartleyi do understand what you are going through i have been in same situation with my brother and dads stuff but i do not want his stuff . that story for a different day . it was just never offered and thats the part that fucking pisses me off
-
Dan BerladynWell.. lol.. We are talking about your brother. :-)It's the principle thoughDid your dad even have much? I dont think he did. He took my dad's clothes. I suppose some keepsakes and again the principle. The others have everything of value from that house and they.never put a penny in. They only worked to dilute my work.Sad.Someone had to lose as always in that family. Then theres Lisa, it's all about family... I wish I wrote all that was said over the years. Sad. But honestly I can't be friends with people who are friends with them. It does not work.My mom treated tour dad like shit by the way.I'm a bad guy for saying all this.Rick disowned my mom too in the end, he vowed never to return to that house.
-
Brenda Gartleyyes it is brother and my mom and yes its just principle . yes it is sad . thats why i left 27 years ago , im so fucking tired of being the black sheep and blaimed for everything that they did ... me and you are not that different . there is so much that you and your sibling do not know of what happened . maybe thats why your mom wouldnt have much to do with my dad
-
Brenda Gartleyno you are not the bad guy at all ... trust me you are not
-
Dan BerladynYour dad fell. And one your down people don't... They blame you and you never recover.
-
Dan BerladynFunny how I knew all this stuff yet I couldn't bring myself to accept it. I knew iteven at a young age. It's like a slow car wreck you can't stop. Turn left, turn right. They hit you no matter what. I'd be about ready to leave if they I stayed the course set out last year this time. It's impossible.
-
Dan BerladynNaturally too.. Who wants to admit defeat? If I did that years ago and left she'd have lost it.Jim's a loser. His primary motive is keeping it fair. No one gets the house. No one benefits. Lol. But he didn't care if they lost everything.
-
Brenda Gartleymaybe that would have been the best thing if she would have lost the house ... then no one would have had anything and yes that is sad
-
Dan BerladynIll never fully recover from this. It never had to be this way.And who would be paying for her now? who would want to help her? It might have killed her. That's her whole world.They'd be fighting over who has to deal.with her. I guess I am a n idiot I'm like a deer caught in headlights. I couldn't avoid it.
-
Brenda Gartleyyou are not an idiot dont say that
-
Dan BerladynI was doing everything I could at a young age with a steeper climb than all of them and he laughed, not good enough. He's such a fucking loser.
-
Dan BerladynNo one helped him as he stole.and cheated everything in site. you should have heard him when he lucked out with that dealership job... I would javebeen so screwed if I didn't get that job. I'd never have anything... Two weeks later... I'm better than everyone. Just pulls his own chain.
-
Dan BerladynI have to stop thinking about them. I almost don't know how to pull out of this.Finances are the biggest problem.I meant to.say something about your mom..I didn't realize she was against you too.But it makes sense. Not against you but undermining you.
-
Brenda Gartleywhen people judge you ... you nor i will ever be good enough . it took me a long time and i had to learn to pick myself up and dust myself off and smile at the world and not let them get the best of me. i will never let my mom and brother know when im not doing good . i will not give them the chance to kick me when im down . now they dont know how and why im doing so good with my life
-
Dan BerladynYeas that's the exact reason I can't know the family if I walk out losing. They thrive on it. Aunt Ann and Diane tell them everything.Who knows who else. Your mom looks at me sideways.
-
Brenda Gartleyive become a very strong independant woman and i will stay this way forever. it was hard wok but i did it . .. no she always loved you ... your were such a fun cute kid everyone loved you
-
Dan BerladynShe loved gossiping about me, but she never cared about my feelings. Oh... Wait, your mom you mean? I dont remember much of her other than... Her smiles I guess. I don't think.we.interacted much.Leaving and rebuilding my life...For me to.fwel.good it haste be self determination, not thrown out. For me to succeed it's finances. I'm blown out of the water. Immediately over 2000 before I even pay for food and a roof. Bankruptcy actually causes more problems. It's hard to explain.
-
Brenda Gartleyread what i just shared it is what we are talking about .. ... danny this is exactly how i live now ... that just came up on my wall
-
Dan Berladyn1.8 years to go and I'd have been debt free except for the truck which is just a work expense.
-
Brenda Gartleytime for a new plan and a new start , only you can do what is best for you . but do it for you dan
-
Dan BerladynLetting go? Yeah a lot easier when you still have legs to walk.
-
Dan BerladynYes I mean no offence, but this is not the first time. It's too hard for others to understand. I have to look after my work needs, it's like a noose that limits options. If I don't look after them my income cripples as does my enjoyment of work itself. if I had a gun o would have blown my brains out at least 20 times by now. It's not easy without the family bulletin, at that and it's impossible.
-
Dan BerladynI have good reason to come back up, I hope I do.
-
Dan BerladynIt's just... One step at a time. Btw, people encourage me to.talk to my mother. I think that's a bad idea without a witness. I hope they encourage her to talk to me. She always knew who to.reach out to when she needed something. I'll let you go with that. Have a good night.
-
Brenda Gartleyyou too
- February 11
-
Dan BerladynThanks Brenda... Im not interested in playing games online. I'm not sure if you sent that or its automatic bit I got a game request. The timing was funny, I was thinking of you.
- February 12
-
Dan BerladynHi Brenda, I'm working on moving my stuff over to onyxblack.myqnapcloud.com/WordPress/ At the moment I want to keep it to myself. I don't know what any of this does to me legally and its all a works in progress. I wish I did it for the last twenty years and then just "released it".
OynxBlackOne Step at a time...onyxblack.myqnapcloud.com -
Brenda Gartleyi wont say a word but thanks for sharing this with me
-
2/12, 4:13pmDan BerladynThanks for reading it. The only reason I don't want it shared is legally they build their case around me, I do the work for them. And two, it help thems navigate the future. Nevermind I am giving out information freely to anyone who wants to start messing with me. I don't understand what's wrong with the rest of this family. I understand Gail and Diane going through a lot. Maybe that's all there really is. The rest are too young or not on Facebook.
-
2/12, 4:14pmDan BerladynIm happy with you though,,, I could give you a big hug! :)
-
Brenda Gartleyaww dan me too
- February 12
-
Brenda Gartleyi just got everyone fed and took a shower . came back on here and read your last comment . who can read your stuff when you post where you did?
-
2/12, 7:53pmDan BerladynThe entire WORLD.
-
Brenda Gartleyoh ok i wasnt sure if just me or everyone
-
2/12, 7:55pmDan BerladynIts everyone... its adouble edged sword. I can password it all but it just makes things difficult.
-
Brenda Gartleyoh i couldnt find the pics i was looking for so nicole will try to get some from my moms i hope this weekend .
-
2/12, 7:59pmDan BerladynI hope you do. Why do the others not respond? I think my siblings all have communications with most of them. I know some are busy and some are going through things, but my position in life is deteriorating daily and I will be unrecoverable likely. I'm thinking Jim is moving this to the next level and those were papers he was carrying. I couldn't even leave here if I wanted to, he's not just hurting me, he's hurting her. Likely it's going to kill her. You know honestly, I bet you he shortened dad's life for money. Dad was really hurt when he left just a few months before he passed. I don't want court, but in some ways, bring it on I may as well go down fighting. It'll likely kill me.
-
2/12, 8:01pmDan BerladynBy the way, I know you have your own life, but if you read damaging words, please let me know. I have no time for edits or even really to think properly as I try to get everything out. I'm probably hurting myself.Thank you Brenda, thank you just for being here. I;m sorry it's not over happier things.
-
Brenda Gartleyone day it will be happier dan
-
Dan BerladynOnly if I win.All cards against me and I have no friends. The same way this started out. Only now she doesn't need me.
-
Brenda Gartleywell dan you always have one friend / cousin in the world and thats me
-
2/12, 8:12pmDan BerladynYes, I seem to and you are much appreciated. :) I was actually wondering if I had to run for the hills, if there was a life near you somewhere. Last year I was looking for a woman far away to start over with, but I didn't have these financial and legal burdens. :) Just health burdens.
-
Brenda Gartleythere is always something somewhere . its very hard here as there is zero work . ive been at same job for 5 years now and wont leave cause i do get my paycheck of min wage but i am working.
-
2/12, 8:18pmDan BerladynYeah... that's what I thought about where you are. There is never something somewhere because you can never get back what is took from you. You have no idea. I should be happy in my own home right now, I knew that 20 years ago, that I needed that to live and succeed. I am dead anywhere else.
-
2/12, 8:18pmDan BerladynHard to explain my personal history.
-
2/12, 8:21pmDan BerladynI needed slow and simple growth, impossible in a sphere of takers. I needed stability and care. It used to hurt like watching my friends get support, not help but just basic support from their families. Mine was the opposite taking support and destroying your ability to build your life. You don't understand the side effects unless you go through it.
-
Brenda Gartleyi know what you have said to me i have gone through and still do with my mom and brother . ive said this before . and i will always pay for what ive done or not done in their eyes no matter what i do , so yes i do understand being on the whipping post all my life ,
-
2/12, 8:27pmDan BerladynI don't understand your brother. He's not.. well, he shouldn't put down others. You seem more than fine to me. Your brother is ok too though, at least in my eyes. I suppose you never recover, neither will I. The sad thing with me is that they wanted to make me this way. It wasn't something I did. I just served their needs. Right into childhood... My siblings got if they pinned things on me, mom resented me because I liked dad. None of that is my fault.
-
Brenda Gartleyno dan it is not your fault . kids are the meanest people in the world sometimes.
-
2/12, 8:34pmDan BerladynWhat about mothers? And my siblings are no longer kids, yet they are still mean.I wish I could hit "play" from the things I have seen, then people would understand. Not only that, but "play" from my own mind when I'd work like a dog. Most couldn't and wouldn't raise their shirt sleeves like I did.
-
Brenda Gartleythats right dan they wouldnt because they had someone to do everything for them ... and yes mothers too...
-
2/12, 8:48pmDan BerladynBetween you and me, I hate looking at facebook posts of pictures with words stating all this crap for mothers. It's not my view. But even in all that or all of this, I still have concern for my mother, she is my mother after all.The good thing is, I now have concern for you. :) You've earned it. :)
-
Brenda Gartleywhy thankyou ..... that means the world to me / you mean the world to me too dan you always have . yes s she is your mother . my mother is the same . i do love her
-
2/12, 8:51pmDan BerladynI have a hard time saying that, I prefer to say I feel for her. I'm done with this page for now, you may read if you like. http://onyxblack.myqnapcloud.com/WordPress/2016/02/12/rtb-decision/
-

-
Brenda Gartleywhen we meet up il tell you what ever i remember
-
Dan BerladynWow, your dad looks really good! In light of my words.. I'm not sure I should comment in there.You should be proud, he was one good looking guy!
-
Brenda Gartleyya he was lol
-
Dan BerladynIm proud of him for that.
-
Brenda Gartleythis set is for you dan
-
Dan BerladynYour dad doesn't get enough praise.
-
Brenda Gartleyyou ok with the pics
-
Dan BerladynYes, they tear me up. I've never seen them before.Thank you.And it's everyone's section, not mine.You should let everyone know that.You're an Administrator. :)You look really good.
-
Brenda Gartleyif you do not want your mom or sibling isn i cant let them in eitheryou made this for everyone , this is all for you dan
-
Dan BerladynHave they asked? I don't want them in here but that's not the way it should work.
-
Brenda Gartleyno they have not asked and i will not do that to you .
-
Dan BerladynIt should be open to all family and all family should participate, but maybe ts the definition of family that needs addressing. These people are not family to me and my extended family is befriending them so..OkThank you.
-
Brenda Gartleyi will honor your word no worries
-
Dan BerladynThank you. I feel it should be everyone's decision but.. I can't control what others do or what they think. I am just glad someone else is adding pics.
-
Brenda Gartleyill get some more tomorrow night
-
Dan BerladynThank you. I have a whole new appreciation for you. My mother should too, you were her flower girl.Thank you Brenda. I hope you have a good night.
- February 13
-
Brenda Gartleyi hope you are ok with the pics of your dad . i think ive only got them with jim
-
Dan BerladynI am, it actually hurt me seeing dad enjoy little Jim so much. Jim really hurt him.
-
Brenda Gartleythis is all i got and he was the first born so thats most of the pics
-
Dan BerladynIts all good. They are pics I've never seen, if they are available post them.
-
Brenda Gartleyok i wanted to make sure you were ok
-
Dan BerladynWell, I'm fine... honestly a lot of these hurt, but I'm glad you posted them.
-
Brenda Gartleysorry not ment to hurt you just enjoy your dad
-
Dan BerladynI know... that's what hurts... but I'm glad to see these, we don't have pictures of him young.
-
Brenda Gartleyhe lived with us and when your mom and dad got married they still lived with us for a while
-
Dan BerladynYes, I heard that bit from others. I think your dad played a big role in dad winning mom over.In fact, I am pretty sure I have in all upstairs in my mind how it played out.I look at that pic you posted, Alex, Helen, Lena and Frank... The really old one, I look at my dad I swear I know where his mind is. he never changed.
-
Brenda Gartleyno he didnt just got bigger lol
-
Dan Berladynlol yes. Maybe in a bit I'll show you a picture of him near the end, I'm not sure if you had seen him.I'm going to run out, I'll be right back.
-
-
Brenda Gartleywow thankyou
-
Dan BerladynIt hurts me to see that picture too. He told me his eyes got better in the end, he didn't need his glasses, his hair grew back in too. Amazing eh?
-
Brenda Gartleyyes
-
Brenda Gartleyi will add some more tomorrow ... sorry this is starting to push some buttons that i never knew could get pushed, but ive got a few more hope you are enjoying them
-
Dan BerladynOh for sure! My biggest hope is that others will contribute too.
-
Brenda Gartleythats why the tears . i do miss him sometimes ... i just wish one day everyone would know all the truth no matter how much it hurts , one day the whole truth needs to be said about a lot , sorry just hurts sometimes that i got robbed of a dad cause of greed
-
Dan BerladynAnd so did I.Write it Brenda. Then one day you can share it. I knew to write for almost 25 years.Now a lot is gone.
-
Brenda Gartleydan alot of people will be hurt and i dont want to do that i just wish for once the berladyn family would just tell the truth of all the shit that all the kids ? cousins dont know about their parent . all the shit that i know and rick knew and we were older and that really sucks. ... sorry for the rant not meant to you
-
Dan BerladynI should have spent more time with Rick. Out of this house, I was closest to him.I shouldn't say this, but I was first to dig in the dirt and shovel a load onto him.He left here for Edmonton early, he explained all that to me.His dad and everything.As for the Brentwood story... he didn't say much.
-
Brenda Gartleyrick spent alot of time here and we talked alot of all the shit that happened through the years another one who had to get away from the berladyn clan to survive lol
-
Dan BerladynRick was... a good guy in nature.
-
Brenda Gartleyyes he was we used to party when i was a teenager
-
Dan BerladynWell, there's another side to that story too. The one involving his dady..dad, I didn;t meant to type dady.Your partying, Rick's business back then... was the reason he left.Ricks words to me. Nothing to do with you, just Rick's... business dealings.
-
Brenda Gartleyyes you are correct me and him did some partying together . his business dealing where why he left .
-
Dan BerladynIn fact, I have even have all that in emails, the night he shared was the same time I was in counselling. I actually wrote down his words and I don't want his kids to ever see them.I'm more like his dad and my dad in those manners. What people do they do, I do't partake.
-
Brenda Gartleyprobably a good idea on his kids not needing to know
-
Dan BerladynNo especially the one closest to me.I guess I should destroy that, I just got them in November. I had to pay for them.
-
Brenda Gartleywell im off to the hockey game again . and you are very right dan we talk tomorrow . just keep them private so nobody gets themhugs to you and thanks for listening me rant lol
-
Dan BerladynAnytime for you@! Enjoy the game. :)
- February 14
-
Dan BerladynNellie was.. John's wife, no that's Anne.. So Nellie is a direct Aunt, like Rose?I know all this stuff, but always forget because I never knew them.
-
Brenda Gartleyyes nellie was the sister nellie ann and rose
-
Dan BerladynThank you.
-
Dan BerladynI don't know if you talk to your mom, but I did invite her. Maybe my name is mud there too. They probably told her I was crazy, they told everyone that at her place. Anyways, once your brother is in here I'll get him to invite her.
-
Brenda Gartleyi hope she willi think noicole is there and will get some pics for me and get mom on here im hoping
-
Dan BerladynYeah, I hope so too. She'll have a lot to add.
-
Brenda Gartleydo i have to add this secret person
-
Dan BerladynEither one of us... it's peter... is he asking?
-
Brenda Gartleywho is this louise personno i just didnt know but thats what i though
-
Dan BerladynThat's Rick's ex wife, she's in the photo's she's in and she's harmless... You don't remember her?
-
Brenda Gartleyyes but not the last name \
-
Dan Berladynahh. ok.. Rick divorced her about five years ago or so.Married a long time, Carrie's mom.Adopted mom.I kind of like how the black sheep have this group! :)I won't stop someone from wanting to admin though... it should be open to all.
-
Brenda Gartleyits all good i just wasnt sure about her i know her ,we havent talked in years though and the black sheep thing is cute too
- February 17
-
Brenda Gartleylove you dan and always keep in touch if shit goes sideways get me a number and i can always call you ,,, i hope you are ok
-
Dan Berladyn6048377574 is my cell but it is going sidewaysYou have no idea the finances, the needs etc. No one believe me either.
-
Brenda Gartleyi will add it tomorrow my phone is at work ... i forgot it
-
Dan BerladynI'm I'm the hospital can't chat not allowed to use thisNot allowed to chat.
-
Brenda Gartleylove you can i call hospital ???public number?
-
Dan Berladyn6045204569
-
Brenda Gartleyi believe you danill call you tomorrow after work
-
Dan BerladynOK, I hope to be out oh here by then but who knows. Don't the other cousins say anything over all this? You are the only one?I'm waiting for them to take the phone so...
-
Dan BerladynThey said this was my fault for making the Facebook posts? Umm. Actually some of them a cousin suggested I say. I don't get it. I'm the actual vision here and everyone keeps hurting me more. They are actually going to drive me I to suicide with they stupid healthier system. Even the cops.. Must go.
-
Brenda Gartleydan i had said to write if it helps you and make you feel better but i also said to watch what you write on facebook . i NEVER ment to hurt you in any way. so if you are talking about me this is what i meant. journaling does help .
- February 18
-
Brenda Gartleyhow are you doinmg?doing where are you
-
Dan BerladynWell, it's cold in here but I have a computer and a roof over my head. Thank god for friends.I'm at a friends, I just had to phone into the police and let them know where I am.
-
Brenda Gartleyhospital? your not there
-
Dan BerladynNo, I was released and arrested upon release.Then released from being arrested.The Department is working on Jim, Mike and Lisa's side. The officer, the mental health liason says she doesn't care that they financially destroyed me, pushed me into suicide, then destroyed me all over again almost killing me.They care that I caused "mischeif" , in other words, they just want to fuck me so I am gone. Nice eh?
-
Brenda Gartleyfor fuck sacks why cant anyone get their shit together and know what to do lol ..so you are safe
-
Dan BerladynCause no one cares enough...I said to one cop today I am probably wiped out and will end up living on the street. He shrugged his shoulders and said, yeah, maybe...I don't understand how this is possible. Why am I the bad guy here? By the way, I think the mental health team works with the cops, they want me gone so the mental health helps them get what they need.
-
Brenda Gartleyfor fuck sakes dan that is shitty for you
-
Dan BerladynYeah, that's only part of the shittyness.. the other part will be the bankrupcty and everything that comes with it.I will never recover.A friend was with me telling the health people not to put me in the hospital as that would be the worst thing for me.Nope, they knew better... throw me in the hospital for three days so I lose another three days pay... as it is, I could BARELY get by not missing that time, they didn't care. I don't them you'll make me suicidal, they didn't care. They knew "better" for me.The system is really fucked up. I told everyone let me keep working and keep me as an outpatient, nope..They knew better... I am sure they work hand in hand with the police to do as the police wish.The police likely just want me gone.
-
Brenda Gartleyi did a bankrupcy and it took me 10 years to get back on my feet but i did and didnt look back at the rest
-
Dan BerladynSolves there problem, just like it solved my siblings problem and my mothers if I killed myself two years ago.Yes, that you.For me itll be much different, trust me.Everyone tells me this isn't bad and that's not bad, but they are not seeing where I am coming from.I will likely never recover,But Jim wins, so it's all ok...I think he fits the definition of psychopath.
-
Brenda Gartleyare you out of the basement at your moms now for good
-
Dan BerladynI don't know, that's whats not clear to me. If I am, I have to get as much as I can out now. If I am not it needs to stay there.They are destroying any chance of life for me and they don't care.Even the police don't care.Uncle Ike doesn't care/.I told Mark to go fuck himself because he told me to leave after he told me to fight. I can't leave, I have no money.On top of that, anywwhere I go cripples my income.They have never been family to me, it's always... hehehe.. lets take from Danny, all my life.No one cares.Dad did, but look where he is.
-
Brenda Gartleywell dan i care and i have no money to help you but i do care
-
Dan BerladynI don't want someone else money though, I want mine. I want what I worked for.Unfortunately, others want it too.Why make your own, when you can take someone else's? That's the thinking.A good part of me always felt their gred killed dad.
-
Brenda Gartleyyes i know a couple more people like that too
-
Dan Berladyngreed.They fucking sick.If I remind them that they laughed at mom and dad losing everything, they just say "You can't prove it" hahaWhy? All this does is hurt everyone.All they did was hurt the house and the means to keep it. They financially knocked me out, then they try to throw me out because I can't pay mom.They are fucking sick.The officer that deals with me says I don't care about any of that.. oh, I think you have a "nice" family.. Yes, nice to you you dumb cunt. Sorry to swear but it's true. They are nice to her... I don't understand how people live with themselves.So now I need a lawyer, legal aid.
-
Brenda Gartleyyes get legal aid at least they will help you
-
Dan BerladynIm staying in a travel trailer, god it's cold in here. But at least it's better than government homes or something elseTomorrow.I do that tomorrow.Thank you Brenda. Just so you know, do not contact any of my family members on my behalf. I will get charged.
-
Brenda Gartleyi would NEVER do that to you
-
Dan BerladynJust letting you know.
-
Brenda Gartleythey are them you and me are us . never think i will do that to you
-
Dan BerladynFunny, I don't talk to any of them and they had to make that a condition. I also can't post about them I don't think. I am not allowed to communicate, even indirectly.My facebook posts tonight may be too much, I don't know.
-
Brenda Gartleydan do not talk about them at all use your face book to communicate and enjoy the pics and family you share the pics with .. dont include the rest of them
-
Dan BerladynTHank you Brenda, I need to keep doing something I need to be doing here, although I almost don't know what that is. I think everyone, including the cops are just trying to drive me out. Then their problems are all solved. Who cares if I kill myself.Ok
-
Brenda Gartleyi do
-
Dan BerladynI will let you go though, try to enjoy your night.
-
Brenda Gartleyyou too danny love you and hugs to you
-
Dan BerladynThank you, love you too.I appreciate the thoughts and the chats Brenda.
-
Brenda Gartleyim very happy about that so do i dan im getting the pics from nicole so ill have more tomorrow to post
-
2/18, 8:50pmDan BerladynGood! Thank you for posting pics.
- February 21
-
Dan BerladynThank you Brenda. I'm up and down. But I'm OK right now, I am however over-whelmed. This isn't right or fair in my eyes but I'm not going to complain about it.
-
Brenda Gartleyim happy that you are ok . overwhelmed well that will come and go ... one day at a time dan and happy to hear you have heat lol
-
Dan Berladynlol, me too. The overwhelmed bit though, this is a snowball I cannot control. Finances are going to lead to huge problems for me. Lack of stability and home are going to bring major psychological problems. My mind needs certain order and stability to work right. Those cops... they don't care. I'm seeing a Psychologist, but I think he reports to a case worker who likely speaks to the cops. So they... may only be helping me get screwed instead of helping me come to a healthy resolve. I don't know. The hospital staff was much kinder the second time around. I feel bad for telling that one doctor he's crazier than I am. I just had to go work and they wouldn't let me.
-
Brenda Gartleyi just got this post and i think
-
Dan BerladynYou think which?
-
Brenda Gartleyoh shit wrong button lol i thought of you and of where i came from so i will send it to you ... i mean it in a positive and loving way . it made sense to what ive been though
-
Dan BerladynOk
-
Brenda Gartleyi just shared it but no names as i dont like to do somethings like that
-
Dan BerladynI saw it. It's ice if that's true Brenda but from my side of the fence what people don't see... I hope you are proven right, but there's a whole aspect people do not see. I don't even know how to explain it, this has already been killing me for years and years... It's not a matter of strength to me, it's a matter of how many live's are left in the cat. How many times a ship can be patched. Sometimes I think people say things like that because it makes them feel better. I'm not saying that of you at all so please don't even offended.
-
Dan BerladynIts like the cop the othernight, I like him, but he's like you can just start over... If he is saying that stuff to me then he doesn't know me at all. I'm a certain way and all of this was so deeply important for a reason. Anyways, thank you. I appreciate your care.By the way, if I am found guilty I think that will be a failure on my part to have communicated the facts in court. I have a hard enough time showing a Psychologist, let alone a judge.I'm gonna run out for something, have a good day. Oh.. I it's my dad, he leads knew what I needed. I keep thinking of him.Dad wasn't able to give, or even define it at times, but he knew.I was going to ask you about yours but then I'm scared I may stir emotions. Hope you have a good night.
-
Brenda Gartleyhave good evening we are going to hockey awards soonask anything you want
-
Dan BerladynGood. I can see you really enjoying that.The hockey awards.
-
Brenda Gartleythey start play offs tues its just for the hockey team here
-
Dan BerladynI was going to ask you on he relationship between you and your dad, but it's gone, the point I mean. Everyone's different anyways.So what level is that?My friends have their kids in.... Well, I'm not a hockey buff, it'll go over my head anyways.I have to run out, thanks for the messages.
- February 23
-
Dan BerladynHi are you around?
-
Brenda Gartleyhi how are you tonight?
-
Dan BerladynI'm good in the mind, but not good in overall health. How are you? Would you have time for a call?
-
Brenda Gartleyi have to go back to work for couple hours and get paper work done . so i dont have tim e
-
Dan BerladynOK. No big deal.
-
Brenda Gartleyfor a call tonight cant talk on phone at work but i can tx sorry .
-
Dan BerladynI'm glad I couldn't go to uncle ikes. I can't know anyone who's friends with my immediate family. I just told your brother that on the phone.
-
Dan BerladynI came back from the psychologists office. They don't want him seeing me as I am not mentally ill. You know that's a double edged sword. The illness would have absolved me of what's the courts are going to do. It would have absolved me of the police screwing over for the benefit of my family who's always screwed me over.
-
Dan BerladynI told the Psychologist that I will likely kill myself at some point down the road. it's just the chain of events that I foresee. It's not a matter of being weak or anything I can just see how everything plays out. I've had too much taken out of me too many times. In some ways that last rebuild of my life was my last chance. People don't get it.
-
Brenda Gartleyi thought yoou were going to legal aid ... they can get you another dr to see to help your case if that is the route you are still going to take
-
Dan BerladynI don't have the resources to stay afloat for that. I'm already sunk.
-
Brenda Gartleylegal aid is freegot to go ill check this later when i get home hugs dan i truely hope things start going your way very soon
-
Dan BerladynI don't have the resources to stay alive, function and keep working. I've been through this cycle of getting my feet knocked out too many times. I've been through more emotional extremes than most people I know. I've been strained with depressions more than most people I know. I won't be able to take what's coming. I was trying to set up for leaving, it's not a simple process for me. I am in the worst shape I have ever been in financially. Nothing is as simple for me as it seems to everyone else.
-
Dan BerladynMost people who give advice and form opinions take a lot for granted.The cops fucked me. They worked in favour of my family and they've been fucking me since I was five.Dad died young do you know why?They didn't love him.They only cared about getting.
-
Brenda Gartleythat may be very true dan but your dad also did some things that others have and had a problem with and i think that is why he drank so much cause he hurt some people and didnt know how to fix itgot to get to work hugs dan
-
Dan BerladynYou should explain yourself on that. What my dad did or is suppose to have done. Everyone tellse I don't know this and I don't know that. Then they treat me.like an idiot. I've seen things I don't think any of them have seen. I'm also smart enough to compute so let me know what you referring to. I have ideas but I don't want to assume.
-
Dan BerladynThat's what others I find do. They assume. So please let me know what it is you are referring to. I've heard lots of stories. I pieced together peoples beliefs here and there, but no one has actually said it. In my immediate family, I think I knew dad differently than any of them. Much different. Maybe I'll give you a simple option. A. B. Or C. I won't be mad at you.
-
Dan BerladynA. Took money B. Sexually cheated C. Other.
-
Dan BerladynI know my mother well and I know the things she complained of. It came out through 40 years of living with her. In my view she stopped supporting him when the finances became a problem. Nothing else. Their love stopped when he couldn't make bills. I remember the history and I remember when they did and didn't show love.
-
Dan BerladynNo reply. I hope you'll have time for one. Try to enjoy work. It's good for us.
-
Brenda Gartleyhi sorry just a quick hello and dan there was alot of money he did take . me and dave got kicked out of that house in langley because and i was 6 months pregnant with nicole . your dad and ike were the only ones who got paid . my dad always said that he had to look after your dad. . so we went with out . dave worked 6 months with no pay . frank ripped the timecards up and said that no time cards no pay. he was the accountant and only ike and frank could sign the checks. ike never went without either. . then my dad got mad when dave quit working for them . . dan there is so much that was done . i worked there with ike frank and dad for monthes, no pay but your mom and dad came to the shop bragging how much money they spent in the states on food and clothing for you guys and dave and i got nothing. . those are the times that you came to stay with us . you were my sunshine cause you were not like them you were such a happy fun little guy and loved to play with brent when he was so young . you loved the park and just play with not a worry in the world. i always remember saying to dave that i hope brent is as happy as you were at out place. now i say some of this with no intention of hurting you at all. frank was your dad and i think he did what he was able to do but could not keep everyone happy
-
Brenda Gartleydad frank cancelled the certified checks for the guys in the states for the 2 trucks that they stold. my dad spent 10 , 11 years fighting not to go to jail and did end up going.1 1/2 years in states. my dad would not let me give the cancelled checks to the lawyer. your dad knew a lady at the bank and they figured it out. my dad covered franks ass and dealt with it. he went to jail for him. . this is why i think frank drank. he was having a hard time living with the shit that happened
-
Dan BerladynYou haven't hurt me. I just have to comprehend it and check it against what I know. I completely believe you on Ike. I think he does nothing for no one. Dad, I have to process it.
-
Brenda Gartleyi really didnt want to start all this here . i would have loved to just sit and talk with you in person
-
Dan BerladynNo your doing fine.I'm OK with hearing this story. My impression of dad's drinking is trying to keep up with the pressures of the house. I believe your dad helped my dad.A always believed that.
-
Brenda Gartleyyou guys were not told alot.. mrs reinie gave 80,000 bail for my dad for 1 year. then she pulled it and thats when my mom put up her townhouse and frank and marg got the money back. dan it was cash she put up.
-
Dan BerladynI know frank told Alex he'd kill him if my grandmother did not.get her money back.You have to understand my grandmother was... A completely innocent venerable person. It was good of her to do that, that took trust on her part. She was a nice lady. I hope you don't think bad of her. It was likely all she had.Can I ask you somethings on Dave? Was he a hard worker? Why did you guys split? I guess this played a role?
-
Brenda Gartleymy brother and my dad ended up not paying my mom back after putting a morgage against her debt free place so she had to sell it and move again. . pay their debt with brendon and dad and even frank got some of that money . see dan you are not the only one who is bitter.. they suckered her in 2 time . the second time was when oma died . ... i understand more than you think i do . i have alot of hurt and anger and sometimes im so fucked up and frustrated
-
Brenda Gartleydave was a hard worked 300% . franz taught dave for the first 2 years or so but frank wouldnt pay franz so franz quit working at ames.
-
Dan BerladynSee...Jim chastises me with hatred telling me am dumb and all this stuff. Dad's not a nice guy etc. But Jim never tells me anything. Mom too... Always kept secrets.Dad...I have to process it and see if it fits.
-
Brenda Gartleywe split because i quit the drugs and drinking and he did not, so me and the kids moved here to grand forks and he moved here a year later. we tried for about 5 years and i love him to the moon and back just not as a married couple. his wife and i are very close and they are looking at moving here because he is very sick
-
Dan BerladynUnderstand I'm always treated as not good enough to be told. Then bad for not knowing. Bu the way, Jim's not a nice person either and I think mom was highly demanding on dad. She's bitter because she left someone to marry him. She was promised a lifestyle and for that, she married for money... Not love. Then I tried making up and even replacing the dad in many ways. Everyone laughed me. Then I was fucked. Can't get strong enough to go can't get what I need to stay.
-
Brenda Gartleyi neeed to get the last of my paper work done and get home to bed ... i have to be back at work for 5 am im real glad we had this bit of a talk . dan i do understand alot. and fucking secrets kill people . it kills the heart of the innocent and people have NO RIGHT to do that to others
-
Brenda Gartleyi think you are very right .
-
Dan BerladynThank you Brenda I unfriendly most of the family. I.couldnt do you and I'm.having a hard time unfriendimg gail.Have a good.nihht. Thank you for telling me what you did. I have to.process it. It'll take a while.

2/24, 9:57pmDan BerladynWell Brenda, I was thinking of you today, everytime I think of you I think of staying with you years ago. I'm glad you told me what you did last night. Little pieces of information all build the puzzle. I still think dad drank from the financial pressures, the demands from home, stress and emotional stress. Once he reached a certain stage he was done, he couldn't stop drinking. He cried to me, I knew him inside in many ways. I am sorry he did what he did to Dave and Franz. I'm not casting doubt on that, I think your the first person that doesn't piss me off in talking about dad's faults. Mark didn't piss me off either, but I'm not sure Mark comprehends the noose of being liable for a company, four snot nosed kids and a demanding wife, plus a heavy mortgage. I think my dad screwed up, but I don't think it's entirely his fault. I think your dad screwed up too. I never understood why he left your mom, or was that the other way around? I don't want to bring up the stories
-
2/24, 10:10pmDan BerladynIf we were to just talk about my dad only, I think I understand what happened to him. I just can't type everything out. As for your dad, I think he was gifted with gab, a sense of adventure and he was a bit of a risk taker. Qualities that allowed him to start Brentwood, but those same Qualities likely caused him to lose it too. Maybe one day we can talk in person. I always liked hearing your dad's voice. Reassuring hearing all of them talk. I wish in some ways I could shoot the $%^ with them now. I am little more aware of life and a greater than I did when I was younger.
-
2/24, 10:14pmDan BerladynI don't want anyone to know, but I was in the hospital again tonight. This time they let me out. Different hospital and in some ways better staff, not better staff, but there was nothing, no sense of bias and they spent time talking to me. Although I was bit tired and not overly interested in opening up today. Fourteen psychiatrists now. I'm embarrassed for the waste of resources. Either PMPD reads my posts and messages, Faceook notified them, or someone in the family called.
-
Dan BerladynHey I'm laying in bed and I'm thinking of you. I should ha e dine my timesheets, I haven't done them. I'm sorry you werent given what we were. I've kind of analyzed it as to why, but I wanted to say sorry to you. If it's any consolidation I think I received the least of everyone. Second and third hand clothes, I was shafted on and many many my brothers got. I guess that's why we are so different. They complained about Fair and then took from me. Dad tried to help but he ended up just buying me off with the cash in his pocket. I actually understood it at that young age, but it.. It's hard to explain. Dad and I were alike, both shafted. I'll tell you of the game of life one day. I saw everyone's locked position there. Dad and I came in last, we both hurt, no one else even noticed. Dad and I were bound for eachother. Anyways I'm sorry you hurt for us.
-
Dan BerladynIn my early twenties, falling into the trap, I part conceded or justified that I was paying my debts back to my parents. I guess you always look for ways to coax your losses. From everything you said Jim still bugs me. He did tell me Franz was not paid, or bits of what you did. But I am not sure Jim ever connected his demands on dad and then the things dad did to deliver them. Life was all about toys to those two. We were better than everyone cause we had more toys. All about getting. I remember I must have been five when I was at a friends house. My first friend. I knew right there In his backyard my brothers were wrong. It's strange the things I'd pick up on. But I knew my family was not right. It hit me like a flash. I'd have a good childhood with toys but Id have it rough later in life. A family valueing the wrong things. Anyways your probably sleeping. Ijust wanted to say sorry you went without for us. At some point our needs over took yours. I know why but these are enough messages.

Brenda Gartleywow dan thankyou so much and then this is not your responsability so please dont take it on .. thankyou . you are the FIRST one to even try to understand what happened . ... my mom and dad split up because he wanted to be with shirley . . when he was with her he was with other women . if they had money he would use his gift of talk and sweetness and the poor woman would give money and her heart and then he bailed .. dan he did this to MANY woman . ...thousand of dollars . fucking sick as far as im concerned but he did know how to play the game. my father taught me how to lie steal and cheat . never any love . he was always too busy to spend time with me . he ruined my brother . thats a different story . then my son brent . thats another story too . thats for in person. no one knows all the truth of what they all did . they took alot of secrets to the grave with them
-
Brenda Gartleybe back in a bit
-
Dan BerladynYes, thats fits with my view too. I have to be careful, he is your dad and I feel understand and have a forgiveness toward him. I'm not taking the responsibility o completely but it is a sons duty to correct the mistakes of his father. Blame is a hard thing to lay on others even though I do it. Everyone is a product of their genes and environment. My brothers I can find fault with easily because they chose to hurt me for gain. I actually feel bad everytime I take a shot back, or even when I just speak truths. My dad. Your dad. We'll talk sometime.
-
Brenda Gartleyi would love that
-
Dan BerladynMe too.
- February 25
-
Dan BerladynHey, I remembered something I wanted to share. Dad said others lied. I believe dad. If you have time what do you know about tge gas station story? For me, it's just more for fun. I know of two brothers stating the same story, but only one showed emotional pain. If you don't know it doesn't matter, I'm just curious on what you know. Im just analyzing dynamics of people no longer here. Thanks for being a friend Brenda.
- February 26
-
Dan BerladynHey. I have others things sometimes I write things and I refine my views after. These messages are likely read so I'm just embarrassing myself and my father. Hopefully one day we can talk. I'm surprised you never responded buts it's OK. Enjoy your weekend.
- February 27
-
Brenda Gartleyi respond when im back on here . i do not use cell phone for this stuff. im on my laptop . lol so maybe that is why the long wait in responding. and i was at work till late the other night and did not get back on here . hugs dan
-
Dan BerladynBrenda missed a video chat with you.
-
Dan BerladynIt's OK, your life doesn't revolve around me. I just get caught up in hopping, or expecting a reply. I should do that. I have to laugh at myself here, I'm typing and consciously thinking these words will be read, studied and interpreted. I can't explain.At one time I was good at choosing words and timing very well, completely cognitive of all the dynamics around me. Study that you fucker. (not you Brenda).
-
Brenda Gartleyya i got that lol dan
-
Dan BerladynTypos there's typos above too. Phones are the words to try to write on. I stopped and visited the Coquitlam RCMP today. They sent three cars and six officers here on Wednesday. They left a message to contact them. So that was my intent, to comply. I also wanted to show them I am no threat to their members. An 80 year old friend reminded me of a few things the last time I seen him. I literally have no choice. I lost my ability to shower where I am staying today. Things just keep getting worse and more complicated.
-
-
Dan BerladynI didn't mean to thumb that up. I'm reading on psychology, I'm curious do you have email address? I like to anchor emails by CC ing them. It's up to you.
-
Brenda Gartleymy email does not work . im just on here till i can get it sorted out . im not good on this shit at all . i still write letters and send them through the post office lol
-
Dan BerladynThat's good though. I like old school. I just could never write properly that way. I make a typo and I start the whole letter over again. Well, I used to do that. It's so much easier type when I can edit as I go. But admit, I don't spend the time I should editing and letting things sit.
-
Dan BerladynFor some reason, I always have to send an email and have it done to realize something I stated a little bit wrong. Naturally, it's too late by then. Trying to fix creates confusion, but I like it better than speaking.It's easier, as there's less two way communication. Body language, tone, pitch, judgements etc. It's two ways for me because I will often note my audience and try to process how they are perceiving the spoken words.
-
Brenda Gartleyi do like writting texting alot better than in person sometimes... like you stated . too much to see when with someone ... at least this is very non-judgemental
-
Dan BerladynYes. I haven't amazement in the past. I've written letters where the reader never met me. We he finally did, he was visibly shaking. Words can have a powerful effect all on their own. I wish I could dial myself in because court... I fear for myself and what I am going to do in there.
-
Dan BerladynFreaking typos... lol sorry, I'm too lazy to rewrite it.
-
Brenda Gartleyi have to get dinner ready and then off to game so il be on here off and on till 630
-
Dan BerladynOh, I didn't know you were still paying attention. I read your post last night and remembered you were busy with hockey.Thanks for the messages.
-
Brenda Gartleywhat happened to you and the berladyn group it says you are not part of the group ? just asking
-
Dan BerladynI left after posting that message. Identify know what's on my file at the RCMP but there's something there from the look on the woman's face.I'm fucked you need to understand that. I can't plot a course. I do not have what I need.
-
Dan BerladynIt's downhill everyday because I can't function. I lost the ability to shower today because my friends son is half nuts. I'm lucky I could use someone else shower but, I have To go in people's homes for work. There are so many tiny details that people do not comprehend. Oh he's working he'll be fine. That's like saying Brentwood hasorders for trailers with a half a shop and have the tools. PMPD pushed me out of that house and theyve completely fucked me in doing so. At least I could sell things to make up the loss of cash flow or crank out my taxes for a refund to make up the losses. I cant do anything to fix the crash thats coming.
- February 28
-
Dan BerladynHi are you? I noticed your like. You're like the lone supporter of someone who.cant defend himself but who's pretty adamant about being right only to end up doing wrong. I'm interested to see what the charges state exactly. I'll try to find that this week.
-
Brenda Gartleyive been the same way dan for years . im my only supporter too ... other than my kids
-
Dan BerladynI can't understand this extended family. I can't explain my problems, but to me they are so freaking obvious. That's a suicide note in that Berladyn section you understand that right? Why the fuck don't they? Doesn't matter, they had all those years to help when it's three vs one, you saw dad's picture. You know mom never worked, if you know her she's actually highly dependent on having people help her,but she likes to.beliwve she's so independent and successful. I just can't believe nobody stood up for me. Gail said, I think theres other things going on with you. Sorry Gail, this is what happens to someone in my shoes. Jim knew it, he laughed at me and said no one helps, everyone works against you and you go crazy never recovering. That was near the beginning in adulthood. I can't help it, I have a bad habit of saying fuck you, I'll prove you wrong or die trying. I will die because I can't prove this in court, the history is there. I'll likely lock up, blank out, and get screwed by a prosecutor because I write too much. It all boils down to.jow I look politically. I can't even shower or properly function. I'm living in a trailer with no facilities. No money because I took too hard of a hit prior to this. Do you understand why I said I cant be friends with them all? I wonder if I shouldn't just post all my emails to Facebook. But even,as much as I write I still don't state enough history for people to get it. People don't even understand why I can't just rent an apartment and move on. Some.completely get it, others are clueless. A major part of that is my income source, never mind personality, traits, interests, etc.
-
Dan BerladynEverytime I look at me, it like a domino effect. I look at how I got here, each problem. As I go.back through to the roots. Over and over again it's the family that doesn't care about anyone but themselves. Mom cared but she'd get scared around the others... What can I do?
-
Dan BerladynI want to leave this alone and let you have a good night,but I don't think I'll even qualify for legal aid. They'll saying too much moneyed they won't actually represent me anyways. Not in court. I have no money I am just barely able to work after what you can consider being part time for six months or longer. Stress really kills.
-
Dan BerladynHave a good night. I hope your enjoying a game or something.
-
Brenda Gartleyi have no idea of what you are talking about a suicide note ?????. i have not seen that
-
Dan BerladynThe post should be there, that's why the RCMP sent three cars and six Officers to my friends house. Eventually they got me at work. My third trip to the hospital.Different hospital, different doctors and a untainted medical/psychological review. They released me as they understood they only do more ha holding me.More harm I should say.The first word is Goodbye in the post. Tania saw it. She thought it was sad. It's just easier being cut off from those who don't help.I have Angina, do you know what that is? My heart.
-
Brenda Gartleyyes i know what angina is . i was a paramedic for 13 yearsi dont see the post you are talking about
-
Dan BerladynFunny. I wonder if Facebook removed it. Can you let me in for a minute, into that section?lol. I don't know how to find the group and you don't know how to add me.
-
Brenda Gartleyi will try and yes the post is there
-
Dan BerladynThat's fine. I just wanted to.know.it was there.
-
Brenda Gartleyyou are in now i found itit wasnt there and now it is
-
Dan BerladynId rather keep my word and stay out. Tough on Gail about Diane.I'm going to.copy.it
-
Brenda Gartleyi really dont know what to say to you dan other that i really hope you truely get closure and recognition for all that you have done and i hope all of this shit works out for you in some way. i dont understand why they cant at least acknowledge what all you have done .. reading that post make my very sad that life is so hard that you would have to even publicly write about how hurt and alone you are because of your family . anyways dan ive got to get to bed 5 am comes quickly when i dont sleep well . . will talk tomorrow or next day night and love you
-
Dan BerladynYes itw late. Later than I thought. Have a good.night and a good.day tomorrow.
-
Brenda Gartleyhugs
-
Dan BerladynI smell, you don't want to get to close to me. I should burned gas and drove to the rec centre for a shower. I have to stand next to a manager tomorrow. lol. It just compounds.Have a good day for me.
-
Brenda Gartleylol
- March 1
-
Dan BerladynI had to re-read your story on dad, Alex and those trucks. I don't understand how your dad went to jail for mine. I honestly can't see my father intentionally making a deal with someone and stolen trucks. I don't even see your father doing it in desperation. Your dad was smarter than that. From the things I knew, your dad found that deal, they bought them unaware, and tge FBI stung them, not caring that they didn't know. They were Canadian. Later they dug up that Americans property and found all kinds of things. Maybe they would have bought parts in desperation, like the crate that "falls off a delivery truck" scenario, but I can't see either of them knowingly buying stolen trucks. My dad wouldn't be so stupid, he wouldn't stand for it. My dad told me he told your dad not to deal with those people, but they've gone to the grave like you said. Would that be why your dad wouldn't show the lawyer the cancelled checks? My dad was president? I think your right about Franz and Dave, my dad probably hurt inside for doing that. I know he hurt a lot from home. They spent too much, four kids, and he was the youngest trying to keep up with others like Ike who had his house paid off. Your dad.. Why he did that to your mom... She's and you were good to forgive him. Too much partying and not looking after business.
-
Dan BerladynI don't know, maybe your dad got conned or perhaps he was desperate. But I still don't see him being that stupid to buy a couple of stolen trucks. Dad said the FBI treated them like a mob because of the Cadillacs. In all honesty... I wonder if my dad and your dad took too much pride in being Presidents. It takes a certain character type like Pete to successfully do it. You have to stay on top of the bottom line.
-
Dan BerladynAnd you have to pay your men. I think probably did that out of drunken arrogance after losing and losing and losing.... He likely would have felt bad later at some point.Hence your theory on his drinking.I'll give you a break. But your dad taking care of my dad, Theres a story behind that.
-
Dan BerladynWas Brentwood fairly successful when they built that big Port Kells shop? I have a feeling they rode that high and had a hard time adjusting when the markets changed.They probably had big ideas of doing well, then the bottom fell out. A 40 man shop is a big shop. Lots of waste if you don't keep your eye out there. Dad told me stories of dealing with the men. Guys throwing grinders at eachother, fighting. Etc.
-
Dan BerladynSee I don't know what kind of financial position your dad was in, likely not very good after losing Brentwood and leaving your mom.But being partnered up with Ike probably would have been a sore spot. His house was paid off, less pressures... It would feel unbalanced.
-
Dan BerladynAs far as your dad taking care of my dad, you have to know the history of baba insisting that when he was young. Of Pete buying him chocolate bars to treat him and I think Alex taking it on through Brentwood. I think your dad made my dad a lot of promises and encouragements including his marrying my mother. I could be wrong on that, but that's how I've seen it. You so know how they met right? Doesn't matter.
-
Dan BerladynI just thought I'd share thoughts as it's not a bad distraction while I consider what's happening to my life. Hope your enjoying your night.
-
Dan BerladynDo you know what would happened to your dad at Brentwood? They drank, that's a given, but they also drank with customers to sell Trailers. That's the way a lot of businesses sold back then, and I bet you there was flirts secretaries as there always is around Presidents of companies. I know of two Berladyns who would have... I dont know of anymore and I don't want to know. But I assume that's what happened in the old days before I was around. I remember that shop when it closed you know. My brother Mike said to look around, I'll never see it again. I stillborn in there every now and then, it's a drywall supplier now. Funny eh?
- March 2
-
Dan BerladynI get insecure sometimes, is there more to this or.... Just wondering why you haven't replied. I saw hockey somewhere on your posts again.
Yep Admin SPolice/LEO/Cop Relatives & Friends -
Brenda Gartleymy daughters friends kid and my boyfriends son ... no worries ... not you i just thought it was a funny dig to them . and dan im so burned out from every day working and dinners and late night games and traveling ... but all worth it . hockey has been great. i took sleeping pill to get some sleep . i only sleep couple hours a night
-
Dan BerladynI can't function with only a few hours sleep. I felt dumb after sending that. Sometimes I see everything as personal, probably because I am taking this situation so personally. Sorry.
-
Brenda Gartleydont go there lol i understand ... i will NEVER do something underhanded to you . if i want to say something to you i will in private not in public dan . you really need to trust me with thatits all good
-
Dan BerladynI do. I just get caught I think in not hearing a reply. It's OK, I'd likely chat lesson life's going better.
-
Brenda Gartleyok okay . i just get real busy right now and the boys are moving into the 2nd set of playoffs so we are at hockey alot more and traveling 3 hours extra a day when they are out of town .
-
Dan BerladynIt's OK, don't feel bad. You didn't do this to me.
-
Brenda Gartleyjust letting you know . us balck sheep need to stick together lol. anyways i need to get upstairs and get to bed . ive started work all week at 445 am and i really need to get some sleep . i start at 10 tomorrow so i get to sleep in a bit hugs dan

-
Dan BerladynDid you get this? I was there today so I hought I'd take a picture. I have dust in my phone so its not overly clear.
Dan Berladyn added a new photo.This is just a picture for a couple of people on my Facebook. They know the history of this building and likely havent seen it in many many years.Dan Berladyn -
Brenda Gartleyold brentwood building ?
-
Dan BerladynYes.
-
Brenda Gartleywow that is a long time ago
-
Dan Berladynlol. I think i only have one memory from it. My last visit, but just saying that I might remember one other time. What year did it close do you know?
-
Brenda Gartleynot sure is this is burnaby
-
Dan BerladynNo, this port Kells. Burnaby was the red barns. Beta Ave.This is the shop they built.
-
Brenda Gartleyoh i was old there once i was dating a guy that worked there
-
Dan BerladynI always assumed 1978 or so this shut down. Maybe 1979. Dad was always saying they could have done well. It hurt him. There was a gas station just around the corner. Pete bought it after another brother found it and talked of the idea of buying it. He did well on that apparently and was a sore spot.
-
Dan BerladynDad said he found it, and Ike said the exact same thing. That Ike found it. I tend to believe dad because he hurt when he said the story.
-
Brenda Gartleyyes there was an issue there ,
-
Dan BerladynI was wondering if your dad said he found it too. That would be funny. Three brothers with all the same story, only different names.
-
Brenda Gartleyyes i was tols that frank and alex wanted it . ike said no he wouldnt help and then pete bought it .
-
Dan BerladynAhh... Makes sense to me. But see, Ike says he found it and wanted to buy it, then Pete bought it. That's why I'm always skeptical with Ike. Stuff like that. He doesn't take risks and he doesn't help, except Mark. Alex and Frank were kind of teammates I think, right back through the seventies and late sixties. I think your dad encouraged mine to pursue and marry my mom. Dad used to take the company cheques into the bank she worked. That's how they met.
-
Dan BerladynThat's the beginnings as I know them.
-
Brenda Gartleyim not sure but i think your right that sound familiar
-
Dan BerladynI'm pretty sure I am. Can't you see your young father taking my baby father under his wing? I think Pete looked after dad too a bit, but who knows. That's them.Being with dad a lot, it screwed me up, but I don't regret it. I'm glad I spent the time with him.
-
Dan BerladynDad was broken, that's what I had for a father. That's were I mean it screwed me up, but I'm thankful for him. He took me a lot of places. I met people. Dad was good. I know he... Business... But he... Well. He didn't have it easy and at times I think they did things they shouldn't have. Like telling all of you about a trip to the states. I've had contractors do that to me. I think they did things like that to build see esteem. Keep mom happy. Give the kids. But I'm not proud to know about Dave and Franz. Casualties of a business not.. working properly.
-
Dan BerladynBy the way. Often when we went to the states it was to visit uncle Morrie and aunt Edna. They would buy us things. Dad would literally cry and moan if I wanted something. Not that it matters, but Jim and Mike got to have money spent on them, because at each equivalent age, dad was in better financial shape for them. So many things that weren't even when Jim states otherwise. All the same he says, bullshit. He had a lot more than i did.
-
Dan BerladynDoesn't matter though. You didn't get much by the sounds of it or maybe you did when you were you. Attention is what matters the most. Love, caring, time.
-
Dan BerladynI don't want to keep going on about this, but Jim and Mike had time with dad while he was still healthy. Dad played with them, setting up toys etc. Me, he was washed out and tired by my time. In some ways I don't blame Jim, dad wasn't there or of the character to instill fairness. Jim chose to make it all about himself. Mike followed. That's a long time ago. But for me it applies today for character development and the issues happening now. That's the last message, promise. :-)
-
Brenda Gartleyi just got back from store and dan i think they all fucked up one way or another ,at least your dad was around and loved you ,,, my dad didnt give a fuck about me at all and was never around, he was always working a nes]w deal,,, which ment someone was going to get fucked . that was my dad.
-
Dan BerladynI didn't want to say it. I don't disagree at all.My dad was never home, to know Hom I had to go with him.Your dad did... I know. I feel for you. On the business part I see him doing the only thing he knows as a father he failed you.
-
Brenda Gartleyno dan he lied stold and cheated who ever came into his life
-
Dan BerladynThe only thing he knew.How do you see my dad? The raw and ugly?I probably shouldn't bring this stuff up anymore. I can't tell if your upset or not.
-
Brenda Gartleyim just sad that they all were so fucking selfish and didnt be men and fathers and thought of us kids sometimeshonestly i seen your dad almost the same way when he tore up daves time cards and said what he did . thats when i knew he was no different then the rest of them sorry dan but that is the truth
-
Dan BerladynWell, I don't think my dad was selfish in nature. Irresponsible, yes. I'm not sure when that started though. After a certain financial stage or not.
-
Brenda Gartleythe money was the root of all of them,i just lost any respect i had after ames for all 3 of the brothers and i never looked back . i walked away
-
Dan BerladynWell, I think the world declined, when they were young things were easy. They had big dreams some success and they lived too high. When it crashed they were probably like junkies... Trying to relive their former high. That's how I see it truly. The women were no different. They all wanted.
-
Dan BerladynElanor and mom would compete, she has this I want that. Shirley, she probably wanted to catch her fish. Your mom, your poor mom.Yeah, well I was too young to see everything you did. I could only see what I saw.
-
Brenda Gartleyya my mom and shirley well dan i loved her more than i did my dad,
-
Dan BerladynMakes sense. I had good memories of herbal I was young when she passed.Seven or so.
-
Brenda Gartleyi hated what he did to her she was the best thing that ever happened to my dad and he used her and beat her to death ... he broke her heart , she gave up and she died
-
Dan BerladynHe beat her?
-
Brenda Gartleyyes choked her and hit her all the time
-
Dan BerladynThat is shameful if that's...Did he hit your mom?
-
Brenda Gartleypushed my mom down alot.anyways dan i must get to bed ,,, im up at 430 am tomorrow . hugs and good talking to you and get some of this shit off my chest ,,, thanks for listening and my dad ruined your dad , just like he did brendon
-
Dan BerladynStress I would imagine. Your dad wasn't a worker. He was a sales guy. A bull shitter.I'm sorry.
-
Brenda Gartleyyes true night dandont sa
-
Dan BerladynMy dad wasn't really a worker either. Don't feel alone.
-
Brenda Gartleyy dont say sorry just listen and ask what ever you want never apoligize for them
-
Dan BerladynHave a good nightThere's parts of them that wasn't bad. Look for them, maybe it'll help the emotions. Sleep well.

Brenda Gartleyhugs

3/4, 8:54pmDan BerladynIs that peanuts?
Loose Items, Purchases for Upstairs. . In roughly the year 2000 I placed a $1200 computer upstairs for my mother. As well as the cable, I paid for her internet. . During 2006-2011, I bought her several different $400 universal remotes to make her TV watching easier. It was also a bit of hobby, what I bought myself, I’d buy for her as well. When I bought my current Stereo, I bought her one too. That was a $1000 plus shipping. They connect to share audio throughout the house. She has $400 worth of speakers on loan to her, those were loaned temporarily and I wanted them back in the future as I was to set her up with suitable replacements. On her death, I expected to get everything back although it would likely all be worthless. . I bought a $300 media player and installed it upstairs for her to use, that’s mine, I hardwired it into a network so she can watch files from her computer on her TV. I ran her computer backups onto a storage device and looked after that for her. I even bought her a $150 set of cordless phones. My PS3 and my PS Vita were left upstairs for my sister’s children to enjoy. I’m sure her new boyfriend enjoyed reprogramming it all. My mother has IKEA file cabinets on loan because I didn’t have the space when I acquired them. When I wanted them back after setting up an office, I was told I couldn’t have them as she needed them. . I bought $1200 worth of Air Cleaners to clean the air in the house as I renovated. Currently there’s a network switch that I likely paid $350 for under the stairs, that’s the second one as I burned out the $1000 one dismantling everything when I went suicidal in 2013/2014. There also should be at least two cartons of work gloves I have been locked away from. There’s more things if I have time to think of them. Like the last $1000 computer I purchased, my mother only paid $300 of it. . Yes, I am a terrible person because I have always known my siblings wanted to “@$#%” me. After all they used to rub their hands and smirk and all I could do is trust my mother when she’d state just give me the check and I’ll look after you. You’re going to get. lol – Do you know how many times I heard that? I don’t care if you think I am dumb for it all, once your in a position, your in a position. . By the way, I never felt that I got all my Wiha pliers back after I was told to hide all my assets, commit fraud and declare bankruptcy. This only includes loose assets placed upstairs, nothing attached to the house. . Oh yeah, the VCR that was mine too. Not to mention all the cables. There was also the $150 Breville Kettle and the $300 Coffee maker. My mother really liked those. This is the REAL reason they've locked out of the upstairs. . I'm sure there's more things I have bought, I can't think of them at the moment.Dan Berladyn - March 7

Dan BerladynWell. I'm off to court soon. Believe me when I say I am getting fucked. Life couldn't have set me up any better. I have in writing emails to that Psychologist as soon as I changed work habits that I wasn't adamant about not doing years before hand. Then he guided me to do something that he'll just about.
-
Dan BerladynThat he'll just lie about, sorry.He guided me to do something I would never do and my sister encouraged it. I wish could write it properly. I'm too stressed.Its all my fault in the end. That's the way it works.As for court today, there's lies, exaggerations and some exaggerated truths. I wish it would be easier be there in that room. I'm scared I'll get decimated. I guess, have no fear right? I shall not fear?
-
Dan BerladynI think I was 23, I.was beautiful day, I was painting the fascia boards thinking about what I wanted in life. I had a good mentor before this and I was completely balanced and happy. I just needed to decide what do with my life. I had my whole life in front of me, I.was knocked off my RRSP plan by Jim and sucker into working on that basement by Mike already by this time. I decided I wanted to be honest, loyal, True, good, noble and to listen to dad and always do the right thing. That's when mom and I became realistic about the future. Anyways now I likely going to look like the opposite. Courtenay always what's real, it's about who proves what.
-
Dan BerladynCourtsi meant to write.I worked really hard in my life, if I just on my feet instead helping mom and dad. If I stayed on the path when I was buying RRSP s and Jim was laughing not good enough, he's better, I would have done well. Never any support, just devaluement.The guy who taught me said if wasn't for bad luck, idea enough luck. I know you create your own luck, but you cant do that around people who put you down.I started life in the hole and they knowingly or not,kettle there. Itching it's just learned behaviour by all. They did it to me in childhood as the weakest and it's just second nature now.I've even had dreams about them knocking me out of the nest and killing me because of greed. I should have wrote that one.You would never laugh at someone doing everything they could to write themselves because it made you feel better inside would you? Right in front of them?
-
Dan BerladynMrs Morris used to tell mom, dad's no good. That was when he went bankrupt. Mom wanted to divorce him and I know back then why she didn't. No one would support her. Dad used to cry my wife doesn't love me. Mrs.Morris, he's no good. I watched her shove her big gaudy ring in mom's face while she was dressed like a freak with too much money.
-
Dan BerladynShe'd be telling mom dad's no good in front of me,and mother would be telling me I'll be just like my fatherWhat does that say?When I wouldn't commit fraud she figured out couldn't pay her, she said "I guess I will give you nothing then".Extortion.
-
Dan BerladynBut I don't completely blame mom either, if the others find out...You know what they'll say. Jim thinks its all a competition, but really it's about survival. There's is competition because he took from me all my life, but at the end of the day it's about not being taken and survival.If didn't have that sideways pull one from all the dynamics, my life would javebeen so.much different, so muxh better.

3/9, 6:56pmDan BerladynHi, no words? I don't want to go on and on and on... I just thought no words seem strange. As does the missing pictures of dad and Napa, but I might be because I left the group there I don't know. Anyways hope your having a good night.
-
Dan BerladynI just wanted to say if it's from my posts, how would anyone else feel in my shoes? My own mother is lying and my siblings are smearing me as much as they can while acting like roses. They are not, they are more dishonest than I.Anyways, if you read this, thanks.
- March 14
-
Dan BerladynOK Brenda. Seriously what's happening? You don't reply to me. Do you know they've lied to the police? Do you know they are throwing me under the bus for their own gain? Why would you not respond to me?
- March 14

-

-
Brenda Gartleywhen is court ... thur?
-
3/14, 4:37pmDan BerladynYes. I hope others don't show up for entertainment, they'll make it worse. So please keep the day to yourself. Just out of curiousity is there nothing new posted in the Berladyn section?
-
Brenda Gartleyno and ive asked for others to post pics ... the ones my mom gave are not for there ... she wants her family put on a usb and gave me none of what i asked for . so next time i go down ill have to get some .

-
Dan BerladynWell, tonight I learned that my brother have been going through my financial records. What do you think about that?Hi by the way, hope you are well.
- March 24
-
Brenda Gartleyhi ...hi sorry i forgot to answer you ,,, how can your brother do that with your personal records?????
-
Dan BerladynThat's them. Cops didn't care. How they do this to my life? You have no idea the position I am in. But thanks for questioning. I appreciate the care.
-
Brenda Gartleyi dont get how they are allowed to do that ??? i cant go through his stuff or yours for that matter so why is it ok for him
-
Dan BerladynBecause they have access to the house. I do not. I was arrested in the hospital, driven home and given that one time to get my belongings out. it's my fault, but whoever phoned the cops on the Facebook Berladyn post brought this about. That's the way these guys are, they'd be flipping through all that information laughing thinking it was funny.
-
Brenda Gartleydo you want me to delete the berladyn thingand if anyone is reading my shit they can fuck right the fuck off ... this is a conversation between me and you dan

- May 27
-
Brenda Gartleytoo much shit to list dan but things are ok here
-
Dan BerladynMy life just got even worse today, much worse, but I expected it. Glad your ok.
-
Brenda Gartleymy other half wanted to kick me out again but the rcmp stopped that lol. if he wants me out he will have to pay me out for the last 12 years we have been together
-
Dan BerladynLucky you didn't have the Port Moody Police, you'd end up dumped in the Psychiatric Ward like I was, then from there watch everything in your life disappear. I'd be homeless and on the street if it want for one person.Don't share that at all. I shouldn't say anything at all until court. Even little bits getting out hurt me.I probably shouldnt talk to anyone. Even you, you might talk to Gain or Dianne and say something not knowing the effect you'll have.Sorry. That's the way it is.I hope things get better there or resolve.At the end of the day though, a ring is just a ring. It's the actual.... Teamwork or lack of it that matters.I hope that makes sense.I wish you weren't having problems. You've had enough in life.

8/3, 3:00pmDan BerladynDo you take to the Ink?
-
Brenda Gartleyoh yes i do i have 3 already and more to comenot that type of stuff
-
Dan BerladynI'm surprised since you found the Scriptures, for me it's all interpretation. I have no desire to be inked.
-
Brenda Gartleyi have loved them since i first seen them ... but i do watch what i put on . im not into devil shit and any thing like that , my last one was dedicated to oma and a grandson that had no chance of living . and i love some of the native stuff . i also have a dream catcher and an eagle
-
Dan BerladynThe most respected tattoo I saw on a girl, was one she had tattoo'ed identical to her dad's which was done at the same time. It was a reference to "Life". It was also, near the Reproduction of Life... anyways... I am not personally interested in them. I like a clean canvas, the way nature intended.
-
Brenda Gartleyhow have you been ?. im 7 days a week working
-
Dan BerladynIt's too hard to explain how I am. You actually have to see it day by day as I explain it. I sure hope you share with no one. It's unsettling when I learn people share while I am verbally trusting that they do not.Even you telling Gail or Dianne, those are words that go back. So insulting even to the people around me now. Absolutely nothing period, not even that you talked to me should go back. Thanks for asking I just can't share.
-
-
Dan BerladynSorry, just the way it is.
-
Brenda Gartleyi understand .
-
Dan BerladynThank you Brenda.
-
Brenda Gartleyno worries if gail asks me if ive spoke to you i will not answer that question period. she seemed concerned thats all . i will say nothing that we have talked .
-
Dan BerladynThank you. I have to stay away from people who think they are helping me, while they hurt me. You understand I almost when to jail for a year just on five polite words alone stating my conviction? People are dumb. I mean no offense.
-
Brenda Gartleysorry danny i did not know.. im 300 miles away and i know nothing . sorry to hear this shit that you have got through
-
Dan BerladynHonestly Brenda, this is the equivalent of Murder, whether you understand it or not. Keep working it's good for you.
-
Brenda Gartleythanks danny
-
Dan BerladynThank you.
