3 boys sitting at the picnic table next door drinking their Kool-Aid and eating a cookie.
Toddler #1: Paul!
Me: Yeah?
Toddler #1: I got (2 minutes of rambling) and I got him.
Me: You did?
Toddler #1: Yeah.
Me: Way to go buddy!
Toddler #2: Paul!
Me: Yeah?
Toddler #2: I had (muttering), but now all I got is 2 green ones.
Me: Just three green ones?
Toddler #2: Yeah.
Me: Cool.
Toddler #3: Paul!
Me: *rolling eyes* Yeah?
Toddler #3: .... I love you!
Me: *snicker* Well I love you too.
I guess he didn't have any news and was feeling left out. ha ha. |

Uhmm. Just lost it while this song was on. Not particularly religious any more, but still believe in God and all that good stuff, doing unto others as you'd have done unto you etc. Felt good to let go of some things.

Someone asked me the other day how things were going and my unenthusiastic response was "Well the world is still spinning, so that's a good thing."
I think that pretty much sums up my mood. Life is still getting back to normal. The normal single routine of get up in the morning, go to work, come home have dinner, go to the second job, come home go to bed. Lather, rinse, repeat. Do the laundry when it needs done, do the dishes when they need done and that's pretty much my life.
I won't lie though, it's been nice getting back to vanilla. I feel much more relaxed and much more in control. Am I in a deep, deep hole? Oh yeah...but at least I know where I'm at and I know how to get out of it. I'm not sweating that part.
Am I pissed off about being taken advantage of? Oddly no. I don't like being in a hole, but I'm not really mad at anyone or anything. Perhaps I'm still in shock or perhaps I'm just so relieved to be back on familiar ground that I don't really care where I'm at so long as I know what to do while I'm there.
Do I plan on cutting Bryson off? Not entirely, at least not immediately. I have no intentions of paying big bills for him. I'm under no delusion that he'll be getting out any time soon, and I kinda like that idea. I fully understand that he'll be going away for a number of years at a minimum. I'm also under no delusion that he's going to do anything to turn his life around, but just to be sure I'm going to wait by the side lines for a few minutes to make sure.
Am I putting my life on hold for him? No, not at all. I'm in no shape to try and date someone at the moment. The only visitations I do work around my work schedule and last 10 minutes. It doesn't take me long to hammer out a letter on my lunch break and toss it in the mailbox once a week. In all honesty that's all I plan on doing for him. If he asks me to come to his court date I might take the day off and go, but I doubt that he'll want me there when the time comes.
In all honesty I'll probably "fade away" like he says everyone else does.
As for me...I plan on buckling down. 2009 wasn't intended to be a year of recovery, but it's certainly looking like it's going to work out that way. Come on Spring let's have some sunshine. :) |

Someone just did their taxes. Why does this always bring me joy? *ponders* Oh yes, one year I had to pay so now I have extra taken out of my paycheck just to be safe. That spells a nice refund each year. :)

Ding dong the witch is dead, which old witch, the witch old witch. Ding dong the motherf*ckin' witch is dead!
Ok...not dead, that'd be mean to be so happy over someone dying. But suffice to say he'll be leaving the state prison in a pine box. And I had nothing to do with it. :)

I'd really rather never attend again. Or if I did it'd be a school big enough that I could be out and it not be a big deal. Haha. Yay for group showers in PE. ;) |
