Thanks. She did. She called to thank me. It was a nice call. But hard. I can't imagine how it must be to have a strained relationship with 2 of your 3 kids. All I know is I feel SOOO lucky!
How is "home?" Looks like the carving party was fun!

Well, winter's not too bad down here in Virginia, but in Mass. it's gonna be pretty bad. Lots and lots of snow. and oh so cold! Just get a really warm coat and some boots and you should be okay.
Good luck with the job search. I've been looking for a job for about 6 months. I've been unemployed for about a month now, and I'm eating away at my savings. teh suck!
sry to hear the crappy situation, job (or lack there of) and all! Hope things get better soon! BTW, thanks for the sweet comment on my set, I appreciate it!
last night the first real rain came.
i went out into the night, the sky was dark, the clouds seemed close enough to grasp.
i stood in the rain and let it wash away the worries and grime of my day.
i felt a surge of real happiness, a fleeting and wonderful experience.
i saved a moth today. it was drowning in the drain of our shower. i turned it over and it climbed onto my hand. i walked it outside and it clung to me with surprising strenght. it resisted leaving the salvation of my finger but eventually it climbed off for freedom. for a moment i felt worthwhile.

my ex keeps calling me drunk off his ass. it depresses the hell out of me. the last time he called he just had to bring up one time when he was drunk and said some really aweful things to me. the kind of things that my drunk mother used... Read More
last days are always hard. that's rough that your ex has been calling you. that's got to be very difficult to deal with. i'm sure this is hard enough without him calling you up and saying things like that. but this is your opportunity for a fresh start. you are right, worrying and fretting accomplishes nothing (this from the master worrier ) so keep your energy positive. remember, you can do anything you set your mind to!
only two weeks till i have to be out of my house.
i was going to be driving across country but my driving mate had a bit of a crisis in her own life so big change in plans. i'm shipping everything, even the car, and flying out with my two kitties. its nerve wracking! but i finally broke-down and asked for help from my... Read More

A couple of days ago my soon to be ex-husband was talking to his sister on the phone. she was crying to him about her partner and the shit he pulls. a lot of it was the same things ryan does. cumpulsive shopping, running up credit bills, keeping us constantly in overdraft. basically creating financial insecurity at every turn. he said seeing it from her...
