My sister got accepted into grad school - masters in education. I am very happy for her, she was nervous she wouldn't get in, but she did and I told her I believed she could do it. I am so proud of my baby...I call her my baby, she calls me her surrogate mom. Weird, yes, but given the circumstances of the past, eh, I can deal. I am just glad she turned out good, just like my brother. Hey, 2 out of 3 kids doing good isn't too bad, right? lol
That one true friend I recently spoke of is going through with the whole RV thing. He got offered a (possible) job in NYC and he put in his letter of intent and is waiting to hear back. He's already purchased an RV and even if he doesn't get the job, he'll be roaming the US. (kinda sounds fun and adventurous - for awhile anyhow) Wonder how long he'll last doing that. Well, good for him too, he's going out there into the great big world and finding himself or something, lol, and getting on with his life. Maybe someday we shall meet again. Funny, I am so used to people leaving my life that I don't give it a second thought. To me, someone leaving is like, 'well it's been nice knowing ya..til we meet again'
WOW, that sounds cold. I need to get me some warm fuzzies.
sorry about that.
I think the black plague has taken up root in our house. Everyone has been sick with one thing after another and 2 days ago I fell and sprained my ankle. Lol, fun stuff. Kinda funny to watch me hobble around.
I think I am going thru some mid life crisis too, cuz these past few days I have had such a F*** it attitude with everyone and I must say, it is actually a good feeling because I was so concentrated on being the people pleaser of the world that I feel like some huge weight has been lifted off me. I know it sounds a bit weird but it's true. Hope the feeling lasts.
I did have a melt down in the grocery store. It was late at night so I thought that not many people would be grocery shopping. I was wrong. I abandoned ship (rather shopping cart) and headed for the nearest exit. By the time I got out to my car, I felt dizzy, lightheaded, disorientated, sweaty and short of breath. Weird how some small incident can trigger such crummy feelings.
I waited a while in the parking lot before I attempted to drive home. And I swear I didn't have my sippy cup of vodka that day! :sarcastic:
Seriously though, it is scary to go through that alone. But I made it home, went to my room and crashed. I couldn't sleep but I closed my eyes in total darkness and silence in my room. Quiet is good.
just wanted to update what's been rattling around in my head.
