Venting. Sorry no photos here

Just a little vent here. Gotta do that sometimes. I am just tired of all the stupid garbage going on in my life. The one good thing coming from it is that it has made the bond between YKW and I closer. I appreciate that but at such a cost. I am tired of walking on eggshells for kids, family, and just people in general as well. It makes me tired and lord knows that I have enough to be tired about. Pretentious is not what I choose to be and I hate being like that but it does keep the peace for a dime or two. Families should get along better nowadays but people are so territorial and defensive that it makes it nearly impossible. I used to be jealous of other families who always had get togethers and got along so well prima facie.

It must be at some great cost that they were able to accomplish something like that. I grew up in a family that never did any of those things unless someone died. Even then, it was only when grandma died and that was short lived. I can assure you of that. The best thing for all of us to do is to get along a distance. Over the past few months, I have been reminded of that over and over again. Never go forward with good ideas anymore, Michele. Your thought processes are fatally flawed.

Another good note, my kids and I have gotten closer to a degree as a result of the summer coming in. We do things. Mainly because we have to but they are fun. Too bad that YKW cannot join us. He probably wouldn't go to every single thing we do because it is just too damn hot but I don't blame him for that. In it all, I do miss him dearly tho.

It was kind of like it was when we first moved here. (Virginia too!) We never see each other. it will be great when the house is done. That thought process has been years in the making and it is pretty much set in stone. I like looking forward to that. Until then, I have to be pretentious. Yippee. Hipocritical even. I despise that because hippos make my teeth hurt. Ok, feeling a little better. It will get better soon. It always does!
