Well That One Certainly Knocked Me on My Ass

Things are starting to return to normal around here. The cherubs are all back in school, I’m working regularly, we are riding bikes to school again and yoga’s back on tonight. Next week I will take myself to the movies, (hopefully something decent will come out.) I’m anxious to get back to some long put...

Gustav Aftermath

I will update, but for now all I can say is that it was bad, really bad, so bad that over half Baton Rouge is still without power. Until then: I am up and running and watching Ike closely. We won’t even get into work.

Right Now

Right now my heart is shredding in my chest. In time, I will understand that this too shall pass and then some other shit will start up. But right now I can’t focus on that, the pain is too intense. It is becoming clearer and clearer that it is no longer a question of if...

    Hey, you are way too hard on yourself. Things get to be too much for everyone sometimes. What makes you think you were the special one who would never get overwhelmed. Give yourself a couple of days to process. You’re probably just freaking out cuz of all the freaking electricity in the air from Gustav. You’re like a cat.

    I got pop tarts! You just come out here and get one, and a hug while you are at it. We all have days like this, sometimes more than others. I have been feeling pretty overwhelmed lately myself. Thank goodness there were poptarts on my isle or else you wouldn’t have been the only one crying on isle 4. Take care girl!

    Holy shit! Thanks everyone for all the really sweet comments and stuff, both in and out of this here intraweb. I’m now rolling in pop tarts and other sweets, both eatable and literary.

    Woah…you guys start school early back there.

Dad

I’m having an uber blissful morning on the beach. All the cherubs have abandoned the surf due to an abundance of jelly fish, leaving me alone to the crashing of the waves. I almost feel sorry for the adults left back at the full beach house. Almost. But alone, I am able to indulge in...

    I envy people who have this kind of relationship with their father.

    I am just glad that I do have a good relationship with my father. Cuz, we used to not get along at all.
