Words

"Speaking of the butterflies you're feeling, I'd love to catch them all." I hear you all right. "You'll never be afraid again, you know I mean what I say." Ok, I'll buy it. "You deserve all the happiness in the world, and I will stand firm in making it happen." Sure thing. Trouble is, you have to prove to me what you say, words are only words, even though they make me smile, they are weightless at this point in my life, I have been let down too many times.

New Place

I am adjusting to my new surroundings all right I suppose, but have ups and downs and mood issues and sometimes I just think I'm plain going crazy. I have not really slept well for several months, even before I left and once in the new place, it took a small adjustment period before I could sleep through an entire night.

So Here We Are

I left. I had all I could take, and I left. I got a townhouse inside city limits, and so far, other than unheard of mishaps I really do like it. It will be more homey once I get all of my things from Steve's house, but I'm there, and adjusting to life alone. Again.

Thank Goodness Its Monday

Friday I worked an hour past and went home to Dad and Steve and 7 others, cooked supper for the masses and spent the rest of the evening outside with Dad.

I suppose we sat up and talked until well past midnight, and I enjoyed every minute of it. Until Saturday morning when I slept two hours later than I intended.

My sister and I put on a shindig for mom's 65th birthday. We had quite the turnout.

After the birthday party Saturday evening I went home completely exhausted and ankles swollen, only to cook again only this time for 16 more people, and kept the grandkids. Sunday morning I set my alarm EARLY and Dad and I got up and drank coffee, watched the horses and he was off to southern Arkansas. I miss him already.
