Wah Wah Wah Wah Wah Wah, Blah Blah Blah, Yada Yada

I wanted to blog about my son's dumb preschool teacher & my teenagers psycho teachers but I am too distracted from the day I had yesterday:

+++I was late taking the kids to school b/c I had to pump gas super slow into my 1988Grand Marquis.

+++My Granny is in the hospital and I am in charge of emailing everyone this side of the Mississippi and got criticized for it...Bite me.

+++Sometimes the people you think are your friends just aren't...someone I trusted threw me under the bus...Where does friendship end and business begin?

+++I was late picking my son up from school...And when I apologized to the teacher, she mentioned charging me $5 for being late...then they tell me how the kids couldn't go outside to play b/c some drunk guy was passed out in the flowers.

+++My stepdaughter threw my house key in my seat which fell down into it and out of site; so, for awhile Will & I were locked out.

+++My son is still on "new-toy-overload" from his birthday party this past weekend and literally goes from one thing to the next like some crazy person...then says he's bored.

+++I only got to see my husband lastnight for about 10 minutes before I was off to the church ~again~ to go to class (I love the class so it was fine really) but if I don't get "alone time" with him soon, he might divorce me.

+++I am like "co-leading" the photo team at church (or whatever my unofficial title is)& needed to get pictures of the class and a certain old lady was all crabby and rude about her being in pictures...just stand there and smile grey-head.

+++Then my husband calls to tell me my kitchen is a disaster area b/c the freezer was leaking everyday and he finally tore it apart so, all our food is in coolers and spread all over the counter tops.

+++Someone basically told me ~again~ that the problem was me and not her...which isn't true but she's not living in reality.

+++Everyone was in bed when I got home from class so I caught up on my blog reading and this one was so sad that I bawled my eyes out until 1:30 am thinking about how ungrateful I've been.

+++I crawled into my sons bed with him and held him and cried, asking for forgiveness for not being the best mom I can be (he wasn't awake b/c it probably would have scared him)

+++I got 5 hours of sleep lastnight and my eyes are totally swollen.

Somedays, life. is. crap.

    I think there should have been way more FOCUS on a drunk guy in the bed of flowers at the church pre school!!!! LOL

Just a Little Cat Pee

My husband and I leave our Song of Solomon marriage class lastnight feeling oh-so-romantic, because that was the topic...and feelin' all warm and fuzzy. I'm thinking: I hope the kids are asleep when we get home (if you know what I mean...). As we walk in the door, our 4 year old comes out with a big "Mawmaw you're HOME!" Apparently, bumpin' and grindin' isn't on the menu AND THEN... I look over and our youngest cat is pissing on the counter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTH?! I know I didn't buy litter at the store yesterday but SERIOUSLY?! ONE DAY LATE in changing the litter?! COME ON!! You see, my husband is very anal about the litter box. He scoops it everyday and changes the litter entirely every week, like clockwork. Well, Walmart was out of the little bags of litter that I normally buy AND with my still- jacked-up shoulder, I can't lift the 40 lb. bags of litter; so, I just didn't buy any...I thought what's the big deal...Brian can get some ...

Day 11 Sitting with Myself 1 of 2. Length: 1 hour

 I own a small, predominantly online handcrafted jewelry business. I have been in business 3 years, 5 months & 2 days - exactly the same amount of time that I've been sober because I am an alcoholic. I'd like to think my success in both of those areas are directly linked. I stay sober by making jewelry. Successfully selling jewelry keeps me from drinking. But what if sales decrease or straight up end? Would I drink again? I drop new jewelry on my website every Friday at 9am est. It is 11:30 and I have zero sales. In all the years in business, that has NEVER happened on a drop day. It's depressing. I've watched sales steadily decline over the past few months, often daydreaming about the what if's and the why's. Is it our declining economy? Is it crappy designs? It is me? Recently it was brought to my attention that I offended and upset one of my long-time, consistently supportive customers. I noticed that she hadn't placed an order in several weeks. I was...

Watch It Burn

I lit the match and set my old life ablaze. I'm scared. I'm angry. I'm unfamiliar. But I did it. I did it for survival - all while screaming "IT HAS *GOT* TO BE BETTER THAN THIS! THERE HAS TO BE MORE TO LIFE THAN THIS!"  Now I feel some confusion because this is a road untraveled. This is a road where you have to drive on the left. I have no experience with this. I'm still scared. I'm still angry but yet, it's different. It's different because life as I knew it is gone. There's been a paradigm shift in my world. I can't go back. I can't unlearn what I know now.  As I meditate I see a version of myself I've never seen before. She is strong, empowered with a powerful and "take no shit" stance. She is emboldened. She doesn't care what other people think; in fact, she isn't even looking at them. Her eyes are closed and she's protected, standing in a barren white, cracked desert. She is wearing white but wrapped in ...
