Still coughing and sneezing, but I’m definitely on the up-swing now. I completely spaced on the “day in the life” thingy yesterday because…well, I really didn’t get out of bed for most of the day. I may take the camera with me and record what’s left of our day, though. Who knows! Right now I’m just glad to be able to breathe through both sides of my nose at the same time.
I let my “anniversary” pass by without comment back on “Single Awareness Day”. One year ago on 2/13, I boarded a plane with two kids, two suitcases and a diaper bag packed, and didn’t look back. That date also marks the last time the Ex saw his son. Oh, don’t worry – I’m not “keeping” him from coming to visit, and in fact, have offered to either meet halfway or go to Florida just so they could spend time together. It just hasn’t happened.
My girlyfriend got moved in – the one that was moving from TX to NC. Now that we’re all better, we’ll be driving down to see her in the next few days.
OH! And I nearly forgot – the other anniversary. I emailed Joe’s dad on 2/9 and told him to contact me by yesterday if he didn’t want his parental rights terminated. Guess what happened? That’s right, absolutely not a thing. No email, no phone call, nada. No, I’m really not all that surprised, but I was hoping. And before you ask, the answer is “NO”, I honestly don’t want the man. I just wanted him to get a backbone and acknowledge that it really does take two to tango.
OK, now to plan the rest of my day. We need to:
go to the library
grocery shop
laundry
wash diapers
why are so many men such pricks about kids and relationships?
my kids are my life … they are everything to me. and without my beautiful wife, i wouldn’t have my gorgeous kids!
sorry they’re not taking the responsibility! *kicks them in the nuts*
oh hon, don’t waste your nut-kicking energy. They’re honestly not worth it. Yeah, it draws a major vacuum–but I’d honestly rather deal with “I never knew my father” psychosis than “My father was a butt-reaming asshole” psychosis.
