We Really Shouldn't Be Doing This....

So I am a waitress. I have quite a few "regulars" having been there for over 6 years now. There is one customer, who has been a almost every day regular since day one. That is right. He has been there nearly every day for 6 years. He is there as often as I am. He always sits with me. He knows my kids by name, Tim, and I his.

I have waited on his father, his wife, his son, his sister in law. He and I chit chat quite a bit as he comes in daily normally when we are not quite so busy any more. I chat with him instead of cleaning up... Shhhh don't tell the boss ;o)

So recently his wife and him started having problems, well he did not really even know they were, she just moved out and filed for divorce. Turns out, she has a boyfriend. Well their son does not like the boyfriend, or the IDEA of his mom having one... So to try to make "dad" look like the bad guy too, she brought up "him and I" As if we were doing something wrong!!!

That same day he told me this, Tim was coming in with the kids to eat dinner. I told "mitch" Oh you better leave... Were going to get caught! HAH! Good stuff. I told him we really should not do this... Him come in and be a customer, me wait on him... It is causing problems for our relationships! :OP How silly can a woman be? Seriously. I have waited on her, she liked me, even made him tip me bigger when she would come and eat!!! She is just being silly and pulling at straws to try to make him out to be the bad guy when he's obviously not. Funny stuff.

On a not so funny note, though. I found out one of my other customers, who comes in with the "Lions Club" is sick. he is in the hospital. I knew that he was, but he is old and I did not figure it was anything major. Today they told me they do not think he will make it, and if he does, his life will not be like it was, he will be homebound. NO more "lioning" for him. It is very sad. It got me to thinking about how many elderly customers I have, and how often times I have no idea what happens to them when they stop coming in. Its hard!

So that's life in Clorieville for the last little while. Nothing major going on. Just being told I am having an affiar and all that. Good thing Tim knows about it and does not mind. HA. Life sure can be funny sometimes.

some days

 The kids are just cute. I know I normally talk about how bratty they are. but today, well today they were just cute. All of them, even Destiny. Believe it or not.  Hannah came down the little car line to get into the van and she was smiling and so happy, and so dang cute. Promise had a friend over part of the day Bailey played mario and Destiny told me my shirt looked like a hobo shirt (it was Tims)  Today was just a good day. not sure what made it that way. the kids mostly got a long, there were a few SHUTUPS tossed out but for the most part it was pretty peaceful. I wish more days, were like today.  I went to Lowe's today to get a shelf thing to put in our laundry room. Its so exciting! TO think a shelf would be nice here, and then think YEAH, I'll put one in. See we can do that, cus we OWN our house! :) Its awesome!  I got a few more seeds today. Sweet baby peppers, zucchini and squash too. Yum. I really hope something grows this year. I am SO sore f...

The pitter patter of little (annoying) feet!

 I remember when my kids were little and innocent and said super cute things. It still happens sometimes, but not nearly as often. They no longer pitter patter, they clomp. Things change, kids grow.  Luckily I still have my little neighbor girl Adriana. She comes over to play with the big kids quite often and is almost always a hoot. From taking her to the "lime berry" to just silly things she says. Tonight was one of those nights.  I have not slept much and wanted a nice relaxing bath... As I am headed in there, Adriana asks me what I am doing... I tell her I am about to take a bath. "can I take one with you?" Uh.... I have  a vision of myself as Micheal Jackson...No baby, you cannot take a bath with me.... So I am in the tub, and after a while Tim came in to bring me towels... So he was in there visiting with me, and Adriana knocked and asked if she could come in... Tim told her no. "Why? Because Clorie is NAKED??? What are YOU doing in there TIM!?" ...

Love the one your with.

 My mom and I were talking and lately her relationship is what I guess we could call complicated. During our conversation she stopped and asked me "Are you happy with Tim?" without hesitation I answered "yes".She told me that she knew he loved me and she was so glad I could be happy.  Later I was thinking about it. I have wondered is he "it" is he the one. How can I be sure, how is anyone ever sure? We have been together for almost 9 years now. Granted we've had our issues, but every night he comes home to me, and every morning he's next to me in bed. He loves me, he provides for me, and I love him and provide for him. Together we are raising four wonderful children.  Do I still get butterflies when he walks though the door? Well, honestly, no. Do I still miss him the moment he walks away... Again no, sometimes I am more than happy to see him leave for the evening and go to work... Does that mean I love him any less than I did when our love was...
