what is love and why do things change

 Love, to me, is knowing when you come home, you have arms to fall into. Someone who sees your side, and sides with you, but can also point out where your wrong, when you are. Love is being able to tell your deepest darkest things about yourself and knowing they will not go anywhere. To me that is love. I think love is different for everyone. I totally understand falling out of love as well. Falling out of love sucks for the one that you have fallen out of love with, but also for you if you have fallen out of love. Telling someone this is never easy I would think.

 I am still madly in love with my husband. That is not what this blog is about. My husband welcomes me home, loves me when I am ugly, sticks by my side when I am a bitch and holds me when I am upset.

 My mom, has fallen out of love. Quite a while ago I believe. its taken some time, and someone new, to finally convince her that, she needs to come clean, admit that she is not in love and do something about it. Of course that is never easy, and when the someone your with is mentally and physically challenged in ways, well I am certain you feel even more badly about saying what you have to say...

 So my mom is leaving her boy friend of 13 years. She has fallen in love with someone else, and he makes her happy. Why shouldn't she be happy? My mom does anything for anybody any time. She would give her last dollar to a cracked out hooker if she felt like it would help her in anyway. My mom is the most selfless person I know. I am happy that she is ready to do something for herself, and for her own happiness. At the same time I am sad. Sad for the changes in store, and sad for her boyfriend. I try to think heck maybe he feels the same way she's felt for so long and he feels stuck as well. I do not think that is the case though.

 The kids wonder if he's still going to be their "papa" and if the new boyfriend will also be their "papa" I don't have answers to either question. I remember my parents separating when I was about 10. I don't remember it being this hard. I think when your 10 you think less about how someones life might be turned upside down because of a decision like this... Your too busy thinking only about your own world, that is flip flopping every moment parents together or apart.

 speaking of parents... My dad never has responded to my letter. This hurts. In my heart I guess I knew, that he would not respond. I didn't really want to even send the stupid letter. It sucks that someone who was your parent, who cared for you and all that, just can give up and let go so easily. It sucks to feel like you were disposable. That is how I feel though.

 Work went much better today. Even though they forgot to give me my raise on my check... Next check should have it, and that is cool I guess. So far all 3 new girls are sticking. Been almost 3 weeks for the first 2. That is almost a new record!

 The kids are doing great. School year routine is in effect and going pretty well. Bedtime is early and I get time to myself with my husband and that helps lower the stress levels in our home.

 I am really worried about my mom. Her safety. I know her boyfriend loves her, but I just hope he doesn't love her so much that he flips out when she tells him she's leaving. Its always been in the back of my mind that he might... I would hate for him to hurt himself and her feel like it was her fault and even more so I pray that he will not do anything to harm her if he gets upset. I pray for her strength and his understanding with everything I have. I am hopeful it will go smoothly and he will still be the kids "papa" and they can remain friends.

 Lets go, on to tomorrow. Friday. Bring it!

Rapture

 I never knew, until I think Wednesday this week, that Saturday was the "end of the world" or the rapture or whatever people are saying its supposed to be. I think its funny that someone has said the world was going to end, and now the day before people are just taking notice. I mean last week, no one mentioned a thing. This week the whole place is going crazy. Either with people freaking out, or people making fun of the whole idea. Oh well, no point freaking out about it if you ask me. If its happening its happening. I highly doubt I am one of the ones who would be chosen to be pulled up at this point. I believe in God, and I do think I will go to heaven but I do not think I live my life closely enough to what God would want, to be taken up before the 7 year wrath and all that. I guess that is a horrible thing to admit, but I really think that very few people would be taken at this point.  So the end of the world upon us, I made some good money at work tonight. I was also ...

Its not always 50/50

 Sometimes one person has to hold up more weight than the other does. Lately I feel as though I am that person holding the extra weight. Lately I have been wishing I was not that person. I feel like I am being spread a bit too thin... I also feel like no matter how many times I try to explain myself, it does not matter.  So I will just keep waiting, and hopefully eventually someone will come and take a few books off of my stack. Take a load off. Help me out. Chip in. You get it? I am sure you do. Now if only other people did as well.  God doesnt give you more than you can handle. I wonder sometimes if He thinks the load he's giving me is being more evenly distributed than it is... Maybe he can review my case :)

The Lady In Red

  T he Frisco festival was this weekend. Fun times. Free rides, well this year half the rides were free. A band playing live and just fun all around. We always go of course, any time anything is free, were there!  Since we are not cool Destiny went with some friends and not us. Bailey was staying the night with a buddy so the 2 girls that were home, I told could bring a friend... Fun times.  At one point they were waiting in line for a slide/funhouse ride, after a certain point of waiting in line they were finally up to the part with the sign: At the bottom the sign says "If you are in the red sorry you cannot ride the ride"  Hannah is standing there, and she is looking quite concerned after a while... She looks at me and she says "mama, Lauren cannot ride this ride." then she points to the sign.  Oh yes, Lauren is VERY MUCH so over the green line... Heck Lauren is taller than Hannah so I am thinking what is your deal girl??!  Hannah then looks ...
