Thursday

Not a lot happening today.  I washed some of the blankets I got to bring for the eles.  Today was very gray and miserable.  Finally got the rain late this afternoon.  Cool outside but humid in my apartment.  I have a semi-basement apartment that I have lived in for 35 years.  Hey, I have a 2 bedroom apartment to myself and if is only $535.  Best deal in town, seeing as I have a beautiful park across the street.

People are promising me more blankets and sunscreen for the babies.  I love it.   They heard I was going and asked if there was anything they could contribute.  They won't go so far as fostering, but I will take what I can get.

Nothing else much going on.  I have a 4 day weekend and the first day is rained out.  My son has my car and he's in Ohio, so not much I can do.  Unfortunately I have osteo-arthritis and walking can be a little difficult when the weather is like it is, but I get by.  I got my cleaning done, laundry, floors, etc.  so I can't complain too much.

I just finished watching The Karate Kid, now I am watching the Karate Kid II.  Hokey but I like it.

I have slipped on my quitting smoking.  I will start again.  It is harder than I thought it would be.  Unfortunately I am allergic to the patches.  But I have the electronic cigarettes which have no nicotine in them and I bought the Nicorette gum, so hopefully with the 2 combined I can do it.

All for now.  Have a wonderful weekend.  To my friends down under, keep warm.  To my friends here, stay cool.

Sunday

It has been a strange day, weather wise.  Woke up to pouring rain, then beautiful sunshine, the pouring rain again.  Weird.  I am really missing Mumbushi this week.  Loved that little guy.  FB is getting a little weird.  We had a really nice group, then it grew.  In some ways it is a little better, in some ways, I liked the group we had.  Can you tell I don't like change too much?  I think I am just feeling too sentimental tonight.  Missing all my babies and can't wait to see them.  Mumbushi was only with us a short time, but he touched a lot of lives.  I am so sorry I never got to meet him.  Oh, Lord, the tears are starting. A little upset tonight.  Maybe I am being a little petty, but I don't care.  My son's girlfriend's family want to throw a birthday party for him tomorrow.  This is great.  However, for his birthday, he borrowed my car to go to a wedding, and stayed there overnight.  Just cam...

Saturday

Not a lot happening today.  Got the cleaning done.  Relaxed, had a drink.  Watching "Night at the Museum".   Nice Saturday night.  It's a fun movie. Wow, tomorrow is Greg's birthday.  35 years old.  Never thought either of us would make it this far.  :-).  He was born on a Saturday morning, September 4 at 5:59 a.m.  Kept me up all night.  This was after 2 false labors. He really turned into a great young man.  Has a store he opened with a partner.  He is wonderful.   Happy birthday, Greg.  Really proud of you. Anyhow, that's it for today.  It's a long weekend with rain for most of it.  Blah.  But I am getting a lot done. Have a great rest of the weekend, my friends.  TTFN

Monday

Have been doing a lot of thinking tonight.  I realize I can hold a grudge.  In my life, I have been abandoned by 2 mothers and a father.  However both mothers decided to come back into my life around the same time.  And it was a case of "let's forget about what was and there was nothing in the middle".  Everything is normal, we go on as if nothing happened.  Excuse me, but FUCK THAT.  I am not going to forget everything and just act like everything is normal.  I hate swearing, but there are a few times when it is warranted and this is one of them. Sorry for the rant.  It just really ticks me off that they expect me to be available when they decide to show up, like it's a family obligation.  There has never actually been a family situation. O.k. I have gotten it out of my system.  Deep breaths.  Relax.  Done. How are all my friends today?  Hope you are having a great week.  Just took Kayla for her walk....
