Life as I know it...

Well it was an exhausting but fun weekend. Went to Sabrina's daughters wedding....see how gorgeous Sabrina and I are?

Ok...Sabrina is gorgeous. I can pass as ok. :) It was a beautiful wedding and Sabrina did an amazing job with everything.

After the wedding I drove north to a friends house in Everett. For those who don't know where Everett is...it's 30 miles north of Seattle. The wedding was in Tacoma which is a million miles south of Seattle. Ok...it wasn't a million but the drive felt like it so work with me here. Margaret and I had a nice visit in between kids running around. We went blueberry picking, buying me some flip flops because I was braindead and forgot my casual shoes here in Yakima. Lime green kitten heels just don't go with denim shorts and a pink t-shirt. Spent some time visiing with Margarets family and then headed home. 2 and 1/2 hours later I'm back in hell...literally. It was 20 degrees hotter here than it was in Everett. How is that for a shock to your system?

Today was Monday and we all know how I feel about those. Actually today wasn't too bad. I was just tired. Got an email from someone I hadn't heard from in awhile so that was a bonus. The rest of the day...eh. Nothing exciting to report. Kyla is with her father for 2 weeks so it's lonely around here. School starts on the 24th so....yea!!! Summer is almost over!!!! Thank goodness. :) Still need to call the school and see what's what in J's classroom this year. Ah...life gets back to normal.

Well I got a couple more hours of sleep. I have the best kids. They let me sleep and didn't wake me up until my cell started ringing. We went out and about today. K wanted to try Bubble Tea so I obliged her. Mistake. It is not good by any stretch of the imagination. If you don't know what Bubble Tea is....g00gle it. Once you find out...don't try it. *shudder* An expensive taste test. There is a storm heading our way. Would you believe it's supposed to snow tonight??? Snow on Easter. How odd would that be? Speaking of Easter...my girls are watching TBN (Trinity Broadcasting Network) and watching a childs version of The Passion. Even watching the crucifixtion of Christ as a cartoon it still brings tears to my eyes. I am so unworthy of what He went through for me. Well not just me but all of mankind. I saw The Passion last year and that is when I realized I needed to turn my life around. I was making a serious mess of things so I gave it all back to God. My life has had it...

love

It's a struggle knowing he didn't love me and never did. To find out the things he does now for his wife? The woman who is bigger than I ever was, the woman who has been married multiple times, the woman who is tatted up and he hated tats, the woman who shows jealousy, the woman he won't keep secrets from but kept them from me, the woman who is everything he said he hated in me. Knowing all of this has made me hate him. I know it does nothing to him. It will only eat away at me but that has been happening to me for almost 20 years. I can only now admit that I hate this man with every fiber of my being. When I met him, I was in a good place. I was happy with myself, I had friends, I loved sex and I believed in love. In the almost 2 years I was with him, he destroyed every last bit of me. I know it was only 2 years but in 2 years, he obliterated every bit of who I was. Not a day went by where he didn't mentally or em...

What have I done?

I've been thinking about the things I've done in the last 20 years but, thanks to my memory, I need to make a list so I can actually see that my life wasn't completely horrible. Las Vegas 6 times Dallas for a girl's weekend Forks 4 times for girls' weekends Cruise to Alaska Cruise to Bermuda x 2 Cruise to Belize, Honduras, Mexico Road trip to South Dakota x 2 Southern California for a long weekend Nashville to judge a beauty pageant. Nascar races x 2 one being a Championship. Orlando Florida - Disneyworld and Universal Studios California - many times Leavenworth - many times Girls' weekends - many times I have more trips coming up with a cruise to Alaska and a cruise around Ireland. A weekend trip to Montana. A girl's week to Vegas. I'm sure there will be more to be planned. I became a Nana and will be a Nana x 2 this year. I've been able to purchase 2 homes. Even though I have battled depression, I have had friends stand steadfast by my side and...
