Yesterday was a nightmare. It got so cold that it had drained my truck battery. Luckily, even though my head gasket is about to blow on my Jeep, I was able to jump it off. Then of course my daughter’s dog tore up a trash bag my daughter left outside instead of putting in in the back of the truck. We have to drive it 2-3 acres to the trash can. I don’t know her logic at times. After having to pick it up every time I am sure she will learn.

I then took twin A and my youngest to the Dr. Twin A has an ear infection and my youngest has Flu B. So that is just what we are dealing with. They are both doing well. Twin B had to go get scans this past Monday. We got the results today and everything looked good so I assume we are settling on acid reflux being the culprit. 

Yesterday I also finished my school work for the week. I am so happy to be done with Stats. I love school again. Funny how that works. I feel like these classes are a breeze. It is a breath of fresh air as far as I am concerned.

I’ve been reflecting and trying to dig to see how I really feel about the situation that ended with G. I came to the conclusion that I tried to make myself feel sad because I thought I should… But I don’t feel sad. Maybe somewhere in me, the fact that it isn’t like me to not care, I felt like it was wrong. Not caring must be wrong. But it isn’t I now feel like I just don’t care and that is how I feel. Once I accepted that I started to feel a lot better. I am starting to understand a different layer of myself. Some used to say I was too caring. It isn’t that I have lost that. I think I am finally reading situations for what they are, as I should have all along.

I wanted to get that out there in the open because it is important that I keep a transparency here that I may not have everywhere else. Important for me. Accountability, reflection, and growth are a package deal. I just want to be in a good place. I’m getting there by being open and honest. Some of you have noticed I usually answer questions honestly too. I just won’t lie. It takes too much effort, and for what? Nothing. I’m not easily offended either. This is truly a good therapy for me.

I really appreciate everyone who takes the time to read these ramblings : ) It means a lot to me and I always read all of the comments. Thank you so much!

    Kids…it gets worse as they get older…the physical issues are the easier (I know it doesn’t seem like it at the moment).
    I loved school. I love to learn. I still do. I just changed to a different job so that I can learn a whole new skills.

    Honesty. Everybody says loving honesty but few practice it. I really enjoy reading your answers for it. You didn’t have to give them but you choose to.
    Honesty and openness are the most sexy traits for me. You just can’t fake it.

    I hope you find, as I did, that as I grew older things got better. I don’t think they really got better just my ability to deal with things and move on improved over time. I hope you find this to be true. Keep that chin up, it only gets better!Enjoy the weekend.

    First time reader. I lost my wife in 2021. Everything I just read, feels the same to me. Maybe idk how to process my emotions?? I finally got into a therapist. We’ll see how that goes.
