And a breather… sorta

March 30, 2010

Wowza.  I’ve got about 4 hours before I have to get up for the airport.  Daddy is driving me at 5am.  Dads are just the best human beings out there, second to Moms.  They don’t think twice about these sorts of things.  I am so thankful for mine.

Here’s an update from the craziest Monday ever:

  • We lost the flat that we wanted!  You should have seen my face this morning.  And all of the stress!  I was speechless!  The world had ended.  I was mad, sad, crazy.  BUT the good news:  We found another one and I think it’s actually better!  Not as sheik as the brick loft but this one is bright and open and on the 12th floor with (hopefully) good views.  When life deals you lemons, make lemonade!
  • My Klipsch speakers didn’t come in on time!  Another bummer!  I was mad, sad, crazy.  And then I walked the dog for a half hour and got over it.  Fresh air can do absolute wonders! (Advice: Amazon Prime Expedited shipping is what they say +2 days)
  • Books for the journey.  I decided on Committed by Elizabeth Gilbert and The New Earth by Eckhart Tolle (which, by the way, were both much cheaper at Target when compared to Borders!).  Bookstores/libraries are just about the closest places to heaven here on earth.  
  • Bear hates me.  I think she knows I am abandoning her again.  =(  And as funny as this sounds, it actually really breaks my heart.  The poor thing is a child of “divorce” and has split personalities.  First she hates me, and then she loves me.  Hates me, loves me, hates me, loves me.  I haven’t really been the best Mama these last few years but I figure this self-investment I’m making will serve her better in the long run.  I was too young to become a mom then!  Please forgive me!  I’m figuring myself out so that I can be a better Mama in the future!  Mama will be less crazy Baby Bear!  I promise.

Must. Sleep. Now.  Thanks. And. Goodnight.
