I think I’m doing pretty good today. I do still have occasional bouts of sadness when I think what she might be up to, but they are less frequent. I got a job today, which is a huge relief, what I was doing previously just wasn’t enough to support myself. I suspect that I’ll always [...]

Complicated
Posted in Uncategorized on January 22, 2009 | 2 Comments »
Yet another thing to be angry about. Our life was complicated enough before. Now, with trying to shuffle all the kids and everyone schedules, it’s near impossible. There are constant miscommunications on both sides, everyones calendar is always screwed up and being changed at the last minute. it’s yet another thing that makes it next [...]
Breakfast with Buddha

I finished reading Breakfast with Buddha last night. The wordsmithing is fantastic, especially if you like intricate descriptions of food. The beginning and especially the ending were a bit weak in my opinion. The story starts out with a typical upper middle class man who is tricked by his sister in to taking a road [...]

CC and I had a decent chat today, not about anything in particular, but it was decent. Its a bit surprising how painful that is. I did discover that she has stopped reading my blog, which I suppose is a good thing in some ways. Still, it does mean that she has [...]

I’m just going to leave this thing open for a day or two and write down all those little thoughts I have.
Of course she is happy to stuff us in a studio apartment while she has a house to live in when she’s not here.
She’s not selfish, but she refused to teach Bridget how to [...]
Hatred

In this world, hatred is never conquered with hatred. Among human kind, violence is never stopped by counter violence, injuries can never be healed by revenge and retaliation. The only way is reconciliation, letting go, and forgiveness.
–Buddha
Something to think about, both in my family life and the world at large.

I always have great thoughts while I”m on the motorcycle, but it seems that I can never remember the entire thing once I’m somewhere I can write. It seems like I keep thinking I’m getting through this, or I’ve accepted it, something comes up and informs me I haven’t. I keep thinking this isn’t real, [...]

We split up the kids over the weekend, sometimes it’s good for them. I called CC this morning because I was taking J to a skate park, and I wanted to make sure was doing something on the same level so that they had fun with both of us. Well, turns out that [...]
Frustrating Morning

Well, quite a morning I’ve had. I got up at 7, thinking I’d have plenty of time to get all three kids ready in the morning. The little one is currently doing two nebulizers in the morning, so he takes twice as long as he used to. So I get up everyone and start working, [...]

Well, yesterday was a fun filled day, both CC and Bridget were laid off. Exciting times in my household, we’ve pretty much decided that we can’t keep the house, which is sad, but a relief at the same time. Emotions were pretty high yesterday, we had some good talks though.
I think that I’ve been in [...]
