Haven't really been on for the past couple of days, not a lot going on. XW and I are talking, mostly about logistics of the kids and the settlement. The boys have been away most of the week. Seems like I'm sinking into my life, to be honest. Refinancing the house. Doing house chores, arranging for the house exterior to be painted, doing interior painting, working to get get the boys seperated into different rooms. Packed up XW's stuff that was in the master closet / bathroom. Funny, a friend stopped by and was teasing me about the decor that XW had put up - flowers, valances, little plates, etc. that I really needed to change because it was 1) feminine and 2) hideous. Hah. Yeah, starting to dawn on me, making the house my own. So - see below - heave ho, throwing out the past.

So for the sake of silly idle posting... Music is one of my hobbies, and I'm sure you all know how song lyrics pop out at you while you're going through all this. This popped up on my ipod yesterday, from one of my favorite artists. So here are your (partial) song lyrics for the day:

Always Returning by Glen Phillips

Here we go
Falling out of ranks
You're unafraid of consequence
I'm faking it as if you hadn't guessed
"Heave ho"
Throwing out the past
You will speak for optimism
I can be the realist

Slow down, hold on
Oh you don't know what's to come
You say, my love
I should let you go

I'm watching you run
Breaking down walls
Making your waves
Bearing your cross
You're turning away
After it all
You're always returning
You're always returning
