I'm no spring chicken either, but I sure act like one. No, just kidding. LOL
That waiting for something to happen is just awful. Even though my H is still at home (I am in the process of being a WAW), for years after he wanted to try again, I have been waiting for him to do the trying, to do some work in this M. I have changed so much (he has said so himself), but he has done nothing where I can say, "wow, that makes me trust you just a little bit more, or makes me feel special." So, I wait for that proverbial knock on the door, but I've given up. He'll knock, but I'll be gone, if not physically, then emotionally. Six years is just too long. So, you see, you have a ways to go. Just be patient, and make a life for yourself. I, for instance, went back to school, and it has helped me beyond all my expectations.

Halloween is one of the things I'm about to get ready for myself. I'm still having the traditional Halloween party for the grands. I bought all this stuff last year after Halloween and have been saving it. Got my Fall wreath on the door. Still in the 90's here most days, but nights are cooler.
On the wilder side, I'm thinking of trying my hand at writing a children's book. They say 'write what you know' so I'm working out an angle on the whole Papa is gone thing. WTH. How is 'Papa is having a MLC and is a d*ck' as a working title.
Babysitting a few hours after church today. Might take the boogers to the park.
Opening scene: small child looking mournfully at large leather recliner with his shoulders bunched up and his arms out "Where's Papa? Papa working?"
Switch to scene where greying older man is watching much younger girlfriend barrel racing at rodeo, trying to look interested, listening to country music with his teeth gritted.
Happy Monday everyone. I'm happy to say that this was the best weekend I have had in a LONG, Long, long time. Never did get to my children's book, but oh well. Watched the 2 twilight movies again last night, kept me occupied until bedtime.
The sermon at church yesterday was 'Saving Us From Ourselves'. Certainly apt in my case.
Looking forward to former boss's retirement party next Friday night. Sort of a Farewell Kegger.
Another working title for my book, SA,"Papa was a Rolling Douchebag". Does that work for you?
