So I got my list done yesterday. Except for the beer, but I substituted chocolate so it is all good.

I'm so glad because my mind and hands were busy so I was not able to ride the emotional roller coaster.

I was even able to get a few extra things done. One thing was magical. It was so stupid, but it was so great. I picked my S up from soccer and I took him to get a uniform shirt from KMart. I thought I had an hour until my D was going to get off work. So I never checked my phone the whole time I was in the store until the very end. We were standing in line, and of course the lady in front of me had an issue, and it was the only open register. So after 10 minutes, when I normally would had been beyond irritated, we were still waiting on the price check issue and me and my S fell into a conversation that had us both rolling. We were belly-laughing and having such a good time I forgot we were supposed to be irritated because we were stuck in line.
Had I checked my phone, none of that would have happened. It turned out my D got off work early. Since I did not see her text, she started walking home, in the dark through a park! GRRRRR. Unbelievably, she walked right past my H's house where my mom and H were and never asked either of them to take her home.

I saw the texts and was able to pick her up in the park. I drove right past a gang of not friendly looking teens to get to her and it was kinda scary. I dont mind being a single parent, but I hate being an only parent.

I was supposed to go out with my mom for dinner tonight, but she just cancelled on me so I have a few hours to relax a bit. I just home my brain takes the opportunity to relax and not stress or focus on pain.
