OB, thanks so much for sharing that. If anything in this world, I absolutely can be at peace that my daughter is happy and healthy and also saw how a strong woman survives and thrives.

Staycation has been going well. Saturday my friend scored tickets to brew at the zoo which is a beer fest at the zoo. I always wanted to go and we had so much fun. Sunday I ended up going to my dads and stepmoms. He did actually mean his apology. However, when both of them got me without the other one around, they went on and on complaining about the other. My stepmother said he was really off when he told me no, and she said that she told him I’m not a guest and I’m family and he shouldn’t have said no. She went on and to complain about how my dad is being super cheap all of a sudden and I guess even more particular ( he already is a particular man) and he’s driving her nuts. Then my dad complains to me how she spends too much and thinks they have all this money hit they don’t . They are both retired. Spend tons of time together and I think it’s wearing them down.

Anyhoo, beautiful weather . I got 2 beach days and a bike ride . Im finally decompressing and it feels good. Today I have to get dental work which stinks.

My daughter on the other hand hates Puerto Rico and can’t wait to come home . And I get it. They have an air BNB which looks beautiful, but is very buggy apparently. And there are huge lizards hanging out at the pool. They tried to go to the beach yesterday and it was a “bust” she is there with her dad and his wife, and her parents. Not the most fun crew. She called me crying from her room saying she doesn’t want to sound like a spoiled brat or ungrateful but she really doesn’t like it there and wants to come home . I validated her and told her before she knows it she will be home .

My weirdo rash is not clearing up. I refuse to take steroids because when I did the first time , it messed everything up, I gained a whole bunch of weight I couldn’t lose until I saw the doctor. I’m not doing that again. Hopefully soon it decides to go away. It’s not spreading anymore, the stuff that is there just won’t go away. It’s ugly.

I had a date last night that went really well. Unfortunately he is also in the divorce process. I finally find a hockey player who worked for my team and is a huge fan of my team, and the timing is off. We had a 3 hour date and the conversation never died . He comes from a good family, parents still together. A younger sister who shares my name and even got married where I did, lol. He’s close with his brother . He’s got a great job and closes on a townhome this week in a well to do area. But that stupid timing . Story of my life. We did kiss and it was wow. And he did the sweetest thing before we parted ways. He kissed me on the forehead. No one has done that in I can’t tell you how long .

Oh well, odd to the gym and then the dentist
