Don't you hate when you have a sinking feeling that things are going downhill? I'm really down on myself, and I know why. While it's silly, I can't help but go through the motions anyway. Take the steps, dum di dum.
My step grandmother from my father's side contacted me today. Just a little FYI to those that don't know; my father and mother divorced when I was about 2 and I have never heard from him. He is also a very bad man to say the least. Anyway, the contact caught me so off guard. After having such an unsettling day, I got that message on facebook. It was very timid and unassuming though it gave very little hint on "which side she was on." A quick call to my older sister proved that she was a good person.
I'm just a little caught off... Here is this side of my family I have never had contact with, one that I felt disowned us, and she has open communications with me. To top it off, I am to meet her daughter, my aunt, next weekend in Galveston (Heather is coming in from NC, dontchaknow?). This should be exciting.
Is it any small wonder I am so out of it?
Let me go eat my fatty burger.
family,
