This morning I woke up missing hands on my hips, rolled over and screamed into my pillow. My feet hit the floor and I remembered that its Thursday and a national holiday in Angieland which made going to work on 4 hours of sleep bearable.
Two years ago today two people got married for really stupid reasons. Today I'm going to see a notary on my lunch break and then I'm submitting an uncontested divorce decree to the judge. One year ago today I started working for the County. Yesterday I got rid of the rest of my stuff and my belongings are now reduced to 5 surfboards a tri bike, clothes and a computer. Isaiah helped me by carting off a truckload of stuff. As we were leaving I felt overwhelmed by the responsibility of being on my own and he said all of the perfect things because he is the product of a good mom. Really, someone should write that woman a thank you card for contributing such a good guy to the world. We were amused at the fact that we both got separated on the same day and that both of our exes got on a plane yesterday. The Big Island is 330lbs lighter and we feel freer than ever. So even though it goes without saying, I told him how grateful I am to have him as a friend. I know the cost of our friendship was and still is pretty high but I think it's worth it.
This weekend I'm praying for surf. Tosh and I are hammock sleeping after free keiki surf lessons with Lindsey and Nainoa. Today I'm running Painted Church for the 3rd time this week. I'm good. Life is a blessing.
