Busy busy busy......
Figure that I haven't posted in a while so I might try and get a few thoughts down...
So the new semester has started and I feel like I will be in school forever but that is not exactly a bad thing. My classes promise to be interesting and I am looking forward to them. Jessie is doing really well in his classes so far and loving every minute of it. The children are all doing really well in school. Got a facebook account and got sucked into some of the games there. It seems easier to just put a sentence or two up that way. Whereas here hardly anyone writes anymore and I feel that I must actually commit to writing paragraphs. (I wish I had more time to write paragraphs)
Boo got the birthday party that he had been hoping for. He got his skating party and his food fight. Most of all he got his friends. That was what he asked for was for his list of best friends to attend. All of the list came except for emmi and aily. That part he doesn't understand. And frankly I don't know what to tell him. I have tried everything that I know of to be nice to bonnie or even reestablish remedial communication so that the kids could still talk to one another but she still won't budge. I mean seriously what am I supposed to tell him, "Sorry boo but when I saw bonnie last I told her I was glad her life was doing so well and she refused to talk to me." I just don't get it. I get all I can't do is hope that someday she will decide that hating me is too much energy and we can talk again. I will be here hot chocolate in hand. Speaking of which...
I guess that is something to document. We actually have friends again. It has been so nice coming out of hiding. Friends both new and old have been cropping up like crazy the last six months and aside from being really surreal, it has been a blast. I didn't realize how much I had been missing the social contact of other people. I think we have gone to more parties, dinners, and had more people over then in the last three years combined. My children have friends again. There is singing and music in our house and it is not just our voices. They have all been so supportive and wonderful. I am amazed!
Sean's divorce is slow going. That is another clusterf*ck all on its own. I don't get it. Cynthia spent her whole life wishing her father would make a healthy kind of effort towards her and now is spending all her time and energy trying to make her children believe that their father has abandoned them. I mean what on earth does she think that does to her kids? I would have killed to have any of my children's sperm donors make any kind of effort. That was one thing I was really glad of in my parents divorce. Neither party abandoned the kids. But she is bound and determined that because he left her that she is going to use the children to hurt him. I just don't understand that at all.
The beta finally died. He had been really sick for awhile but he finally gave up. The kids are planning what the want to get next. Also vaguely looking for a dog. We shall see how that goes..... I guess I should get back to the homework I have been avoiding. Hope you are all doing well.
