Maggie's Place! Yay!
I started my work placement at Maggie's Place today! Naturally, it was soooo much fun, screaming babies and all! It honestly felt like I never left at all. I seem to fit right in there and I get along great with all of the staff. I can't remember the last time that I had such a happy day and was so relaxed when I came home.
Laurana and I had a lot of fun together tonight too. We played and chased each other around at home for awhile and then we went grocery shopping. I put her in one of the truck carts and we drove all around Sobey's making engine, break and horn noises. We got to see the ponies, lion, train and tractor, which are always the highlight of going to the mall. It's still a huge disappointment to Laurana that Santa is gone, even though it's been how many months? She was also disappointed the the Easter Bunny or "rabbit", as she calls him, was also no longer there. I'm telling ya that child as an amazing memory. She still asks about the Christmas decorations at my parents house on almost a weekly basis.
Sunday was a great day! I got to lay out in the sun for a couple of hours and got burnt to a crisp and then Laurana came home and we played outside for awhile and she got to run around in the grass in her bare feet. Dad put the flags back on the deck so Laurana was thrilled by that. Flags are one of her many obsessions. Whenever we walk past the post office we always have to stop and say hi to the flag there.
It's so hard to believe that Laurana is going to be two next Thursday!!!! Time goes by way too fast! I still don't have the plans all done up for her party but I know that I'm going to buy her lots of presents and that all the decorations are going to be Dora.
My whole "man" situation is still all fucked up. Robin and I are going to court on May 24th for custody and child support for Laurana. We're still living together until we find other apartments, so as you can imagine, that's just a blast. We basically only speak to each other if it has to do with Laurana and if one person is home the other person generally leaves.
I still have no clue as to what's going on between Div and I. I like him a lot and want to be with him, but I don't know what the hell is going on in his head. I don't think he even knows what's going on. He's really sweet when we talk, and then it's like he avoids me for a few days, then we talk again. It's messed up. He sent me an email Thursday night saying that he thinks that we need to sit down together and discuss our whole situation so I took that as good news. I was out of town on my class trip all day Friday and most of the day Saturday. Anyways, we still haven't talked and right now he doesn't seem to be answering my messages. Whatever. I'm very close to giving up. The frustration level really isn't worth it and I deserve a hell of a lot better than that. If nothing is solved by Friday night then I'm not going to bother anymore (or at least I'm going to try not to bother anymore).
Anyways, there's a lot of stress going on right now but I'll deal with it and by June 1st everything should be calm again. Thank God for Laurana and my friends! Without them I'm sure I'd have to be locked up!
