This town was built on muddy stilts and the lunatic parade.
I am really really happy with my life right now.
Not to say that I haven't been happy with it for a while, it just seems that things are getting better and better. I had a realization a couple of months ago about me and the people I choose to be in my life.
I decided that the people around me were in desperate need of editing. I'm weeding out all the people that are either problematic, dependent, selfish, untrustworthy, addicted, lie, or are unwilling to change. You can't end your friendship with people nicely, and I am upset that I had to hurt those people. But once I did, things started to get better. Maybe I wasn't distracted by these people and the respective conflicts that we had.
A friend that after 4 years still couldn't trust me or tell me the truth.
A friend after 7 years that refuses to take charge of their life and not wallow in the misery that they have put themselves into. Who lets someone else run their life.
I just couldn't deal with it anymore, and I didn't want too.
On a lighter note, my girls are doing well. I have to break some of them, but it wont be a problem. Contests coming up soon. I don't really care so much, I'm more concerned with the winter and preparing for that. The private lessons are successful and by the time winter starts I'm not going to have to deal with training them and wasting valuable time.
I love being home. Not living at home so much ( though that is fabulous because I'm saving a whole hell of a lot of money ), but more so being close to my family. My step father and I have worked out our issues and are moving along quite effortlessly. My little brother is growing up and now has the same size shoe that I do. Bastard. Now he and I are getting v. close. Warm Fuzzies.
Almost done with my to-do list. The scroll that it is. Now all I really have to do is work out my halloween costume for Jessica's fiesta in Austin.
