quite some time
It's been eons since I posted on here... I'm just no good at keeping up with these things, especially when they're so public. Those that know me know a lot of what has been going on with me though. There have been many ups and downs, some spectacular highs and some plummeting lows, but I'm surviving as usual. I'm getting tired though, of all the stress. Ah well, like that's going to change any time soon.
I had a wonderful visit with my daughter. I am so blessed to have such a beautiful child. She's quite an impressive young woman, so full of life and spirit. It did me so much good to see her. I can't get over the changes in her though. She used to be so standoffish, even with me. Not much of a cuddler/hugger... but all that has changed. She was very affectionate, which is just what I wanted :)... She took the news about my father pretty well, and hopes to meet me in Melbourne to see him sometime before Christmas. I'm going down in late August, but I want to see him first without her there, just so I can prepare her. It's going to be tough, because Dad has been my hero for most of my life. I'm still adjusting, but thank goodness the cancer hasn't spread and that he's doing well so far on the radiation.
My love life, well... it's there, we'll say that for now.. stay tuned for further developments, LOl!
In other news... it's official, I've adopted another "child"! My bratling is now officially my daughter! I don't know what has happened to Erik, I guess he divorced Chris and I. That makes me sad, but it's how things go sometimes. Alisha is such a sweetheart :) My wonderful son called me last night! It was so good to hear Chris' voice, seems like ages since we'd spoken voice to voice. I had a smile on my face for the rest of the night :) He's such a love.
Ah well, I've rambled enough for one night, that's it for now... hopefully won't be two months or more before i get back to this.
