Yesterday
Wow, I never did do a real update yesterday, and I really did have stuff to say.
My emotions were a mess, I felt like I was riding a roller coaster. One minute so happy and the next minute in tears.
I spent, all in all, over two hours on the phone with my sister yesterday. It felt really good, I had forgotten what a great person she is. I don't just like her because she is my sister, but I would chose her as a friend if we weren't. We are quite alike in a lot of ways. I was so pleased she called me, she asked for my advise, let me be the first to know some things (I am usually the last to know things in my family). It felt really good.
And the downs were really deep lows. It started at dinner, with the girls putting me in tears, when I was trying to explain to them what needed to happen before we got a dog, and what type of dogs I was looking into getting. After dinner Elizabeth started having some very intense teenage drama moments. I got everything from I hate you, you hate me, you're not allowed to love me, if you hate me then I can do what I want, I don't need you, I can do everything on my own, etc. Lots of tears involved. Spent over two hours dealing with this.
So I got two hours of lows sandwiched by joy.
Thank goodness the hormones haven't been flowing so fast and furious today.
