So many things have changed. People loved have come around and left. Others have died. Situations have moved on and people have moved out. A new chapter in my life has begun and I am happy where I currently am.
Last night, I lost another member of my family. My great-aunt Peggy passed away after having suffered from dementia and increasingly frail health. My mom and my grandparents are acting very strange. Granddaddy doesn't want to go to the funeral because his brother, Peggy's husband, hasn't called him in months. Granddaddy thinks that bad health and eyesight is no reason to have difficulty using a phone. So, instead of going to see his brother when he needs him most (especially since his wife has now died), Granddaddy prefers to hold against him the lack of phone calls. Grandma wants to go to the funeral and is trying to get Granddaddy to go. Unfortunately, that is just making Granddaddy even more mad. Mom thinks the whole thing between Granddaddy and Peggy's husband, Mickey, is absolutely ridiculous (which it is) and is attempting to convince Granddaddy to go and that is just making Granddaddy even more stubborn. Hopefully, Granddaddy will come to understand that his brother needs him.
The funeral is on Sunday at 3pm in Garland, TX.
On a happier note, a new chapter has begun in my life. I have moved out of my mom's house and into an apartment with a roommate. Things are still a bit of a mess but, they are getting sorted out quickly. I should have everything in order by next week. If not, then very very close. I plan to post some pictures of the new place as soon as I get it looking nice. Hopefully, that's soon.
Steven and I broke up. I know that no one saw it coming but, I believe we did the right thing. The past year and a half had been very trying on us and we just couldn't seem to be happy with one another anymore. We were constantly arguing and the relationship between Steven and Ryan was quickly falling apart. Steven was constantly busy with schoolwork but, he'd hold it against me when I would try to give him the time he needed to get it done. I tried to be understanding but, the more I tried to help, the more he seemed to hate it. It just wasn't working. We decided to end it before we couldn't even call one another friend anymore. We have both agreed it was for the best. We are still very good friends and I am thrilled to say that. We have at least saved the friendship and I am blessed to still have him as a close friend in my life. That is a friendship that I will always cherish. *huggles to Steven*
Since the breakup, I have spent a little time putting myself back together, working, and hanging out with friends. I do have another boyfriend now. His name is Macey. I met him at work. He was actually my head cashier for a while. He's not anymore but, we still make jokes about how I'm dating my boss. LOL! He's 24 and going to school to get a Bachelors in Computer Science and Bioinformatics. He's got a brilliant mind and I've often wondered why he still works at Lowe's but, he sees it the same way I do. It's just a paycheck and a means to a better future with higher education. There's nothing wrong with that. He's already met Ryan and those two have already formed quite the bond. It's adorable. If you can't find either one, then usually they are together playing some sort of game or building with legos. It's really awesome to see those two together. I've got some pix but, I'll have to post those later when I can pull them off my phone. I don't know when that will be. I have to get a cable that will allow me to do that first.
Well, my roommates finally have the PS3 working so, I'm going to run off and play some Rock Band with them. I'm looking forward to the comments. And yes, with this info, I do expect a few phone calls. That's cool. Talk to everyone later!
