Happy New Year, class!

I spent the evening with the toddlers because I couldn’t leave Sophia. It was a lot of fun. She slept on the way home, woke at 2 am and stayed awake until 530 am. Be careful what you wish for. Lol

I’m ready for 2018. This is the year of the Marchers!

Lol Bobbie! Sounds like something that happens in this house. I’m exhausted today! Watching some Harry Potter and working on eating up the bad food today.

I thought about it and then thought better.

And then I changed my mind.
Because I'm a woman.

So here you go...

Well back from yoga. Feeling pretty serene. The music was a local band with their own songs. Was actually really good. Now I feel lazy. Lol. Where did all my pep go?

Bobbie your New Years sounds like it was amazing! ❤️

AK - Hi!!!! Happy to see you!! I’m back on the healthy eating train today too. Just threw out a few leftover Christmas treats. Enjoy HP!!

There was a band playing at your yoga class? Really?
Where is this class and how long will it take me to get there.

Happy NY class mates. I think my pique of enforced misery has flat lined.
I am not going to spin gold from straw about not being invited to my oldest son's wedding,because it sucks and is one of those ripples that emanates from my boozing. I cannot compete with memories (never met son's wife). Same with the whole xmas gig. Also in just under a week, it is my b/day. I share this with my died-from-alcohol bro (not twins) What this has shown me - is even though I fight very hard and do okay with life- there has always been an enticement , a sliver of hope my son's will reach out to me.
I think the final death throws of that hope are now in the 'it would be nice' category.
Acceptance does bring a certain peace of mind.

Yes, it does PJ love, but that doesn't make it hurt any less.
And I know how much all of that hurts.

Mostly, what I know is that you have the strength to let out those powerful emotions and survive. The strength to be able to move into "it would be nice" if....

One day I hope your sons get to see the man I know, the man we know.
