Blah

It's how I feel - blah. Nothing zippy about blah. Nothing fun, perky or snazzy about blah. It's just blah! Boring boring blah.

Time to snap out of it.........

Some Alone Time...

MyEscapeHatch@gmail.com (Monique) — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 22:15:00 +0000

The boys left at 4 to spend the weekend w/ their Dad. Usually I'm ready for a break and while still sad to see them go, I can imagine all the things I will enjoy doing in the quiet. This weekend though, not so much. Before they had even left I began texting w/ friends to see what was going on this weekend. The idea of just relaxing here alone seems like way too much quiet.

Um, so yeah... divorce sucks!

MyEscapeHatch@gmail.com (Monique) — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 04:10:00 +0000

I'm not really talking much about it in the open. But something should be said. My divorce will be final very soon. It sucks.

My boys and I are fine, we will continue to be fine until we are great. Time, that's all I can give it.

No big blow up, nothing dramatic, it was just time to do it. We couldn't avoid it any further.

He left quietly, so far things have gone quietly. I'm sure when it gets down to the final moments it will get nasty.

I'm told no matter what, divorces always are. I will brace myself for that.

*sigh* so yeah... that's what it is.

"Spending so many years alone and observant made me learn how to make a relationship work by watching everyone else fuck up theirs. The key is to just be nice to each other, and not be snarky. You want me to get up and get you a glass of water? Of course, my love. You need my help getting through grad school? I'll do all that I can for you. People don't need to snap at each other, and sacrifice should go both ways when needed. Love is too important a gift to waste. And that is what I saw... that's what I learned." - Megan's friend Cory

Appropriate.....

MyEscapeHatch@gmail.com (Monique) — Fri, 02 Oct 2009 15:30:00 +0000

...to come here to mention my morning.

I woke and it was bright and sunny outside instead of the dark pre-dawn I normally see these days. I said "uh oh" and jumped from bed. The morning was a blur of "boys get up we're late", "where are your shoes" and "where are my keys" ((they were in my jeans pocket, the keys not the shoes)).

Everyone was dressed, backpacks found, headed to the car when Lil B says "oh, I forgot", which is really never a good thing to hear from him. It ordinarily means that something has gone horribly wrong and he did not want to mention it in the moment but for whatever reason must do so now.

We were standing in the front yard when this came out of him. Having just walked out of the house, the house he wore these shoes in to walk through every room, at least once this morning and last night, he shows me dog poop covering the bottom of one shoe. Oh I Forgot. UGH.

Guess who is going on pooper scooper duty for AWHILE now. Gross.

(("Appropriate" because I'm always running behind here anymore. I was actually stunned that it has been a week since I was last here.))

He used Lil B's face as a launching pad this morning. He has scratches to the side of his eye and under his nose. Poor guy just wanted to watch Curious George before going to school.

One of those days....

MyEscapeHatch@gmail.com (Monique) — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 00:30:00 +0000

...... where I wish I still smoked weed. It's been 11 years and I probably wouldn't do it again, but I do find myself dreaming occasionally about it and cigarettes ((also gone 11 years)). I'll go have a glass of wine instead.
