It's Funny ....

.... that I don't notice the 18th of the month anymore.
Not funny ha-ha, but funny odd.

Two years ago I would never have believed this would be happening.
I hated the 18th.
Of every month.
Every.
Single.
Month.

And now I can write a check or add something to the calendar and not even realize the significance of that date.
Odd.

Thanks, RJ, for checking in on me.
I hate it when I don't post for a while, but I really had nothing to say.
Well, I had nothing positive to say.
So, rather than be negative .... I chose not to write.
Yes, my mother taught me, "If you can't say something nice about someone, don't say anything at all."
So I didn't say/write anything.

I'm still feeling a bit adrift, though not as much.

And I'm remembering that relationships .... all good relationships .... take work.
Sometimes .... a lot of work.
And most times .... work is not fun.
Sigh.

Jim and I had arrived at the point where the work load was a lot lighter.
We still had kid stuff that was on-going ..... and always a lot of work.
But "we" were good.
"We" were great .... 99% of the time.
Not all, but most.
We were blessed.
Indeed.

Now it seems that everything and everyone takes work.
And I guess I need to decide if I want to work that hard.
In many areas, with several people.

It's been a long week.
And I'm tired.

Things are good.
Mostly.
Just hard.

But hey, whose life isn't?

Happy Friday, Peeps and have a great weekend .... I know I will.
Son #3 and I are leaving tomorrow to go watch the daughters (#s 2 & 3) in the play, "Noises Off".
I can't wait to see it.
And I especially can't wait to see them.

Oh ..... and I almost forgot ..... GO POKES!!!!!!
And Happy Homecoming!!!
O..... S..... U......!!!!

:)
