9:46 AM - Just Thoughts
These past few days have been moody and draining. I'm not in a foul mood, but it seems like everywhere I've gone that doom and gloom has reared it's head to those around me. My spouse and I had an argument and at first, instead of talking to me, he wanted to stub up and get out of our marriage. I blew up because I feel I've not given him a reason for this and I told him everything I've probably felt in the last 14 years and that I was tired of it. This "blow-up-now-and-maybe-talk-later" crap was sucking the life outta me and he could either get with the program or I was done. Well, we talked things out and he's apologized. Things are better. He even admitted he was wrong and out of line. So who knows? There may be hope yet. Well, a dear friend of mine experienced something that no one should. A collegue said something sexually degrading about her to a restauranteur at the place they were dining. She left the restaurant in tears. I've tried to get her to file a grievance, but she doesn't want to rock the boat. I told her if she didn't speak up that he would continue to think his behavior was acceptable. She said she feared losing her job. This hurts me so much for her. Then, she and the man she's been seeing had words because she felt like she was "last on his list". Basically, she is. Because she told him how she felt, he told her she didn't have a right to act like that. Excuse the hell outta me? Nobody will tell me how to feel. It hurt my friend so bad. Then a collegue of mine is having trouble with her oldest son. His behavior is becoming unusual and he doesn't have any real explanation for it. He's 12. My collegue is about at her wits end because this stuff's going on daily and the therapists and drs have not offered anything to help. So, it's been an ugly beginning to a week for many. But this day, I'm calm. I'm working some and going to see my niece and nephew after work. I always enjoy that. They don't have a hidden agenda, they just like that I come to see them. I'm coming with gifts entow, but they don't know yet. I don't have any kids of my own yet, so I like spoiling theirs a little. I always ask the parents before I do. I don't want to disrespect them ya know. It's supposed to rain today. I'm glad though. The grass is dry and it's been kinda hot. It's supposed to get up to 80 today. Spring has sprung finally. The Bradford Pear Trees are in bloom and my Dogwood is about to bloom any day. Things have been hairy, but they are good right now. I just hadn't been on in a bit and I wanted to share. Well, gonna try and be productive today. Don't know how far I'll get, but here's to hopin'. Thanks for listening to me ramble. It is appreciated. Have a good one!
