another walk

Monday and today. Monday I walked up to our little manmade lake and it was beautiful with the clouds reflecting the setting sun colors. It was amazingly beautiful.

Yesterday I neglected to walk.

I wasn’t going to walk today, but dau called me at 5:10. I was still at work. the sun had finally peeked out a bit, and it was not too chilly, so before the sun set, I walked around where I work (off the clock, of course) and talked to dau on the cell phone. She caught me up on some stuff. We have not been talking much lately. She used to tell me EVERYTHING that was going on w her bf and her. The last couple times I have had to tell her to not tell me EVERYTHING. She tells me that I am not supposed to know, so I told her then, don’t tell me. I don’t like pretending to not know something I know. I feel deceitful. I would rather not know. She understands, but sometimes she just wants so badly to tell someone.

She is getting VERY, VERY close to bf now. If she were more in favor of it, I think wedding bells would be imminent. But she wants to wait. She is young. She will be 20. she wants this guy and if he wants her he will have to wait. I told her you can’t lose by waiting, but there is danger in being too big of a hurry. You gotta know what you are getting into. I wish I would have thought of a few things earlier and dealt with them differently.

Anywayz, we were talking and hub called me. They didn’t know where I was. Son was home and for some reason I thought he was at work tonight. Hub was still at work, so I wasn’t in a big hurry to get home. Son didn’t call me. He usually calls to see where I am and when I am coming home. He had a rough day tho and probably just wanted to veg.

I didn’t answer when hub called me, but I walked in the general direction of his car. He was driving toward me on the road by where we work. Then he wanted to hear all about what dau was telling me. So we talked a bit, but she tells me stuff a dad doesn’t really want to hear about. “girl talk” I call it. So, I said goodbye to hub and continued walking, but got in my car to go home finally. It was nice to talk to her. I really, really, like her bf. He is genuinely sweet.

More on that later.

faith hope and love, but the greatest of these is love.

Your family sounds great! RYN: Believe me, they are all taking responsibilty for there own stuff as of now! I talked to Princess this morning, explained that I’m mom, not maid, I get respect because I’m mom, because I deserve it and I will not ever allow anyone in our home to make me feel victimized again! She’s not happy, I don’t care!

That sounds nice.
