Sleep is overrated. LOL. I am soo tired since hubby left for a work trip and our daughter has discovered how to run and jump and get into EVERYTHING. I am soo tired today I can barely move. I twisted my ankle a week or so ago and then again today, and am supposed to play golf this weekend, so we will see how that goes. Honestly?! I would love to skip the golf, send my dd with my mom somewhere and go to sleep for 5 hours during the day. :)

It is hard having my hubby away. It gets harder and harder the older dd gets. He talked about trying to find a job where he doesn't have to travel, and of course, I am all for that - but...I just want him to be happy. If he is happy traveling, then I am happy too (just very very tired lol)


Family is another one. My poor dad. The only thing i can say is that I always compare his family to a group of high school kids and I ask myself, "if I were in high school, and they were treating me this way, would I choose to be friends with them." Each time I ask myself that, the answer is no. Get this (their latest tactic)

dad goes golfing with his mom and his cousin. they play a round of golf and all is good. then having a beer after, his mom starts talking about going to dinner tonight, which she already made a HUGE deal about bc she didn't think she would have enough time to play golf and go to dinner. So, in the middle of the conversation, she says, oh yea, *cousin name* you're going to dinner to - well, come to find out everyone on my dads side is going to dinner but my dad and his family. nice. what bastards. I feel so bad for my dad b/c he doesn't have any family that includes him and like i told him tonight, my 2 great aunts, my grandma, his cousin, none of them are any better than the cousin that set the dinner up and excluded us b/c they don't say anything or even protest going b/c the family isn't invited.

honestly? i wouldn't go anyway the cousin that set up the dinner called us when dd was about to be baptised and that week before left a nasty voice mail that he can't come b/c his daughter's hubby will be there - I believe the direct quote was that bald bastard - and that his daughter and his son in law are messing with his son and that doesn't fly with me. or something more vulgar than that. It was rude, mean and i didn't give a rats ass WHY he wasn't coming, just that he wasn't was enough info for me. He has 3 kids, doesn't talk to the two girls b/c he only fought for his son in the divorce to the first wife (he has since married 3 more times, wife 2 and 4 were the same)

but i feel horrible for my dad. he may not be the most outgoing emotional supportive person i have ever met, but he has NEVER let me down and has always been there for me. his other two cousins are only children and well, they act like it. but i feel bad for him b/c somewhere along the line, they hate my dad and no one can figure out why. jealousy is the only reason why we can even think they would act like that, but who knows.

this whole situation will make it VERY hard for me to be nice to my grandma tomorrow while she drives 2 hours with me up to the cabin.

nice.
