Let The Journey Begin
Well, after much coaxing my daughter came home. (she was the one doing the coaxing) She has been home for a week now. Seems all the promises she made of improving her attitude and pulling her weight around the house were just talk. Why am I not surprised? My husband is angry and throws it in my face every opportunity he gets. I am trying the best I can but sometimes there is just so much on my plate I cant do it all.
So far my life has been chaotic this year. Along with all the stuff from my daughter, my best friend left her boyfriend and came out to stay with me along with her 4 children. I couldn't have been more thrilled. I hadn't seen her in two years and missed her dearly. The plan initially was that she was moving here and going to stay in town. I really enjoyed having her here, I wasnt lonely at all and always had someone to talk to. She is a sister to me and I love her dearly. She however did choose to go back and make another attempt with her boyfriend. I am sad that she isn't here anymore, but I wish her all the best and know I will see her again soon as she is making plans to visit this summer.
My husband quit his job. I support him fully in this as there was so very unpleasant things going on at his place of employment. Being in the aircraft business, everything he did affected alot of people, and when the higher ups were asking him to do things that were not legal or safe, that put alot of pressure on him. Amazingly enough, he has been offered a number of jobs since quitting. He however is unsure if he wants to continue in that line of work. I am confident that we will get through this and everything will be ok.
My daughter had her first OB visit. She is 8 weeks along and due on Aug 23, just in time for her sweet 16. "Happy Birthday, here's your crib" I am not in shock anymore and I have accepted the whole situation. I know that this event will change her life drastically and she will grow up whether she wants to or not. On the dark side of this, if I have another child to raise, I won't give it a second thought. My daughter has no plans of ever returning to see her father. She is so angry. I don't blame her as he told her she didn't have a choice of returning home unless it was without the baby. He has been making every effort to get her child.
So that is the scoop with me!
