Rolla - Coasta

That's exactly what the last couple of days has been...an emotional rollercoaster. Like a great big rollercoaster with loop-de-loops, and a 40,000 story drop, and dark tunnels, and let's make it a wooden one so it's even scarier. On Sunday, when JC came over...I was ok after he left...I said something really dumb like and over dramatic like, "I don't know why you think it should be so easy for me to just let you walk out of my life." And he just responded by saying, "No one said it would be easy for either of us." And with that he shut the door. And Good Grief! this sounds like a scene out of the life sucking Lifetime movies, but he closed the door, and I sat on the floor right where I had been standing and sobbed. And then, I didn't cry again for the rest of the night. Yesterday, I didn't cry all day. I woke up this morning and felt depressed, but still no crying. However, I did allow myself to sleep and spend the whole day in bed, but still no crying. And then I was driving to the grocery store to pick up my Vicodin (which I think I'm addicted to), and Gabby was in the car with me, and I just seriously broke down. And I didn't know what to say to my baby who kept asking me what was wrong. All I could tell her was that I was really, really sad, but it was okay.

He's everywhere, ya know. When I'm watching to TV, or some stupid song on the radio, or just always there in my head. Even yesterday...I didn't cry and felt resonably good, but he was still there in the back of my head. I used to be a pretty obsessive person...allowing myself to dwell and dwell and dwell, and letting myself give into things like the little voice that says, "Call him, call him, call him." But I haven't been doing that. When the Burger King commercial for the Star Wars watches comes on, I change the channel instead of dwelling, when one of our favorite songs comes on the radio, I change it. When I go to MySpace and go to people's sites that have pictures of him on them, I divert my eyes. I've been trying. Really, really trying. Trying more than I have ever tried in the past.

I was wondering when I was driving in my car if I would always feel this way. I mean even when I move on will I have moments where I think about him and just break down? And then I kind of counted back and realized that exactly two weeks ago tonight, we were arguing, and he was asking me how we could compromise and make things better, and in a couple of hours from now, two weeks ago, he was telling me that he just didn't feel the same anymore.

I'm tired of breaking down. I just want another chance. And I just want to hear him laugh...and I want to curl up in his arms to go to sleep. I want to wrestle with him, and lay on the couch with him while he reads and runs his fingers through my hair so I can take a nap...and those things just are never going to happen again. Maybe...with someone else...at some point...but never again with JC. I want the feeling that I had yesterday to come back. Where I felt semi-okay...I felt like I was going to make it...

I want to be able to post a happy blog about going out and the time we spent together, and I want, now that I feel physically better and mentally more stable without my tonsils, I want to show him that I'm still the same person that he met, and not the really, really depressed girl that I became when I got sick. Except now, I guess I'm still depressed...LOL.

I didn't know I was THIS upset tonight. That's what happens whenever I allow myself to just let it out though. I tried and tried and tried today to just keep pushing all this stuff down and into the back of my head...I could feel it coming on, and I tried to supress it, and then it just hit me like being punched in the stomach.

I miss him...I miss us...

Despite all your emotions, how are you feeling physically? Has your little girl been cheering you up a little??? You'll feel better soon, especially when you take your trip to DC!!!! Woo HOO!!!! Party time, right?
Jacq - physically I guess I'm ok. My throat still bothers me a lot. I have to eat soooo slowly when I'm starving and just want to gulp things down! I haven't allowed myself to be cheered up by Gabby because I'm just in such a rotten mood these days. I should try a little harder...two days and counting till I'm on that plane!!!

Steph - glad to have you! I feel a little sorry for you putting up with reading about my depressing life, but thanks! And thanks for the advice. I can't wait till I get back in the gym!

Happy Freakin' New Year

Written January 1, 2021, when I tried to start a Wordpress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. 2020 and I had a love/hate relationship. I hated seeing what was happening to others and the world. I dealt with my fair share of struggles, but mostly, I think I was the closest to contentment that I've ever been. 1. I LOVED working from home MOMO working from home 2. I felt closer to my family 3. I didn't mind the slower pace and less to do 4. I was able to have a better work/life balance 5. I felt more productive at home and at work 6. I did a couple of home projects - helped my parents landscape my front yard, gave my bedroom a makeover with my sister, and reorganized my pantry with her Before After Pantry Makeover Bedroom Makeover 7. I spent the best summer with my son and dogs at my sister'shouse - laughing, crying, painting rocks, getting to know my fur nieces and nephews (Wall-E, Maggie, Leeloo, and funny, little, Peyton who we lost in...

FYI

Just so you know...my computer is sitting here, on the floor, next to me...at my parent's house!!! Woo Hoo! I've taken the first step in getting it fixed...but alas, there it sits...I'm not the only slacker in the family! Also, I turn 30 in less than 20 days...

End of Summer

Who knew that at 28 years of age I would be writing a post about how I spent my summer. Don't people usually stop talking about their summers after a certain age? Say like, 22? It probably wouldn't be such a big deal to me if I wasn't still a student who doesn't haven't to have a "career" year round. Well, here it is . . . the end of summer. I go back to work on Monday, and school starts on Wednesday. My days of sleeping in, going out, etc are over. I still get every weekend off when Gabby goes to her dad's, but we'll still be a lot more "scheduled" around here. End of summers when I was younger always felt weird because you were sad about the summer being over, but a little excited about going back to school, shopping for school supplies and clothes, thinking about if there'd be a new cute guy in class, getting to see your friends everyday. I have a whole section in my memory that is filed under "Summer". It's my favori...
