What's new? I went to a friend's birthday gathering at Niecie's this past weekend and it was excellent! The food was great! I had Catfish there and it was soooo good. Not that I am picky or anything like that because I am not in anyway. I like most of anything as far as food! But I am picky about fish, it's got to be good, real good. Houston's and Niecie's here in KC do it right! The Mahi Mahi fish sandwich is the best at Houston's on the Plaza and the Catfish is it at Niecie's! Well, I like it so much we are going for my birthday on Saturday, the 11th! I hope everyone else likes it as much as I do.
Well, my ex informs me he has to go back to a rehab - phew! Thank God! He was worried about jail time, but nope, I said that ain't happening! You NEVER go to jail - ever! Well, all that worrying I did a couple of weeks ago was all for nothing(and I knew that then, but, you know!) so I am glad that is over. Actually, it was over later that evening that I started freaking out, thanks to the time spent by a couple of friends that night (Thx J & F! U guys don't know how much I appreciate u!). And a house full of college girls! My daughter had some friends in from Columbia, MO that night. It was like old times when my house was always full of girls, kids. I loved it then. And I still love it now! I miss those times. Wish I had more money to host the whole lot many times but I don't. It was nice for the short time they were there. Good to see them all again and spend a little time with them too - I miss all you girls! Or rather, Ladies!
Sashi has one more month, ok almost two, to go on her pregnancy. We're gonna have a boy! That freaks me out too. Never raised a boy and not sure I want to, I think he may give me a heart attack just from the bumps and the dings he will endure. And that is just the beginning. I really hope the maternal instincts kick in when the baby comes, cause I sure don't feel 'em! I can SO WAIT for this grand baby to come! Too bad Mama will miss it - but I guess she really won't miss it, huh?
Mia and I butted heads this week. She has one chore and though we all don't do any of our duties very well, I get a pretty bad attitude and even less cooperation out of Mia. Who knows why, maybe since she's been out on her own for a short time at college, but it just showed a lot the other day and I had to say something about it. Well, she disappeared for the night and I hope blew off some steam. I did. I called up my sis and just released it. She had a story about one of her friends who has the same problem. I think my lieniancy with Mia is the culprit and trying to change things now is really way too late! But she got away for a while and I hung on to it all day until I spoke with my sister, then I felt better. I was able to release it! I was once again speaking as if it was a fact and not just a feeling!!!! So I recognized that and that is when I called my sister. So I could vent and let it go! Then the day went back to normal. Mia called, we chatted or kinda vented to one another for a few minutes, I told her what I needed, what we would try, and left it at that. We are going to switch around chores and see if that works better, but if not, then we switch back or try something else. Either way, something has to change. And I have an amend i need to make to her too, since I was upset, I had eaten her leftovers she came home looking for after work....and didn't care. The minute she said something about it, gave me the opportunity I was waiting for to confront her. So, even though I replaced it with someone else's help (since I am SO poor at the moment), I still need to make amends to her. And as yet, she hasn't made it home...so that's later!!!!!
This week has been pretty darn good. I am blessed but I do need to keep reminding myself who lives inside of me and keeps me going and who I can trust to lead me on my path! That is definately where the thought of the amends came from! Okay Lord! Okay! I know you are just molding me to be what you know I can be...but it ain't easy. As a matter of fact, I am getting lots of dings!!!! Hard head maybe? LOL! Even though things aren't right and seem so bad, you are still in control.

This CD is excellent by the way! This is my uplifting music! If I haven't already shared...and I think I have. So I guess I am really trying to impress upon you how much I love this music! It is helping me stay focused on God along with my Al-Anon & CodA literature. A Joyce Meyer devotional and my church's quarterly devotional which is recently working itself back into my daily readings! All these things keep me grounded!
Didn't make it to the Wed night meeting but just hung out with Sashi. I've been away from home so much that I just didn't want to go anywhere and it is frickin' COLD outside!!!! Still, got out for a short minute so she could go to the store. Poor baby, she always stays in the house, just barely starting to get out now, but still not much. Then when the baby comes who knows. She hasn't been a real homebody till now...
Okay, I think I've caught you up to today! This weekend is my birthday and I am looking for something to do since most of my friends are either working, or have grandbabies or kids, or whatever the case may be are busy! Wah! Well, there's always another time too, I can do something later! So I am still hoping! But I am having a Quake 4 party Friday night ( http://www.quake4game.com/ ) with my sisters after the meeting! So I can blow up some stuff!!! Blow off some steam I mean, yeah...Adios!!!!
