And so it goes...

So....I'm having a bad effin' day....I'm realizing that in the midst of my divorce the entire house is my problem...cleaning, maintenance, lawn care, etc. Zero fun. Also realizing that my kids aren't used to pitching in....One teen is living in Chicago this summer and working -- and I miss him dearly -- , one is just off of the high of 8th grade graduation and deserves to have a bit of fun....the others? NIne and under and while capable of help...still young.

So here I sit...single and handling it. And while I'm okay with that...it's still a bitch. After 23 years of "bliss" (ha....) I find myself handling life alone. The up side? LB has been team Nanner....so many of my friends have had my back....some are long term great friends who I knew would be there...some were people I cared about and who cared for me and stepped it up and had my back...some were folks that I reconnected with and and have made my transition easier and more pleasant than I can say...and some were people who I never even realized gave a damn...and they proved their love to me nonetheless..

My point is that no matter where you go...no matter the your circumstance...always realize that things could be worse....that things will get better and that friends will come and go....It all works out in the end, one way or another....I've been blessed and am blessed....

Nonetheless...I will still search out the oddness in Michigan City and Long Beach...and will get on with the funny....freak shows, inbreds and all sorts of oddness will be reported on tomorrow.....but until then, thanks for the love....I needed it today. And just needed to say it...
