It is really the gift that keeps on giving, this divorce thing. I can't think of anything outside my Mom taking the trip to Wonderland that isn't directly because of it. I finally got the Qdro paper filed, I think anyways-I may have done something wrong before handing it in. So Matt had to meet me there to also sign, and in all his crazy out of control bearded glory, was needing me to also sign a paper for him down in parking lot. He stated that it was so he could take money from Jc's college...

I need to blog so badly, for my own sanity, however, it is so daunting. There is so much that I am scared about, upset about, mad and hurt about, worried about, and then the list of tasks I need to do seems to keep growing with me not accomplishing a single one completely, and I feel like the sun comes up every day for the sole purpose of watching what kinda ****ed up news I'm going to get today, or what new kick in the gut life is going to throw at me. It's brutal, and I hate even talking to...

We planned a day family trip 4hrs drive away. To save money, I decided to wake up super early in the morning, drive to the airport (45 min away), pick up rental van, come back home, pick up rest of the crew & drive the 4 hours to our destination. To meet our goal, we had to be up/out by 6:30am, which doesn't seem like a big deal to most people but for me this was a HUGE challenge. Normally I wake up at 8:30am and 7:30 is a DRAG. But to my surprise I was up and out exactly as planned. I impressed...

I'm talking about the politicians I see on TV. You're probably seeing the same type in your state. Always wearing a flannel or blue work shirt and maybe a baseball cap, like they just hopped off a tractor. You won't see them wearing that kind of stuff again until next election, it will be expensive taxpayer paid suits until then. If they're not busy accusing their opponent of every crime under the sun, they are bragging about themselves:
" I was in the army for 4 years "
