Home from my half day. I picked Lindsay up from school so they wouldn't send her home on the wrong bus. Also, I had to take her to get her Tdap shot. Got another key made to the house.
I ran into Alexanders English teacher from last year! From his last school! She grabbed me and she had seen him by chance in the hall and pulled up his record. She is switching his schedule around so he will be in the gifted program. They had not done that.
Another child from the gifted program goes to this school, so he already knows someone.
Lindsay is in a class with Cs daughter...YAY! She said m asked me if I would go to her house for a sleep over...OMG
never invited to anything in her life, never able to invite anyone to anything ever in her life. Ate lunch with m and Ms friend. Normally she eats in seclusion. YAY!
I am so tired. I am not afraid at night in this house. Alone, without him. I have not slept with him in so long, and even when we were in the same bed, I slept so far to the edge, I could not tell he was there.
I woke up before the alarm today. Everything went smoothly, except for Lindsays school bus issue.... transportation knows i have them on speed dial...LOL.
At night, I go around down stairs and turn off all the lights, turn on the front and back porch lights, lock the doors, and head up the stairs. This house is our home, so warm and welcoming...with all of the boxes everywhere, but we are making progress.
I get to the top of the stairs, and I am just supposed to be here. For me, a strange feeling, one i will have to get used to. But after being in the house of chimes, or even just being here looking around, or just bringing a few things over...then going to the house of schackles and chains....at that place....it feels empty and evil. I come here and I am embraced.
I will have to get used to that. I am slowly. I think the kids are taking naps. They went to bed so late last night. Stretching the last bit of summer as far as they could. I felt bad, because we were moving, and they had to work.
I am so happy, that Alexanders teacher from his old school is there...you just don't know. he was so anxious about today, and it wasn't so bad. He worries, like me.
Lindsay...today was great for her. I could tell, even though she had to get a shot!
I did not go to therapy today. I would have run the risk of the bus taking Lindsay to Jims house. Even though I talked to a woman this morning about it all, in person....as well as did the same thing sev weeks ago...the info still had not been changed or added.
Jim said my couch is in the carport. I have asked my cousin they can help...I am thinking doubtful. I asked T at work if her dh can help, will see what happens there...
I have noticed some people I have never seen before...Hello!!

Isn't it amazing....
Oh my how things change and it may not seem so, but I think to us it happened quickly. But you are through the worst of the pain, so you can concentrate on being HAPPY!! That word is in your vocabulary now. How awsome is that??
