Me, Myself and Mommy

SoOOooo. Where should I begin? Hmmm…
OK.
As you know the shower in our master bathroom was broken. For some reason the water wasn’t getting hot. The sink worked just fine but not the shower. We were showering at “the club” (aka the gym, but we have to call it “the club” because Moanna said so) every time we [...]

I have to apologize for being so pissy on Monday. It was a series of unfortunate events on top of hormones, and when the two mixed together it created a very unstable chemical bomb. The situation has been defused. Tuesday my new bathing suit arrived. It’s a tankini with boy-short bottoms so I no longer have to shave every single day, giving myself the worst razor burn known to man kind. As of yesterday afternoon, the internet had been activated; we now have super-fast internet. Yesterday evening someone finally came to fix the fridge. When I went to bed last night the temperature was still in the “danger zone” so I was a little irritated. However, I am happy to report that when I woke up this morning and got a glass of water it was ice cold – maybe too cold. We are still waiting on our shower to be fixed, but with those other issues resolved I am no longer a ticking bomb.

Also, I have new toys! Maybe their tools? I’m not sure, guess it depends on your perspective as to what qualifies as a tool.

One of the fears I had when I found out we were moving so far from the people I knew and loved was the fear of being alone, the fear of loneliness. I don’t do isolation well, and it makes me feel very vulnerable. While I deeply enjoy and crave, require even, having time to myself, long term aloneness becomes a scary place for me. When I am alone for too long, and have run out of ways to entertain myself I get bored and my thoughts drift to the places that I bury deep inside of me where no one can find them, including myself.

I swear, if I didn’t go to yoga this morning I would be going Jack Bauer on people right now! I’m ready to pick someone up by the collar, slam them against the wall and menacingly whisper, “If you do not do exactly what I tell you to do, I will see to it that [...]
