Bad news

So the conversation with my attorney didn't go exactly as I planned today... "You weren't planning on getting re-married any time soon were you? Ok, good... Because I've got some bad news... Are you sitting down? Well because of government cuts the court system is a little backed up... Well no, it used to be 9 months to get assigned a court hearing... it's a little longer... This isn't going to make you happy... Are you sitting down? Ok well turns out the courts backed up about 3 years to get divorce hearings..." :-o I can NOT believe I have to wait another 3 years to get divorced!

Crap my B.R.A.T. Says

Lil'bit: "Mommy, Mia had a baby brother last week and her mommy brought him to school today... I wish I could have a baby sister... But I never will because you don't eat meat"

Me: "What's the fact I'm a vegetarian have to do with anything?"

Lil'bit: "Because that's how you make babes! When a mommy's really really hungry, she eats a whole lot and her stomach gets bigger and bigger... Then all the meat that she ate mushes together in her tummy and it makes a heart and brain and body, and then 18 months later she poops out a baby!"

Crap my B.R.A.T. Says

Lil'Bit: "Mom is today leprechaun day?"
Me: "Yes it's St. Patrick's Day."
Lil'Bit: "Well?"
Me: "Well what?"
Lil'Bit: "Did you see any or catch any?"
Me: "Uh, no."
Lil'Bit: "Aww man! They are so sneaky. But I want to find one and invite it to my birfday party." [a minute later] "Aw never mind, it'd be too hard to make tiny goodie bags... let's just find their gold."

I'm a slacker.

I've been slacking sooooooo bad with my blog posts lately, I apologize... I've just been so busy I haven't had much time. For reals... Let me explain (or make excuses)... First of all, boy is this divorce a lot of work... Like no kidding, this is probably why people pay lawyers thousands and thousands of dollars to do this kinda stuff... It's seriously an insane amount of paperwork and finding random documents that probably haven't seen the light of day in at least half a decade. Secondly, on top of all this divorce paperwork, I am FINALLY in my last semester in school (I'm a full time student if anyone didn't know), and of course, I was stupid, and saved my hardest classes till the end... So I've been struggling with that. To add to all that stress, i've been trying to find a full time job and had absolutely zero luck... Not really sure why; I've had quote a few interviews, but no body's biting... And on top of this all, trying to juggle a kid. It helps a little now that she's back in school from winter break, but boy was that rough, trying to get all this done with a little one running around. I am very, VERY thankful for her teachers and the little break they give me to accomplish all the other daily tasks I have.

"And even if somebody else has it much worse, that doesn’t really change the fact that you have what you have."

"Home wasn’t a set house, or a single town on a map. It was wherever the people who loved you were, whenever you were together. Not a place but a moment, and then another, building on top of each other like bricks to create a solid shelter that you take with you for your entire life, wherever you may go."

— Sarah Dessen, ‘Whatever Happened to Goodbye’

Dating

I don't "get" dating I guess... Maybe it's because i've been out of the loop for so long, I don't know... I had been casually seeing this guy for a couple months... Here and there lunch dates, nothing too serious, just hanging out... Well I went to a wedding with him a week and a half ago and NEVER heard a word out of him after that... I logged onto Facebook this morning only to see that he's changed his "Relationship Status" to "in a Relationship with" ...a girl that wasn't me... So I guess that's the end of that.

"People are always blaming circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them."

Happy Birthday Marine Corps!!!

Two hundred and thirty six years ago today, the United States Marine Corps was born in a tavern in Philadelphia. While that may seem an odd place, those who know Marines understand that it could be no other way.

Marines have served around the world defending their country. Every war, conflict, "police-action" or simple show of force has had Marines leading the way. Today Marines serve around the world in two theaters of war, embassies, ships and even at the White House.

Happy Birthday Marines
