Change for the good

  • Hey guys. Thanks for your overwhelming positive responses from my last blog. Kimmie, Cathy, Sandi, and Davina y'all are great friends. I feel so much better today. Like I posted in my last blog comment, I've decided the best thing right now is to just take myself out of the situation. I'm not totally out of their lives, but I no longer have to take my dad to all of his doctor appointments, grocery shop for them, and run all over the place. If dad needs to go somewhere further away, like Palo Alto that's fine. I'll take him. For now, I need space and sleep. I'm still monitoring things, just from afar. My nerves can't take much of the yelling I've had to do, or the constant phone calls. I just need peace and quiet.
  • Only possible negative change out of all this is not suckering free groceries from Dad. Haha. Yeah I guess I was spoiled because I ran all his errands for him and never asked for gas, just to help out with food costs. Now I'm doing that on my own. I'm like the other 99.9% of adults and paying my own way. It makes sense though. I just have to get used to budgeting and since I've been trying to eat healthy food it costs a bit more. I have the magical power of coupons and the ability to visit three stores if need be to get the best bargains. I'll still finish shopping much faster than if Michelle were with me. That broad takes forever. Yeah so no biggie, just an adjustment slightly made on my pocketbook. Shoulda thought of that before purchasing my laptop. Oh well. Good thing I'm working lots of overtime as of late.
  • Yeah so that's about it. Thanks for reading my rambling, friends.
