I cannot even begin to fathom what this must be like for them. <br /><br />Thanks to lack of sleep (and the inability to get anywhere for about a week) my house is clean still. The yard is beginning to look awesome!Susannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14026448020721803270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7708559980573648047.post-26295552990274886042009-09-02T21:16:36.007-07:002009-09-02T21:16:36.007-07:00Achievements today?

...Achievements today? Few, at least cleaning-wise.<br /><br />I did take the kids to the park for a picnic and some playtime, took recycling to the recycle center, dropped off some things at Salvation Army, stopped at. . .ahem. . .wal mart (please don't hit me)<br /><br />At home I did some laundry, never ending dishes, planted some crocus bulbs, cleaned at the downstairs bath (renovation central-YES, STILL!) And now I'm going to bed for fear of getting sick.

Holy shit Batman. First of all, we are sitting atop a heap of laundry higher than Mt. Vesuvius. Apparently in my scurrying about town, Todd assembled the most random assortment of shit (throw pillows, shoes, things formerly known as foam, I dunno, a watermelon) and decided they all needed to be washed. Together. Mind you, he's an excellent housewife, but sometimes reaches a little beyond his familiar realm I try to suppress my inner Kate Gosselin and fix it. The pillows, previously square, are much smaller circles, significantly wet on the inside, while burn-your-effing-skin-off on the outside. Yea.<br /><br />I scraped the top layer of Vesuvius off and got in the washer, shook out the bath mats, <i>into</i> the tub and will use Ajax and a sponge when I shower in like 47 years. Today is all about shortcuts and making the kids do everything. Dishes are done, floor mopped, our camp-out mostly cleaned up, just need to fold laundry and find something to obsess over.<br /><br />Please post and let us know what you did today. We ought to keep our momentum. Our priorities have certainly been underlined in super fat Sharpie, but we can chug along, so let's.Cheyennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14330617564728468671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7708559980573648047.post-59200297851330648882009-09-02T11:10:47.357-07:002009-09-02T11:10:47.357-07:00Dawna-Fucking the rest is sheer brilliance, and I ...Dawna-Fucking the rest is sheer brilliance, and I love you for saying that, as would Debe. Thank you for understanding her need for privacy, as some in our community are incredulous that she would have one close friend (moi) acting as her liaison while grieving privately. As if it's a snub. I do not understand people. Debe is strong, in spite of her grief, and she is coherent and talking and processing and even made a joke. Our community has come out for her family, and I'm pretty sure she would support us all cleaning up our shit holes in her honour now.Cheyennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14330617564728468671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7708559980573648047.post-3954872710617653142009-09-02T10:43:32.849-07:002009-09-02T10:43:32.849-07:00When life pulls the rug out from under you, digest...When life pulls the rug out from under you, digest what happens, change what you can, and fuck the rest.<br /><br />Both of my m/c's were fairly early on. Of course I can not imagine what it would be like to really be in love with this tiny life and never get to meet that person.. . . . Time really does heal. <br /><br />I completely undersand Debe not wanting people contacting her. Sometimes it's easiest to move on without having the pain constantly dredged up an in your face.<br /><br />I will send them all of the positive energy I can in their time of need.Dawnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16698551325615155691noreply@blogger.com
