Moving on now

Living back home with mom and dad now, there are so many good reasons to be living with your parents again after 11 years, but they are overshadowed by all those reasons I couldn't wait to move out. I know the feelings are mutual from myself and my parents, not only have I destroyed their house with all the crap I thought I needed to keep with me and not put in storage but I brought two kids with me. Grandma and grandpa LOVE their grandkids, but living with them is another thing altogether. I am very grateful to have my parents around right now to help with this transition into single mom life, and any minute now I am going to figure out what to do about my future living arangements.

And now the house is sold. I think the saying goes, "Be careful what you wish for, you might just get it." I didn't realize that selling my house would make me feel so terrible. I guess part of it is accepting that my marriage is over and actually moving on with my life and the other part is crap, now I have a ton of stuff to do, including all of the really hard parts that I have been putting off like divorce papers and custody and packing. Well let's hope this is a quick year because I am hoping to be doing so much better next year.

The house is for sale

It's a sad day here as my house is officially for sale. It's still hard to say it without tears. It's been a long journey to this point and unfortunately it has to end this way. Alcoholism can and will destroy your life. It's such a hard thing to beat and too bad for my kids we just couldn't win.

Spring is time for something new. Right?

Well, I'm still waiting for my something new. I have been tending my garden which is very therapeutic and it is starting to grow, if I can only keep that dog from digging everything up. I have been a very bad blogger and I am trying to get better, it took me awhile to just login. I have had a terrible cold the last two days and I have been staring at my computer and pretending to work. But I promise to be a better blogger from here on out, if not just to get back into taking pictures and actually getting them off the memory stick. Check back soon, I promise to update again soon.
