Why?

Me-I am sorry but after SE showing up and not even being allowed to speak I was not in the mood to meet someone new. Who was that guy anyway is he a relative of yours?
Y-I gave the two of them my bare minimum when it came to hospitality. And what was up with [...]

Almost time to leave…

It’s almost time to leave but I have 15 minutes to burn and no interest in work so I’ll write a post instead. V is keeping Corey this weekend and I am driving down to Charleston tomorrow for a visit and a birthday party oh and my book club meets on Sunday. I am looking [...]

You gave me such a bad time tried to hurt me but now I’ve learned…
Thorn in my side.
You know that’s all you ever were.
A bundle of lies.
You know that’s all that it was worth…
I should have known better
But I trusted you [...]

Raw Deal…

There are men who will read this post and think, huffily, dismissively, that a person of color could write a post very much like this one about white people, about me. That’s absolutely right. So could a lesbian, a gay man, a bisexual, an asexual. So could a trans or intersex person (which hardly makes [...]

The barbershop…

Today was barbershop day but if I had planned better I would have taken the boys a week early to avoid the back to school crowd. Anyway it was really crowded in there today but Corey’s barber always looks out for him. He understands that Corey is only going to tolerate waiting so long. There [...]

Deadbeat…

I have been going back and forth on whether I should take the ex downtown for child support. I have never liked the notion that he is basically being rewarded for being an asshole. He threatened me, emotionally and physically abused me, and my response was to take my sons and run. But the bottom line has [...]

The same old song…

I received the final denial letter from Raleigh. Bleh, bleh, bleh…Autism Services called to ask if they could still use his prior authorization given during the appeal and I am thinking that would be a really bad idea. Technically his authorization is good until his birthday but the denial letter means he wasn’t supposed to [...]

Miles…

I was listening to jazz this morning, drinking my coffee, and enjoying the fact that Corey was fairly calm. When Cam walked in and told me he knew who I was listening to…”that’s Miles Davis, I am going to play like him someday” really Cam you want to be a musician? “yeah I can do [...]

Grudges…

I met my SIL (the ex’s sister) for dinner last night. She wanted to give me the information on their family reunion in September and she also wanted to catch up. She called the night of the funeral to apologize for hubby’s behavior and to assure me she had not changed her mind about being [...]

Spoke to soon?

Well it’s 11:35 Corey is still awake and the more I try to direct him towards bed the more aggressive he becomes. Did I speak to soon? Ugh I really hate the “is the med hurting or helping” phase.
