Sums it up pretty well

When I'm Gone
by 3 Doors Down

There's another world inside of me
That you may never see
There's secrets in this life
That I can't hide
Somewhere in this darkness
There's a light that I can 't find
Maybe its too far away...
Maybe I'm just blind..


Maybe I'm just blind...

[chorus]
So hold me when I'm here
Love me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
And love me when I'm gone
Everything I am
And everything you need
I'll also be be the one
You wanted me to be
I'll never let you down
Even if I could
I'd give up everything
If only for your good
So hold me when I'm here
Love me when I'm wrong
You can hold me when I'm scared
You won't always be there
So love me when I'm gone
[end chorus]

Love me when I'm gone
When your education x-ray
Can not see under my skin
I won't tell you a damn thing
That I could not tell my friends
Roaming through this darkness
I'm alive but I'm alone
Part of me is fighting this
But part of me is gone

[chorus]

Maybe I'm just blind

[chorus]

Love me when I'm gone

Love me when I'm gone
When I'm gone
When I'm gone
When I'm gone

aarrrggggg

Another day gone. Well finally got the alternator changed on the car, after it left me stranded yet again this morning. This time was at the gas station. On a Monday morning do you think anyone would give me a boost. Nope not a soul, but they would comment on how it sucks to be stuck. Ya nice people hope you relize what goes around comes around! At any rate CAA gets there and gives me a boost. Great in the mean time while waiting the guy in the store was super nice, bought me a coffee. We chatted about his wanting to be a fireman, I encouraged him and gave him a few contacts of friends. We chatted about the value of first aid training and the fact that I am a paramedic. Nice kid I hope that he has good luck in his future, not too many nice people like that out there anymore. So thanks :D. Cost me $185 to fix the car, just for the part, thank you Dave for fixing it so fast for me when I am sure you had better things to do. Dave is a gem, fixs things for me without question or money and usually right away. Hell if I don't have the cash for the part he has paid for things and not wanted pay back. Can't ask for more than that. Good to feel that you know somethings are taken care of and it isn't a huge stresser.

On the other hand the cash for the part today totally wiped out what little savings I had. Flat broke, not two pennies to rub together. Sucks. Blew a rant in my workout log about the ex and child support issues. That sucks too. Going on 4 years now of being free from that hell, too bad I still have to be connected, to bad he is an irresponsible git. Some people never grow up (he's 43 or 44) but oh well at least he has all his toys and goodies. Don't get me wrong my kids don't suffer for his lack of paying (ok well a little as no skating again this year because I can't afford the skates, and littel stuff like that) but I have nothing left of value to pawn. Someday things will be ok again and I will be able to do things alone and not worry bout money shit so much. Work has been super slow so that has made a huge impact, but damnit $200 a month for two kids would really help out right now and it wouldn't hurt anything more than his ability to party for a day or two. Alas its my own fault, I put myself right where I am. Stupid jerk I am.

Another funny thing hahaha. A guy that I have been chatting with that had wanted to get to know me more, get together etc.... yep well story of my life he is trying to get back with his wife. Funnier still he says his feelings for me haven't changed. Thanks try and say nice things to me makes me cry because I do deserve to be treated good! Just not by someone else's husband. Somewhere out there there is someone that would love what I have to offer and thats that. I won't have to take second place or worry that there is someone lurking around the corner that is going to steal them away. Somewhere. I hate somewhere and I am fucking depressed! So it hurt and what do I say ' it hurt but its ok, its all good, I understand'. Haha even funnier I really do understand, I totally think right now he is doing the right thing for himself and that I am being a little selfish. I am not angry with him and I encourage him to do whatever it takes to make it work and I really hope it turns out for the best. It just sucks when you get slammed into the ground yet again. So time to forget that, bam its gone, time to move forward be his friend and support his choices and support him when he needs it. I can do that, still really like him but I can put that aside. Ok done. Deep breath tomorrow is another day and its going to be awesome!

Fun Times!! NOT!

Wednesday! Hump day, Blah!! Well the boys are feeling 100% better and I'm well on my way there too. I finish the meds on Friday and then I should be good to go. I can't wait, I really want to get back into the gym. I need it. My energy levels are so much better when I get a good workout in. The next phase of training is for strength , we'll see how my body responds to the new workout. I have been looking it over quite a bit and I really think this workout will do me good. So I have a plan and I have the dedication and drive, its forward ho now. This makes me happy, I like having a solid goal to work toward.

One another note I have to try to figure out how to approach the ex on the boys tv habits when they are at his house. This should be tons of fun! I just don't think that he gets that a 4 and 6 yr old should not watch movies like alien vs predator. Nor does he get that he should not tell tehm he has seen aliens and their spaceship. My oldest is having huge troubles going to sleep now. 11pm every night since he has come home. What 6 yr old is up til 11pm. So now I have to figure out how to get him to sleep earlier so that when school is back in on monday he will be okay. Fun times. Makes me so sad, poor kid.

New Year

Wow its a new year already! The rest of 2006 pretty much slammed me and hence I did not keep up with my blogging. So time to start fresh.

New Year's celebrations for me were very tame. I watched CSI and not too much more. It was nice and just what I needed. So for me it was the perfect evening. I have been sick the last couple days or maybe more it is all kind of a fog. I got hit hard with a bad throat infection, high fever, and all the lovely crap that goes with it. Spent 4 hours in the ER, not fun. When will people learn to cough etc into a damn kleenex? Thankfully a smart Dr. the just can on shift demanded teh nurses start handing out masks to all those pts coughing. He was appalled that this wasn't already done as they were coming in. I agree with him! Heck if you are sick your immune system is already shot, you certainly don't want to be exposed to more crappy illnesses. I was in there for a throat problem, I wasn't coughing, sneezing, puking, hacking, my nose wasn't running and all the other crap people were doing. Damn people I don't want what you have on top of what I have so please cover it up! I think maybe people are just really stupid and inconsiderate when it comes to this stuff. Kind of like the parents that send their sick kids to school (to infect everyone else) because they cannot be bothered to find alternate care or stay home. Thanks to those parents I am out $160 for meds and such and have had one or the other of my boys sick for the last month. Thanks to those parents my children had a crappy Christmas because one spent it unable to lift his head more than a few inches off his pillow, the other was just tired and felt crappy.

Ok rant done. Big smiles and time to start a fresh slate this year. This year I wlill continue to build on some to the things that I accomplished last year and try to continue with some unfinished business. There will be new endevors and tons more to see and make memories with and for. So cheers and Happy New Year to all.
