This Sucks!

Tough day. Not only do I have to drive a few hours back home, I have to break some bad news to my DH. I learned Tuesday that my daughter is expecting AGAIN. Mind you our grand daughter is barely 10 months. The daughter is 14 weeks along.
The other grandmother thinks this is the greatest thing. Hmmm, her son is unemployed and living with her. My daughter is working PT going to school at nights and living at home with me. How is this a good thing? We can’t possibly fit another baby in the bedroom where they’re staying. (They’re sharing a room with my 12 year old). There just isn’t room for another person no matter how small.
So not only to I have to rehash fresh wounds I have to inform the daughter that she needs to get her butt in gear along with the baby’s father and find a place to live. Oh I’m so not looking forward to today. In all honesty my daughter knows this was a temporary situation and that T needs a room of her own. It’s the other half that needs a good kick in the ass.
I’ll trade places with ANYONE out there! LOL
And if I wasn’t cranky enough I’m not writing. That makes me more unbearable. I haven’t written anything in ten days. I need to get back in action and write.

I'm Here!

I made it! I traveled thru all sorts of weather yesterday. What is normally a 2 ½ hour drive lasted almost four. It wasn’t until I hit NY that driving became unbearable. I wasn’t over the boarder five minutes and the roads were unplowed and the snow was coming down heavy. For the next twenty minutes I cursed about no plows on the roads. Then I was blessed with three plows in front of me. Be careful what you wish for. I was going along at a decent speed until they showed up. I had to drive 10mph behind them. An hour later I arrived at my mom’s house.
I spent the afternoon with a friend. We’ve been friends for over twenty-five years, but don’t see each other often. So I spent the day at her place reminiscing over old photos of us. I’ll tell you the summer of ’03 was a fun time for us. :o) We had a wild summer traveling all over.
Today I’m going to spend some time with my cousin. We’re going to dinner to catch up on the last three years. We didn’t get to spend much time together over the weekend and I want to hear all about how he’s been.

Off Kilter

My daughter and her family arrived in GA safely.
My son came home last night. It seems things just aren't working out with the gf. So I had to give up my writing space so he could sleep in his old room. I felt a little dejected this morning as I stood in the kitchen wondering where I'd write. Mind you it was four in the morning. As I looked at the kitchen table I knew I couldn't spend two hours sitting in a hard chair. I decided on the sunroom. I fired up the heaters, grabbed a cup of coffee and climbed into a recliner.
The words didn't flow as easily as they normally do. I was distracted by the outside noises. Finally I was able to block them out and found a rhythm. Alas, I reached my word count and then some.
In the process I had to write a blog for tomorrow because I'm headed out of town.
Today's the day we find out what we're having. Part of me doesn't want to know, but the realistic part of me knows I have to. You just can't buy neutral things like you could twenty years ago. Everything is either pink or blue.
