glitter-graphics.comI'm up early for the first time in a week or so. I had trouble sleeping last night even though I was lucky enough to have my "love tank" filled after feeling rather empty for a couple of days. Right before it was time for G to get up, I fell off to a good sleep. But I still got up before he left and I made him some sandwiches to take to work.
Marissa is going to work with my sister this morning at the dog kennel. She loves it and I guess she's doing a great job. It's rather hard to believe because she is anything but a worker at home, but realistically I know that it's because her momma (me) takes care of her kids a lil too well somtimes and doesn't make them do a heck of a lot. Once in a while I'll get on a kick and get tired of their room or their constant dropping of garbage and dirty dishes. Then I'll start demanding some help, but I guess "Service deeds" is my primary way of showing love (There's that book Five Love Languages creeping in to my blog again).
After lunch today, my mom is taking all three kids (G's son too) to some cavern up north for the day. They'll have a good time. Mom gets 4 free passes to this whole list of area attractions as part of her "perks" to her summer job here. Last week she took them to Fort William Henry. She's still having dad call here for her though rather than talk to me. She had called me once, but apparently she didn't think I responded properly or whatever because she's gone back to avoiding me. I'm okay with it though because I know it's nothing I did and that this is really her issue. I also know that her and I have had communication and relationship issues for years and I've always handled it the same way which left me with angst and sadness. I feel at peace now.
I do need to call my Gram though. I emailed her again and she's still having problems. Her hand where they found the Cancer is infected again and she's been real dizzy. They are sending her to have her arteries checked for blockages. This has been an awful rough Summer in the area of health for my family.
The past two days I've had a free newspaper on the porch when I woke up (must be a free trial or something). I think it's God's way of reminding me that I need to be looking for a job!

Some people just get along best by not always getting along. It somehow interrupts the flow of friendship and enjoyment, but it never dampens the love between them. So many people have to accept that it's ok to agreeing that they disagree so that they can just move on and past things. Accepting ourselves and other people's ways (as long as they're not totally out of line, if you know what I mean) is the best way to accomplish peace and harmony in any relationship.
