wine, whine, wine

To blog is an interesting thing for me.  Because now that it has become just a stream of consciousness, there are many categories I could hit on.  Family life, girlfriends, photography/art, personal struggles or victories and then there is the plain ol' bullshit.

I keep thinking that I should focus this thing...but that seems wrong since I use this to sort of work things out and I'm more than any one of those categories.  I'm all of it.  AND THEN there are so many things that I CAN'T say here...protecting the privacy of many.  Hate to get anybody in trouble with the law.

So, as narcissistic as it seems, I just stick to me.  What I'm thinking, sorting, celebrating or mourning.  

I've spent the last week ticking things off the list I call, "Stuff that got ignored while I was so happy in Art Camp."  Its a hefty list.  I'm overwhelmed by it so I've committed to knocking off one a day.  I don't enjoy the task...not a bit...but I feel better about myself when I'm done.

The kids know that I"m sad about Donnor leaving.  The other day, Aaron came in and put his arm around me (I was at my desk) and he asked how I was doing.  At the time I was reading a note from one of the Sistahs and he saw it on the computer screen and he said, "Hey, that's from Lisa".  I read it to him and as I was reading her heartwarming words of encouragement I started to cry.  When I finished and I looked up at him, his eyes were full of tears and he said, "I don't know why I'M CRYING...just seems like when you cry that I should too."

The mouths of babes.
