Some things change and some never do!

Wow! It's been forever since I have blogged! In the words of the Homicide Hunter "My My My" quite a bit has happened since we last spoke!

Here it is long story short

My sons, 23 and 21 have moved into their own home and into stable lives! Yay! Our relationships have greatly improved! They have grown into responsible young adults who I am quite proud of!

My Hubby and I are still plugging along! Still very much in love and still very deeply into each other. Wow! I am even amazed at that one! I want to be with him 24/7! I can definitely say with assurance he is my soul mate!

We are in a great time of our life. Stress has eased up tremendously! And except for those pesky Student Loans, we owe very little debt! YAHOO! We are ready to enter the next phase of our lives. Time for him to pursue his PHD and time for me to retire and write!

Of course there is always something!  And it always begins and ends with an EX!!!!!!

Step daughter turned 18, time for her to graduate. Her mother talks her into waiting a year to graduate. SAY WHAT???? Yep the lazy roach made it so she could keep drawing child support! Step daughter will not turn 19 until next April! Can you even believe the length some custodial parents will go to keep that free money rolling in? Pitiful if you ask me. But not surprising. This winner of a female has spent the biggest part of her life taking and refusing to work. But enough of that!

What's even worse, now that she is of age and 18 the daughter was going to finally come and visit us in our home for a couple weeks this summer. Did it happen?

Of course not! Drama, Drama, and more drama ensued! These two females are so high strung and hysterical by the time all the demanding, screaming, and stamping of feet was done, she wasn't coming because she felt we should come to her town and stay for a weekend so she could get to know us again! Say what? "How Old are you honey?"
You're not 10! In fact she and her mother demanded us! My hubby said Nope! You want to come and be a part of my life, then come. If you don't like it or feel uncomfortable we will be bring you back home whenever you want. They couldn't even agree to that!

So fast forward to about 6 weeks later I of course became close to my step daughter and missed texting and talking with her. I sent a text to her and she replied "Who is this?"

Looks like she removed me from her contacts! Can you say Douchebag? Sorry I sound harsh, but it looks like I got used. Whenever she wanted me to buy her something or wanted something from me, she'd butter me up and I'd send it. Looks like the apple didn't fall far from the tree!

On the bright side of things! I don't have to deal with their shenanigans now! The sad part is that it has broken my precious Husband's heart! But we  move on and he is forming a close relationship with my sons, and I am happy about that!


The next several months I will be working on my health! Kids if you currently smoke, STOP! I spent several years smoking on and off since I was 15. I have now been blessed with COPD! It ain't pretty! I have my good days and my bad days!

These next 6-12 months are going to be spent with a nutritionist and a personal trainer as well as a respiratory therapist! I will get my health back!
