Lessons Learned

I have learned several lessons through divorce.

Nobody is indispensable.

When it comes right down to it, no matter how much you trust someone, the only person you can really count on is yourself.

I am stronger than I thought I was.

I am more intelligent than I thought I was.

Having something and losing it is harder than never having it in the first place.

Being poor sucks but it's survivable.

Self-respect isn't much of a comfort when you're lonely in the deep dark night.

But it is important when your wits return in the bright light of day.

Knowing you're right about something is a luxury for those who have comfortable lives but doesn't amount to beans when you're struggling.

Complacency is dangerous to relationships.

Coulda, shoulda, woulda can haunt you.

People do want to help; sometimes those you least expect.

Hard work is gratifying but it's still hard work.

Being bitter only hurts the bitter person, but it's a hard habit to break.

I am worth 10 of her.

But she is less to blame than the person who broke his promise.

I may never know my contribution to the blame.

There really are no guarantees in life, but those aren't words you want to hear spoken by the person most important to you.

Hope is nearly impossible to kill.

But hope has many manifestations.

There are always people worse off than you are and in many ways I am so lucky.

I'm good enough, smart enough, and doggonit, people like me.

A long way from nowhere wishin I was somewhere

I love, love, love Ryan Bingham's music. The sound quality on this video isn't the greatest; the video with the best sound has the embedding disabled. He's got this great raspy voice, kind of like Rod Stewart's, and I find his style unique. He's going to be at Ranch Bash, but, alas, I probably won't get to go.

Ground Control to Major Tom

got nostalgic this morning looked up Harry Nilsson on youtube found this never saw it before don't know if it's original to the song or if someone other than Nilsson put it together looks true to 1971 found it funny here it goes cheers

While I am loving the cooler temperatures I find the rain depressing.

I don't have much time to blog anymore. Mucho homework this semester.

How do you know when you're ready to start seeing other people, and when you know, where do you meet them?

My divorce was final a year ago Sept. 4. That's a milestone I never thought I'd hit.

I got lost in Fort Worth yesterday. Thank goodness for GPS because I have no sense of direction.

I wasn't able to attend, but Grandson's team lost yesterday, 0-6, to the number 2 ranked team. I am glad I wasn't there because I may have said something to his coach that I'd regret. For example, "Utilize your talent, dumb shit! Your son can run but he ain't the star you think he is."

It's hard to remember it's just a game when you're a girl with limited knowledge of the game and you know you could do a better job coaching.

Yesterday was only the 1st conference game. There's still hope he'll see the light.

Listen to me sounding like I know what I'm talking about.

I should be starting my internship within the next week or two. I'm askeered.

Someone I know has offered to take me for a ride when his ship comes in.

Yeah, that's where I'm gonna leave it. It sounds a lot more provocative that way.
