Wow.
I'm sitting here wondering where in life i'm going.
Is life really all about marriage and kids and spouses and everything else.
Does anyone besides me wonder why they are here on earth? Anyone??

I feel Old...
I cannot believe that my niece is nine. I know I have my two step kids now...They are ages eight and nine. I dont know why they dont make me feel old. I think since Liz and I are twin's it makes me feel old. If Ashley and Jeffery were mine biologically I would probably feel a lot older. LOL>>>Sheesh what can I say...the kids mean everything to me. and i'm to the point where some day I pray that I am able to have a few of my own. Gues I'll have to wait and see..

As I sit here
wondering what the world I am doing. I'm so lost in this darn claim i'm about to scream. Makes me wonder why people do things that they do.
I had a great weekend with the kids. Spent my Tuesday with my nieces and new step kids cleaning house and cuddling and watching TV. What more could I ask for. The kids were all in good moods and I got to end the night with my husband. On Wednesday I met my sister with all the kids in tow for coffee and then we had lunch at Denny's. It was good and the kids were great. After Denny's we took my hubby lunch and then off to ice skating. Jeffery took two laps around the ice rink holding onto the side of the rink and then finally ventured out on his own around the rink with my niece (who I think he still harbors some puppy love for more on this later). Ashley spent a lot more time around the edge of the rink however finally persevered and actually ventured across the ice a few times....although very very slowly. She still held on the majority of the rest of the time. But what can I say for first timers they were not too bad.
Now back to the Ashlynn/Jeffery thing. Back when Dennis and I were first dating we took the kids on a trip to Laughlin Nevada. Ashlynn and Jeffery pronounced at that time that they were Boyfriend/Girlfriend. Sheesh Dennis and I had been dating for three or four weeks at that time and had not made that announcement....let alone these two who had known eachother for about 36-48 hours...>Darn kids I tell ya! Anyways...Once Dennis and I got married....they learned...UH OH....they are now cousins....hmm makes it hard doesnt it. So jeffery told Lynn that he found another girlfriend last week....Not sure exactly what's going on with that...But hell it's cute anyways....

My poor car
Wednesday, February 15, 2006
why?
ME: So tell me the truth. You said at one time that you knew within a month that you and Tami were not compatable yet you stayed in a relationship for over a year. What do you feel about us.
CJ: well, honestly, yes if i think about it i don't really see us having a long-term relationship. and when i say that, i mean living together or getting married someday. although i have to admit that you remind me of what i am looking for in more ways than she did. but it still doesn't seem like the perfect fit, you know?
CJ: so i guess the question is, if you know that already, should you even bother dating? and i think it's better to spend time with someone that can be your friend even if it's not completely a match than to just call it quits. but what do you think?
ME: I really dont know what to say
CJ: i know it's not the best situation, but i don't know the best way to deal with it. but we should both be on the same page
ME: you know what you want. i'm not it. obviously it's apparent.
CJ it doesn't mean i don't try to treat you well like you deserve. but i'm not going to lie to you and tell you i'm in love only to dump you suddenly because i found someone else
ME: I'm not in love with you. but i'm glad I didnt get attatched.
CJ i know so i guess it still comes down to that question. which would you rather do? continue sharing what we have or nothing at all? or something else
ME: I cant answer that right now.
CJ: okay, i understand and i want to do what's best for you. so we can talk about it later. it is bedtime for both of us now
ME: i dont even know what' sbest for me
CJ: i know, me neither
CJ: well go to bed and get some sleep. have a good night
