Time
Where has 2011 gone?? I can't believe that it's time to start Christmas shopping (actually, I should have started long before now) and Thanksgiving is only two weeks away. And although I should take my Mom's advice and "never wish your life away", I will be glad to see 2012. This year has just had too much heartbreak. We lost Roy, something that we think about every single day, and have yet to get over. Then, Brad and family moved to Utah only to move back a couple months later (which was a good surprise), but in the end their marriage couldn't survive. Now we deal with those consequences daily. It's just so hard to stay neutral and to know what to say, when to say it, etc.... It seems like I'm on edge all the time, and I hate it that I sometimes can't enjoy the kiddo's when they are here. My nerves are fried and I'm walking on eggshells in my own home. Needless to say, I've got to get a hold of this situation in my own mind and make some changes. It doesn't help that besides Doyle I really don't have anyone that I can sit down and talk to. I'm leery of some people that I once considered my closest confidants. This is not where I planned this post to go but I do feel a little better to get it out there. Maybe I'm just dreading the holidays and the potential headaches that could come with it. Life adjustments take time and I hope we all come out better on the other side of these.

Okay, this is my 3rd time to try to leave a comment. If it doesn't work this time, I give up.
Jessie, I hope you consider me someone you can confide in. I am here if you need to talk/vent or whatever.
Lorie, Of course you are on my "short list" of people I can talk to. Sadly, you are in Minnesota---and sometimes I need a "real" shoulder. So many times I wish we lived closer. We always have such good intentions of having that heart to heart when we visit. But, too often we don't seem to work it in to the schedule. It's just so hard when so many people are there. I think that neither one of us feel like we can disappear together, just the two of us. One of these days I would like to come for a visit when it's NOT Kruse-a-palooza!!!
You are so right Jessie. It is very hard to get away - just the 2 of us - during Kruse-a-palooza. There are so many people around and so much to do. I feel the need to be around everyone during Kruse-a-palooza. I love having everyone around. Yes, you do need to come for a visit when it isn't Kruse-a-palooza. Maybe we could get together half way in between some time. Love you lots!
