outtamyhead

dave and i helped our friend sue move this morning. she's getting a divorce.

dave has known her for close to 20 years from working at the newspaper. i've known her for 8 years.

i know her husband and like him too. he's not really a bad sort - not an abuser in the literal sense, not a criminal or anything like that. it seems that he's become a functioning alcoholic and has no motivation to get off the couch and do anything more than work a little (part time), fish and drink. and drink. and drink. and recover on the couch. and recover some more...

they've been together for 27 years. it's sad. they've tried everything people try when going thru these hard times. and it's been going on for years. they have no children, she's thankful of that in this respect. i know it hasn't been an easy decision for her and she's agonized over it for years. she's decided to leave him on numerous occasions and stayed, hopeful and working harder on the marriage. but it takes two people to do the working, ya know?

so there were tears and trembling hands, but also hopes and dreams that she'll be good again eventually. she's a resolute girl.

the nice part is that she moved into a very nice apartment community a true stone's throw from us. we can see the buildings from the side of our building.

she has our numbers if she wants or needs anything.

trying to catch up on reading and posting and commenting. it's been a very busy week. i've missed you guys and dolls.

****

i think i'll go in and pick up the house just enough that it will feel clean and cozy tonight. i plan on relaxing, like i am now, except with wine and a book and maybe a movie.

we got started with the moving at 8am, so it's nice to have the rest of today, tomorrow and monday with no committments.

boy, that hasn't happened in a long time.

****

apparently, i am still vp of the board, so long as i want that job. there's a clause - of course - that has me covered. again i say IF i want the job.

i'm still deciding. i'm not fooling with any of it this long weekend. i'm not thinking about it past this blog entry, and i'm not answering the phone. not from any of those people, anyway.

like i said, i plan on relaxing.

love, hugs and smoochies.

outtamyhead sometimes it all comes outtamyhead, and sometimes i'm just outtamyhead. period. i guess i started this journal thingy out of boredom at a job i used to have. i stay here because i've come to know and love some of the people i've "met". you know who you are!!!
