and the days all roll into one...

here's a few pix from yesterday

we took sushi to see her mommy.
they were both so happy to see each other.


first, we of course had to go eat-
we went to pei wei,
good stuff.

THEN,
we went to a park...
and let soulkid walk around with sushi.
we were all surprised that sushi wasn't an idiot.
she did real good for not normally being walked-
or out around people and other animals like that.
i think she was just too thrilled to see her mom,
that she didn't notice.

aren't they sweet?



time goes so fast when we have her out on a pass-
it's only three hours, and there's not much
you can do in that time.

so after we took her back, we went to a different park..and
of course had to try our luck at
fishin!

THAT is a big ole bass-
much bigger than he looks here.
it made soulman happy--obviously--
and of course he was the man of the hour--
everybody stopped what they were doing-
to see his fishy.

as for me...
i didn't even get a bite.
poor me.
i'm next tho.


we were just happy that the weather turned and got pretty nice.
i think it did actually make it to 70-
woo hoo.


as for today?

i'm friggin tired.
that would be as in
T-I-A-H-D!


i actually slept again last night--roughly, but it was sleep.
i woke up around 3 somethin, did my mornin stuff-
and couldn't stay awake.
i kept trying to post here, but i kept fallin asleep.
finally i quit fightin it , and just took a nap.

then i had a short yahoo chat with a - pal - o - mine.
and fell back to sleep when we were done!
gosh i feel lazy today.

i have group in a while-- and my damn clothes won't dry!
it's not like i have any that fit anymore--
so they are all in the dryer.
oh yippee.
i hope they dry in time.

i have a busy week ahead--
but the one good thing?
ya wanna know?
soulkid comes home on wednesday !!!!!
it's almost strange, but i am very proud of her.
she has worked so hard there .
she has everything all planned out.
she's gonna go back to school.
she knows who she will hang with and who she won't.
and she's already told most of them... the users-- that she is done with them.
she has realized they weren't friends, and she doesn';t need or want them.
i think she's gonna be just fine.
(it's me i worry about LOL)

this year was "supposed" to be a good one..better than last--
so far-- it hasn't been very kind---
but i spose that's subject to change.
we shall see.

anyhow-- i must check my dang clothes again.
i'll be goin to group nekkid if they don't dry--
and that would NOT be a pretty sight.

welp on that note--i am outtah heah---

have happy days in in your worlds today!

another busy day ahead --

howdy folks--
i'm writing something i didn't plan on writing when i started--- but that's just me, and how my mind works these days.
i already had some of these pix up, so maybe i'll just work both ideas into this thing. yep-- it's early-- ok, not so early, but my brain just hit overdrive---

did i ever mention to y'all that i have PTSD?? well, i'm sure i have , somewhere along the way here--- BUT, one part of this diagnosis is-- the sound of sirens. depending on where my family is , or sometimes where i am... it can cause mild, to severe panic attacks with me.

this is due to something that happened years ago-- that i don't have time or effort to get into right now--- but trust me, it's valid... and it sucks.

so-- gettin on with this thing--

soulman just left for work-- maybe ten minutes before i began to hear sirens. LOTS of sirens. it had to be cops, ambulance, fire truck - paramedics. the whole shebang.,and they were close-- and loud.
i went straight into my panic mode-and thinking--

he got in a wreck.. it's him.. i should drive over and look down the street--- a hundred thoughts went thru my head in a matter of seconds. i HATE IT! i have been this way for about 20 years. it's a fear, and panic that even anxiety meds don't help. (much), but right now, i am not on any meds-- (note to self--take a.m. meds) :))

so anyhow--- the sirens --- ugh --- i just new it was close--whatever "it" was-- and must be bad cuz there was so many.

eegads! y'all just don't know what it does to me.

one of two "moods" will overtake me today---

THIS?
or THIS_

BUT-- hey ---
luckily soulman is well aware of my panic disorder-- and many of the triggers for it..

so, before i could worry for too long---
he called me.. to let me know-- it was right down the street--- but it was not him.
PHEW.

apparently a highschool girl was driving in front of him...
and flipped her car!!!!
OMG. how scary--
(having a hubby and an almost driving kid--
i don't even wanna think of car wrecks!)
anyhow he said he stopped---of course-- and helped her out of her car-- called 911 etc...
her parents showed up while we were on the phone.
apparently she wasn't hurt-- but i'll bet she's gonna be feelin some pain later.

so anyhow--- her windows fogged up-- and she couldn't see-- and ended up on her side in a concrete culvert.
she was just inexperienced---
she shoulda stopped --or rolled her window down... or any number of things to clear her windshield ---

SO--
note to moms and dads- with driving kids---
add foggy window solutions to your list of --
"if this happens while you're driving-isms.

and be sure to tell 'em , before
THAT happens.

=============================================

anyways , i am late gettin ready to go , so i gotta get offa heah---

but THIS-

was gonna be my original post for the day----
i had planned on bitching about hubby and his x-box 360 addiction.
but i think i'll just be glad he is ok today-- and the girl in the wreck is ok---
and it can ALWAYS be worse---
no matter wth, you think is so bad.

happy humpday!!!
