Made it thru Day 1... One Moment at A Time...
Permalink  

Well once I had it in my head, what i was going to do next, I put it in motion and got to it. I first went up by myself and got things going into boxes, and bags, and totes, to which I really didn't "Go" thru any of it, for now it is in my basement, and I have hopes today of getting thru some of it. because I want to get alot of it to Goodwill,  After I was there about 30 mintues tho, it started to feel abit over whelming, but my Best Friend, who I Never get time with... Stopped to drop off my boy that was at the bike shop with her, and she just came in... pulled up her sleeves... and started packing things up... she didn't say a word..., she just knew what i had to do, and what needed done... She stayed with me for 3 hours ;) My husband showed up to see what heavy stuff needed out, and then he left.. He knows I love my time with my BF.. :) My Boy mowed the grass and then went home with his dad so I could get back to it..

My Abrother, Again... Stood on the porch of the local bar, and Watched me...For he still never got the rest of his things out, and whats left he could Carry up to were he is staying (1)Block away... But...Today,if it is still there... it goes to Goodwill... I am ok with that now...I gave that one to HP, to handle and I can honestly say... I'm at peace with it...The resentment is still lingering some, but not near as severe as before... I don't loose sleep over it, so thats an improvement for me :)

I am a touch nervous that I haven't heard from this lady yet about moving the trailer and if she can meet me to sign over the title... Were she lives there is No cell phone service, but I was hoping she would at least check it :) But I guess if it again turns out not to be...well that is OK too.. I will go to about my 4th Plan B... And Move on... At least the contence will be gone, and done, and that will be all that is left for me to deal with...

After I completed the evenning, with only one more truck load for today, my big Asis calls, and tells me... (After I told her over the weekend what Days & Time I would be at Dads), she says.. "Well you should have called me, I would have come down" to which I just said!! "Nope.. I got it handled", of course I did have to rub in that my Best Friend showed up and she Helped me... To which I maybe shouldn't have, but you would have to know my Asister, who in her mind "ALONE", feels she knows all... Her "Opionon" is the only "right" answer! But again, after my little dig back, I told her I had to go, didn't care to repeat or relive my day with her at that point...

So... Today another long one, I am kind of tired for I have had a head cold on top of all this, so breathing has been enjoyable crawling around in an old dirt trailer, but Life goes on and the clock is ticking.. So I guess I better find some strength, an advil and keep chug'n along.. For Now I HAVE to... Go Thru it... In order to Move Past it... Or so I am told... So Charging on...

My reading this morning say that i should speak what is on my mind today, lol...(Wonder who will vibrate my phone:) it said... instead of living with resentment, to except I can not control the thoughts and actions of others.. Well.. I think I will keep that thought and see were the day leads... I am getting better with resentment, but my husband is NOT there yet... He can not stand to be in the room with my Asister, for he can't get past her "Ignorance" or Except that is who she is... but that is on him and her, and if they dont get along... Well I understand it both ways :) Such as life i suppose.. One Moment At A Time...

Just wanted to update... Thanks for listening :)
Always Grateful for your ESH :)
Love & Prayers to all pray.gif

HP came through-  Your friend appeared and helped for 3 hours.  Not something you planned or even hoped for!! I know this is very hard on you and am glad you have decided to just box up what is there and bring it home to be sorted at a later date.  

Of coarse you are going to feel irrated at ABrother and Sister for not doing their share.  Just vent it here and let go of the resentment.

Keeping you in my prayers.
