Last night when I finished writing that post I decided the one thing that would make me feel better is to put out more Christmas lights. So, at 9;30pm I was in the front yard unwinding the Christmas lights that were in knots and then put them up. It did feel good and I did feel better afterwards.
I was thinking this morning about things. It's not that I miss Laura because I don't miss her. What I miss is her family. Her parents are super sweet and I just hate that they were ripped from my life. Laura's Mom has MS and I know she has not been doing good this year. I hate that Laura wants me to have nothing to do with them. I think she is afraid of what I might say to them, or what they would say to me. Laura also has 3 nephews that I was close with. It just doesn't seem fair that someone that is so cold hearted can have such a good, loving family.
The last 3 days it has been super warm in Kansas City. Sunday night it was so warm and muggy that for a few seconds I thought about turning the air back on. Today....today we are getting snow. I think today's snow is a small gift from God to me. Snow always makes me happy.
I brought my camera with me to work today and will be giving you guys a tour of where I work. You will see how messy I keep my desk and how cool our building is. I also thought it would be a good idea to have my camera with me for the drive home. It gets crazy out there when we have the first snow fall. And there is nothing better then taking pictures of idiots on the road.
Tonight Rusty is coming over and will be with us for the weekend. Rusty has never been around cats, so I am not sure how that will go. I have my squirt bottle all ready for when he takes out after the cats.
I have one thing to say to my anonymous commenter: If you do not like what you read here you need to remember that I am not forcing you to come to my blog everyday. You make that choice each time you click on my blog. Thanks to my wonderful trackers I have a pretty good idea who you are. Just remember: you make that choice 5-6 times a day.

Why are you letting Laura decide if you can have a relationship with her parents and family? I think it's between you and them to decide that or not. Just a thought.
Can't wait to see the pictures! We're going to be putting up lights and stuff tonight I think. Peace to you sweetie.
The S-word has passed us by - whew......
Oh, Christmas decorations ALWAYS cheer me up, too! So glad to hear it. And I'm excited about seeing the pictures of the office. I love stuff like that.
traci--right now i feel kind of trapped because i depend on laura for the little bit of money she sends me each month. i have a feeling that if i tried to have a relationship with her family she would stop that...and right now i just really need that money. in may i talked with her older sister (her older sister called me) and lauras response was "don't fuck with my family". i think someone is a little bitter...:) have fun putting the lights up.
cheeky--how could you be happy with the fact that the snow missed you???? i pray every night during the winter for snow..
kim--my next goal is to go out and get a x-mas tree. i think i am going to do that this weekend...have a great thanksgiving
You're a brave woman taking on a dog who's never been cat-tested and approved! I really hope it goes smoothly, you might have your hands full!!
You and your love affair with the s. We will have to agree to disagree on that one.
Caroline I live in a snow belt and lake erie in its evilness dumps feet on us.(lake effect snow) so i dont like seeing the snow come we have had several days with snow now its here to stay till april or may.Evil Lake Erie.Hmmmm maybe you should move up here lol
OMG Caroline I am an anonymous
blogger but I dont think I have ever been anything but positive regarding you and your life. I hope I didnt say anything to upset you, I would never do that to another human, at least not intentionally. I have 5 children, 4 of whom are married so I have seen it all and heard it all, and still love them unconditionally.
BTW why cant you still be friends with whoever you choose? How can Laura control that?
Happy Thanksgiving to all...makes me want turkey again.....mine was the first Mon in Oct.
Ruth in Canada
sandra--it's going to be an interesting weekend with Rusty. thankfully he has a kennel, so if he gets to crazy i can just put him there to chill out.
katie--lol..i guess we will have to agree to disagree...i just don't understand people could not love snow...
redfrog--it does sound like i need to move to where you are. if it were my choice, i would move to alaska...
ruth--oh, no....it was not you. i had someone else that commented that was anonymous that was pretty hateful. you always sign your name...this person was too much of a coward to sign their name.
Oh yeah you notice I have not responded once to your comments about the S word. I'm with Katie on this one!!!!
BTW the ground here just became covered with the stuff here tonight. Not enough to stick, but the ground is white. Me no happy.
Maybe send Laura's folks/family a nice card for the holiday's!?!?!?
It is odd when you break up and suddenly have nothing to do with the family that you've gotten to know. It's like taking sides but in your case (and probably many others cases) they were your side.
I bet they'd love to get a card from you... wishing them a great holiday and for them to know that they are still in your thoughts.
