That Girl

That’s the song stuck in my head… now it’s yours! I fucking love that song.  Anyway!!!  How goes it?  Next week Josh and I are hitting the spa so throw up a prayer that I stay on two feet. I have a couple of doctors appointments, a meeting about a new book(!!!) then we have reservations for our favorite restaurant ( it’s damn hard to get in anymore so we’ve had these for a minute) and on the fourth we’re seeing a movie. I rarely rarely go to movies…. In fact, this might MIGHT be only the second one in a year… but I can’t even remember what the second one might have been. It’s pointless anymore. They come out on a streaming platform a month later but we want to see this one on a big screen. And I have to squeeze in regular swimming in there somewhere. I’m up to 2 hours straight swimming and I’ll build up to three. That’s when I feel my best.  Had a psychiatrist appointment last week and it was funny timing because some rando on the interwebs called me a cunt AND a les...

 My BIL is moving to Fort Worth in two weeks and my head is thisclose to exploding. He’s the kind of person who says inappropriately shocking things just to get attention and I get tired of telling him to SHUT IT! He made a comment to me when I was pretending to shake something sideways… His comment was about my breasts, I looked him straight in the face and said “ I’m your fucking sister!” To which he replied “ oh, I didn’t think about it like that” my dude! You’ve known me for 33 years!!!!! His, let’s just call her “wife” to save time, was like “ think mf’er!” 😂😂 I do like her so far.  I’m so freaking tan!! Got a jump on it this year! My freckles have freckled so nearly all makeup is gone for the summer. Just mascara and lipstick, maybe some eyeliner to make those eyes pop. They look so green when I’m tan. 💕 Ok… WhYDoNt yOu DrEsS YoUr Age? YoU lOoK SiLlY. So, I realized that this comment… obviously I rewrote it to look the way it feels…. Had to have come from someone on F...

 I have that song stuck in my head. I’m passing it off to you. Take it. Confession: Two-three-ish months ago I began having a two week conversation with an old friend. Now, from time to time we talk but it’s real surface kind of stuff because she couldn’t be trusted in my life as a friend but she contacted me to ask if I knew that “ The Boy’s mom had died” and because it was her I knew immediately what “Boys” she meant. Her name is Shaw-na and so I replied like, “ Uh. Ya.” She told me that she’d seen the obit and read the page for the restaurant that Mom had owned and decided that her curiosity was going to kill the cat. She asked me why everyone had been talking smack about her husband and other than knowing that a Boy didn’t particularly care for him, like, I don’t know. But, I’d read it too. So…….. I asked if she’d read anything about one of the “Boys” passing and she had not. So, that was a double edged sword and you know who understands that and had an emergency meeting with t...

 Lord have mercy!! Spent the entire weekend with my brother in law and his ex-wife…. They’re trying to get back together… First. The anxiety overload was massive in day one. He talks super loud and super fast. His energy is level 10 and my energy was starting to go into the basement to hide in a dark corner by the end of day one. We went out to Red Robin and, ya, I got drunk, so, survival, it’s a real thing. They got drunk and omg. I am a kind of loud and fast talker myself so the two of us sounded like boat motors. After that we came back here to the French cafe to have crepes for dessert. There was a concert in the green, 80’s “stadium rock” which meant that even Josh and my husband were all singing ( at the cafe on the patio) in our loudest concert voices to you know, Metallica and Scorpions and Def Leopard…. Like adults will do…..  his ex-wife is 50 something, dresses VERY similar to me, in fact… weirdness…. I wasn’t home when they got here, she walked around, declared tha...

 I’m back! So, how’s things going? It’s been unseasonably cool here and I’m loving it. Lots of rain too. My heart is full. Not too surprising but we went to the spa WORLD-SPRINGS yesterday and spent EIGHT HOURS soaking and swimming and just getting rid of toxins and absorbing minerals. I don’t know if that shit works but it sure feels like it. My muscles and mentality and body just feel better. I got home and just wanted to go right to sleep. It’s my little heaven. Way better therapy than talk therapy. Just get yourself into the Dead Sea or Bali or Japan or Australia ( my favorite) or South Korea and take a nice mental vacation….. your worries float away…. There was a life guard at the Dead Sea , she was probably 17 years old, this guy about 40 comes up to hit on her, as they will, after 10 minutes with her body language looking so upset I decided to get out of the pool, put my hand in her arm and say “ Hey, Sweetpea, I’m gonna stay until you close, do you still want your dad and I...

 On Monday my son and I got an uber, I think I mentioned that my car was totaled by hail…. Anyway, I splurged and got a really nice one, like hello, I’m a kardashian…. And I took him to the spa. He did not want to go. He had it in his head that it was going to be like People Soup…. But he LOVED it! We loved it! Had the best time. He’s good. My husband picked us up but, ugh, we did not want too. We have our favorite pools and he liked them best too. They play jazz music and you can just hear all the water falls. The funny thing is that I can see Plano out from my balcony, this is on the opposite side of what we can see, so, very close to home but also 30 minutes away because their is no straight connection. Both my husband and Josh like the pool where you can see the view of the city and at night, it’s stunning. Also helped my wrist! For the time we where there… My wrist is not good. I can’t hold a cup of coffee, I can’t type, I can’t paint. Argh!  Went swimming in Tuesday and ...
