Happy Birthday to ME




Well people today is my birthday. Sad! Yesterday my husband and I spent the day going thru his grandparents things. His grandpa died in July, on the hottest day of the year. The smell was horrible (nobody had been in his home since). This man was also a pack rat which made it all the worse, 95 years of collecting proved to be a very interesting day!
Have I said my dad is getting married? Yeah he is, on October 1st. I don't talk about him too much. His soon to be bride is 6 years older than me. It is funny, I never thought about age with any couple until I met this woman and it happened in my life. I have already been removed from the wil,l so what is left with that relationship (kidding, it was never about the money or lack there of!!)? Everyone wants to pretend it is alright for the wedding ,but I am sure after the 'blessed' event it will go back to the way things REALLY are! The first time I met the soon to be 'step-mother' I wasn't impressed. She has a drinking and drug habit, no wonder her and my dad hit it off! She is a liar and manipulator (which I caught her in but I suppose that is why someone already came up with the saying love is blind!) Anywho, my sister and I's pictures started disappearing from the house, as well as our kids, I knew that was a bad sign. Those pictures got replaced with her dogs! I am not kidding!! I think what bothers me the most about this whole situation is that my dad was having back surgery and he is a diabetic and alcoholic and drug user, so that made it very dire for him to even have the surgery and he must have known something was wrong because he revised his will and what not. He had the surgery and his "precious" didn't come see him once in the hospital, then continued to call him drunk when he got home, because he wasn't spending time with her! Who took care of him...ME, but then who else would? Okay here is the OH MY GOD something is whacked part: In their current home their lives a family: with Mike (my dad) Lady Di (no shit that is what they call her) Claudia (the mutt dog, that is their daughter) and Jay (the ex-boyfriend to the lady Di). I am serious. I was told that Jay missed the dog (that had been his and Di's daughter together originally) so he had to move in. I cringe to think I would actually fit in on the Jerry Springer show!!
Maybe another time I will get to talk about my mother.........my life is tragic and I am trying my hardest to stop the cycle and do something different, so my children don't turn out as fucked up as me.
Some other time I will go into my life a lil more, but not today because today is MY birthday and I don't want to be depressed!
Happy Birthday to me!!
