Life and 3's....

Ever notice in life things come in three's ? Ever notice the answer to almost any question can be 3. As one of my friends tells me..."The Answer is always 3." Well, to a point he is right....

So far in my life things have happened in threes...and it continues on...

First the landlord decided to put the house we are renting on the Market....It has been a month and there was a flurry of activity....and then nothing...So we sit and wait...and wait...and wait to see what is going to happen next.

Both computers crashed or had huge issues that they were not usable at all.

Then Wolfman lost his job....then finally it all intertwines...he needs the computer to search for a job but can't since they aren't working....then with the house on the market there are many jobs that have to be done which cuts into the time Wolfman can look for work but without a computer he can't access the information and it's limited....Then there is the library...with limited amounts of time on the internet. And so on and so forth. It comes down to a catch 22....a round robin of events that can't be controlled.

So I sit and wait for things to happen since most of everything is out of my control anyway....

I can only imagine all the upheaval that may occur if I have to move in the short amount of time right before school starts so I can keep both boys consistent and without making life more difficult for them than it should be.

Then a week after all of this happens........


ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE AGAIN!!!

I know alot of this is all about the not so great things happening right now....but when it comes to Kirby...it does get better and I can't express alot of this to him. He would become upset and agitated....He would get through it all with flying colors I am sure......

So lost and alone is sometimes how it all feels....Take the next breath...the next step.....moving forward one task at a time...Taking things in stride...

Back to All Hell Breaking Loose.....

My ex husband and I have been divorced for over 5 years...We have separated everything except our business that we have had for 10 years. He hired a bookkeeper whom I thought was doing all of the book work for the business....She wasn't doing squat!!! She did the payroll and that was about it.

The payroll taxes had not been paid since 2001 so now he is paying the price. The IRS is latching onto things and of course he doesn't currently have the money to make it up so they put a lien on the property and house he is living in and on the business...

What to do.....What to do....they have frozen an account that is in both our names...its the account he deposits his child support in (when he actually pays) and I move it out.

Oh well....we will see what happens.

Now for the Good News......

Kirby is at Boy Scout camp this week for the 3rd summer in a row...I keep getting messages from camp. Wolfman text messages me each day with a very short and sweet update. Because since Wolfman is out of work I volunteered him to go up to scout camp with 7 other adults and 37 boys from our boy scout troop. Lucky him....They are having a great time! Both of them involved and learning new things...helping to build a new bridge that leads to their camp....and working on all the merit badges....We will see how many Kirby gets complete by the time he comes home. He was so excited...

Then so was Wolfman....I couldn't figure out who was more excited. The boy or the adult.

They are having a great time and I am at home enjoying what is supposed to be quiet time.

Wolfman and Kirby are off at camp! Talk about having fun! Monkey Dude Jr is at his grandparents house for the week. Lil' Sister is out at a friends for the week....Which leaves me at home by myself...Between work and home that is all I have!

However.......

My brother and his wife are in town so they come and go....Which I don't mind at all...

My friend Redneck Woman comes over each day and I really enjoy her company...One of the few people I can talk to without judgment. She is also my kick in the back end when I need it...But its so nice and refreshing to have someone say, "Tough," or "Too bad," or "Wahhh." Grow up....

She is the one friend that if we went out and had fun and got into mischief....instead of calling her for help to get me out of a situation she would be the one sitting next to me saying, "Damn, that was fun!"

Love you Redneck Woman!!!

Not all is bad just tiring....Time to find the pillow and get some sleep before I have to be up at 5am and start my day all over again.

Have a good night, keep smiling, Chin Up! No matter what direction things take....It will always get better....

Cause.....

It's All Good!!!

Take care!
