Rant 2

What a weird day! It started out great with an early wake-up, I walked for an hour, cleaned up, and then I watched a show that made me feel terrible!  Tammy and George, a show about country singers in the 60's and 70's made me feel so awful.  The actors and actresses were really good, that is probably what evoked such an emotional response.  I finished the night with Abbott elementary, a more lighthearted show about serious subjects.  

This a.m. I woke up to Ava asking me to take her to school.  She did not get up in time.  That kind of thing really boils my blood.  It is absolute irresponsibility.  She lost her phone, and got a sweet lecture on the way to school.  My son and I are also in a weird time.  I am having a hard time letting go and letting him grow up.  I think I am going to have a talk with him after school today.  He has a girlfriend now and I am happy for him but I want him to have a balance of hanging out with her, his friends, and family.  

I do have a girls' night out which I am weirdly nervous about...hmmmm.  I am not sure why.  I need to follow up on how it went.  

Girls' night out was fantabulous!  It was a great time and I just let all my hair down, figuratively.  Probably the best group of girls I have met since I was in the Navy.  I can be myself around them and not fear judgment.  I have some amazing friends but they are more one-on-one friends.  This is the first girl group I have felt comfortable with for 20 years.  It was not for lack of trying, all the bible studies, get-togethers and it never felt totally real.  

This is definitely not my best post but need to move on to a new one.
