Things have been relatively calm around here the past few days. It's been needed. As a result though, at the moment I don't have much "public processing" to share. I'm sure I will again soon. (But you know, if that sort of thing bothers you, feel free not to stop by. No one forces you to read what I write. How I process is how I process and I make no apology for it. I'm sure there are lots of things you do that I don't think are right. Just sayin'.)
Anyway.....now that I've confused most of you.....I'll just keep going.
Last night when I was putting the kids to bed I accidentally fell asleep. I hardly ever have done that but one moment I was asking Kaylen to quiet down and the next minute the dogs were in bugging me to be let outside. Two hours had passed.
I think I was dreaming of custom shot glasses or something. :) Which would be pretty funny.
Clearly I was tired but I had some things I had wanted to do once the kids were sleeping but since it was so late all I really did was take care of the animals, close up the house and went to bed.
Tonight Dakota comes by for dinner and bedtime with the kids. It's all so weird.

Sleep is good. I hope you are not too frustrated about falling asleep because it sounds as if you really needed it. Taking care of yourself is good! Good luck with the visit tomorrow and eveything else too.
This blog is yours and for you, don't give us readers another thought. Maybe I'm checking in hoping that something happens to make everything okay again or atleast that good things come your way to help you get through this hard thing that seemed so unexpected. You are still a compelling writer. Keep believing in yourself. From Shannon
Shannon, Thanks. I love the support I get - and I'm glad you are here. It's the "not so supportive" to whom that was aimed. Comments are moderated for a reason. :)
Zach, Thank you.
Honestly, Casey, I think you are doing so well. As you know, this was my future a year and a half ago. By sheer mercy, I was freed from that...for now. We're still not where I want us to be and hope I'm not just prolonging the ineveitable. Your strenght amazes me. You have my support as you muddle through concentrating on what's best for your children and yourself. My prayers are with you.
Casey I will stop by EVERYDAY I am worried about you because I have been were you are and I know it's not pretty....you say anything you want to like you said if people don't like it then don't log on to your site.....love ya!
Casey keep on moderating and hopefully those who feel the need to post nasty and/or hateful things will piss off. Hang in there.
I agree! Keep moderating. There are some nasty people out there who will do anything to get at you and the ones you love. You are a fabulous mom and yes, Kelton and Kaylen are going to have meltdowns. It's expected. It stands as a testament to YOUR parenting that they are weathering this as well as they are. They feel safe with YOU!

You're right it is your blog and we don't have to come by and read. Even though we haven't met, I've grown to really enjoy reading your blog, your children are darling and I feel as if I know you all. I wonder too if it might not have been helpful for me to have an outlet such as you do with your blog, when I was going through my divorce. of course that was many years before the internet ;-) In any event, I hope life gets easier for you and your kids.
I use to fall asleep all the time when I put J to bed. Now R does, lol. It's so calming in there.
I hope my last comment to you was not one that offended, and I'm glad you moderated it as it was really only meant for your eyes and as a source of comfort. As is this one, I suppose. Since coming across your blogs, your family has been in my thoughts. I think you may find a sense of peace at the end of this transition that you may not have anticipated. I hope so, as you and the kids so deserve it. All the best to you.

Melanie,
It was absolutely not your comment. No worries at all, ok? :)
