What's Next? She Wants the Piano Back From Princess???
So I found out that both break-ups at my party ended up getting back together... that makes me happy because it bothered me that my party would cause this to happen (and because I hate to see my friends sad of course)... but on the other hand, it seems strange to me they would get back together... both couples have been together for about a year & both have been having problems... both want different things for the future & know it just cannot work, so why go on & waste eachother's time? I know it is hard when you care so much about someone, but you have to let go at some point... Anyway, none of my business...
I found out from Weathergeek's diary that the good old weatherman from ITV in Edmonton when I lived there BILL MATHESON has passed away. I haven't ever met the man, but he just seemed so sweet & cool... I also heard he was quite the drinker! It made me sad to haer though. Rest in Peace Bill.
So I had to go through some of the pictures I have downloaded on Diarlyland & delete a few to make room for the tonnes I have been adding yesterday & came across this pic of me:
Holy hair! I can hardly remember it being that long... I think I miss it & will try to grow it again... and I know HW likes it best long too. That picture was from my Gradutation of the General Insurance Essentials Diploma... must have been in 2003?
Lots different from what I look like today, eh?
Boy, I have been camera crazy lately eh? People must think I am so conceited! I am not... honest!
So we moved all of HW's furniture etc out yesterday into a 10x10 storage locker. Nice to know that's done... but now that's another bill to pay... so just more incentive for us to hurry up & sell mine & get our new home so we can get past this whole phase!
Something is up with my Shaw email account... is anyone else having problems? I couldn't get my email from my Outlook at home, and even when I try to log on to webmail from work it won't let me... arrrrgh! How can I live without my email????? :(
So my Mama is really confusing me. When Papa passed away she gave away most of his clothes & belongings... that's what people do, right? So HW got a few of his dress shirts (well three I think exactly). He wore one to Papa's funeral & has worn that one & another a few times when he needs to dress up. I really like to see them on him, they look great & it's nice that they were my granfathers and my man gets to wear them. It makes me feel good to see them. The other one wasn't HW's type, so we gave it to his Dad for Father's day. He looks great in it too, and he likes it alot, we see him in it often. It also makes me very happy to see him wear & think of Papa & smile.
Well, much more than a year later, Mama writes me a letter. She is asking me to bring those shirts back to her when we visit at Christmas. WHAT??? Okay, that just seems weird. I mean, for what, for starters? What would she do with them? What is wrong with knowing your granddaughter has them & the man she will one day marry wears them? Once you give something away, how can you ask for it back, especially something so sentimental. I got nothing out of that house that a lot of family did... can I keep a few shirts??? It just strikes me as odd & I don't know what to say to her. I do know that I refuse to ask Dad to give us back the gift we gave him. And that one she actually described as one of the ones she really loved & wanted back. Sorry, I just can't do it... and anyway, I remember that Mom bought that shirt for him... so it isn't rightfully hers to take back. The other two, I mean, if it's going to 'cause a fight, fine, she can have them, but I will not be happy about it... it just doesn't make sense. I guess I will have to write her a letter back & see if I can explain how I feel about this without hurting any feelings and hopefully she can make some sense out of this for me.
Yeah, I think I'll do that.
TTYL...
or T.G.I.F. (Thank God It's Friday!) ...
Oh, wait a minute...
S.H.I.T. (Sorry Honey, It's Thursday!!!)
