It's been a while, and I've missed my STalkers!

It's been about 6mo since I've been on and a lot has happened. DS and I have moved into our own home. It's been great just the two of us! I am STILL waiting for insurance to approve my back surgery. It's a very new procedure, so my insurance still considers it Experimental. So, fingers crossed, they will approve it soon, because I have been in pain too long.

I'm FREE!

Unfortunately my new found "freedom" is also accompanied by mourning for the loss of my Mother, who passed away just over a week ago. Indigo commented on my last blog that they give you books on how to care for babies, but they don't give you a book on how to help someone die. Well, when it comes to cancer at least, it's alot like taking care of a baby. You have to tell them the same things over and over. They sleep most of the day. You have to feed them, make sure they're drinking enough & give them their medications.

My how the tides have turned...

In the past few weeks, my Moms condition has declined dramatically. She wanted to go home to the house she and my dad shared, which had been on the market. She told us she wanted to go home and that she wanted to die in her sunroom. So, my sister came in from out of state and she and I have been taking care of her 24/7. This has been so completely heart wrenching on its own. This is the time I could certainly use the support and love of the man who supposedly wanted to spend the rest of his life with me... But, that ain't happenin!

So, my DS14's father and I have always had a very friendly relationship. We very successfully co-parented after our amicable split. My last boyfriend and I used to play trivia with he & his current wife! But my current SO can't deal with me even getting out of the car to discuss school,or even wave goodbye if I stay in the car, etc when we "switch out" my son. We were never flirty or anything! We just had a healthy, amicable relationship. Not so much anymore.

This "Close" is not normal!

I've always known SO and SD14 were close. He told me from the beginning that she was his "best buddy". He always said that he was "all she has" (her mother left when she was a young child and has very little to do with her, she has NO friends at all and her older sister can't stand being around her), therefore her being around (literally) 24/7 was a fact of life. I guess I never understood that her being around 24/7 was going to be quite so literal... right down to plopping down on our bed late at night with her iPad because she doesn't want to be alone in her room.
