Thrive to spite them

I don't know how I feel right now. Except just sad.

And J's exwife has been out of jail now for a few weeks and her daughter let Mom know that she (the ex wife) has been getting drunk again. Which makes me sad too because I think based on what little I know of her parents and sibling, what she needs is a lot of therapy and support.

This also means that the ex wife will get to make decisions about J's son and all of that and .,.it's a mess. That child needs a miracle and there aren't any.

On a side note my mom's brother was married for a long time, he and my aunt got divorced when his daughters were in their 20s to a woman who was only a few years older than his oldest daughter and who has the same name as Mom. I haven't ever really gotten to know her so she's always "my uncle's wife" in my head.

To my aunt, however, she has become "wife-in-law" and my aunt just posted a selfie of the three of them saying Happy Birthday Wife in Law .

Which makes me smile that they can build that kind of relationship and support system.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

askye, that so hard. I'm sorry.

ISTG, I think I know (or know of) more people who've tested positive for Covid in the past 2 weeks than in the entire last 2 years. Omicron is not fucking around.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I'm so sorry, askye.

This is really lovely. I was very lucky that my parents loved me more than divorce conflict. My family has also kept my ex-aunt-in-law as family. Life is so much better when people can either co-exist or leave the other's orbit.

the most American video ever.

There is a fast-Mexican place called Berto's when they stop for lunch. The Southern California in me is laughing. I'm only about five minutes in...
