he is STILL coming

 No baby yet.  I have the utmost sympathy for my DIL.  This has been a long haul.  Both appear to be in good spirits and were able to get some rest last night due to the epidural.  Smart lady.  Sometimes i think if i had to do it again i might have gone with the epidural.

I'm glad they aren't "rushing" my grandson.  Everyone is good, healthy and there are no concerns.  I had fear that they would rush her into a c-section without need.  They have a LOT of steps to go up and down at their home, and that would have been a lot to deal with.

All i can do is wait.

This morning i asked her (in the family chat) how much she is dilated? and my daughter piped in with MOM!  So i immediately felt chastised.  I apologized and she said she was only kidding.  And then Jess told me the details.

Weirdly, I feel like I'm walking on eggshells around Lindsay.   It's her reluctance to spend time with me, or even talk to me.  Something is going on there.  It needs to get fixed because i'm not getting cut out of her life.  Or my granddaughters life.  Sometimes i wonder how much of this has to do with her husband.

Now is the time to dig with the new baby entering our family.  Enough.  Could be all my imagination but what ever it is we will come to the bottom of it once and for all.  

Sometimes i feel bad for my ex.  He missed all of this.  I know he loves his children in his own fucked up way- but he never maintained a relationship with either of them.  He pushed too hard and then not enough.  You basically have to hang on like a rabid dog when they try to get rid of you.  Pretty much.  And mind your business unless asked for your opinion.  And be there.  Wether they like it or not.  It's really no different than raising them.

Now i'm getting regular phone calls and texts from Bill again......i have to say, i do love our conversations.  The banter, topics, the mild flirtation and many disagreements.....I enjoy him when he isn't manic.  I enjoy his touch, his brain..........but his actions are hurtful and predictable.  He says i run, I say he gives me reason to.  Not sure what the point of all this is, but i am willing, AGAIN, to see what happens.  Maybe it's two very fucked up people trying to manage our emotions or maybe he's just a user.  

I don't know.  And right now, it's not my problem.

Work- i'm a little pissed off.  AGAIN i am being left off the website as the coordinator of my program.  Everyone else is listed and they aren't even the ones doing the bulk or heavy lifting of the program.  I AM.  Fuck yeah i want the public recognition.  I'm not invisible.  There is NO ONE else but me managing this program and i'm getting tired of that office always leaving me out.  I honestly hope they DO just take the project over.  Good fucking luck.  They think they can do it better, be my guest.  Have fun with that.  And DO NOT come to me with any questions or problems after having treated me like i don't exist.

Just sit back and watch the shit hit the fan.  I'm moving on.  It hurts me to think the Dr. S would ever find out what they are doing, but i have not personal attachment to any WORK.  There's always more, and they certainly are going to find that out soon.

I love ChatGPT

 I am extremely transparent with my emotions because i do not have the ability to NOT be.  My only option when i'm having any feelings is to talk in a very low, slow, monotone voice and keep my face as blank as i possibly can. Unless they mean something to me. Unless i care about them and how they treat me.  So while i'm perfectly okay with never seeing or hearing from Mr. Cigar again, in light of his true self unveiling, I am overthinking my expression of emotions to him.   I took this little conversation and put it into ChatGPT with no questions or directions and this is what i got back: This exchange captures a painful and emotionally charged moment. Your initial message was heartfelt, vulnerable, and expressed a genuine desire for connection and acknowledgment. His response, while polite on the surface, carried a sharp undercurrent of blame and finality—deflecting accountability and subtly rewriting the narrative as your fault. Ending it with “safe travels ...

Probably wierd and maybe alterier motives

 Me being in daily contact with Mary is probably weird.  I've asked myself multiple times, "why"?  At first the only thing we had in common was Mr. Cigar, and you know what they say "keep your friends close and your enemies closer"  Is that what this is?  I don't want him.  She doesn't want him - won't go into what i know, but i know she is not available to him even though she lives there still.  Not my business to share, but the situation isn't good for either one but he asked for it.   She reaches out more than i do, but i engage with her daily, as i said.  We vent, we talk about future plans, things we want to do, and pretty much support each other.  She is more prim and reserved until she gets mad.  She's a tiny little thing and she is just as confused about her attraction to Mr. Cigar as i am.  I call him the devil.  He turns on the charm and you don't see all the bullshit he's feeding you. I do feel like it's be...

Temu problem

 I know this is a bad way to shop, and i have fallen into the trap of "ooooh i want that and it's SO cheap".  Kinda like Walmart used to be.   I have been on a no shopping or impulse buying mission and most of the time I am able to control myself.  I go a little wild at the thrift stores though, sometimes spending a whopping $30 which to me, is excessive without purpose. Ha. That couch was a steal.  Best thing i ever purchased, aside from the $50 solid wood entertainment wall.  It has so much storage and shelving and fits my television perfectly.  Those things used to be thousands and i paid $50.  Score.   Anyways, i use my desk constantly and it's very crowded.  It also fits in the corner perfectly and anything else would be too large.  I've tried to figure out how to get more space and i've come to the conclusion that my monitor needs to be off the desk.  Enter temu.  $15 and now i will have added shelf space a...
