The Good

*Bought myself mixed greens, gorgonzola, granny smith apples, and walnut pieces the other day to make a salad together with oil and red wine vinegar for dressing, and today I'm having my third salad of the week!

*Brando has been letting me lean on him (again). Fortunately, he didn't let me fall, so when he had to back off this morning, I was able to right myself. He texted me this morning that perhaps I should go spend the summer with my parents, and when I told him they wouldn't let me, suggested moving across the street with KT just to get my head on straight. Something in me snapped in at that moment and I realized as crappy of a time as I'm having adjusting, at least I'm conscious. I haven't given up, like I did last time. Yes, I'm miserable right now, but it'll get better. It always does. Plus, I would miss him. Maybe not the kids right now, but definitely him. And I texted him so, and we've had a fabulous day since.

*The boys have found their own independence here, which gives my brain a little break. I taught JT how to text this afternoon and they have my cell phone and are off at the business center, texting me via email. My favorite so far? " : ) love you "

*The boys actually did their chores completely today for the first time since we moved!! Yay!!

*The boys helped me clean out the car completely.

*The boys and I made $30 hauling our crap to a friend's garage sale. Now we're saving the rest to have one of our own! I love teaching the boys the value of getting rid of stuff!

*Brando took me on a late night date last night to the D*main at a new place, N*rth, where I had a delicious White Peach Prosecco, he had a mojito, and we shared garlic ciabatta bread with hummus, goat cheese, and pesto.

*Going to a friend's pool party tonight! Can't wait! Speaking of, I'm off to go get ready.

*Oh, and according to a pregnancy test I took last night I'm not pregnant!! Whoo! Still don't have my period which worries me, but perhaps it's the stress. Hopefully, it'll come soon (never thought I'd utter that sentence in reference to that time of the month).
