whenever my friends come down for the weekend, i get SO SO SO sad when they leave and continue on with life...and i stay here and continue on with school. i'm very much ready to be donezo with school & winona & the lack of family down here.
i have horribly sad news, mandy went off the deep end & moved the kids to wisconsin. baldwin, wisconsin. which is an hour away, w/o traffic. this may sound easy for a lot of people & i'm SO HAPPY that it's only that far away. but for me, my whole family lives together and even though we have drama some times...we don't pack up and leave for no reason. i can't believe she took them away from us. their only family and stability.
i've been trying really hard to give this one to God, but it's so hard for me trust that they'll be ok without a weekly update from my mom or anna (when she babysat). because those are truthful updates, not fake phone ones.
on friday afternoon, i have having a GREAT day. i set up an interview with this internship that i want SO BADLY, followed by one of the worst phone calls ever telling me that my wayne & olive are moving to wisconsin. it was the highest (besides alyssa's engagement) & lowest news of this year, so far. i thought about it all weekend, i talked to wayne on the phone on saturday and he sounded excited. but i'm so scared. and i can't concentrate on school or anything.
i haven't told anybody but you girls, but i just find it so hard to even say. 3 days later it still hurts, but i realize it's NOT the end of the world. and wayne & olive could never forget all the love we have for them. all i hear is wayne saying during one of his mom's arguments, "if mom leaves, take olive and i want to stay with you". it makes me so scared that he won't have me there to protect him. he's only 6 but i wish i could buy him a cell phone and for him to be old enough to call me and tell me everything. the thing that hurts the most is that mandy did not & has not yet told me that she's moving. she's pulling wayne outta school, taking olive, quitting her job and moving outta state. she didn't bother to call me or tell mom, my mom found out through mandy's roommate jennifer and told me.
not to dump this on you, but i needed to tell you & i still cry when i try to explain it to people.
please pray for their protection and mandy's mental & emotional stability. this is entirely in God's hands and He will make good out of it.
storms. i love them a lot, and i also love watching stormchasers. sundays are AWESOME on discovery.
