No Longer in the Ghetto
It has been forever, I know. How much has changed in a little over a year you ask? Well, for starters:
-- I no longer live in the freakin' ghetto. I finally moved out of Joel's place and back into my own wonderful house which I spent a ton of money remodeling.
-- I'm back to teaching. I interviewed like crazy in Spring 2007 and finally got a job teaching 2nd grade in the District 27J.
-- I am still not dating, but thinking about it. Just have to work on putting myself out there. I just can't help but think about the last time I found someone through match.com, fell head over heels, and it didn't work out. The memories still haunt me, and it was only a month we went out in 2003. Five years ago.
-- My ex-husband is still married to that Tammy chick and they have a baby girl who will be 1 in August. They are expecting another one in December.
This last bit of news makes me somewhat depressed. I don't know why I can't seem to move on. I'm not sure how I'm ever supposed to meet anyone. I don't go anywhere or do anything, and I just feel like I'm going to be alone for the rest of my life. I've got Ty for now, who will be 3 years old in one more week. But one day he'll be grown up and it'll be just me. At least I hate cats so I can avoid that cliche.
This will be my last post here, seeing as how I no longer live in the ghetto. And here's something funny: Yesterday Ty was crying in the car "I don't wanna go to Papa's house!" I told him he needed to tell his daddy to buy a new house. So as soon as we pull up to the trailer and I open the car door, Joel comes out and Ty screams at him "Buy a new house Papa!" It was cute and heartbreaking at the same time. I can only thank the Goddess that my son has at least one nice home in a decent neighborhood. I will never live in the ghetto again.
