It’s my husbands ex-wife. The mother of my children…well…my step children.
Yeah…I kinda tease about her here on my blog. But I can. It’s MY blog. She’s MY ex-wife…kinda. And…it’s anything goes pretty much, when it comes to blogfodder.
But right now, I’m so sad for her.
She has NEVER had it easy, the entire time I’ve known her. Some of it is choices she’s made and some of it…just shit luck.
However…
On the most part, over the last few years…she’s been trying REALLY hard.
She has had the same job for 5 or 6 years. Which is a record…even for a lot of people!
Recently, she moved out of the basement of her Mothers house, where she had been living for a couple of years. She rented an apartment close by to my house…to be closer to her children.
She’s been there 1 month. And she was so proud that she was trying to do it…to make it… on her own…for once.
And I was truly, so happy for her.
Until…
Today, she called me.
Crying.
Laid off.
And my heart broke for her. Because she has been trying SO HARD to get her life together. And it’s been so tough for her. Again…choices she made haven’t been the best. But still. She is so worried about disappointing her children.
She is so sad that her life just isn’t working out the way she ever imagined it would.
She is alone.
And I feel so sorry for her and it’s breaking my heart because really…
when it comes down to it…
she is one of the kindest, sweetest people I know…
And I would just like to see, for once, something REALLY GOOD happen for her.
Because she is so good to everyone. Seriously. The way my husbands family sucks to my three kids…she is THAT good to them. And to me.
It just is so sad that someone who has such a big heart…has such crappy things go on in her life!
So…just think positive thoughts for this woman, would you please?
She needs it right now.
Thank You!!
I am sending positive thoughts her way… THat was a very nice post for you to write!
I feel like crying. I hope she finds something. I think all of Michigan is getting laid off. Give her our best with hopes that she soon finds another position.
Sending prayers her way! What a very nice post and thoughts from you…
Will Do…it’s hard when things happen that are your fault…but even worse when they are completely out of your control…..I hope she’ll stay strong…and not go back to her old habits….it’s too easy to run and hide…..here’s ome good thoughts heading her way….
That just plain old….SUCKS!! I feel bad for her.
Damn you are a good person, you know that?
