Officially starting the annual winter shutdown today – trying really, really hard not to run down to the gas station and buy a pack of cigarettes.
Seems oddly appropriate that the first snowfall to stick (for a bit, at least) would come today. Cross your fingers for me. I’m not too confident in this years attempt. Especially since I all ready quit twice since the beginning of November.
Hoping that having written this down will cause me to pause before I open my wallet again… We’ll see!
I am seriously considering just crawling into a hole for the next 6 months and not coming out until the landscape has changed…
I don’t necessarily think I’d think it was so great if I were the bride, but I have to admit, this makes me laugh out loud.
“and you said I know that this will hurt
but if I don’t break your heart then things will just get worse
If the burden seems too much to bear
Remember
the end will justify the pain it took to get us there”
Tell ‘em anything you want to, just don’t tell ‘em all the truth.
Happy Thanksgiving to you, Powers. Hope it was lovely for you. I wanted to say thank you for giving me the opportunity to have such amazing friends, who make a point of coming together for fun and fellowship and things like that. I needed it right now, more than I could ever say.
Once again, I have a favor to ask you. I’d appreciate very much if you’d let up every extra little bit of strength that you don’t have bookmarked for some other purpose. I think I may need it now more than ever. I’m a glass half-empty, chicken-little, naturally cynical person, I know that. I understand that I’m more melodramatic than is necessary, most of the time. Therefore I am aware and grateful for the people who choose to associate with me, regardless.
I’ve done a great job over the last couple of years, of building up an airtight resume, and surrounding myself with the best and the brightest of this generation (if I do say so myself). And I truly believe that we could continue on this path and make many amazing discoveries about ourselves, each other, this town, this life in general, if given the chance. And I really hope to be a part of that.
So please, if you have any compassion at all, you’ll have my back during these difficult times, and help me through, wherever the chips fall. This last little jibe here is almost more than I can take from you, after all we’ve been through together. I don’t know if I can take it, if this all falls apart on me. I really don’t.
As always, I guess this letter is to say I’ve got my eye on you. Don’t screw this up.
Regards,
Betsy Rose
What am i suppose to do when the best part of me was always you?
What am i suppose to say when i’m all choked up and you’re ok?
I’m falling to pieces.
