Just so you all don't think I'm the only one that does really stupid things that can't be explained, here's another story I would like to share. I'm not going to name the person, that wouldn't be nice.
Person A had been running errands with her mother and stopped at the store. Now keep in mind that her mother is sitting in the passenger seat and does not drive. When Person A came out of the store, having bought nothing: she looked at the car next to hers, opened the back door and sat in the back seat. Her mother looked at her and Person A said, she had no idea why she was sitting there. Her mother thought she opened the back door to put stuff in the back seat.
Something not quiet so bad: someone I know in the past week or so has worn their glasses or socks into the shower a number of times.
It must be something in the air that is making us forget to do what we are really suppose to be doing. There is no other way to explain it.

Back From My Mini-Vacation
I came home yesterday from my mini vacation totally exhausted but I had a great time.
On Sunday we went to Atlantic City for about 4 hours and then we out to eat at Big Ed's. Great BBQ rib place. All you can eat ribs.
On Monday, Sharon and I planned a route to go looking for Lighthouses. I like lighthouses and she likes taking pictures so it works out well. We had a wonderful time acting silly and everything. We stop at 4 lighthouses. We even had a police escort to one of them. We asked for direction, and the cop said, "follow me".
Pictures will follow. I have to have mine deveoped and Sharon is going to create me a CD of the pictures she took.
On Tuesday, Sharon and I went to Hershey. If you are a choc-a-holic, this is the place for you. Chocolate everything. We didn't do any of the shows but they have a 3-D show. Can you image having Chocolate bars coming at you in 3D? I don't know - I think I would have dreams about that. After going to Hershey, we decided to go to Philly so Sharon could go to the Hard Rock Cafe and get a shirt and get a shot glass for Julie. We stopped at a little store on our way and a the guy there told us a different way to go then what we had planned.
When we made it to Philly and then to Market Street, which by the way has a building in the middle of it - we did find the Hard Rock Cafe.
We left at 10 in the morning and didn't get back to Julie's until a little after 8pm.
We came home yesterday and I was exhausted but it was a good exhausted. I'm not use to being on the go like that. But, alas, it's back to work but only for 2 days.

Stupidity 101
Can any of you beat this for stupid things "I" have done?
I was getting ready to leave on Saturday afternoon/early evening to go to Sharon's and then we were headed to NJ to spend a few days with Julie.
I was running behind schedule and not being fully focused on what I was doing (making sure I had everything I needed and thinking out some things that Robert and I talked about) when I got into the car to leave I didn't close the door. Now, most of us when we get in the car, automatically close the door and never give it a second thought. Well, I never did give a second thought to closing the car door but the problem is, I never did close it. I started to back out of the garage when the car stop aburptly (sp). The door, leaving a hole in the garage wall.
Now - is there anyone out there that can beat this stupid act?

What I realized tonight
I was making some notes befoe therapy tonight and realized that despite or because of all the crap that has happened in my life, I'm who I am today. I am most likely a much stronger person then I would ever have been if I didn't need to go through this healing process. Not that I wish this upon anyone but throughout the years I have struggled to rebuild my life and I can honestly say that I am happy for the first time in I don't know how long. I am in love with a very caring and understanding guy. I think I am really in love for the very first time - this feels so much different then when I was married the first time and thought I was in love. I probably was in love, just in a different way.
It is so different to have a connection with someone, to be able to talk to someone about anything, to know that someone really cares about you and is concerned. It's hard to really explain that really good feeling that I have inside - but it's there and I don't want to lose it.

Trust and Courage
I sucked up all the courage I had yesterday, after many hours of internal struggle, and gave Robert my razor blade. It was one of the hardest things I had to do. In a way it was giving up a safety net. Not that I was going to use it, but it was always there. I knew if things ever got really bad, I could turn to it. I wasn't suppose to but I could and deal with the consequences later.
I decided that what I needed to do was to hand it over to Robert. He knows about my past, he knows about my issues with drinking and cutting. It's up to me to tell him when I'm having a hard time and when I need more help. He might not be the right one to help me but he needs to know.
I also told him he could keep beer in the house but he doesn't want to tempt me. Again, it is really up to me to let him know when I'm having a hard time.
