What a weekend. What a bombshell. I don’t know how I feel about it yet. <\/p>\n
It’s been a bit of a crazy week. I went from puttering around on the TCZ site to gung ho make a lot of changes to it at once and then go live with it in just a few days. It’s been a whirlwind, and it seems to be going over okay. It did turn out well if I do say so myself. Just a few minor tweaks here and there to go, and then I can start adding new features that people are coming up with. I wish I could get my bellydancer to write me back. I finally got her site up and running, domain and all, and now it’s been five days since she’s written. I hope she’s just away or something.<\/p>\n
Anyway, so the family (that would be me, my cousin, his wife, and my grandparents) had a garage sale at my grandparent’s house this weekend. I took Friday off to help out with it which meant getting up at 5.30am (ugh!) and it went all right. Very tiring and on top of it all I had the most horrendous cramps. Ohhhh no she’s talking about periods and such – Ewww. Well deal with it – that pain was awful. And unusual for me. I never get cramps like that so I’m wondering where these came from. I couldn’t even stand up straight. <\/p>\n
Anyway, at the sale also was Ida’s (my cousin’s wife) sister, Sherry. My uncle stopped by as well, mainly to drop the bombshell: he is now dating Sherry. It’s been a bare 6 months since his wife, my beloved aunt, died. Apparently they have been dating for about a month and a half now. She’s riding around in the truck my aunt rode around in when she was well. She’s probably over at my aunt’s house, spending the night, invading her space. <\/p>\n
My question is why the hell are men so quick to jump into the next relationship? If my spouse of over 20 years had just died a few months ago, I’d be gutted for a long time. My mother mourned for my dad for years – until the day she died in fact. And what makes this doubly awkward is the fact that the woman he’s seeing is his wife’s son’s sister-in-law. In relation to me, it’s my cousin’s wife’s sister. The one who was in prison. Not jail, but the actual state penitentiary. So fucked up. I still can’t quite get my head around this. Yesterday at the sale he came driving up with her in his truck and it stung. <\/p>\n
I just don’t think it’s right. It’s too soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
