Tough Thing
11 months ago
It’s harder than it looks.
I think the key is to keep busy: Stay on the move and keep moving forward. Throw out all that clutter that’s jamming you up. Live simply. Definitely work out.
Once you stop doing those things, you start looking back again. You notice that you’re lonely (even though you might have been lonely while you were in the relationship). You feel like you’re getting nowhere.
Just keep moving forward.

Imagine me and you, I do
I think about you day and night, it’s only right
To think about the girl you love and hold her tight
So happy together
If I should call you up, invest a dime
And you say you belong to me and ease my mind
Imagine how the world could be, so very fine
So happy together
I can’t see me lovin’ nobody but you
For all my life
When you’re with me, baby the skies’ll be blue
For all my life

Take Action.
19 months ago
I still need to be an awesome papa bear to my girls, even though they are 21 & almost 19.
If there’s been any sort of silver lining to the heartbreak of divorce, it’s that my girls have been really good. Supportive. Sweet.
I have to clear out lots of clutter that’s accumulated.
Got some things to fix up. Got some projects to start on.
I’m on my own, but I can do it. Just start!

But I’m thinkin ‘bout gettin a Ford Focus… It has to be a Ford.
I like small cars, and it’ll come in handy around here.
I’d like a stick, but probably an automatic.
Maybe yet this month.

Clearing clutter out of your life clears the way for good things to come.

Took a break.
19 months ago
I worked out too hard a week ago, and had to take a break.
So now, time to start over. This time, I’ll pace myself.
That wasn’t a good feeling.

Think good thoughts.
Pray for her to have good health and happiness.

I would like for this trail of tears to end.
I have to take action.
I CAN be alone.
I have to get my house in order.
Ain’t no future in the past.

this works as well as anything else:
“don’t look back.”

the tears are pretty much over. once in a while a sob, but i catch myself. i’m numb and i think i’m slippin back into denial again.
i’m unsure how i should feel about it.
...feel 12 different ways.
so for now, i’m just “making steps forward…”

i go to the gym bout 5 days a week.
focusing on cardio first. i like the elliptical machines.
familiarizing myself with the equipment, and meekly lifting weights.
i thought i could get myself fit in 6 weeks… now, i’m thinkin more like 3-6 months.
but i like going, i have the time, and i’m motivated!
cheers welcome!!!

“if you’re going through hell… keep on going!”
this has been THE rough patch in my life. and it’s creating a ripple effect. my beautiful daughter is having a relationship problem and she is handling it the SAME WAY i do/did… being broken, lost, anxious, and tearful.
i feel kinda like i’m drowning, and pulling others down with me.
don’t want that.
and i’m not livin in the moment. i’m not doing what i should be doing. seeking god’s will for my future. instead, i’m hiding, and looking for comfort through distraction.
i’m tryin to force myself through this, when i should be just feeling it. and experiencing it. and working out the lessons, which i don’t want to know anyway.
i don’t wanna face it.
