Wow, only if life were as easy to delete as my past blog posts were! I am starting anew (how many times have I said that?). Dating a guy named Mike Graves...he's actually been living with me and the boys, BUT he is moving out next week.

The boys (Lj - 13 & Ely - 10) and I are doing well. They are hanging out listening to music and playing video games. However, we have new life changes coming our way. The boys have decided they want to live in Minneapolis, MN with their father beginning this summer. I am in shock due to this life-altering decision. They have been with me, well, since before they were born. It will definitely take some getting used to. I guess there comes a time in life when boys just need to be with their dads. Jim is a great father and they like the woman who lives with him a lot. They'll even be taking their pets (Cali the calico cat and Bryce' the 1/2 springer spaniel 1/2 border collie dog). Add them to the cockatiel (Speck) they already have in MN and they'll have a perfect mini managerie. So I will be going from live-in boyfriend and 2 children to rattling around this house all by myself at the end of this school year. The idea is still surreal at the moment. It won't sink in until it all takes place. I have never had a time in my adult life where I lived totally alone and had only myself to take care of. This will be a very interesting time in my life. I will try to keep posting now to get used to the idea so that the kids can check on me whenever they want while living in MN. I'll have to add some pictures and such of how life is going.

Currently, I belong nowhere and do nothing but tend to people. Like I said, life-altering events taking place here. I did begin going to St. Mary's Episcopal church again. It is the church where me and both of my boys were baptized, back when I was married to Jim and my life was as close to normal as it has ever been. Last Sunday was my first Sunday back. They only meet at 5pm on Sundays. It is a very small church and the priest comes down from Trinity Episcopal in Pine Bluff to do the service. Check out www.trinitychurchpb.org.
