I've been thinking (oh my!)

I will take this opportunity to update my blog while I await Mister Kelly's homecoming from hanging out with friends. How could he not come home to delicious spaghetti & meatballs dinner!
I have been doing much thinking the past couple of weeks. A good friend of mine (bob) would always tell me "let the game come to you". So, I am going to take his advice. (yes bob, I do listen to you sometimes) I am going to try to be patient, keep smiling and be happy and then wait for the game to come to me. Maybe another way to say this is I am going to have faith. If it is meant to be it will happen. And the result, happiness & friendship forever! No, not a fairy tale. When you know something feels right and is meant to be then the rest is easy.
Tonight Joe and I planned to attend a Christmas party , we were going to get there just before it was over but wanted to attend anyway. I hear Connie can put on a good party. Because I could not find the building we missed out. Maybe if I had a Tom Tom GPS System I would have been able to find it and we would have made it in time. Poor Joe, missed out because his mom can't find her way around town. :)
And this last entry is for those of you that know me and know what kind of mother I am. I got a call today at 4:30. A dinner invitation. At first I thought it was an invitation that included my family. Ok, I will consider that. But as the conversation continued I realized it was not as I first thought. The invitation was for me to have dinner at this persons house and let Stephen watch his brother for the evening. That struck me the wrong way. I am thinking oh my goodness, if you think my son has come home from college to be a caretaker for his brother so I can go out is absolutely insane. I am a bit appalled that a man would take it upon himself to suggest I use my son to watch his brother so he might gain something. Big mistake. Big mistake. It just goes back to what I keep saying. Most of the men I meet have one thing on their agenda. Even to the point of using my kid to make that happen.
I know my level of expectation is very high, but if you don't have values & rules then you end up with dysfunction. My way will work out one day. Just have faith Mellie, just have faith.
