Assumptions

So I was having a conversation with somebody about something that was really hard for me and they made me out to be the bad guy.  When I explained their perspective was off they came back with a whole different thing about the story they didn't like while criticizing me and telling me I need to take some responsibility.  This isn't my fault yet somehow I am dealing with the consequences.  Those who are my closest friends know the details and have been supportive.  Nobody else has even bothered to ask thereby assuming I am at fault.  It is overwhelming and sad when you realize people are making assumptions that aren't based in fact just based on their idea of what happened. I should know better this isn't the first time somebody has assumed something about me that wasn't true. But this time it seemed to hurt worse. 

Dying changes everything almost dying changes nothing

One of my friends text me everything happens for a reason.  I so disagree.  Usually I can find some reason but there is no reason why my little Duke should have been pined under his grandmother's car.  I am still struggling with it.  I am not the only one.  He still won't put any real weight on his right foot.  Today was the first day with out meds. Scabs are falling off , right foot is still missing half the skin.    I had a revelation about what happened that night I feel like I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that Dukes grandparents on the other side were there.  I see it in my mind so vividly how they intervened.  It is crazy.  It isn't just something I made up in my mind but it is like I was there watching it happen. It has been a tough week emotionally but somehow life goes on.  We contacted our insurance who will be taking care of the medical portion of the bills. So glad I no longer have to worry about that.  We will right the other portion out later. I haven

Spur of the moment

Lee FSo last night I was chatting with my friend.  She was overwhelmed and had some stuff going on so I talked to Lee and he said why don't you go see her.  So today before I could talk myself out of it I booked a ticket for the first weekend in May.  I feel a little sad because next weekend I will be running in Utah and then I work the following weekend and then the next weekend I will be in Phoenix.  I won't feel sad once I am there I am sure.  I got of work over an hour later then scheduled and then driving home the car died.  Like no power no anything.
