Moving On

You know, I don't know who wrote the comment, but I assure you it was not wanting "space" that caused them to throw me out.  However, of course, I will forgive my son, even though I am certain it will be a while before we speak again.  And that is okay.  This goes a lot deeper than "space".  Actually, I think there were underlying circumstances of which I was unaware before I got to NC.  Also, I am not certain that my son actually communicated to his fiancee/now wife, the same thing he was communicating to me.  But, it is neither here no there now.  I will be fine and they will be fine, whatever they do.  Life is way, way too short to get caught up in name calling and blaming.  It, like some marriages, just didn't work out.  I do think, however, that the parting could have been better - along with back pay, pay back for money spent for food for the bistro, or even the tips that were on credit card.  Silly, silly me.  It is okay, though, I will live without it.  Of course, I love my son deeply, I just saw a side of him I did not realize existed.  Certainly, we will both come through it okay.  Meanwhile, I am wandering again (luckily, I saw a banner the other day that said "all who wander are not lost".  That is good, because I certainly am not lost.  I was granted a great sense of humor and survival, so I will be visiting family for a while, seeing what I can do for them in exchange for their wonderful support and then returning to Florida to look for a job and find a place to live!  The insane part is that I will be in the cold from now through December (just the time most people go to Florida).  Oh well, no one ever said I did things in the right order.  Gina is enjoying the weather and the resident dog here and tomorrow I will actually start swimming again to regain what sanity I have left.  So, life, as usual, is pretty good - you know, there are always some little quirks along the way to keep us on our toes.  Thanks for checking.  Ricci
