Dear X

Dear Self,
It's nothing to beat yourself up over. It would've happened sooner, but the opportunity never came up. You can take it for what it is, or you can let it eat you up. Word of advice, don't pick the latter.

Sincerely,
The relatively sensible side of yourself

Dear sensible side,

Right on girl!!!!

Signed,

always can use good advice
 
Dear You,

you don't know how often I just want to wake you up so I can have more of you

love, Me

Dear Me

(this creates something of an existencial crisis as I compose this...).

Wake him up...he'll be glad you did,

signed,
wish I were him

(now I'm really confused...;) )

Dear You,

I often find myself in a similar situation. There is never enough time, it seems. Or the timing is just off.

Sincerely,

Dear Cat

(Yes, I know this is my second post to you - you should feel special.)

You are an asshole. Attacking my hair at 3:00 a.m. nearly got you flung across the room like a rag doll -not because I am capable of great violence, simply because I was pretty sure you were a giant spider attacking me. I am pretty sure you knew this though. Your attack on the dog at 4:00 a.m. nearly gotten you eaten alive - you know she's a sound sleeper. If she wants to play with you, she will WHEN SHE IS AWAKE! Your decision to play cat bowling with empty boxes at 5:00 a.m. nearly got you thrown outside with the coyotes. I think there will have to be something worked out in the divorce decree that wherever kid goes on overnights you go too.

Sincerely,

Sleep-deprived Fermina

P.S. - Your attempt to cuddle at 6:00 a.m. when my alarm went off, did nothing to erase all above asshole behavior. Still an asshole.

Dear soon to be ex in-laws,

Thank you for watching my son overnight so we could attend a Coping for Divorce class required by the State. Also, thank you for deciding to explain "divorce" to my 6-year-old son who is now devastated and has now been crying almost every waking moment (aside from the times I can distract him with nonstop video games and play dates and then passes out from) and then passes out from crying jags. Your son and I had it under control, but I guess you felt he needed someone to blame (me). So after this weekend of painting I'm going to stop focusing on getting this house up for sale and refocus on fixing the damage you to did to my child and building back up his trust in me - and if it means having to live even longer in this screwed up situation so be it.

P.S. - I will now be adding that "right of first refusal" clause in our divorce decree so that may have been your last overnight. You can blame me for that also.

Yours for not much longer,
Angry mama

Oh fuck. I'm so sorry :(
 
Dear You,
I can't help but to laugh and shake my head at the fact that you being such a good looking and charming asshole plays in your favor almost every time no matter where you go. I know I'm being hypocritical, but commit to your girl. Holy fuck.
 
Dear food,
I like you! I like you too much! But we have to slow it down because now, after hanging out with you so much, I have to hang out with exercise. I don't like exercise because it means that lazy can't come by and hang out.
So please don't be upset, food, but now you must wear an ankle monitor. My thoughts be with you, but I can't be as much as I would like.
See ya!
 
Dear- X

As if divorce and the whole custody thing isn't enough soon to be ex-in law's have to throw in a wrench. I am so sorry someone/anyone is going through this. I am so sorry a child is hurt and confused. so, big hugs. And reassurance. It WILL be OK. Just keep being a great MOM. A loving MOM. Smile when you want to say something wicked. Practice biting your tongue as difficult as that is. In the end YOU are a survivor. And so is that little one :). Just a message from a random stranger of encouragement and support. I have semi-sorta been there.

I have to admit. I love this!
 
Let's see what good can come my way.

Dear Universe,

Please send some good. Please let the supplements help because we don't have any other options and saying goodbye would hurt too much. Please don't make me hold my sons while they mourn another grandfather this year.

Please send me pleasant clients with easy purchases so I can pay the bills and have some breathing room.

I know all of this is possible. I'd love some joy in the house for the rest of the year. Please!

Love,

A Tired Mama
 
Dear Body,

OK stop the PAIN... I need rest if I going to get better. no sleep for 35 hours... is no fun.. stop the pain
 
Dear Angel,

The sun is shining, the sky is sapphire blue, and... I'm trying not to think of you.

Today should be your first birthday. I should be making a smash cake and being giddy with joy. But the gods had other plans for you.

I miss you even though I'm trying not to...

:heart:
Momma



Dear Doc,

I have never wanted to physically harm someone as much as I want to hurt you. How dare you play god with my grandmother's life?! She told you her concerns for several discolored areas of skin... and your response was, "at your age, why worry?" Weeks later, she's diagnosed by a specialist (that she went around you to see) with cancer. Radiation treatment starts tomorrow.

The best and worst thing I can possibly wish is this- the wheel turns and you get what you have dished out.

Shaking Mad
