I don't know why, I really don't, but this post made me cry. Ugh sweetie...I'm sorry you had to get through that, I'm happy for you and them that there is this moment of grace (wonderful vows), and I'm happy that you seem ok with maintaining the semi-required strings.
He does live in a much less poverty-stricken way since he's been at K's place, but then again he was awfully proud of the van we borrowed from him... and every time I drove that thing I was thinking 1) this is poverty right here in my hands and 2) I think I'm about to die.
Do I ever know what you're talking about. It reminded me of when I went to visit my mom the last time before when J and I saw her together. What sent me over the edge was her gushing about how great her place was and getting there and finding that there was no heat other than a space heater and that I'd be sleeping on the floor under moving blankets (diesel fume headache anyone?) I just had to smile and say 'yes, it's wonderful' with bits of me dying inside.
