Breaking Up Is Hard To Do!
So, it's July 31.....summer is two-thirds over already!! It is pouring rain.....again. The street in front of my house looks like a river. Saturday morning it rained for 4 straight hours.....unheard of in the desert Southwest. We need the rain, of course.....we have been in an extreme drought for nearly a year.
Last week was extremely busy and hectic.....I apologize for not posting. I sat down to write yesterday, but the words were not flowing. Jose and I spent a good chunk of time moving Barbara and her family into a new house. They had all been living in Barbara's 2-bedroom apartment, her mother, father, and their three grandchildren who they have now adopted. Barbara's sister (the kids' mother) is a drug addict who has been in and out of jail, along with her drug addict husband and they lost custody of the kids. Barbara's parents have taken on the responsibility of raising the three kids and recently adopted them. Those kids are a handful and Barbara's parents are not in the best of health......It's a good thing Barbara is there to help out, yet Barbara has her own set of health issues. She is a diabetic who is in renal failure and gets dialysis 3 times a week. Her cousin was going to donate a kidney to her and started going through all the testing, but later backed out. Barbara has a male friend in Ohio who just found out he might be a match and may come out to Tucson for testing. Jose is not a match.....he was the first one to be tested. I would only give my kidney to a family member or Jose.......Jose helps out Barbara's family whenever they need him......he is very generous with his time and money. I like Barbara's mom.....she is pretty cool.
On to other things........Jose and I broke up last Wednesday night. It lasted about 45 minutes, but it was a genuine 45 minutes. I accused him of cheating (he's not) and he said if I didn't trust him, maybe we better just end this relationship. And we did!! For 45 minutes! Jose and I have had a lot of problems in our short, 6-year history. We went to counseling for a year in 2004-2005 and it did help us to communicate better. But it's been about a year since we stopped counseling and we have stopped communicating again. We have really just stopped interacting at all lately and I think I've been trying to jar us awake for the last month or two. I really did think he might be cheating.....I figured that would explain his lack of interest in me (sexually and communicative). So I really challenged him Wednesday night and brought it all to a head. It was a good thing I did because we have made up and had passionate sex like we haven't had in years!! And we are communicating again! I feel like we rejuvinated our relationship. Will it last? That remains to be seen.....I hope so. I really do love him and want this relationship to work out. We have always planned to spend the rest of our lives together.....I'm still holding out for that. Only time will tell.......
Molly has not called me to tell me how her test went. I don't know what that means.....but I have a bad feeling. More to come......
