Peachy. My mother & I planned on going to the Renaissance Festival tomorrow, just me & her since my step dad has to work. Well, he doesn't want to miss out so he's doing everything he can to go. Now I'm not irritated by this because I want my mother all to myself. I'm irritated because he usually makes me feel like he doesn't want me around. That's what I want, to go to Ren Fest & be treated like a piece of crap... NOT! (Thank God they serve alcohol) He'd better be in a good mood tomorrow, because if he's not & he wants to be a jerk it'll be on like Donkey Kong! And if he wants to leave at 5:30 in the morning he's got another thing coming!!!

Look I know he's a truck driver with a crappy job. He's had to work a few of the past weekends & he gets no vacation time. And he loves the Ren Fest. I believe he has a right to go, & I even believe he has a right to go with my mother all by themselves. But this is my weekend. I just don't want him to piss all over it. That's all.

I don't know what to say about this festival weekend or about your step dad. But, you have such a beautiful, funny, sweetly sarcastic, intelligent, witty mind. I don't know where you are, or where you are going in your life, but I sense you underestimate who you are. I see something very bright, and very beautiful in you. If you need to be reminded just let me know.

Kathleen, you're adorable. Where I am at in my life? I guess transition & starting over new... again. And as frustrated as I get I'm a lot happier than I've been in years.

As for the festival, my step dad did NOT go & we had a good time. I hate to say it, but I was glad he didn't go with us. After all, the whole thing was that since he couldn't go my mother asked me to go with her. I think there are three weekends left & if he takes my mother to every one of them, then good for them. I hope they have a good time. I wish he could understand that I don't want to take my mother away from him, I just want to spend some time with her occasionally. And if he wasn't such a jerk I wouldn't mind spending time with him either. But who wants to be around someone that deliberately makes you feel bad?
