Trials and the Tribe

Well, here we go again. I'm kinda unlucky in love. As of last Thursday I'm officially single again. Believe you me, I'm no Liz Taylor. I have had a terrible time marrying a man that can stay with one woman. So I found my big girl pants and put them on. What else is a gal to do? My brother once said I could fall through a pile of poop and come out smelling like a rose so that's my goal here.
But...........a month ago I met someone very awesome, kind, gentle and beautiful. We have a lot of fun hanging out together and after a year and a half of being alone it's nice to have someone that wants to do stuff. Hiked into Morrell Falls last Saturday, in the rain, and had such a good time. It was just what the doctor ordered and I didn't even mind the rain one bit.
Gracie is getting ready to turn 7. It's amazing that she's that old. Didn't I just have her yesterday? She will be spending her birthday and Thanksgiving with her dad so the boys and I have a spectacular surprise weekend waiting for her when she gets back.
Shane is a skateboarding fool. The other night he went out in the dark with his friend and rumor has it they were 'feeling the wind.' That means they were cruising around in their boxers. Guys, it's November in Montana!
Cameron is shopping for a new exhaust system for the Monte. He's going to have that car so beautiful some day that he may not want to drive it for fear of a scratch or ding. I love to sit with him and listen to all his plans.
My Christmas shopping for the kids is done. I'm so excited to get that out of the way. Now all I need to finish up is the stocking stuffers and getting gift cards to send out for everyone else. Just seems crazy to send presents in the mail these days.
Well that's it for now. Later Gators!
