I am just really sad today. February marks four years since my ex wife and I split.

I have not handled the last four years with any grace, only selfish activities that provided moments of happiness but ultimately sadness.

I am now trying to be a better person, but some days I just feel like a victim and I know that's not productive.

Thanks for letting me vent.

It sounds silly, but this new PJ album is going to be a good distraction for me.

So, since Wendy’s been gone, I’ve been using a 40 pack roll of outside trash bags for all the trash receptacles in the home. I think it’s a waste of trash bags to not use them, and they have already been used and worked throughout the time she’s been away. I just tie it on the end of the can and…voila. It’s trash bag. I even took out a full trash bag with the outside bags in front of her. She doesn’t like any of this.

Thanks. It gets better for a bit and then it doesn’t. I know I can move on.

Today I shoveled a bunch of slop

Yesterday, I cleaned the cobwebs out of my basement. Today it was sunny down there.

But still slop outside

Kind of a hectic morning today, but seems like things are slowing down now. Pleased about that.

Was able to buff out some scuffs on the Tesla with just water and Magic Eraser. Had been bugging me since I caught the side of the garage backing in last week. Combo of not parking there for several weeks and getting out of practice and my neighbors inevitably getting used to our car not being there and parking like jerks.

Yeah it felt terrible doing it. Surprised I was able to let the repair job go this long since I’m pretty OCD about such things. Guess it’s been a busy first week of the year.
