My Journey of Personal growth

The day with the kids is a little bit tough, but not bad. Me and the girls went to the garage sales around town and got a few things. I found it to be a nice couple of hours. When I got back I was dragged by Terri's youngest daughter outside so that we could dance together,lol. We were twirling and doing fancy stuff, lol. Terri's son was acting out and being rude, negative, and pooey when we got back. He didn't want to go to the yard sales btw. So I talked to him for a bit. He kept being negative, and shooting down all my ideas for things to do. Eventually we found something. I kept my cool which was difficult at times and it paid off. So as were doing something, and dividing my time among the kids her daughter gets upset. She wanted all my time....the kids aren't very good at sharing me. Even when we try to do activities where we can all have fun. So she went upstairs and wouldn't talk to me when I went to check up & talk to her. She ended up going to sleep in her bed. I checked again on her a couple more times to see if she was ok or wanting to talk or do something together. Me and Terri's son had our time...

Terri finally came home around 3 and I told her the issue with her daughter. So she went up to her bedroom, where she finally talked, and said she was sad that I was leaving monday :( She's depressed a bit...

 Now Terri and her are laying in bed sleeping together for a bit. I didn't ask where she went or what she did. It's her business, and really it doesnt matter right now. She did say on her own though that she was "just at the mall" with the guy.... Were all going to eat dinner together and then she'll leave once again and not return until tomorrow. As I said in my last diary entry she will be at her bf ruebens house for the night. I'm sure they'll get coffee etc in the morning too so I don't really expect terri to be around until mid to late morning at the earliest....last time she drank a ton she slept till the afternoon and had a huge hangover. Hopefully that isn't the case when she goes out later. She seems relaxed though, and asked me if I liked her outfit when she got home. She had a little skirt on and wanted to know if it was too short, lol. I'm just glad she seems ok. I'm still doing ok also for the most part. Now all I have to do is manage the rest of the day and to get the kids to bed later.
