Dear Journal,
Yeah, I know.........it's been a while. Life has kept me busy and, on top of not feeling up to par, it has been rough. Still battling weakness and fatigue, not fun. :-(
Went to my 30th high school reunion on August 11th. Was so great to see old friends again. I danced my butt off! I love to dance. Bet you didn't know that about me! It was so much fun.
My daughter has a new boyfriend, but the problem is even though she and her previous have been broken up since April 23rd, he doesn't want to let go. He has even threatened to beat up her current boyfriend. Guess he hasn't seen him yet. ::giggle:: He is 6'3" and weighs 200 pounds at only 17. Previous weighs 187 and is 6' at 18.
I absolutely adore the new boyfriend. He treats my Carebear like she deserves to be treated. He is so attentive to every little detail. He carries her backpack for her, he opens the car door for her, he never screams at her or calls her names, and so much more, and here I thought I had married the last of the gents!~
It is very cool because they have so much in common. At the same time, after what she has been through with the previous, I am scared for her too. I don't want to see her get hurt.
The drama I was talking about in my last entry? The new boyfriend's ex and one of her friends were threatening my Carebear and my Carebear's ex threatened the new boyfriend. In one of the incidents, the police were called and a report filed against my daughter's ex. I really care about her previous BF. His is a sad story, but he is 18 now, he can rise above his past like Dave Pelzer who wrote, "A Child Called It." My cousin was raised in bad surroundings and she rose above it. I say Life is just what you make it!~
Our annual family reunion is this weekend. Hope to get pics. Gotta run. I got housework to do and must work today a little later. ::sigh:: Just wanted you to know I have not fallen off the face of the earth!~
Hugs and Kisses!~
Susan

yes we are having problems with Tracys ex. it was quiet for a while now he is back and acting wierd to everyone. I hoep your daughter and her b'f stay safe. prayers iwth you all
Glad to hear you had a wonderful 30th Hon! As for Bf's, I think in the end all we truly want is our kids to find someone who is good to them and keeps them safe. I have reservations about my daughters Bf. I do know he worships the ground she walks on and thinks the world of her, so maybe the kid has hope. (Hugs) Indigo
Family reunions! Fun stuff! At least mine was....
I still say you should move to San Antonio. There's no drama here! :-D

Hi...I'm new to your journal and enjoying it, so I thought I'd say hello. :)
Feel welcome to stop by mine if you'd like. :)
I have read a few of your entries but Im bad about not commenting but when I read this entry...which I am behind on journals since this one was wrote a while back...I was floored. What a scary world these kids live in now adays. They are so young and yet have to deal with so much. I know you have made sure your daughter is fully protected and by the pictures it looks like the new BF can handle himself with the Ex but its so sad that they have to deal with such things so young in life. I am sooo rooting for the new BF his is such a cutie. Your daughter is beautiful...no wonder she is having problems with the Ex not wanting to let her go. Hugggs, Robin
Glad things are going well with the NEW boyfriend.
