Ugh, keeping this small, just because I've not posted anything in a while, but I need to let this out before I pop I think.
Things don't feel like they're doing great just now.
It's nothing end of the world, Tragic accident, etc, etc, but just, lately things seem to be weighing a little heavy.
Our social worker we've been appointed this far has all but accused us of looking to brainwash any potential kid with the 'gay agenda', inferred my inability to take care of myself let alone a kid, harboring dangerous animals, and now has begun interviewing our friends and family behind our back to do background checks
It's certainly demoralising, and I can see the stress it's having on Jeri, let alone myself
We've tried to do all sorts of different things, movies, a project of giving our bedroom a makeover, sort of more feng shui, and even my normal Magic events and Jeri's art events
But I still can't get rid of this feeling of being utterly drained and out of energy, it's becoming stupid how often Jeri finds me slumped asleep in front of the laptop when she comes home and in some particularly embarrassing moments to boot
Let alone my lack of time or energy to art, it's gotten so bad I can't get these images done, when we've struggled for money, I did the unthinkable and finally sold like a half dozen of my transformer shelf to make up 300 dollars, figures I liked as well
I'd open up a DfD, but it's not as if it's any one thing in particular, it's lots if small, biting things that are creeping up on us and we're still trudging water here
That and I had to have my arm reset by the way, joy of joys, but that's just background noise right now, I'm feeling just plain lost and just clinging on with me and Jeri
Guess we just have to weather the storm and keep at it
Here's to keeping heads above water~

Just wish I could do more for Jeri to try and get through this, it was me who really wanted kids and she agreed, she's the one being hauled along for this ride
But that being said, you don't deserve it. Not by a long shot. And it's infuriating to even hear about it. Especially the 'gay agenda' crap. And what kind of 'dangerous animal' do they mean, a large-sized dog? Something less inclined to bite than a friggin' pomeranian?
But yeah, like I said, 'all but' said it, think I spoke to you on this one, he asked a ton of questions about Jeri's activist work and how we'd raise a kid regarding questions on sexual health and such x_X Asking us pretty much if we were gonna try and force the kid that there's no heteronormative or anything
And yeah, Rascal, our malamute, she's a friendly huskie, and like double digit age now, so, she's pretty mellow, but pretty massive, so I can see folks who don't like dogs being hesitant, just, we ended up having to dig out her papers from like a decade ago and everything @_@
Thanks for the best wishes, really hoping we can find a breather soon
Hey you bet tho Jazz, just keep that chin up :D
Thanks for the luck, we'll need it I think!
I'll make them a plaque and hope that James Roberts doesn't make me wistful about them all over again XD
Mmm, money.
slightly more real talk: Isn't the gay agenda to get laid and find love? How's that different from the straight agenda? How about who fucking cares about what happens in the bedroom? Let's do a judge of character!
I hope it all works out hun. And more importantly, I hope you can get your transformers back.
Iunno, we'll see how that plays out, but I'm not sure about how well my character has stood up so far, wish I was a little more confident for this sorta thing
As for the transformers, I KNOW where they are, lol, but, I'm not likely going to have money to rebuy 300 dollars of plastic crack anytime soon, so, we'll see I guess, but this is for a good cause overall
Also FUUUUUUUUUUUU you sold treasure! Sonufawhore that sucks. I have trouble parting with weapons in New Vegas for caps, so image what I'm like in reality about that. But money is important. Here's to hoping your monetary situation improves because I think that's literally the only thing holding you two back. You're both very loving, and you seem to have a lot of family support which is a big plus. Your willing to sacrifice for a child will also help you; definitely more mature than I'll ever be.
