I'm a Recovering Dumpee

I haven't blogged - or read any of my usual blogs for several weeks because I was actually bullied and dumped by a mommy friend - who I had been friends with for 4 years. This took me completely by surprise and was devastating so I haven't been online, or doing any of the things I would normally do. I will blog about it in bits and pieces over time, but one thing that really stands out in my mind is that it was totally junior high all over again. And it really sucked.

The boys are doing well. Ricky started playing t-ball every Saturday morning and his team consists of the boys from his preschool class. It's really nice - and even nicer that the mommy friend who dumped me has a daughter and they do T-ball at a different park, in a different suburb, a few miles away.

Teddy is 15 months old now and is fully walking and kind of running. He started walking at 12 months. He is fond of climbing onto dressers, and any kind of furniture and leaping off with such joy. We just gave him his second haircut (which he hates) and Mark had to put him in a headlock in order to finish the job. We put it off so long because Teddy hates it so much - but we were forced once he started resembling Nicholas from Eight is Enough (for those who are old enough to know what show that was) with the meatball haircut.

We are starting to organize the renovation of the bathroom in the other house and hoping to put our house up for sale in the next month. It's kind of exciting. If we can sell our house we will start the plans on extending the other house (both floors). Anyway, I just thought of blogging today and trying to get back into my "normal" usual self stuff.
