Busy Day Today

So today will be one of those "rip your hair out" days. I have to go to work , of course. Try to get as much done there before 1:45. From there I have to bring "Z" to the doctor and he needs to be there for 2:30. After that I have to pick my niece up and take her and "Z" to meet my parents 2 hours away from here. The will be spending the rest of the week with my parent. Ahhhh, a long over do break for me!!

So, I am really excited about seeing my niece. I have never talked about her due to the fact that I have not seen her in about nine years. My brother and I don't exactly get along and they moved to New York so that kinda put a wedge there as well. Now my niece lives in Connecticut with a family friend so I am hoping to be able to see more of her. She has been living with this lady for sometime and I just never pushed the issue to see to hard. Mentioned it a couple of times to my Mom but nothing really came out of it. It is kinda hard to walk into someones life, especially a child and expect things to go as if nothing ever happened. I think a nice relationship will blossom though. When I spoke to her last night, she told me that she loved me. It shocked me, mostly because I wasn't expecting it, but I sure do love her and have missed her alot.

"Z" is excited as well, this seems to be a great summer for him. He has reconnected with his 1/2 sister, which I think he really needed and now his cousin. He will also get to meet two of his other cousin's at a family get together this weekend. They are my niece's brother's and are much younger and a little off the wall from what I am told. I have never met them either, only seen pictures of them.

With all that said, let the rat race begin!
