Answered Prayers

 
 
Today I am thankful for answered prayers.

I am fairly certain that Isis and Osiris have answered my prayers for Steve.

I should have known by the cat that comes around the door when I do the rituals. I didn't believe it. I thought the cat just wanted the fish.

It explains everything. It explains why he left for two weeks. It explains why he isn't into me. It explains too much.

Yet, it is perfectly beautiful.

I think he and this woman are having a little tiny hiccup, so I'll pray again. I can't say how I know what I know because it crosses over the non-ya business line.

Maybe she's the one for him.

The only bizarre thing about this is the candle.

Generally speaking, when one is trying to send a love interest to the person meant for him because he claims to want a lifelong partnership, the candle wick tends to split in two while he's considering the option presented to him.

The wick will literally break and you will see two flames burning inside of the glass at the same time.

That didn't happen this time.

I only thought I saw two flames but upon closer inspection, one was the reflection of the original flame on the glass.

How do I know about the wick splitting in two?

I've done the ritual before.

I did it for Thomas right before Steve came into my life.

I don't know if it worked. Thomas would never tell me if he found another. He'd just disappear and give me and everyone else the silent treatment while he takes his new lady love into his secret lair. He disappeared, so I assume it worked. I don't know.

The weird thing is the fortune cookie that was posted onto my Facebook wall this morning.
 
Today, Siegfred, we believe God wants you to know that ...

love has already found you.


Love was found....then was lost. 

Hey, such is the stuff of life when you're trying to leave a narcissist/borderline man that won't let go.


I don't know what to think.  I do know that I'm no longer worried about breaking Steve's heart.

Life is good.....

At least the Gods love me. 

Now, I just have to pray that my feelings start falling away. 

I miss my friend. 

I want him to be happy.  If he's happy, it's all good. 

Today is going to be a crappy day. 

I can feel it. 

My ex promised the kids that he'd take them to my hometown tonight.  They are under the impression that I am going with them. 

I hate the public square where they are going to be showing a movie tonight.  This is where I'm supposed to go. 

Why do I hate that square? 

It is the place I fell in love with Thomas in 1986. 

It is the place where he always visits me when he comes to town. 

It is the place I tried to push him in a cold fountain when he...uh....was happy to see me in 2008. 

It is the place the stalker followed us from in 2011. 

It is the place I decided to let Thomas go in 1987.  He left me.  I didn't fight.  I think he expected me to fight for our relationship.  I'm not good at games.  I'm fairly straight-forward.  If you tell me you want me to go away, I will.  I did. 

I was offered a music scholarship to a college in a town eight hours away from the city.  Thomas found out and left me.  I didn't take the offer because I wanted to stay in town to be with my Grandfather who was diagnosed with cancer.  Two decades later, I would discover that Tom left me so I would go to college.  I never knew.  

That spring day in 1987, I just let him go.  Twenty-six years later, I think he's still upset about that. 

I hate that public square in my home town.  It hurts to go there.  I think my ex likes watching me cry.  He tends to smirk at me when I'm sad.

I don't want to go tonight.  The very thought of spending the evening there makes my stomach churn and the vomit rise.

I probably should stay home but I probably should go because promises to the children were made. 

Today is going to be a painful day but I know it will get better. 

One of these days I'm going to have to stop doing the things my ex tells me to do.  We're supposed to sign the divorce agreement on Tuesday (unless something crazy happens).  So, perhaps it is time to take control of what I need. 

I just want everyone to be happy, including me. 

I just want the pain to stop. 

May your love be found and never leave you.

Love ya,

S.

Edit a few hours later:  Woo Hoo!! 

My best friendship with Steve is through!!!

I'm far too dumb for him. 

My heart is dumb, too. 

Perhaps it's better not to love. 

Or maybe I could learn to hide it better. 

I couldn't stop being sick, so I ended up staying home alone.  I didn't go to my hometown to cry in the public square. 

The last thing I need right now is to deal with remnants of love gone awry.

I guess life is good. 

Things will end up the way they are meant to be. 

Cheerio! 

S.

Stalker Proxy Phone Calls

What kind of songs do narcissistic stalkers sing?  I imagine they sing songs like this.   I am grateful now that I understand why the stalker has people call  but   wish they'd listen when I ask them not to call again.  I probably should document this somewhere.  My ex was talking to an old friend of mine from high school on a daily basis.  She is his cousin.   I had to quit talking to her when she'd ask me to plan parties and then refuse to give me the guest list saying that the attendees would only be me, her, my stalker Shannon, and my NPD mother-in-law.   She wanted me to plan interventions.   This happened with a baby shower.  It also happened with a wedding.  The in-laws put together a fake wedding trying to host an intervention to shame me and my ex into doing things for them (like quit school and give them my car).   I had to cut this so-called friend off over that in 2004....

Visiting the Graveyard in my Hometown and Addressing Fears I'll Soon Join the Party

 Today I am thankful for a laugh.  It didn't start out funny.  My aunt visits once a week to use the washer and dryer.   My new dryer broke just a few days out of warranty so we dried her clothes outside. While standing outside, she took me aside an said "I don't want to alarm you, but....." then she got silent.  I pointed at the shed.  "Are you worried about all the stuff pulled out of the shed?", I asked.  "Yes.", she replied.  "That happens all the time!"   She advised me to chain the door.  I've done that.  The thief just tears the roof off.  It's easier just to keep crap in it I don't care about so the thief can rummage and take what he or she wants.  Again, I was advised to consider moving, especially after finding a full gas can in the mess.  My aunt is afraid my ex-husband is going to kill me.  I've been court-ordered to live here for another two years.  Sigh.... I'm sure a judge would allo...

Temporary Ending

Dear Readers: Over the past three weeks, I attended both a city councilperson's town hall and the mayoral town hall. Despite battling the flu, I dedicated two days to watching all available city council meetings and study sessions on YouTube in between bouts of cold chills. What I observed was a troubling pattern of disregard for honesty and disrespect towards citizens, the rule of law, and the influence of partisan politics. It has become evident that certain issues transcend the scope of a mere community art project. This realization prompted me to raise my voice, a departure from my usual composed demeanor. After discussing the situation with my family, we collectively decided to remain in Aurora. It is clear that true leadership entails making tough decisions rather than simply following personal desires. I look forward to the opportunity to address these concerns further in a different forum. Warm regards, S.  P.S. There will be a new website.
