I never expected much out of life other than the basics. This notion applies to people too. So imagine my distress yesterday when noticing the disrepair of my daughters clothing. Not that I should complain I guess, but why would someone let their little girl go to school with several holes in their pants? Granted, it was just the knee, but still. Our child is not some lowly waif or abandoned orphan. She has two parents that take care of her. I assumed that my ex would be able to keep her in decent clothes, but really, is that too much? So today, I decided to rectify some of this situation and took my girl shopping. That was a fun experience in which I learned something I didn't know either, she owned no pairs of jeans. Well, four pairs later and several tops and other items, I do believe she is good to go for a while. I just am not looking forward to tomorrow night when I drop her off and the impending questioning begins.
Things like that just give me a big case of the grrrrrrrs!

Trying to figure things out
I will be the first to admit, I don't like the dating scene. The entire being single and figuring out if someone likes you or if you like them. Its so complicated. Why can't it be simple?
Take the fact that there is a woman that I like, and she likes me the same way. Problem is, she is already seeing someone. How did I even get into that situation? Why did she never tell me before that she was seeing someone? And the feelings keep getting deeper and more complex. Do I walk away? Do I keep seeing other people to as potential for more than friends?
Well the answer to that is yes I do try and date and see how things are with other women too. Am I hung up on one? No. I worry a little that I will move on and she may try and lay claim, but by then it is too late. If things were simply she would give me more than the passing glance and a little thought. And maybe there in lies the truth. That I do worry and that holds me back.
How can one move forward when one is so sidetracked?
