I am alone in my hotel room. Chat room just emptied out and I am all alone. I am fighting it very much. It is soooo difficult.
My folks came up this week and spent the entire week with me. I am so blessed. They are both 83 years old and there are CASINOS in St Lous. OMG!! So, I was trying to work and meet these guys there. These 83 year olds beat me into the ground!! I could not keep up with them. :H
Thank the Good Lord in Heaven!!
My Mom kept "limping" around with her cane and my "blind" dad kept playing blackjack with me (can you even begin to imagine playing blackjack blind much less at 83 years old??) and he came out ahead!!! How cool is that!! And then last night he said, okay, Cindi, let's do the "high limit" stuff and we went and played a high limit slot. On the 5th pull (100 dollars in) he hit $1000.00!!! How much fun is that!!
So my week was GRAND!! Not only did I stay busy at work, I stayed busy at night making sure I was not drunk because I had to take care of my folks and I got to play blackjack with my VERY BRIGHT 83 year old daddy. (I am a daddy and mommy's girl)
Tonight is a different story. I am alone, they are gone. I am working through the weekend. I am in the hotel alone, yet once again, as usual (10 years of this crap) and totally tired of it. My "gig" is not going well and I have "issues" to deal with. I would dearly love some company and some friendship but I sit here by myself. It sux.
Oh well. Just wanted to vent. I had a wonderful week and shouldn't complain. Like all goodness in life, it makes the tough times seem worse. I am okay and will get through tihs just fine.
Just think. I have two great parents, both in their 80s, who could come up and spend a week with me and have fun and play. I am truly blessed and should never forget that!!
Love and good night to all!!
Cindi
