Wouldn’t it be nice if you could only say good things?  I still – occasionally – have an angry mouth.

November is THE most painful month for me.  It’s always full of loss, endings and chaos.

I will miss your awesome coffee, especially at 3am.  I wrapped both hands around each mug in gratitude.

And your breakfasts.  Best eggs ever.  You taught me to slow down and lower the heat.  Can I have the pancake recipe?

I truly hope you smile and think of me every time you make your favourite potato salad with dill.

Thank you for introducing me to cycling.  I am looking forward to bringing her home in December.

I hope you find someone who loves her, mothers her and makes as huge an effort to understand her as much as I did.  Keep up the ABC.

You are an amazing father. Most of the time.

Just not quite right for me.

I did say “MUST LOVE DOGS!”

Thank you for sharing a Pinterest board with me and all the other ladies out there…

But I never really let you in.  I’m sorry.

You helped me in more ways than you will ever know.  Thank you for being there for me.

I am not really that fond of purple.

You want someone you can take care of and I have a fear of being taken care of.  Especially when I do a much better job.

I need to focus me and mine.

Cognitive dissonance occurs when the actions and energy around the words aren’t in congruence.  I felt the ripples and heard the lies.

I just wanted to see how far you’d go.

I sawthe real you at the party I worked days to help you create for your daughter.  I didn’t like what I saw so I left, just like I said I would.  There was no looking back.

Could you look me in the eye and tell me where you really were while I played Mom?  I doubt it, because you are a weak coward who takes advantage of others.

Bit of advice … if you are going to pull those stunts, stick with the waitresses and volunteer ladies who won’t figure it out. Or, better yet, do the hard work it takes to love yourself.

I wish you health, happiness, prosperity and love.

And to choke on those popsicles… karma will ensure that, you know.  Think of that every time you get your little thrill from your trophies.

You will ruin her.

Goodbye.
