The Camera Man

Every once in awhile, things come up about the divorce that upset me all over again. I read someone's wish for a video camera and it got me thinking of how my parents bought us a video camera for my anniversary. Well that camera was used up until the divorce, because my Dad offered up to take control of it at all the big events where the camera was on. He stood in the background taping us all enjoying our festivities. And now he's not there. Damnit. He doesn't come to the family functions any more and all those years of my kids being little are not on video tape to enjoy many years down the road. Damnit all.

Enough is Enough

Since I seem to have a thing for lists, here is a list that will be finished at the end of my post. It needs no crossing off. I don't need to change its order. Contentedness.

I am good enough at soccer.
I've had enough schooling.
I laugh enough.
I know how to save enough money at the grocery store.
I am a good enough cook.
I do unto others enough.
I am patient enough.
I get enough loving.

The more I type the word enough, the funnier it looks.
