Goodmorning World!15:23 Oct 26 2017

I'll start off by saying, this is not me. I don't do the whole Dear Diary thing..so please bare with me as i write my first entry in all my 29 years (& yes im 29. I cant seem to get my profile to 88 in stead of 89 but age is irrelevant).
I must admit I use to write alot of poetry in my younger days, but had to give it all up on my 18th birthday... Its sad really.. (I will not dive into my history online but share a few memories). The day Inturned 18, my mom made me throw away my collection of over 700+ poems I wrote when she found whre I had stashed them.. Its water under the bridge, but I must admit something in me broke that day and I never really wrote poetry again. Though Ive been starting back lately. Growing up in a sheltered, strict home, i never did what others my age did, like drink and party, or let alone go out without x amount of chaperones.. must admit, i never even snuck out or dated.. yeah, it was crazy...
But back to my day...
So i know i said i would probably be off line for a few days with company coming in, but they changed thier plans at the last minute. Something you should know, i dont usually curse/swear, or say bad things about people. So if i do go on a tangent, I usually improvise with the word "silly" instead of what i should probably be saying, lol.
So, my "silly" little cousin did something extremely "silly" this week and my aunt and i have been cleaning up his mess. Hes 22, and just came out of the closet. He lives over seas. So, my "silly" cousin, meets this guy online, hadnt known him a wk, gets on a bus from his country, drives to Mexico, (Cancun) and loses all his stuff on the way like phone and laptop, etc. gets a ticket there to Minniapolis, and then the guy kicks him out 2 days later. He cant call anyone for help. Doesnt have money, and that puts me in the middle. My aunt was ready to fly him back immediately, but finally conceded to him coming here. "Here" meaning with me because shes too busy. So I was the go between the last few days, because messages were replayed through his borrowed laptop on instagram, which i then had to copy and paste and text my aunt... copy hers and paste to him... etc..
Omg, long story short. They finally got it worked put and im doing my happy dance today, because now i can relax. Hes going to her house and they can work it out. He cant drive here, cant work, and I would have been babysitting. Not that i should complain, as he is my family, (im not complaining, lol, just expressing) though a heads up notice would have been great to clear my schedules and prep a place for him to crash.
So today, im having a glass of wine for breakfast (yep you read that right) lol and writing once again in my new book coming out soon. Though, it made my release date set back a few weeks, im still happy. :)
I wanted to share a poem I wrote back when I was 13..
Dreaming of a mother...
The dream that I wish
That might soon come to be
Is to have a mother
To care about me
I want her to love me
And also to care
I want us to be
A real happy pair
She might want to share
Stories of her past
Those i will cherish
And forever, they'll last
When i get scared
Or feel like a wreck
I want her to be there
To help and protect...
By the way, my mom hated this poem the most, especially when I won poetry awards for it :(
So, how did i do on my first journal entry? Im so not good about talking about myself online but i feel i needed to get my day off my chest. I used to share my week, and vise versa with my grandfather.. until 3 Christmas's ago when he passed from cancer. I miss him daily and i know he would have wanted me to write and keep moving forward...
Have a great morning, and thanks for listening!
