It’s been a while since I’ve blogged, to be honest it’s been hella busy and stressful with everything that’s going on.
Went to Greece and had a great time but Kellie and I fought a lot about stupid stuff. One day Kellie was sitting next to me and Charles was texting about Astra. Kellie saw and got up and walked away and went and sat on the other side of the boat. Clearly he was annoyed. He sat there and kinda pouted for hours. Finally we all went to bed and he just sat up there. We started texting and it was pretty nasty. I was hella annoyed that he acted kinda like a child in that situation. There were a few other times too where he was just being overly childish about things.
The trip overall was fun. But just the amount of arguing on the trip really pissed me off. We didn’t have sex once (we did however have a threesome, with some Mexican in Paris!).
Once we got back, it was just a whirlwind of packing and moving. We still didn’t have sex before I left. I was just too annoyed with him overall to want to have sex. Since I left, we haven’t fought but I have been just slightly annoyed with him. We’re going to see each other this weekend so let’s see how it goes.
Drove to Iowa, spent some time there. Things were fine. I was a bit annoyed with Randy and Zach, I texted them and asked if they were free one weekend. They replied that they were busy but never offered another day or followed up with a day that would work for them to meet up. So that was a bit of a let down. I just feel like when people do that, it means they aren’t really that into hanging out with you. I didn’t bother following up with them and neither of them have reached out since.
From there, drove to South Carolina with Dad…. We got HELLA lucky. We left the day before hurricane hit and got stuck on the freeway for about 6 hours just outside of Asheville. Thank GOD it was ONLY 6 hours. The whole time I was sitting there, I was so frustrated and pissed off that we were stuck, but TBH we got really lucky and I’m grateful that it was ONLY 6 hours in hindsight. I also feel like we got lucky that we stopped because after we drove through the areas that were closed, there were trees down everywhere, cars blown off the road, etc. Part of the interstate we had passed by got completely washed out.
Dad was here in SC with me for a week. I’m very grateful for his help but it’s a bit embarrassing sometimes the way he interacts with people. IE we went to a restaurant and this young girl was the host… She told us it was a 90 minute wait and my dad said something (I forget) and then put his hand on her shoulder. and I just wanted to be like “Dad, you cannot TOUCH people like that”.. Another night we went to this gas station to get ice cream. There was a young girl working the register by herself and dad said to her “here by yourself tonight”. And again, I just wanted to yell. “DAD, You cannot say stuff like that”. He just says very inappropriate stuff, but I know he thinks he’s just being friendly/joking/etc and he doesn’t see the harm in it.
Anyway, while he was here we did a lot of projects on the boat. The biggest one was installing the water maker. I had got a quote for installing it for $5,000. I was like, no way am I gonna spend that much. But TBH, I sort of wished we had spent that money now. LOL. It was frustrating AF. We spent probably 3 days JUST trying to decide where to put it… We made 2-3 trips to various stores every day to buy parts/etc for it. There were probably two times I wanted to just throw the fucking thing in the water and say FUCK IT. But now it’s installed, I’m mostly happy with it. So that’s good. This boat life though is costing me a LOT more then I expected, mostly cause I’m just trying to outfit the boat, buying lots of random stuff, paddle boards, scooters, etc. Hopefully once I get off the dock it’ll be much cheaper.
Speaking of getting off the dock. Basically leave in less than a month. And I have NO CLUE where I am going. Some people say go to the north of the Bahamas to start, other people say go to the south to start. I just don’t know what to do! There’s too many options, too much information. People say “don’t have a plan” but I at least have to have a general idea of where to go. I dunno. I’m just getting a bit nervous about it all and going alone, etc.
