I picked Emily up from school at 2:00 with Tom so that we could go and see Shrek together before the crowds hit. I'd slapped on some make up and bought ring pops for the 3 of us to munch on. Tom's got me addicted to the cotton candy ones. I'm sure my dentist will slap me when I go for my check up next week.
Emily was disappointed about the lack of effort made today, she was also sad that she wasn't included in the award ceremony. I never told her that I was so furious and frustrated that I had to take a serious amount of antacid to stop my stomach acid from dissolving my entire esophagus, can't push my thoughts onto her like that so I try to be really careful. By the time I picked her up I'd dried my eyes and carefully applied just the right amount of make up as to not make her suspicious. We touched on the subject just briefly, I told her I was sorry, reminded her that the only person we are truly in control of is ourselves then moved on. She was so happy to see her friends again and to be back in her old world so I put the focus on that rather than on this stupidity. Things don't always go the way you hope so the only thing you can do is take a breath and move on.
