Bloom

Another weekend come and gone. It was actually nice for once and I got some flowers planted, which was one thing that I for sure wanted to get done. I felt a little behind for not doing it yet, but our weather has just been so up and down that it was almost better to wait. I also got some done at the BF's place. I had some seeds growing in a couple pots over there, but a massive severe storm we got sent them flying off to the Land of Oz. R.I.P seeds and pots!

Like any flowers growing some seedlings... it takes some time to grow (besides good soil, water and sun). Over this weekend I can say that I have definitely grown and have left a lot of some issues I have in life behind me. Have you ever had that one person mean everything to you in life and then one day it's just gone, leaving you empty and lost? Well, that person happens to be friends with my BF. I knew this going into the relationship, but I decided that I couldn't live in the past. And heck, he met someone else when we were together and decided to pick her over me anyway... so why shouldn't I finally be happy? And happy *finally* came.

This past weekend was the first since the news came out about my BF and myself to him - as a heads up. And he can deny it for as much as he wants, but we think he was bothered by it. Kind of funny. But anyway, him and his wife (the girl he picked) had been invited to other events, but either had something else going on or just declined. This time, it was a yes... and actually was unintentional of hanging out - but it worked. And although it was a group of people, it finally cleared some air that things didn't have to be weird. Him and I didn't really talk directly to one another but I wasn't NOT going to be myself. And according to the dear BF, she was her normal self as well... even conversing with me like it was no  big deal. I will admit that deep down I will probably always want to punch her (and him) in the face for what emotions rolled out of me during that time in my life... but in the end, everything happens for a reason. As I've said before, I wouldn't know half of he people I do now and I love everyone I know. Yes, my like would be going in a different direction but that's OK. So the ice breaker finally came and went, and I would more than OK hanging out with them again. Plus, I am still the cooler, more fun girl though. As I have been told, but maybe that's just cos the BF is a little biased. :)

Growing is fun. In life and in terms of pretty things.
