I just don't get some people.

Thank God THAT traumatic conversation is over.  People are not always what they seem.  That can be good, and it can be bad.  In this case, it's really too bad.

Let's just do our best, hope for the best, and keep on trying, no matter what.

Mon mari, le beau-père

Fabrice est, malgré tout ce qu'il fait qui m'énerve, un très bon beau-père à mes enfants. Il a vraiment une merveilleuse relation avec ma fille. Ils regardent des films, font des choses ensemble, se taquinent, etc. Leur aventure prévue pour lundi (ils vont ici : http://www.nascarspeedpark.com/trackinfo_sc.aspx) est quelque-chose que moi, je détesterais faire, mais je sais qu'ils vont s'éclater comme des fous et se créer encore de merveilleux souvenirs ensemble. C'est vraiment super d'observer comment leur relation a évoluée, combien ils s'aiment et comment ils s'amusent.

C'est dommage, par contre qu'il a une si bonne relation avec MA fille quand les siennes n'en ont rien a faire de lui. Ce serait tellement mieux de faire toute ses choses en famille, avec les trois filles. Mais on ne peut pas les obliger.

Je suis quand même énormément heureuse de la relation entre Fabrice et Morgane et je plains les filles à Fabrice qui sont vraiment les perdantes dans cette histoire.

Mais leur manque de participation dans la vie de leur père est LEUR choix. Elles refusent de venir le voir. Alors tant pis pour elle. Elles ont fait leur choix et chaque choix a ses conséquences.

Can't Get it Right

By Joe Purdy

I just can't seem to get it right today.
I just can't seem to get it right today.
I just can't seem to get it right today,
I guess I'm gonna give up.
Oh, I guess I'm gonna give up.

It's nearly been a year since he's been gone,
And you still sing his goodbye songs.
Goodness knows she should move on
But she just can't let him go
No, she just can't let him go

Sorry if I made you want to cry.
Sorry if I made you want to cry.
You should know, I never meant to hide.
I just hate bringing you down.
Oh, I just hate bringing you down.

I just can't seem to get it right today.
I just can't seem to get it right today.
I just can't seem to get it right today,
I guess I'm gonna give up.
Oh, I guess I'm gonna give up.

And I dropped my paintbrush in the dirt,
Still don't know how much that hurt.
I cut my hand and wait for it to work
I just couldn't bring him back.
No, I just couldn't bring him back.

I just can't seem to get it right today.
Oh, I just can't seem to get it right today.
I just can't seem to get it right today,
I guess I'm gonna give up.
Oh, I guess I'm gonna give up.
Oh, I guess I'm gonna give up.
Oh, I guess I'm gonna give up.
Oh, I guess I'm gonna give up.
Oh, I guess I'm gonna give up, oh Lord.
I said, I guess I'm gonna give up, oh Lord.
I said, I guess I'm gonna give up.
