Bit by bit

Ok, it is divorce story time.
You lose a lot in a divorce.
That is just plain obvious.
There are the promises she broke.
There is the life totally altered.
And there are the things.
Really you carve apart everything.
It all gets discussed and decided.
Every posession is on the table.
Who wants what, and the more
important Who gets what are there.
Sure, there are the quick replacements.
I can see some of them as I type this.
My toaster is one of those.
I still laugh at that one.
Who packs a toaster 3 weeks before they move out?
Man, I will just NEVER understand that one.
There is also the new stuff that is not replacing.
The LCD and the Xbox fall into that catagory.
And then there is the other stuff.
The things that can complete a home.
Well, this picture has one of those.
The new kitchen chairs I ordered arrived today.
I picked them up and unpacked them.
My dining room is now a dining room,
and my kitchen is now a kitchen.
I have made a lot of changes here.
In the past year I have put my home together.
Sure, it is still the exact same walls here.
But the heart of the house is not the same.
So I guess this is not a divorce story after all.
I guess this is a Dave story of rebirth.
I am sure going to enjoy my oatmeal in the morning.
Have a great day.
