Life's Issues, Valentine's Day, A New Journal

Life's Issues:
I'm trying to understand why my cousin does the things she does. I love her to death, but her BF of 6 years has to go. She got her income tax refund and wasn't allowed to spend any of the money. She had to give him her entire check except for $20!! When she told me that, I wanted to deck his ass!! I was so mad, and I thought to myself, why would she do that?!? For one, they're not married, and for another, he does nothing to help support her or their child. In my opinion, he's a thief, a crackhead and just an asshole. She has Children Services at her house weekly to make sure that he isn't there. He has pending charges in another county for child molestation. And one day they came to her house and showed her these charges from the other county and told the CS caseworker that it wasn't him. They showed her the picture of him!! And that day he almost got busted and took out the back door. And the really fucked up part is that their daughter, she's 5, her mom took her to the doctor for a routine visit and she told the doctor that her daddy touched her down there. And they did a physical exam on her and they determined that she was touched. When I found out, I wanted to hunt the SOB down and shoot him myself! Why does she continue to let him in her house and around her daughter knowing all of this? She says that he loves her and thinks that no one else will want her besides him. How will she know if she doesn't try? I just don't get it.....

Valentine's Day:
They're calling for more snow tomorrow and for this weekend. Chris and I have plans for dinner, but he's not telling me where we're going yet. He got me this HUGE ass V Day card yesterday. It was so nice. He's getting better in the romance department, with my help of course...hehehe Men could always use a little bit of encouragement in that department I think, right? Anyways, I hope we don't get too much snow this weekend. I really enjoyed the warm weather the past couple days even though it rained most of that time. Oh well....

A New Journal:
I took a midnight trip to Wal-Mart to get a few things. I was thinking about getting a journal and I wanted to see how much they were. They had some nice ones there and I couldn't decide on which one I wanted to get. So I got this little one, it's suede. It's pretty cool. That way, if I don't blog on here one day, I can write it down in my journal so I don't forget, kwim? Well, it's 12:30 and I need to be up early again tomorrow. So until we blog again, hugs and blessed be! )0(
