do you remember when i posted my family countdown
back in july?.
well, today the countdown reads 100 days less than the day i posted it, even though it seems like i posted it seven minutes ago.
25 more stretches like that--from when i posted it in july until this moment in early october--and my daughter no longer lives in my home.
twenty five.
that's it.
twenty five more blocks of time like this recent block and she's gone.
100 days from now it will be twenty four.
i want to say a string of really bad words.
but, instead i'm going to go read shel silverstien with my six year old ...
then play monopoly with my nine year old ...
and then watch some music videos with my eleven year old.
25!
shit.
