Snip, Snip, Snip

I really think there are few things more satisfying than quickly mincing garlic or dicing tomatoes with a perfectly sharpened chef's knife that is just the right weight...but cutting people out of your life is one of those things...once you get past the anger at yourself for letting them (back) in (again) despite feeling like you should have known better from the beginning. But regardless of the number of times I made the mistake before...I won't again. And even though making that cut was hard, painful and at times really kind of sucks...the rest of the time, I honestly feel better..gone from cell phone, g-chat, and my life all together is the constant wondering if things are going to fall through, what the next fight will be, why I'm always at fault, why I'm supposed to put up with everything, yet never get any slack myself...gone, gone, gone, bye, bye, bye. 

I even once made cookies with nuts in them for this guy...what the hell was I thinking!  The first sign I was in a toxic non-relationship was when well, I let the toxins in. Classy move, classy move. Oh well, the past the past..again...but this time, it will stay that way!
