Does one blissful day account for my father's actions?

Halloween was alright. My dad sprung a 11 hour trip on me to go get meat from his father's farm bacause i'm the logical choice to go with him. My sister had begged me to go to her friend's party cause they'd invited my bf and I, my bf was planning on hanging with me, and K was expecting me to be at her Haunted House. We barely got back in time for any of that. I threw together a costume for my bf and i, then we headed off to meet my sister at her friend's place. After chaperoning those little 11-year-old munchkins, my bf and i took off with our bag of candy (we shared, taking turns going up to the door) to K's place. When we got there, our other friend let us into the house and we hung for a while before going through the Haunted House they'd built in the garage. When we returned, K invited us to help out to my bf and i hurried in and took our positions. It was awesome! I totally want to help out next year! Lolz.

After that, my bf and i headed back to my place (40 min early ^_^ ) and sorted the candy. We sat around for a while, just chilling with my mom, then headed to his place to light our pumpkin up (i'll see about posting pics). We said good bye and i headed back home, avoiding my fuming father at all costs.

For some reason, the past week, after having officially quit swimming, my father has become a walking nightmare. I guess it's ok, since i hardly see him, but when i walk into a room, he always finds something to verbally attack me with. "stupid", "wrong choice", "screwing up your life", "you don't listen to me", "close-minded", "what is this *%&$#?", "i'm done with you", "i've had it up to here with you"...... etc........ I wish he'd just leave me alone. He's not encouraging in any way. All he ever does is bring me down. I hate him. I know that's a strong word, but i really do hate him. He yells at everyone, manipulates my mom, hates me, so on and so forth. He needs help, but he's too stubborn to chill and get it.

My bf is always there for me. He texts me with encouragement and love and gives me advice on how to avoid issues with my father. Somehow, he always knows the right words to get me through and cheer me up. He often sends little sweet messages and cute pics throughout the day while we're in school. Last night, he dropped by before work like he often does and I guess i was being so sweet, he brought me 4 caramel apples after work. He set them at the door, rang the bell, and was off like a light. The note told me that he'd brought them because he was "returning the favor" of being sweet. How awesome is that?!? And caramel apples are my favorites!! I shared one with my mom, cause there was one with nuts and i don't particularly like the nuts, but she does. I so adore him!!

November 17 will be 6 months with him and he told me he's planning something special for us that weekend. <3<3 I love him...

Anyway, you can see how roller-coaster-y my life is, between the hate and discouragement of my father and the love and encouragement of my bf.

Signing off, carefree and in love,
