I was looking through some papers today and found a payment for something I ordered over a month ago. I had asked my ex to mail it back at the end of February. He hid it. He took the stamp off of it and hid it. He didn't take the money...just the stamp. He didn't tell me he needed a stamp. I always have lots of stamps. Now, I have to call and explain why my payment is late and I was just about to call and complain as to why I hadn't received my order. I was being patient since the order was coming from Canada. The thing is, why would he take the stamp and hide it? If he'd stolen the money order, I'd have been ticked but it would have made sense. But, he just took the stamp. It's not a huge deal, it was just a silly thing I wanted and I'm sure I can explain what happened, but why would he do that? I put one of my many stamps on it and mailed it today. If it had been mixed with other papers maybe I could make the excuse that he was just straightening up, but it was by itself in my coupon folder. I really just don't get it...

BTW I called the police. They suggested I change my number. I don't know where Sean is, but I gave them the phone number I had. It's going to be hard to change the number since it is in Sean's name. I don't really want a new account right now since I'll be moving in about 2 months, but I'll call and see what they can do. I really just want to put this behind me. I can't wait until moving day. I wish that I didn't have a contract with my job. I love teaching, but the place I'm working contributes as much abuse to my life as Sean did. I've had children punch, push and slap me and the administration does nothing. They actually blame me for my poor management. My class is better managed than most of the other classes. And they are second graders. Just 2 1/2 more months.

I really just had to vent. I guess I'll never really know the why's. Maybe there is no reason.

A friend of mine told me, and I do believe this to some extent, that there are just some things in life that you can't explain.
