A mom for Christmas

This is it

After driving all day I finally made it to California. I called my aunt Olivia to get her address to her house
I follow the directions from the map quest, when I told her l needed a fresh start she told me to come on down. I got everything taken care of before I left Seattle, l went to the bank
The post office to change my address
Sasha never returned my phone call which was fine. Because l brought a brand new cell phone with a different number l traded in the old one after deleting all the numbers. I added Lena's name and my sister Cassandra to my contact info, l got in touch with the issuance company regarding my condo. Luckily I had converge to cover all my belongings, their gonna send me out a check to cover all the damages. Once I get back up on my feet l'm going to pay every last dime l took from the group home, l haven't heard anything from my ex boyfriend
I take it he went back to his wife
But l'll remember the good times we shared together. Maybe some where down the road love will find me again
I pulled up to this big house, l hope l'm at the right address. This is a whole lot of land, out here in palm springs California. The weather here is gorgeous, Seattle is much to cold and rainy all the time. I know l'm doing the right thing by coming down to make a life for my self, l exit the car
And walked up the long walk way and then went up the steps and rung the door bell and waited. Till a tall pettie blonde hair woman with black glasses
On, hi can I help you she says kindly
Yes l'm looking for Olivia Casey asks
Oh you must be her niece Casey I've heard so many wonderful things about you from my wife she replied
Did you just wife l Stated. Oh she never told you that we were married
You have to forgive my manners Casey Stated, a lot of people had the same reaction l'm Alex she introduces herself. Come on in Liv's in the back giving the girls their morning bath we weren't expecting you until later on
This evening Alex said, no problem
I have been on the road since five this morning. How old is your daughter's
If you don't mind me asking Casey inquires, Ashley our oldest is seven years old and somaya is three Alex tells me. Wow you guys have your hands full Casey Stated, yes it's quite challenge but we have a nanny who comes and helps out when we're at work. Can I offer you something to eat or drink, Alex asked me. Anything you have is fine. She gets up and goes to the kitchen, l look at all the pictures scattered on the wall. Alex comes and hands me a hot cup of coffee, thanks
I didn't know if prefer cream or sugar so I put in both she explained. That's fine I spoke, so Olivia tells me you'll be staying with us for a while. I'm not she told you this or not we have a few ground rules to go over with you, Liv and I both work full time jobs. You would be working with Olivia at the bed and breakfast five days a week
We have dinner every night at 5pm Sharp. We don't allow any smoking or any legal substance in our home, you can have company but no overnight guests. We have fixed up the guest house for you, Liv and I thought you could use your own space. Alex talks to me as if l'm child or something
You don't know l'm a responsible adult who knows how to obey the rules, l said to Alex. If that's the case you wouldn't have come down here from Seattle Alex strikes back, my aunt was gracious enough to open up her house and here I am being ungrateful. I need to realize that I can't talk to people any way l choose
Look l'm sorry I disrespect you
I been through a lot and there was no reason for me to take my frustrations out on you like that, you guys have allowed to come down here and stay
Casey tries to make things right by apologizing, for offending her aunt's wife. Very well let me go tell Liv your here and I'll show you to your living quarters Alex gets up from the sofa
