Good morning!

we have the lease in hand and it looks good to me but ident it to my lawyer to review. 

Yesterday Kay locked her keys in her car so I had to drive out to Cherryvale to rescue her. We did go out to dinner after and that was fun. 

Our alarm system for the house died and the guy is coming soon so I'd better get dressed. Have a great day!

Hello everyone

Ask and you shall receive.  I wanted something fun to do this weekend and something just fell into my lap.  My friends made plans to go to a Polynesian dinner theater awhile a back and I declined because I wanted to spend the weekend with Chris (it would have been his weekend off if he was working).  Well of course that changed.  One of the girls has to back out and offered up her ticket to anyone who wanted it....I took it!!!!  Yeah!!!!  So Saturday I won't be just sitting around all day with my thoughts...I will be out having some fun!!!! 

I am not doing anything special today.  I may drive over to JC Penney today.  I ordered something and it came in.  I also want to do groceries today.  Other than that and work....I have nothing.  What are you guys up to today???

I may take a half day tomorrow...I don't know I am being lazy.  But I won't be able to take days off as soon as this overtime starts and I feel like I need to get some time off in....before the avalanche of OT starts.

Well have a good day all....see ya later.

Hello everyone

I tell you if it isn't one thing it's another.  There was a payroll glich and we didn't get paid today.  Which isn't so bad...we will get paid tomorrow.  But what will happen is the tidal wave of calls from people calling to find out what happened.  And some people will be fine...others will be so crabby about it.  And to deal with that all day long...ugh!!!

I just want to go home and curl up in bed with some cookies and a good book. 

I don't want to deal with this right now.

I need to schedule something fun to do so I have something to look forward to.  I need to call some friends and get something together.  Hmmmm.  Anything is better than moping around the house. 

Lisa- your cruise sounds heavnly.

Well time to get back to work...see ya laters gators

Good Morning,

I am at work, it was a nice trip today. Sun is out, and not much traffic. 

I am starting to get excited for the cruise. We leave a week from Friday. Wes wills have almost a full day in P.R. I really like San Juan. It is just  American enough to feel safe, and just enough Puerto Rican ( foreign ) to know you aren't on the mainland. I don't. Mean this to sound bias, but you know you aren't at home.

crystal, I am sure you will eventually get caught up at work. And your relationship with Chris will work itsel out.

Nancy, give your babies extra love and attention. I am sure they miss their Daddy too.

Dawn, you are a strong lady. Do whatever it is you need to do to get where you want to be.

Hugs, 

LISA

Crystal, A lot of people who have medical problem, turn away from the person who loves them. This is their way of coping. You will have to decide if you can handle it, whatever you decide, we are here for you.

Dawn-

Really last Thursday was a last ditch effort....that failed miserably.  The rest of the weekend I was very unavailable to him and Sunday we didn't celebrate Easter together.  I just can't stand being around him when he's like this.  He is so distant and the closeness we once shared is gone (when he does show some love it's seems forced or fake).  He is just keeps telling me he has more imprtant things to worry about right now and he is stressed out.  We haven't seen each other since Thursday and we have text a few times over the last several days.  But I haven't heard from him since last night. 

Quite frankly I have been taking this time to slowly remove myself from the relationship.  Kind of reminding myself of all the things I want in life and what I want in a re;ationship....and how Chris just seem to want or can't deliver.  Any time I think of a good memory of us...I tell myself...that's just not reality anymore!!!  What is reality...me sitting at home by myself...lonely.  Ignored calls and texts...broken promises...this is my new reality.  I have to stop living in the past and face the truth.  I don't know maybe he will get past this... when he feels better. 

Funny how I thought I found this great guy that would treat right.  And in the end he is treating exactly like my EX!!!!  I thought I was so smart this time.

Good evening Crystal and the rest of Illinois!

I am home after a therapist appointment.  WOW!  She says she has a lot of respect for me for returning to therapy after the last appointment.  LOL!  We barely scratched the surface last time!  We are making progress on my history, then will start "trauma therapy".  I kind of feel stupid going through this, but I am going to trust all that say it is necessary to get the trauma put in it's proper place, once and for all.  Up until this point, I have been stuffing the feelings and trying to ignore them.  That all seems fine and dandy, but sometimes, they poke out....leaving me having tough feelings.  I can no longer eat them away or drink them away....so I guess it is time to put them away properly.

Besides that, things are progressing nicely in my life.  I have even put my toes in the water regarding gainful employment.  It would be nice if I did not need to work, but alas, I do.

Crystal......sorry to hear about Chris.  As I am trying to learn, we can only control ourselves and no one else.  Nothing you can do will change how Chris behaves.  It is how you react to his behavior that you CAN control.  It is up to you how far you want it to go.   Maybe send him encouraging messages to let him know you care about him and are willing to help.  If he shuts you out, you will know that you did all you could.

Nancy---give Rick my regards and I hope he is better soon and home with you and the kitties.

I hope you all are doing well and enjoying the nice weather that we waited for so (im)patiently.

 

Tell someone that you love them!

Lisa-  Chris is not doing to well these days....physically or mentally.  He can't work and he can't do much of anything with out extreme fatigue.  This is wearing on him and I believe he is getting depressed.  Unfortunately, he is pushing me away.  I think a lot of people do this to their loved ones.  I just don't know how much more I am supposed to take before I should walk away.  How much is too much...you know.  We don't see much of each other anymore and as of lately....well we are barely talking.

Hi,Another long day at work. But on the bright side, tomorrow is my Friday. 

We are doing a fast trip to St. Louis on Thursday. We will be back on Friday evening. Just need to take care of some business.

Nancy, I feel so bad that Rick isn't doing good. I hope he recovers and gets home shortly.

Crystal, you juyst do the best you can. And remember, you were looking for a job when you found that one.

BTW, how is Chris feeling?

I just got my great neice's blaket and outfit ready to mail to her. I know I won't be able to see her anytime soon.

Have a great evening,

Hugs,

 

 

Lisa
