3 THINGS FOR MONDAY!!!

Hey Karen - Yep, actually, two.  The first one, right after work, was no great shakes.  In fact, I was so NOT into it that I rescheduled my late night for this Thursday at......midnight.  LOL!! He works 3-11, so midnight is his date time!!!  Here's hoping I can stay awake!!  He's really cute, we went out back in November, but I think he'll be just another chew toy!!!!  Your turn - spill it. Tia

Absolutely dry man weekend.  The guy I went out with last Sunday never called.  So, I texted him this morning basically asking wtf and he hasn't responded.  I probably shouldn't have texted him and just chalked it up to dating practice but we got along so well. I thought I needed closure. 

Karen - WAIT............I thought you had deleted him from your cell?  Don't worry - even the strongest of women can turn into weaklings when it comes to men!!  I'm sorry he hasn't responded - maybe there's a good reason or maybe he's just a jerk.  Obviously, better that you find out now!!!   A hint?  You can achieve closure without calling or texting - simply by hitting that delete button.  Trust me, I've done some of this myself recently!!!! Hang in there! Tia

1. That today my chiropractor is having patient appreciation day. That means free adjustment and free food- well food for the kids anyway.  2. That although money is very tight these days, God has blessed us with a home that at the moment we can still aford to pay for.  3. That I have less than 30 lbs to hit my goal, and only 45 lbs to hit my Dr's goal. It seems so reachable now!

Hey Dianne - Here's to living in a still "somewhat" affordable area.  Although many people look down their noses at Essex and Middle River - our gas prices are still cheaper than most places, and it's full of good, hard-working, blue collar people.   If we can get my brother's house people ready, we're going to have an OH pool party/cookout at the end of the summer, so you can bring the girls - I'm sure Kaity will have a blast with them.  Brian still thinks girls are yucky, so.......!!  LOL!! Tia

Thanks Tia, I am looking forward to actually "meeting" some more people here.

I am here at my new job, all by myself. My boss is no where to be found, the guy who actually tells me what to do is on vacation and this other guy that is in our little office isn't here either. so here i am, all my lonesome, at work. it's boring. i'm supposed to be training myself on ProE but it ain't working. i am grateful for: 1. this week is a three day week for me. I will be going to florida wednesday night. visiting my cousin, brother, uncle and aunt. four separate locations, four days. whoooweeee. 2. that even though i can't find enough in me to care about me, other people still care and don't give up on me like i do. 3. that besides what i do to myself to make me unhappy, i have a great life. a husband who loves me, two cats and a dog who love me, parents who love me, friends, family, a cushy job and enough money to do what i want to do.

Hey Nic! So glad you joined us!!!!  Been thinking about you and wondering how you are.  Clearly, you HAVEN'T given up on yourself - or you wouldn't have taken this better job that is better for you!!!  You're NOT hopeless, you just need to crawl out from under the rock one step at a time, instead of trying to fix everything all at once.  Trust me, I've learned if you take on too much at once, you just end up wanting to crawl back!!! Wow!!!  Florida in July...................YIKES!!!!  But you need a vacay, so I hope you have a blast!!! Hang in there!!!   Hugs, Tia
