We Can Do Hard Things

Good morning, all! Not real sure why I got up at 03:20, but am thinking it MAY have something to do with crashing out before 8pm, last night..I didn't even get to watch Dog...I think HE watched ME, from the TV, but I slept thru it all..crap..

Today's agenda includes the usual traffic wars, work, trying to find a little time to make a trip to the new job, to pick up paperwork, etc, and the more work, more traffic wars..rinse and repeat..lol..Tonight Chris's ex-girlfriend is coming over for some "girl time and counseling", per her request. They broke up about a week ago, after being together over a year (they are 19 and 20). They both both think the OTHER broke up, and they've both cried all week, so maybe they need an objective 3rd party. I actually like Stacey MORE than I like Chris (yea, bad mama), but I will TRY to be objective)...WHY she wants "love advice" from someone who has been divorced X 3 is beyond me, but she asked, so I'll do it (even though I don't think he's good enough for her!)...

So...what's up with YOU today????

Good morning. I tried to type earlier but the website was being a butt. lol. Yesterday was WF and back and today is Granbury and back. Much closer but still a drive. I was so tired though from the drive that I dozed off from 4-6pm when I got home! I still fell asleep around 9 but I was awake at 2am. lol. Its okay because I dozed. And today I'm at least driving with someone in the car. Headed to a medical facility because a woman that works there is losing her vision and is in danger of losing her job. She's not a nurse thankfully. Those are toughies. Then, this afternoon we start planning for another week-long training for consumers where they stay in a hotel and spend all day under blindfold while doing a host of things- mobility/cane travel, cooking, Braille, and even using power tools like a drill press and saw to make stuff. Its ALOT of planning-details details details. I'm co-chairing it with a newer counselor.

Well better get moving. Take care everyone!!!

WHY she wants "love advice" from someone who has been divorced X 3 is beyond me, but she asked, so I'll do it (even though I don't think he's good enough for her!)...

Because we as women want another "mom's" objective on things.  When I knew that my -ex  and I weren't gonna make it - the day that I lost it -  I ran and called his mom. We talked for 2 hours on the phone.   She was in MO and I was in OK at the time.    You know your son better than her - I wanted some answers in my case to try and understand what was going through her son's head......well - she didn't know anymore than me - but I knew that she and I had alot in common and she soooooo understood me -  he didn't !!  lol     So in another words - the mom-in-law (in your case - mom-in-law to be)  was the first person I ran too for comfort !!   Go figure..

I may be getting a new car this weekend.   The work that I need to get done on my current car just out-weighs - easier to get another car.......:)   Can't wait -  I'll know more on Sat when I get it.....
then I won't feel out of my safety comfort zone to travel across the state and go and get out of Dallas for the weekends to come.......WATCH OUT -  HERE I COME
1)  Trip to OKC much needed and been wayyyyyyyyy too long
2)  Trip to Tulsa to see and visit Sister - wayyyyyyy  to long since I"ve been there
3)  Trip to South Texas - Llano everyone.....way long overdue too..........need my hugs....

Gina - my ex and my mother are still best buds.  Go figure.  Some days I think they're conspiring together.

Short night from the time I got off work till the flooring folks got here this morning.  Feel the need for a nap before I go back this afternoon.  Going to try and catch a walk today if I can.

Never, and I mean NEVER, trust a fart!!

G'Morning TMB,

Glad to see everyone on OH this morning.  (Helps me more than you guys know.)

I agree..the week is flying by too fast, even for me.  -- I've been swamped at work and had 2 nights of stress eating because of it, I think.  You know me, I'm a true food addict.  I'll use any excuse, I guess.

Today I'm sticking to my meal plan, drinking all my water, exercising and taking all my vitamins.  -- Just gonna do the next right thing even if I don't feel like it.

Thanks for letting me vent...

Big Hug :)
