I'm sorry to hear that, dreamcrisp1. I hope you feel better soon (I'm not judging whether the decision was right or wrong or anything, just being sympathetic).
It has been a busy weekend and I have a busy day ahead. I have errands to run, a class later in the day, and a snowstorm to prep for later. I've also been asked to help someone locally with political canvassing. This is kind of the calm before the storm of activity today. Fun times!

I'm still in bed, but I should probably get up soon. I think I'm going to get some Starbucks. I need to write out some things about what I'm going to say to my manager tomorrow when we discuss my new role.

I'm still in bed. I need to get up and clean before I go into work but I'm feeling very lazy.
I'm pissed at my weekend job manager. I've told her 100x I don't want to work both Sat and Sun- I know those are the only days I'm available, but I work up to 50 hours a week at my real job and sometimes I just want a freaking day off! When I went in yesterday I discovered she had scheduled me for Sat/Sun for the next 3 weeks >.<
Today I want to do nothing...a whole lot of nothing. I need to give myself a manicure so I think I'll do that now which mean I can do any manual labor for a while. Brilliant plan!
Later today I'll deal with the work week prep routine: plan meals, prep breakfasts, and organize clothes so I don't have to think when I wake up. Too much fun here for words...lol.

I'm still in the boyfriend's bed but I'm about to head home to sand and paint and work on various projects. I'm redoing my bedroom and it is looking adorable!
I broke up with my boyfriend last night. It was really stupid and I was slightly drunk. But he really hurt my feelings. I don't want to deal with that again and I promised myself I would never put up with that again.
I'm sorry to hear :-( but good for you for putting yourself first.

I just ordered myself a Roomba and it'll be here Tuesday, woot! I secretly hope one or both of our cats like it so much they want to ride on it
I told FF I want to have the tile in our dining room professionally cleaned for my Mother's Day present. That's appropriate right?! I've tried everything known to man to get that tile and grout clean and it's NOT WORKING. That was the only room that we didn't re-do the flooring in when we renovated, so it took the brunt of the construction dirt, even though we covered it with paper. It's not cheap to have tile & grout cleaned, so I hope it works!

I'm in bed. This afternoon I'm headed to my b and sil's house to hang out and play games and snuggle my niece. I love her so much you guys. As a non-kid person I finally kind of get why people want children so badly. She's just the best and I miss her when I haven't seen her in a few weeks. And she changes sooo much in those few weeks! She's saying mama now and can almost stand on her own.

I'm sorry, but it's good you did stuck up for yourself.
I should not right lyrics while drinking. If I can't do it well sober, then it probably doesn't work so well drunk either.
I've had a really busy last few days. Why do all my plans always seem to happen at once? I wish everyone's availability was spaced out better.
I just took a giant bag of too small kid clothes out to the car. Trip #2 to goodwill today.
Yep. :-) we talked politics and current events for a bit last night and it is so refreshing to see someone who enjoys that kind of dialogue- we varied slightly in some of our viewpoints and it didn't matter, which is also nice. He lent me his copy of America from the daily show to read ;-)
He also made me dinner last night and there is something so sexy about watching a man cook. Especially one who is trained in it. He has these massive hands and rawrrr

+1
Agreed.
It's cold and rainy today. So other than letting the dog out and switching out laundry, I do not plan to leave the couch. I've got plenty of homework/studying to keep me occupied.

Today is rainy and there is a chance for ice/sleet early tomorrow morning. Then the high is 51F. WTF weather...just give us spring already!
Today I feel lazy. I want to do Pilates and I thought about going the museum, but idk. It's only open 4 hours day and I don't feel like walking in the rain. I might finish a book that I've been ignoring.
I wanted to paint my nails green, but I've got an interview tomorrow. I guess I'll wear green instead!
I've been separated from my H for more than a month, and last night was the first time I've really cried about it. I cried as I talked in a therapy session a couple of weeks ago, but this is the first real out-loud-cry-myself-to-sleep episode. It felt good in a weird way.
He has been in the hospital for a week and has not been able to poop. Last night he finally did. I guess he went into the hallway and announced very loadly to his entire wing that he took a shit. My sister said the staff loves him and his humor.

It is a lovely 72 degrees outside so I have window open and my dog is just sitting on the porch looking all regal while he sniffs the fresh air.
I went back last week on my attempt to quit coffee. So my plan is to have my final cup (just got it from mcd's) and then use the 2 hour crest white strips on my teeth. Maybe that will be a good motivator.
Later I'm going to pack my gym bag and prep my breakfasts/lunches/snacks for the week. THEN I'm going to plan all my outfits for the week, including accessories. I want to start putting more effort into my appearance at work.

Also I'm researching dog steps for my bed. My dog doesn't have any trouble getting on the bed, but he's 9, so why make it harder for him than it needs to be, KWIM?
I was gonna use the rain as an excuse not to run, but I grabbed Willow and forced myself to go, even just for a few mins. We got 3 miles in before it started to rain and I am glad. Feel much better after how much beer I have consumed this weekend!!

I think crying can be so theraputic. Sometimes I think all the tears hold the negative feelings and letting those tears flow out is the bodies way of realeasing the bad feelings.

Sorry to hear about the break up but good for you for not sticking around when you know what you want and need.

Crying is definitely therapeutic. I spent WAY too much time trying to hold it all in and trying to be strong and tough when really I needed to give myself the opportunity to fall apart. I am sorry you are going through all this, but congrats on the crying!!
Thanks guys. I'm kind of heartbroken. I was really falling for him. And I need to go cry it out so I'll be fine.
When I start dating I hope I am as strong as you are. It takes a lot of strength to walk away from someone you care about because you know you deserve better. I was just telling another poster that I think crying is therapeutic, so cry it out if you need to!

I just downloaded a kindle book about compulsive eating and binge eating. I have a problem. I will do REALLY well and then I have a rough day and the only thing in my head that says it will make it better is food. I realized the other night that it is an actual problem when my mom said she was coming over in a couple minutes to drop something off and I rushed around to throw away all the evidence of what I'd eaten.

I'm babysitting my younger nephew. My sister had to work for a bit and my BIL took my older nephew to march in the Southie parade with his union. He was excited, but more excited to be taking the train into the city. He was so cute. We're watching the TV coverage hoping to see them. When she gets home I'm heading to a bridal shower.

Found out LTR was unfaithful. There were several other women. It's weird though, bc I'm not even mad. I'm hurt and shocked, but I feel no anger. It hurts my pride the most, I think. With that said, the other women he duped and I have gotten really close. Like a sisterhood, almost.
