I'm planning a mini vacation and I don't know where to go. I was going to just do a staycation, but I need a break from my environment. I have been going through medical records like crazy trying to put stuff together for my attorney, plus working full time and going to doctor appointments.
I just want to go lay on the beach, read a book, and drink malibu!

Bf is closing on his refi today to get exw off the house. She gave him some very stringent deadlines and I know she convinced herself he wouldn't be able to do it and then they would sell. She would still get her money, but he would have to be out of the house. She did not want him to keep it. HA HA. Not only did he meet, he exceeded your stupid deadlines. I'm happy for him. He needed this win after a long and drawn out divorce process.
I've been up since 4:30. Seems to be a theme lately. Unfortunately I have to be up all day with DS today and tomorrow and I have to work all night tonight. And I'm doing the 3 day potty training method with DS. Fun times.
Eta: and as I'm typing this DS pees on the couch. What a way to start.

My muscles are sore today from 2 awesome workouts yesterday. AND, I didn't stuff my face when I got home from work and actually stuck to my meal plan for the day!
I have speed dating tonight. I'm trying to pump myself up because in the back of my mind I keep hearing "there won't be anyone good there, why are you even bothering to go?". So my brain isn't helping me, but I have yet to find anyone while I'm sitting on my couch, and the last guy I did find on my couch (Match) told me to steal a Keurig.

pantsoffdanceoff, I LOVE your attitude - speed dating will be fun, be sure to update us!
@stpete congrats on the weight loss!
This morning has started off great - a peaceful walk with my pup before the sun came up, a nice cup of coffee and reading my favorite blogs and news for the day, and I'm having a good hair day. Terrific Tuesday, indeed!

It's a dreary rainy morning, it was really hard waking up! Going to make some coffee.
P's son is most likely moving in with him. I spent the night last night and we all had dinner and watched TV. It feels normal us all hanging out. His son is 15 and I thought it was really sweet he was asking my advice on homework questions.

@stpete, I think you're making the right decision w/r/t dating. I hope you can finally shake DB for good.
My next kid-free weekend is looking like it is going to be overbooked. Holy crap. I told my sister that my dance card for September was full, apparently not full enough.
I took yesterday off unpaid from work to get some homework done and to finish a project, oh, and sleep. I don't care if it's unpaid. It was lovely.
I got talked to when I got to work today about my unpaid time. Womp womp.
I just ordered an alarm clock with Amazon Prime so I can put it across the room and make sure I get up on time. I always hit snooze on my phone. Bunches of crap, because I LOVE MY SLEEP!
I miss S hard. I dropped her at her dad's this morning and I wanted to cry. I'm feeling overly loving lately.
FI hits it every morning and it ruins my last 30 mins of sleep.
My wedding dress fit perfectly when I bought it, I lost 5 lbs because my second soccer league started up and the dress was loose... Not enough time to get it all altered, so I actually have to make an effort NOT to lose weight before my wedding. Oh darn.
I stayed home sick again. I just woke up, which was so nice! I already feel better than yesterday. Now I'm wondering if I should make an effort to go in to work this afternoon, but that is when my fever hit yesterday and I don't want to risk it. So, home I stay. I'll catch up on more SOA.

I ate one of my favorite snacks last night-pickles and orange juice. My husband looked at me like I had two heads. Anyone who has ever seen me eat this gives me the same look. It's delicious, people. Best combination ever!
The first time my mom saw me eat it was when I had been with my HS BF for about 6 months and she asked if I was pregnant. In front of him. *-)
I had a 14 hour work day yesterday, got home at 10:30 and still got up at 4:30 for my 5 am lower body workout class. I rewarded myself with a salted caramel mocha?. I did what I could to make it a 'skinny' mocha though:). That's all I've got?
@stpete I think that is a great idea. It sucks that you still have feelings for a guy who is, well, a DB, but sometimes the head and the heart don't agree. Just push through. Examining why you still have those lingering feelings is good. And good job on the weight loss...I'm still woefully at the same place I was months ago. At least I'm not gaining?
I'm still feeling blah today...but I have pilates after work, maybe that will bump me from blah to ok.

I wish I could stop with the snooze button. I am the WORST with it - I hit it at least 3 times everyday. I think I would feel better if I just got up but it is so hard!
I have a realtor coming to look at my house tomorrow. Still on the fence if I want to keep it or sell and buy something cheaper. Lots of decisions to make!
jigsy what's up, girly? What's the status with Vegas?
I don't know man...I am just feeling so meh right now. Vegas is still around. We actually had a great time Friday/Saturday. I guess it is probably just a combo of everything...work is blah, I'm PMS'ing a little so emotions, just general blah you know.
I'm excited for your trip though. Living vicariously, FTW!

Things may be back on with M. We had a honest talk last night, he apologized for a lot and said he would make a better effort in this relationship. He says he wants to be the boyfriend, but I told him he has to show me, not just tell me. We'll see where this goes...
I'm thinking about filling out an application for a PT retail job. I really am trying to pay off my car ASAP so I can get a bigger one, and any extra will really help. I don't know if I'm going to be wearing myself thin, but eh. My FT job is offering no overtime and I see none coming up in the future until maybe next June.
I'm not sure if this is smart or crazy. I am dwindling down my debt slowly. My credit cards are all paid off. I just really need to work on getting my car paid down. I'm tired just thinking about it lol.
Not matter how much caffeine I consumed today, it wasn't doing the trick. I'm currently in the waiting room of my dermatologist (near my job) and then it's about an hour to get home.. I'm so tired I feel like I'm going to doze off while typing this.
