I'm up early because we're moving today. And it's POURING. Oy! Good thing we rented a truck.
I have to go get breakfast stuff and supplies for making Bloody Mary's for the movers who are helping me once P wakes up.
I really am amazed because a year ago when I was moving things from my house near W to my house here (about a 35 minute drive) I didn't have ANYONE to help me. I enlisted one of my brother's friends who's a cowboy and we basically did it all ourselves. It was a huge pain and required multiple trips. This time I have my friend K, his gf, my friend J, my friend T and another cowboy who offered his trailer the other day (he's coming in the afternoon). I feel very lucky to have made the friends I have!
I've developed a new mindset on work and dating. I'm valuable as a financial advisor and I'm a catch for someone I might be dating. If they don't realize that it's best to move on to someone else (with work prospects obviously I check back in, periodically and I only give up after about 5 attempts). But I think life is too short to "chase" people who don't deserve your time. That's my soapbox speech for the morning!
And P had a full WEEK of good progress reports. I'm so relieved!

I am so glad to hear P is doing better in school!! good luck with the move today
I need to spend the day seriously cleaning my house today. I really want to hire a house cleaner. I had sex with a guy on the second date this week. It was awesome and much needed but now I'm feeling all vulnerable which I hate. Analyzing every text etc. I need to snap out of it! Lol
I went out with 23 last night and it was really fun! He took me to a really cool new restaurant with great food (Cajun!). They had a live band which sounded fun but the only problem was it was so loud we had to yell. I feel like I was saying "what?" All night. We had a drink after dinner across the street and got carded and were joking about the bartender probably saying wtf. So I asked him what year he was born. 1991. Ha! I graduated hs in 1992, so really I'm old enough to be his mom. But it doesn't really feel like there's an age difference when we talk. I like him a lot. We have a third date planned! Yay!!
Ann Taylor is 50% off this whole weekend!! So excited, I need new clothes so bad!!
I have a dr apt Wednesday about my knee. It's been bothering me for 3 years. I've done PT and that helped for a year but it's hurting again. I'm going to have the surgery. Ugh. At least I'm in a house now with my bedroom on the first floor. I opted not to have the surgery before bc I lived on the third floor.

I'm alternating between lazing on my iPad and packing/getting ready to go away for the night. We're going to Portland, ME for our anniversary. We sooooo want to announce the pregnancy on FB today, I keep wavering back and forth on it!! I'll be 11 weeks tomorrow, have had 4 great ultrasounds, I should have nothing to worry about right???
I am so annoyed. Today I am working an event and I just checked my email. My boss emailed me last night (why didn't she text me?!) that she had to move me to a spot that requires me to act; my previous assignment was just monitoring kids. I am not even going to try to learn the script until I get to work because I don't have time and I made plans for my time up until the event.

If you want to, DO IT! Don't let the man get you down!

Yay for P !
the bolded is the mindset i adopted after my split when after ALOT of soul searching, i realized that i chased xh ... he didn't deserve me and i should have said 'next !' but i didn't. oh the things we learn from the mistakes we make ! now they have to chase me and if its meant to be, its meant to be !
Unpacking today. I moved last weekend and I can barely get my car in the garage there are so many boxes. Bought a house and it feels so good for it to be just MINE! (And DD's LOL)
I have a date tonight with someone who works for a competitor of my company. He's cute and 35 and has a beard. He just moved to the area from SC so we're trying out a new restaurant. He also lives 3 blocks away and works around the corner from me. We've had awesomely witty texts and selfies so I'm hoping tonight is just as fun!
Yesterday my boss mentioned that he feels bad because myself and the other guy at work are both doing everything but what we were hired to do. I'm glad he recognizes that we're working hard given the tough circumstances. Such a difference from my last job!
Last night I had dinner with law school friends (one was in from out of town) and it was sooo good to catch up!
starburst604 go for it! Glad P had a good week achase! Make sure not to let your friends drink until after they all drive your stuff over!
I'm still sick. Booooo! I'm slowly but surely getting my house cleaned up in between couch time. Currently watching the documentary "Unhung Hero" anyone got any good netflix suggestions for documentaries, suspense (but not horror) or comedy? I'm soooo bored hahaha.
We had breakfast, did some yard work and now I'm on my iPad in the yard. The weather is beautiful. But I don't feel great. My stomach is off since last night and I have a headache. A coworker was sick with a stomach bug and I really hope I'm not getting it too.

Your update made me smile. Really happy things seem to be turning around for you. Enjoy the fresh start in your new home.

The kids are supposed to be with their dad. I just saw them at my son's football game and as of 1245, they hadn't seen him. They were with their grandparents. So weird.
I have no plans this weekend, which I'm excited about. Hoping to sex it up later, if mother nature cooperates.
Hope moving day has been a success achase123. Feel better those of you not on your game.
H worked today. I slept until 10:30, walked the dog, got a manicure and pedicure, picked up dog food, and got groceries. Oh yeah, and picked up pumpkins for carving tonight.
That is if H ever comes home from work. Hey, I am seeming like a broken record from last night. hmmmpf

Things are going better with the BF. He said he doesn't want to run from anything and wants to get help to fix it. He's also volunteering more and that has helped as well. Thanks for all your help, im proceeding with caution but am hopeful
Today is a lazy weekend for me. Got my hair done yesterday and thinking of getting my toes done today.
S went to her first Halloween party with my aunt and uncle. We haven't really integrated her with other children yet, and she did amazingly! So social and she had a fabulous time playing in leaves and hanging out with the kiddos. I ended up working at my retail job being stock girl. We are home, she's dead asleep, I'm drinking a beer and watching Constantine. I have a date tomorrow night with RR. I'm excited.
