Sorry, I'm bored. Having dinner with my former/conflicted/it's complicated bff. We grew apart/had issues for lame reasons. We've been trying to reconnect lately and we decided to REALLY have dinner. She said she's trying to shake up her routine and maybe during the week would be good-so I tell her H is off Wednesdays so I'm free. She created a facebook event for just the two of us and invited me LOL. I'm excited and already scanning the drink menu.
My plan for tomorrow is to go to swim practice at 5:30am. I have a meeting at 8:00 at school so I have to be there by 7:30 to at least prep for my morning. School starts at 8:35, then I have a stupid ass union meeting at 5:00. I read the agenda and it going to be so boring. The upside is they provide dinner. I hope it's good!
I'm not particularly looking forward to being up at 5:30 tomorrow morning, but I am going to enjoy sitting quietly in my car and at my desk without people talking to me non-stop.
I'm irritated with my H He's been working non stop. Then when he gets home he is exhausted and wants to check out, so he watches a movie on his iPad wth his earphones in. I get he needs to decompress but M misses him and I'm exhausted.
We're going to have to talk about it tonight and I'm kind of dreading it.
We just got called off for tmrw because of cold temps. I think it's a little overreaction but whatever, I'll take it. My H is off already anyway so we have the whole day to ourselves after we send DS to school! We are watching the golden globes and deciding which movie(s) we want to go see.

The weather outside is horrific. Sooo windy and cold. My dog was so over it and pulled me back home. I hope it's less windy in the morning for my walk to work because I don't want to go underground.
RexManningDay ok yes! I just did this this evening without knowing what it was called. It's overwhleming, but will feel great...I hope.
I'm being ruthless. But as I go I'm also making a list of things I need or need to replace. Maybe that's not the point, but I do need them and it will feel better than keeping four "almost right" version around and hating them.
Yes! I had a girlfriend come over and help me choose. I have 5 huge trash bags full of clothes to donate. To DONATE. Not including the trash clothes. Why do I buy so many thiiiings? I rediscovered a ton of clothes I love too, so that was a bonus.
DH and I have been alternating between being hateful to each other to being completely normal and laughing together, etc, all day long. It's bizarre. It's like we both have PMS or something. I'm exhausted, my head is pounding, my stomach is churning, I so need another day off tomorrow. I kind of hope I wake up feeling this way because I will totally call in sick if I do. But I'm sure I'll feel just fine in the morning and will have to work like a responsible adult, setting a good example for my kid and all.
DH helped a ton today with meal prep for the week and just cleaned the kitchen for the second night in a row. I love that guy.
I need to get packed up for tomorrow. Week 2 of working out. I'm actually looking forward to it! It's so, so hard in the moment and I've been really sore all week, though it's finally easing up today, but I can already tell that I'm going to start feeling like myself again soon.
I'm a lurker, but I did your situation reversed - European married American, moved to US. I'd travelled a TON before - lived abroad extensively alone. Actually hadn't even been living with my family for more than a 4-6 month stretch for years. I sobbed like a baby going through immigration when I was leaving 'for good'. It felt so different. And it was. I've obviously been home to visit a ton, and people have come here to visit me, but I was making my permanent home here. But it is my home, with my husband, and a career that I never imagined at home, and amazing friends. I still have moments where I'm like FUCK! THIS IS MY LIFE! but I wouldn't want it any other way.
I've been super lurkery stalking you over the last months, and saw your post the last couple days and just wanted to give you a hug. There are so many fucking emotions - and they're all going to be ok - I'm so excited to see how you flourish in Edinburgh.

My fil was apparently up half the night last night throwing up. Ds spent the day at their house on Friday. I will throw things if that kid winds up with a stomach bug. We have gone 3 1/2 years without vomit...I really don't want to start now.
We are going to look at a 55 acre property tomorrow. The house is definitely outdated, and you can tell it's a grandma and grandpa house, but we're thinking we'd live there while h builds a new house on the property. We're getting way ahead of ourselves with thinking about what we would do, lol.
