Monday moans and groans

It's the first full week back of the new year... yay?

How was your weekend?

Mine was good. I did a whole lot of nothing

There are so many things I want to do, but all of them take money. I'm so frustrated with all of my debt. Everything I have is going to pay down student loans, personal loans, medical debt, and credit card debt...there is literally nothing left.

I ordered a budget planner over the holiday season, and I'm finally sitting down with it today. What I'm learning is that I'm clearly not making enough money. *sigh*

Hi! I'm a mixed bag. I had two weeks off. Spent Christmas in Prague. It was magical and awesome. Came back and had a good new years and was extraordinarily lazy around the house. However at the end of the week/weekend my H came down with a fever and is still sick and I'm struggling with something. Ugh.

I've started back on my eating right and am already feeling less bloated, and my belt is one notch smaller today so that is something positive. I wish I could eat all the things and not gain weight. I'm also doing dry January, no drinking all month to kick start the new year being a bit healthier.

Moans: I was a dick yesterday to R. It was honest, but my delivery was shit. We're talking it out. Tomorrow is another chemo day and I'm kinda burnt out by being the fun chemo friend, but she's almost done so I will put on my happy face and do it. I love DD's dog, but my house smells like dog so I'm counting down until she's gone (11 more days). I saw a text from XH to DS about maybe putting down the electronics and doing homework/showering before he plays. Way to step in and act like a parent, buddy. Where've you been the last however many years?!?


Not moans? I feel like I'm finding way too many negative things everywhere I go, so I'll add some positive stuff. I had such a fun night with R and his staff on Friday night. They were really sweet and funny and they sang karaoke. I bullied R into singing and he was pretty good and I was proud of him for having the guts to do it. I helped my friend set up a Tinder yesterday. She's not dated in 19 years and is ready to put herself out there. She was so funny swiping on people and her commentary "Oh, no David, why would you have that picture? I'm sorry Jamie, you're bald. Ohhhh nooooo, Bill, I'm not interested in you and your girlfriend's sweet tooth." It was hilarious. She's on the prowl for a silver fox but then told us in a non-whisper whisper that she thinks she's a cougar lol!

The weekend was fantastic - we had 2 days of sunshine after what seem like MONTHS of rain, we planned a bunch of days off and a couple quick weekend trips for Feb, and we went to see Hamilton, which is amazing. M wanted to know if we could see it again before the show moves on in a couple weeks. LOLOLOL. I had to live in front of my computer screen for a while to score tickets, so good luck with that!

My moan is for this morning - I had a "fabulous" gyn appointment to replace my IUD. Guys, it hurt so much worse than the initial insertion. I was that person in the office actually screaming and thought I was going to have to tell my doctor to forget about it and get out of there, then I got put in a holding room afterwards for a good hour because my blood pressure dropped and I came close to passing out. I made it home and went straight to bed, although I really should be at my work laptop, since this is a workday and all. F this.

OUCH, chalupa

[tiramisu]

Oh my goodness chalupa, that's terrible!


My Monday was pretty good overall. It's weird to be back after two weeks off. I did get some good things done, but it was hard to fully get my brain back into work mode. No real moans or groans otherwise, though.

Yikes chalupa, that sounds horrible.

My moan is that I got the stomach flu in the middle of the night sunday night/monday morning and actually threw up in my bed. To add insult to injury, as i was in the bathroom "finishing up" my cat decided to go mark her territory where I got sick. Yeah I was washing bedding at 3AM in the morning.
