Sunday stuff

[Deleted]

What's everyone up to? This board is so slow  .  

[Deleted]

It is so slow! I'm watching political movies to pump me up for my job on Monday. First up Ides of March. I'm also picking up my apartment. I'm starting on my new diet of carb cycling today. I'm going to be very dedicated this time and really focus on loving my body. My goal
is to rock a bikini by my girls weekend trip in August.

I have been so busy at work and with life in general. I'm trying to get into meditation and continue to eat healthy. I'm really trying to get my mind healthy. I haven't lost any more pounds but my clothes are starting to feel a little loose so I'm feeling a little less frustrated. Lazy Sunday today!

I slept in, made breakfast and then just lay around for awhile. I just finished doing some pilates videos, and now I'm watching the Yankees game. My BFF is flying in from Bogota today for work, so I'm meeting her in the city later for pedicures, then we're going to meet two other friends in Brooklyn for dinner. I guess I should get in the shower soon. lol

DD1 and I slept at the zoo last night with her Girl Scout troop, and about 5 others. Then we headed to my mom's to pick up DD2 and have been here since. We've been sunning and swimming, although the water is only 68 degrees so I only went in twice and walked around the pool and then got out. I didn't even get anything above my belly button wet, it was too darn cold!

We're leaving soon to pick up a few groceries, then get dinner ready, then we have baths/showers/cleaning:laundry to do when we get home. It has definitely been an exhausting weekend!

Today I've been trying to prep for tomorrow's interview. There's a lot riding on it because I already know if it goes well I'll be going back to spend a half day there on Thursday. I'm trying to write out answers to a few common questions, and write out my "stories" to illustrate a few of the more common behavioral questions out there. My nerves are on high alert right now and will be until the interview is done tomorrow morning.

Other than interview prep I've also been trying to catch up on house stuff. I'm definitely ready to go to bed.

I feel like @pdx with the whole Dating thing. I stopped. I joined meetup and have done things I like to do but it's tough always being alone. Not that I'm not okay with being alone. It's just that sometimes I wish I had someone rooting for me.

I also started my period so I'm just whiny. Pity party of 1 please.

[Deleted]

Eureka1984 I'm sorry you're feeling down! And obviously I totally get you. I have some friends who have encouraged me to join some civic organizations as well. In hoping that will help expand my social circle. I guess they have lots of well attended events so that should be fun.

My friend from 6 hours away came to visit. I was so excited about it and we were having a great time until Friday night, when I got an email from my boss titled, "URGENT!" Guys, someone made a complaint about me (a co-worker) that isn't true. And the worst part is, my boss simply took it as truth and reprimanded me for it in an email on a Friday night. No meeting with me to discuss my side and make sure it was sure, just a shitty email on a Friday night.

I responded that night and basically said I was very hurt that the complaint was taken as the truth regarding my character and work ethic and I address why the complaint is not true in the email. My boss did not respond.

I am so pissed and hurt. And over this job. Oh, and I never got my review Friday either...it was pushed to Monday without her even telling me. I had to message her to find out what time we were meeting and she then told me that she was out of the office all day.

I had fun with my friend, but there was this weight in my stomach the entire weekend. My life is so fucking frustrating.

Thanks. And I'm rooting for you as well. A civic thing sounds interesting. I'm trying not over analyze it but thats just what I do. I know it will get better.

I got up at 5:30 this morning and flew to the island for my conference this morning. Took a nice long nap and chilling out in my room for a bit. One of my agencies is hosting a dinner in about an hour so I'll head over to that. This place is really nice and quiet! The conference ends at 2:00 every day so plenty of beach time in the afternoon tomorrow!

I'm a slug. Yesterday I went to Barre, then a music festival which included miles of walking, I slept over 10 hours, then woke up and went to an aerial silk class. Everything has been fun, but I'm pooped!

[lookingup]

Just got home from work. Stopped by the grocery store on the way home where a guy asked for my number and I laughed. I'm going to be single forever.

This sounds amazing! What a good weekend.

It's still sweltering here. I'm sitting beside P in his pool drinking a margarita. He's hot a nerf super soaker so there's prob more pool water than alcohol in my drink right now. I'm excited for my San Diego trip with my coworker next week.

@pdx18 and Eureka1984 - I'm sorry you guys are feeling down. Dating sucks so much sometimes, especially after being married. I hope it gets better for both of you soon!

[dreamcrisp1]

I'm heading home from the cottage. Super exhausted. Dreading work TMR bc I hate my job so much. Sigh.

glitzyglow, that's so shitty. And inappropriate. She should have spoken to you in person and asked you about it. Poorly managed.

[Deleted]

Thanks abcdefu. My marriage was so shitty that being a line is way better. It's never having been in love that really had me down. I just don't know why me you know? Why don't I deserve love?

I totally get this.    I've got nothing to offer aside from company.  I hope we find amazing, once in a lifetime love.  

@glizyglow- What the actual fuck??  I can't believe your manager would do that, but I do. I'm pissed for you.  

[1confused1]

Just got back from a weekend away where the pretty much the only thing we talked about was my sister's pregnancy. Oh, and how I should start dating again.

Needless to say, I'm happy to be home.

[1confused1]

Hugs glitzy, she shoukd have spoken to you about it in person on Monday.

[Deleted]

winecat huge hugs! It's all so hard. glitzyglow what the actual fuck. I'm so sorry! That would ruin my weekend. I hope it works out!

[1confused1]

Also, my ex-boyfriend went to a bar we used to go to on Friday night and Facebook messaged me at 12:45am saying he's surprised he didn't run into me. First of all, wtf dude, you have a girlfriend, she's in your profile pic, why are you messaging me? second, I haven't talked to you since February, third, you know I have my kids and fourth, leave me alone!

I didn't respond.

I had a great weekend with a new friend. I had a few personal issues (mostly fears) that I had to work through, but I think it's better.

I'm realizing that my friends from several years ago and I are drifting off into different directions. It hurts a bit because our friendships are drifting too. But many of these friends are one who are in long term relationships and having children with plans for more. They are focusing mostly on family life now, where I am realizing DS is going to be my only. I am seeing myself drifting towards friends who are more of where I am in my life. Done having kids or no kids. Friends who I feel like I fit with better personality wise.

[glitzyglow]

Thanks guys. I keep getting upset now that my friend is gone. Why can't I find my little spot in the world to fit in professionally, romantically, or financially? I know I'm kitchen-sinking my throwing all this in together, but this was just another hit when I was already feeling vulnerable.

[Deleted]

Also: I had sex last night

[Deleted]

glitzyglow that sucks. I'm so sorry. Is it something you will be able to move past? I've had plenty of blips on the radar in my career. I hope this is one of those for you.

[1confused1]

glitzyglow I can't remember, are you in therapy?

No, I was waiting for my health insurance to kick in (90 day wait), which was supposed to be May 31st, but my job is changing providers and apparently I won't be covered now until mid-July due to the change.

I say this with all the love, from what you've been posting lately, I would encourage you to see if there is someone you can see now.
