I realized this morning thanks to time hop (I like that it also just shows pics you took and not only things you posted) that I have been officially been divorced for a year today. It kind of seems perfect that I am going to this concert by myself tonight.
It's a two cup of coffee morning. I signed up as a substitute teacher and hopefully I'll be able to start next week.
One thing I did learn from hating my job is that I felt it was like a regression and then I was talking with my sister last night and she was like "an arrow goes backwards before it shoots forward." I never really thought about it that way but I like the quote!
I saw a fender bender happen this morning when I was driving in. I was anxious the rest of my commute in. On top of that, the guy in front of me was texting!
I feel like no matter how much I sleep, I'm always sleepy. Does anyone else feel that way?
I legit just watched Frozen instead of working. I have jewelry to make, orders to package up, but nope, Frozen was on and I got sucked in for about the millionth time.
I do not have any real friends just a bunch of acquaintance. My only real friend is male and since my divorce is not final he does not want to hangout with me. We dated years ago but we are just friend now. I get that he does not want to get into my divorce drama.
I am sick of H and having to live with him. He is being Father of the year for DD right now which is great but he would not even take her with him to the store before his affair.
So I gave notice on Monday and my boss is just now realizing he is losing a good employee. I can't stand his assistant and she is part of the reason I'm leaving. We have a meeting scheduled next Tuesday and I know he is going to ask me to stay.
I need to just vent this out. I'm not sure what to do. I'm miserable with the petty office politics but generally the job isn't hard. But then I think about piece of mind. Some days I would come home so angered and upset.
The pay is so much better than then teaching but I ultimately love teaching. I know that if I stick with him at least another 5 months I could pay some stuff down.

if the work isn't the problem and your boss isn't the problem either, then I would stay. the BS with people is at every job. I have that too, but i dont mind my work, so it doesnt bother me
I would worry about staying after giving notice because they know that you have one foot out the door. At least right now you are leaving on your terms.

I am having a rough day. I had an attorney be condescending to me (again) and I am feeling bad now. Like, do I really just suck at my job? Am I really just not that smart? Is it not that my boss is kind of an ass, but that I am kind of a moron? I am now scared I am going to suck at my new job, end up jobless, homeless, divorced and alone. I think this is a panic attack?
Hugs jojoandleo. You do not suck. We all mess up sometimes. The attorney was a jerk for being condescending though.
You just got a great new job, they don't think you suck. They interviewed you, assessed your skills and qualifications and picked YOU over the other candidates.
You won't end up jobless, homeless, divorced and alone. I promise!

Thanks calle28. I think everything going on is just majorly stressing me out. Hopefully I will start the new job and love it and be great at it. LOL. I just basically got called stupid and asked to talk to my boss. But, whatever. Not my problem anymore, right?
jojoandleo I think toward the end of a job bosses can get especially salty. Don't let this get you down. It's not worthy stressing over. What can he do? fire you?
I would take some time before the new job starts and write day legitmate areas of improvement that were identified in your past job and how you will tackele those in this new job. Then write down the unfounded criticims and burn that list. Symbolically let it go and and start the new job fresh and without negativity from the previous job.
I know it all sounds pretty corney but stuff like that really helps me.

I am so over my life. My therapist said pointed out some things yesterday that are getting me down, my kids are struggling with life, and I've got drama in parts of my life that should be easy.
glynn how much longer do you have to live with him? I'm sorry you're feeling badly. Can you take some time for yourself and do something for you?
We have a house that we need to sell and a child with issues that we have to deal with. As soon as our house sell I am out with DD. He can't pay child support until the house sell so he said DD and I could stay and he would move out. He has not moved out like agreed upon 8/1. He sees is girlfriend at work everyday then comes and goes when ever he wants. I do not feel like I can do anything other than go to the gym at 5AM when they are in the bed. DD is a lot of work and get upset if I am not where she thinks I should be.
I want to fell wanted and needed by another adult.
