Last night I ended up going out with my roommate. The first bar we went to had terrible music, so we hit a 2nd bar that was okay, and finally ended at a bar that was playing some really fun music. We ended up playing flippy cup with a random group and had a blast. I'm so glad went we out. I didn't go to bed until 4:30am and woke up at 2pm, lol. So today I've just laid around, went for a run, and now I think some friends are coming over to drink wine in front of the tree with me. Tomorrow I think I am going to a local museum I haven't been to. I'm really excited.
Ever since turning 30, I've had a lot of people tell me that I seem so much lighter/happier and my best friend said it seems like I've had a "pep in my step" for a while now. It's scary to admit because I'm scared it will go away, but I do feel really good. I really have focused on trying to be more grounded, doing meditations, and being more positive and it's working. Working on me is also enjoyable, so it's a win-win!
I'm excited that I don't have to go into the office tomorrow. I'm planning to spend my evening reading and might watch the Colts game. I bought a new planner today for 2016. I think I'm going to use part of it to record one sentence a day from a self-reflection standpoint. Journals are too much of a commitment, but I think even I can handle one sentence a day.
I was a mess today. Stbxh came over today to pick up more stuff and it made me so, so sad. We ended up having a good talk and both reaffirmed that getting divorced is hard but really the best thing for us. I don't have a lot of bad days but today was one of them.
Last night instead of writing I went and bought some more holiday decorations. Procrastination at its best. But my apartment looks more festive now, which I like. Today I ran and went to yoga and now I'm actually getting some work done.
I went to yoga twice today and did some work. I'm trying another crockpot recipe. I have a dysfunctional relationship with the crockpot. Things are never as good as people say they are, but I keep trying!
I went to a tree lighting this evening with dd. She had a good time despite having some kind of stomach thing going on yesterday and some of today (I think her molars are coming in). We decorated the house over the weekend. The house feels so much warmer with Christmas decorations.
I'm going to a wedding on Friday. It'll be my first solo event and I can't even tell you how excited I am! I'm even getting uber to drive me so I can enjoy some adult beverages.
