Tuesday randoms

[1confused1]

It's only Tuesday.  Damn.

I want to shake the poster on ML who updated about her cheating husband. 

I woke up with sore throat, I really hope I'm not getting sick.

I've picked up a cold and I cannot stop sneezing. I also feel really tired, so I plan on going to bed early tonight. Hopefully I can kick this cold before it gets worse.

I'm listening to Mindy Kaling's book Why Not Me and I am really enjoying it so far. It's making me look forward to driving home!

I'm in a work shit storm and in a make shift "war room" to do damage control. I want a shower and a fresh pair of sweat pants. I've become irrationally defensive of the Konmari organizing method. It has truly changed my life.

My best friend moved back from D.C. And I feel like my "family" is back together again. I'm so happy!

I need to find a better balance of going out and meeting people and staying in. I'm very much a homebody but I don't think it's very healthy for me right now. I'm hoping that in a few months when I can get a full time job I'll have a better sense of how to create that balance.

mommadukes that's a (future) concern of mine as well. Maybe once you put yourself out there you'll find it's not that much of an issue for the right guys?

Seriously. I am glad they used an AE because this would change my opinion of someone I liked real quick.


It is pouring here. And I didn't bring a lunch, so I have to walk somewhere. I hope I don't drown.

Yesterday, I started out great eating healthy. Today, someone brought brownies and I ate just the tiniest sliver. Trying to remind myself that a tiny sliver of brownie does not mean I should throw in the towel on healthy eating - I tend to get very 'all or nothing' with food, which isn't sustainable or healthy.

Today is a good day at work, I am on top of my shit and closed a few accounts in a good way. Days like this make me feel like maybe I could keep doing this, but I meed to remember that these days are few and far between.

My boss just brought me a new heater for under my desk! I have the best boss!

Its been raining on and off here. I need to bring in the trash cans but I dont want to get wet!

Woke up with some weird ass abdominal pain and I cant figure out wtf it is. It isnt digestive issues and when I stretch out it feels like a pulled muscle but I haven't done anything to warrant any muscle soreness. Strange!

The damn taco cleanse thread on the CEP board has me wanting tacos for lunch but I have no $$ on me and the local taco joint makes you spend $8 to use debit/credit cards.

I am so antsy for Friday to be here and the divorce to be final. It's weird, like, I've been all "la di da whatever, it's just a piece of paper, it's over in your head" for the past year, but now that it's so close to being legally ACTUALLY over? I just want it done with and the fact that it's not is driving me insane. So...one note posting from me until Friday. And God help everyone if something goes wrong.

I'm with everyone on the idea that its only Tuesday. C'mon Friday!!

I am doing well today though and happy that I have been keeping up with my goals. Through therapy last week, I learned that I totally am always looking for another job which is a pattern I learned through my mother. When I was younger my mother constantly switched jobs and was a single mom.

I want this year to be my year where I find peace and stability. I do want a new job and I want to find something I love other than education. Looking on Craigslist and Indeed though the pickings are slim and I am nervous that I don't know what I am going to do.

crossing everything for you TR good luck!

I lurk sometimes in ML and saw the post as well. I think she is doing a lot of deflecting to justify the getting back together. I think it's a little naive but I guess she is going back to him knowing that she is taking a risk. I just hope she takes precautions and at least got tested.

I got my hair done and because I was going lighter, the process wasn't easy. My hair is so damaged from it that I almost cry every single time I brush it. I really do regret it and wish I would have kept my black hair the way it was.

Have you tried some leave-in conditioners? My hair is also really, really damaged, but some leave-in conditioners have been true miracle-workers. gozf recommended this to me and it worked wonderfully. I also liked It's a 10 Leave-In Conditioner.

Yay, that stuff is great, and so cheap. I also love It's a 10!

Truly, though, the best thing I ever did for my hair was olaplex treatments. It was FRIED from my stint as a platinum blonde, and the olaplex completely brought it back to life. I highly recommend it to anyone whose hair is damaged. It's a game changer.

Thanks!! I am going to get them later this month that I am in the US and hope they work miracles because I need one lol.

My hair is also much shorter than I am used to so I feel weird because of that. It will grow up quickly anyway.

Seriously, if it's really fried, talk to your stylist to see if they do olaplex treatments. I wish I had done it sooner.

Found out yesterday that my boss put an offer out for the open postition opposite me. I have mixed feelings about it. While I'm happy that I won't be so overwhelmed, I'm also going to miss the overtime. I should have it for another month or two yet though. And, with working with my previous cw for 11 years, I'm worried I won't have as good a relationship with the newbie. Probably putting way too much thought into this.
