Win: I dropped my smaller wedding pictures off yesterday to get framed. I should have the entire wall done by the end of the month. YAHOO! I am just waiting to hear from the photographer when the big pieces will be in.
Win: I think we also found a piece of art for our great room. It's only taken us two years, lol.
Whine: My right shoulder is killing me today. It's been hurting for months. I'm beginning to suspect arthritis because I don't remember doing anything that would have damaged the tendons and the ache seems to come and go. Guess I need to go to the doctor... *grumble*
Win: The salmon patties I made for dinner last night kicked butt! I used ground up pork rinds for breadcrumbs (we're on the keto diet), and they made the flavor so good. They were even better for breakfast this morning!
Win: two full days of suicide prevention training for adorable freshman (one I'm pretty in love with) went really well and since I got my boss to approve it in my job description, I was paid for it all!
Whine: I think I need a new mattress (again). My body hurts, my arms/hands go numb and I don't feel rested. I don't want to figure out what mattress to buy and I don't really have the money to spend on it either.
Win/Whine: XH is going to be out of town this weekend so I'll have DS 3 weekends in a row (plus part of the day on his next weekend with him in 4 weeks). While I love my kid and will take any extra time I can get, I really need a break from him and could use a few days without anyone to take care of.
Win: The workgroup I'm part of prepped an activity with a bunch of affirmation post its for an event next week. We had such a great time and it was really positive!
Whine: I'm also starving today. Craving salty junk food, of course on a day I brought petty healthy food to eat all day.
Win: I decided to try on bras yesterday evening and discovered why I've been uncomfortable in EVERY.SINGLE.ONE. I own lately. They're all two cup sizes too small, which blew my mind. I got on the scale this morning and I really haven't put on weight like I thought, so I guess it's just somehow redistributed. I used to be barely an A cup (like in high school), so this is just completely shocking to me still.
I have another whine... I had to leave DBT group early today because my boss asked for something "ASAP." I told him I could handle it in one hour, thinking I would start working on it in one hour. He skyped me back saying he needed it done in one hour. Fine. No emotion regulation for me today. Why does self care have to be so hard
Win: I'm excited about my new job and office. H found an awesome car and bought it for our car side business. We have barely started detailing it, but put it up and already have interest. Yipee.
Whines: The hurricane is bringing rain to our area but it is still in the 80s! I want fall weather. I also don't want rain for the next week. Lame whine since the people in the hurricane path have way more going.
Even More FWP my smart tv and amazon prime app are suddenly not playing nice. I've tried everything. reboot, reinstall and still no luck. I want to watch the Man in the High Castle.
Whine - We offered on a house this weekend. Negotiated a few times and couldn’t come to agreement. The seller’s argument in the end was, “I came down from ask by $X. I’m not coming down further.” The flaw in that arguement is that her asking price was unreasonable. Her final number was just a lower unreasonable number. We won’t overpay for a house so we are walking. Back to the drawing board.
Win - C and I have worked through this process really well together. We tend to be on the same page and we seem to be balancing each other really well emotionally.
Win - So remember the douchebag dude that I was dating and then found out he has a live in girlfriend, well it FINALLY looks like she is going to leave his ass. I contacted her directly to let her know how much of a piece of shit her boyfriend is. She seems like a very nice but highly naive girl. Apparently he did this same thing to her last fall and she stuck by him because he basically talked his way out of it. SO in my world, another asshole getting what he deserves is a win!
Whine - I am at the library and it is loud as hell here. Apparently libraries are no longer the "hush, whisper if you must talk" places they use to be. There is a huge kids indoor play area with super loud toys that just adds to the noise. It drives me nuts.
