How is everyone? How were your weekends? What got you through your Monday?

Hey, hey, hey!

Weekend was good but busy! Book club Friday night, Saturday we bought a shed (riveting, I know) and then went out to dinner with one if P's friends. He got engaged and so we met the FI. I told P that I give the marriage less than 5 years. I was also vaguely irritated as the friend started spouting off political BS comments. I politely shut him down while telling him I didn't agree with his views. Sunday I had brunch with a friend.

What got me through Monday is knowing I'm on vacation next week, LOL. I am counting down! Turning 40 next week is also vaguely getting to me as I was researching estheticians last night as I don't love my skin care routine.

I am co-presenting a training at work today. my co-presenter and I created the training together and it has now been adopted as a required training in our company, which is pretty amazing. Of course, in today's group the one person I ever actually dated from work will be there. he is the one who ended things, so that will be not at all awkward.

My weekend was really good, even though I knew that it meant my spring break was almost over. Friday I celebrated my friend's birthday with her in the morning and after my dance class.

Saturday and Sunday I had no plans, which helped because on Saturday one of my friends texted me that she had just had a panic attack. She came over and we hung out for a while in my apartment, then went and got sandwiches and had a mini picnic in the park. I did some more purging of my apartment this weekend as well.

What got me through yesterday was focusing on getting some paperwork done and thinking about the fact that I will probably be done there soon. Also, anticipating finally going to see The Lego Movie 2. I went last night to a late showing, and even though I'm exhausted today, it was worth it!

The weekend was ok. sunday i broke down. I am trying to be strong for my girls and think positive about the future. But the fear of how we will be able to live here, in this area, apart is real as is the realization of getting a job and all the changes that will come with that. It is a lot.

But have reached out to friends in similar situations, which has been good and getting together with my friends this weekend, which will be fun.
