My week has been exceptionally good! I had a major win at work yesterday. I really thought I'd be able to make this thing happen...in like, a year. To have that success come way sooner than expected was so super cool and fulfilling.
Talked to a friend of mine this morning who is trying to fix me up on a blind date. We'll see about that.
Had a little CTJ talk with the contractor who is potentially going to manage my renovation. I laid out EXACTLY what I expect and what I will NOT tolerate. He seemed to appreciate the candor and my being so forthright. He's got exactly one more shot to get this right before I take my money elsewhere.
I posted this in the CEP randoms, but I've been sleeping like crap lately. Leg cramps, back cramps, and these random full body stretches that wake me up and shake the bed. I've gotten used to wearing the CPAP, but now there's all these other things keeping me awake at night. I just want to sleep!
And yes, I am thirsty for something today - I would absolutely love a good, strong mojito. And a beach on which to drink it.
One of my good friend is on vacation in Ireland and it’s making me so antsy for our trip in July. I can’t wait for a real vacation!! We still have 6 weeks to go though, but got the dogs all booked in the places they will be staying while we’re gone.
Yesterday and the day before I did a lot of training in front of computers. I'm so glad I'm going to be in the field today and tomorrow. I get my safety training today, too. I don't think it'll help at all with how to less-uncomfortably wear the vest, but I'm hoping there's a small piece on that. I think it's mostly situational awareness types of things. Clearly my life is still pretty much consumed with working.
I have been talking to some guys on Bumble, but it's not going anywhere yet and one was a total douche, so yeah, my focus is much more professional at the moment.
I need something beachy after my day yesterday. I bought an electric bike a few weeks ago. It's amazing because it can really help getting up the massive hills in my city and keep me safe in traffic. My H and I have been using them everyday since we got them. He's used his to commute to work cutting his time in half. However Tuesday my bike had malfunction and needed to go in the shop.
Then my brother had car issues, he came over and my H and I asked questions about it overheating. We ended up being able to replace the thermostat valve and fill the car with coolant again. My fingers are still crossed that he didn't crack the engine block. I'm really anxious about it and didn't sleep at night over it.
So I would like all the beach drinks please. I also want to get out of town and do something fun instead I have a wedding in Indianapolis that is black tie so I need to find a dress for it and travel there.

Thursday already?! Where does the week go. I would love a glass of wine on my friend's balcony in Spain or back patio in Colorado. I love hearing vacation plans so I can live vicariously through others.
Work is slow and that makes it a little boring. I want more work to keep me busy right now. I'm doing some marketing/business development for my job and I'm much better at the technical side of things, so it's something that makes me a little apprehensive. But I'm not against it... just trying to learn more.
So, I have come to realize that the woman H was having an emotional, with a bit of physical, affair with has wanted or liked him for 5 years. He looks a lot like other men she has dated and even cheated with in the past. Apparently, within weeks of meeting him for the first time he saw that she looked at his linked in account twice. He was not on FB until two years ago, so that avenue was not open to her before. this all feels so sick and personal. I just can't get over this woman and her many issues.
And, I am so fucking pissed that H was weak enough to fall for her not so great shit. Yes, so we were having a rough patch so that makes it ok. I am just so incredibly disappointed in him.
Hugs cleo29. Is there anything you can do tonight for yourself to shift the focus back onto you? A bath? A good book to read. A long walk. I know it’s hard, but small steps of taking care of yourself will become larger over time.
