Finally FRIDAY!!

Sooo glad its Friday... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Now if only 5 o'clock would get here.

No major plans for me this weekend but glad to have some down time. The hubby and I have been on the rocks the past two weeks so hopefully things will get better this weekend. I just stay all messed up when we aren't getting along, not sleeping, not feeling well, just down in the dumps.

I start Fall classes in 1 more week in which I will be going to class 5 days a week... yuck! I was initially going to take some time off work but now with things being weird between hubby and I I'm afraid that money stress could make things worse so I am venturing out and becoming a consultant for home decor company.. not my dream job but if I stay at my current then I'll be going to class 5 days a week, working weekends, and will never get to see DH. I've never sold anything in my life!!! So I am a little freaked out I just don't know if I'll be any good at it... but I guess if it means more time with DH, flexible hours, and atleast some cash I'll have to do what I gotta do?

Re: Finally FRIDAY!!

  • Have seen you in a while! Good to have you back!

    Good luck with school, the job and the hubby situation.  I can imagine that's pretty tough.  But you're going to school to ultimately make more money, right?  How much longer do you have?

  • Thanks Karen yeah its field season at my job (biologist) so I haven't had a lot of time on the computer. I still have forever left in school I hope to atleast get my masters but will probably keep going to get my PHD. Which will mean more money and a better job but it just seems so far away at this point.
  • I wanted to wish you luck working out your troubles.  I'm on a similar path as you and it sucks but keep your chin up.  I think that when you really love someone, it is always worth it to fight for your marriage and relationship. 
  • Thanks Witty I read your pp on whats going on with you and your husband and good luck to you as well. DH and I had a similar situation before we got married with the internet. But we worked it out and I am right there with you I truly believe that anything worth anything is worth fighting for especially for the one you love. Sometimes I wonder if the internet and cyber world out there is part of the reason why divorce rates are so high it just seems "easier" for someone to do all of those things online without us even knowing. Back in the old days when no internet or computer was around it wasn't as easily accessible or tempting I don't think. A lot of times some people dont even see talking to someone on the internet as "real" but I know from experience the hurt is real. I am sorry your going through that if you need someone to talk to or just vent outside of your family let me know.
  • I'm so happy it's Friday, too!!! We're having some friends over tomorrow, which I'm super excited about. I get to make a lemon meringue pie (yum!), and we're also having fajitas. I know, weird combo. LOL

    Hopefully your new job venture works out, and good luck with school! :)

  • There is nothing weird about fajitas and lemon meringue pie!  Sounds like my dream--may coconut instead :)

    This weekend, we may or may not go to the state fair.  I <3 the state fair, mainly for the roasted sweet corn on the cob.  Other than that, who knows what will happen.

    I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!

  • Nice to see you around here again!!  I wish you the best of luck and you will be in my t&p's while you iron out the wrinkles.  I agree w/ you and Witty; its worth fighting for and you will both make it through w/ flying colors, I just know it!

    I'm also in school and working a LOT so I can sympathize with your situation.  I've been going part time at nights and weekends for 4 years then took 2 years off so we could save for the wedding (I was getting burnt out working so much to pay for school and it was perfect timing) and this summer was my first time back.  I'm loving it so far, but the scheduling conflicts def suck.  H & I only get to see each other one whole day a week.  The rest of the week I'm working during the day and in class at night.  He is in school f/t all week then works full time in the evenings.  Its challenging and I feel lonely, but we know in the long run its what we both want.  I have faith that you can do it, too!  You just have to keep reminding yourself in the long run it will be worth it.  I have my days too but who doesn't?!  GL!!!
