Re: Confessions
I just recently took on a second job parttime, but all total I am working 68 hours a week. I am really being to regret my decision, but really need the money.
SO - teenager and hubby better step it up and help around the house.
Could it be completion of a goal that you worked really hard to achieve? I felt a lot of depression after the initial buzz of my half completion wore off. There were lots of mixed emotions about doing something I had always wanted to do, but never thought I could.
Maybe now you'll realize why co-dependency is bad for you. Don't you want to feel this good every day?
This isn't really a confession I don't think...well maybe it is.
I think this lay off has been harder on me than the divorce. At least with the divorce I could say after x date this will be done. With the lay off I know that after 12/31 I no longer have a job unless one of these companies I apply for before then hire me. I'm throwing my resume out like you'd throw spaghetti against a wall just to see what sticks lol
I'm looking forward to running into my lil boy toy (12 years younger than me) this weekend. Flirting with him makes me feel more alive than I have in a long time with my H. And I'm totally not ashamed over the age difference and that I'm still living with H for another 2 weeks.
I hear ya. My boy toy was 7 years younger. Good to look at & flirt with, but unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it) that's it.
Claire- I just noticed your siggy pic and it made my morning. Love it.
My confession: There are a few friends in my nursing program that are really cool but I am losing motivation to keep up with them since they are moving away next month. I know that once they are gone they won't try to really make an effort to hang out anymore either so I am trying not to feel bad about it.
Ha! Go for it! ...then report back
Thanks. Maybe that is it...seriously, I nEVER get that emotional ever over stupid stuff, and when it was actually happening I KNEW it was not normal, but couldn't stop it. I feel like I have no more running goals right now...I was going to step up my long runs and train for a marathon, but I dont think I want to devote that much time to running 25-30+ miles per week. I am fine with doing the long runs on the weekend, but I like to keep my runs during the week short, which I could not do with marathon training. I feel like I am in limbo!
When my DS was probably 3 or 4 I started the "Santa only brings 3 gifts" - It kind of goes along with that whole 3 wise men thing. He gets one kind of big gift and then 2 medium gifts. The ones from me are the board games, or clothes or books. Santa's gifts are always the cool ones...but it really limits the spending aspect of it.
What is your field? What areas (location) are you looking?
I was raised similar. 1 big gift from santa, and a couple small things as well as a stocking. I will be doing this as well.
When I was packing up some clothes last weekend BF discovered my personal naughty drawer. We had an impromptu swordfight with the vibrators.
I pushed a morning meeting to the afternoon so I could go see Breaking Dawn claiming I had an "away morning meeting"
