Re: Good Thoughts & Confession Session Thursday!
good thoughts: for all of you! For alison's husband's interview today, for health and babies and jobs and money and peace of mind however you find it. Thinking good thoughts for all my nesties.
Confession: I hate litigation. Trying to explain to my therapist yesterday that I like the core skills of what I do but hate the context of litigation was interesting. But I do. I had a schedule set for the week and thanks to the glory of litigation, it's all shot to hell. First world problem, and am grateful to have work, but I need sleep too!
Confession: ugh I gained 6lbs back in the past 4 weeks. WTH !!!! But I got out and ran 2.1 (well most of it hehe) this morning so I'm getting back on track. One day at a time.
Confession/Open Letter really: Dear AF - enough already. post baby #2 and being off any birth control it's been a long 2 years of bad period. Enough already!!! But then I think of menopause and that scares me too. I'm surprised by my strength to keep it together every month, I can't imagine you ladies with severe migraines on top of it all. ARGH!

Confession: I have had a very short fuse lately, and have been yelling way more than I would like. I need to get a break from my kids and the stresses of my life, and at this point, I don't know how to go about doing that. I don't like where I am emotionally, and wonder if my annual funk is starting early this year. It doesn't usually happen until October for me. I'm dealing with migraines, and just plain hurt. I hope this stops, and that I can work something out to prevent this again... It sucks.
Good thoughts: To everyone, for whatever they want/need.
Confession: I am not thrilled about the work projects I have going on until the end of the year. I am already counting down to maternity leave.
Confession: I normally dislike the weekends DH has 2x per year when he goes out of town with his buddies. I hate being "stuck" at home as the single parent, as I've never gotten a whole weekend off. However, this time I've made plans with one of my friends (who has a DD that is my DS's age) and we are going to get ourselves a babysitter, go for massages (I've never had one before!) and go out to a nice, quiet, kid-less dinner. I am really looking forward to it!
