Life is Good!

It is amazing how a couple of weeks can change my outlook on life. Not really a surprise, but still absolutely wonderful. Writing usually helps me to get a handle on my emotions and what I found was I felt like I was wandering. I talked to the preacher about it and she really helped me to feel better and direct my thoughts/actions.

My relationship with the big G is much better. I’ve been reading the bible more and spending more time in reflection and prayer. I still haven’t found a church but for some reason, I’m feeling much better about it.

I met the new boss at work. He is a good guy – very cute. I can’t believe I’ve gone my whole career without having good looking bosses/associates and wham!  In this job – an exceptionally good looking co-worker and a hot boss….all within a 4 month period of time. LOL. He seems quite down to earth and reasonable…which is what I really need in a boss. He is located in another state – which is nice….although, he calls me at ridiculous times to talk about work. Oh well. Can’t have everything.

I’m dating this guy…I shouldn’t jinx it. But will just say, he is absolutely adorable. And, he is very attentive and good to me. We’ll see.

Boo seems to be hanging in there and doing well. Yay!

Life is good!

Lately

I haven't had much time for reflecting or writing lately.  Six months into the new job and I am finally starting to feel like I can keep my head above water.  Finally not just fire fighting...although, still not totally doing everything i think the job truly entails.  It isn't 2nd nature for me, so I have to keep a list in front of me at all times and constantly refer back to what I should be doing.   The early morning and evening meetings kill me, too.  We have one at 9:30 p.m. that I have blown off the last few weeks because it is just plain annoying, should not need me and I don't want to either stop my plans or interupt my relaxation for the meeting.  One of these days, that might bite me in the ass, though.

Everything is going smoothly with Boo.  There are days when my heart breaks because of her "mentor teacher" issues.  But I have to remind myself I can't fix the world for her...despite all my efforts to.  I just hope she sticks with teaching because I know she loves the kids and will be a fabulous influence on their little minds and hearts.

My very good friend, M&M is going through some really rough times lately.  He has been an absolutely lousy friend to all his friends.  A couple of our mutual friends have no desire to deal with him because of it.  I have years of history with him where he has been my friend, confident, goof ball companion, giver of (usually bad) advice, drinking buddy, shopping partner, etc.  So, of course, I'm sticking by him.  Hope I don't get burnt by it.  Men have proven to be lousy at giving my trust to.

Well, I leave for a long weekend soon...yay!  I totally need this time away.  I'm hoping it will give me the rest I need to enter the crazy holiday season.  I already have conflicting invites for Halloween and Turkey day.  Dang!  How does this happen???  LOL. 

I will try to be better at this writing thing....hahahahahah.........
