[2018] 302/365: Distractions

Scruffy and I had called it quits this past Friday. One day short of our two years and seven months. He was who I wanted to spend forever with but along the way fears and anxieties grew to the point where I needed to find and fix myself before I could be with him completely and it just wasn’t fair for him to wait for me. He has been my rock and confident for so long that I forget how to be. I’m thankful to have so many loving friends and family surround me as I find myself again and can only hope he’s getting the same treatment.

I’m thankful for co-workers, though they don’t know what is exactly going on, to invite me out to lunch. It was even paid for! And for cupcakes just showing up randomly at the office. It was all necessary distractions that I took in.

It wasn’t a day to diet but I haven’t eaten these past few days that eating bad was so good. I’m the opposite of many people. I don’t eat when I’m sad and the last time this happened was before Scruffy and I started dating. Funny enough he had hurt me then and I lost almost thirty pounds. Maybe I can see a positive in all of this, that I’ll be somewhat skinnier. But maybe me saying that out loud kind of jinxed it.

Have you tried these before? They’re a little funky but actually not too bad. And much more heathier than chips! They’re expensive though. $5 a bag at Costco.

Grandma made me go and buy the lotto so I did and I did not win the big money. Sigh. I won $12 though but still not enough to make up me spending $15.

[2018] 301/365: Sissy’s Birthday

Yesterday morning I found out we were going to celebrate Sissy’s birthday early at dinner tonight. We had a home cooked meal and all cut the cake. June bought ready made creme brulee. The only downfall was when we realized we had to carmelize it ourselves. We didn’t have a blow torch so we used our lighters.

[2018] 300/365: Rizzo and Jasmine

The clan came over tonight and my goodness. Jasmine’s Chinese is SO freaking good that she can carry a conversation. And she’s very clear with her words.

She’s still extremely afraid when the dogs get close but she will pet them on her terms. It’s funny seeing her turn around just to prevent the pups from touching her other body parts.

I was able to hold Katrina for a long while when she was awake. I wonder if she’ll be okay when she gets older or if she’ll sense stranger danger.

This morning Noah and I were waiting for someone to tell us something so we took pictures of each other. Same pose … What? Haha the finger against the phone is the same too.

[2018] 299/365: Lunch with Vicky

I rarely eat lunch on Fridays since I leave early but since Vicky asked I said yes so here we are enjoying our lunch together. We talked about so many different things. It’s nice to go one on one lunches with coworkers.

After work, I went straight to Scruffy’s. I took a nap, watched telly, and helped cook dinner. Texas Chili for the win.

I’m stuffed which is a good thing since I have to fast for my bloodwork tomorrow. I’m so sleepy so I hope I can stay awake for one more episode before I drive home.

[2018] 298/365: This Is Us

I’ve been on a This Is Us kick and I don’t want it to ever end.

Other than that nothing much has been going on today. I guess that’s a good thing.

Weekend is almost upon us and I’m excited to do a whole lot of nothing. I’m so pooped I’m ready to just relax.
