Back on Track

I must have missed the original update to your family, but wow Patty, lots of changes on your horizon! Good luck with the job offers, they sound fantastic, and wishing you the best on a smooth transition along the way!
Hugs,

Thanks sweetie!

OK- so no check in?
Hmmm...we'll have to send out a search party if you don't keep posting!

It's nice to be missed.

*T2 dust the furniture and runs the sweeper*

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! The place really gets messy when I don't keep it up.

Hope you're on your way to my place next! :D :D

OHD!!! You can have him when I'm done with him. lol

Oh my God that is so sexy!!

HEY!!! No sex in my diary when I'm not around. Ok, so maybe there isn't any when I'm around either, but, well never mind.
 
Ok, since you opened this can of worms....There definintely is a direct correlation between vacuuming time, and sexy time. If I clean the house, 7/10 times it will be rewards by special treats.

My wife likes it when our house is clean too. But it doesn't turn her on like it does my mistress.

OK - so I really wasn't expecting THAT!
LMAO!
 
hehe, cleanliness is my Isildur's Bane, especially in all the trucks I drove - almost obsessive with keeping that rig shined up.

All I can say is ladies get me scheduled now before the holiday rush is upon us :D
 
Yesterday I was supposed to go on sales calls to test the water with this one position, see if I'll like it. It was cancelled at the last minute. I felt a little bummed out about it, but it sort of pushed me further in the direction of the more stable, known position (not 100% but fingers crossed).

Went shopping for some new shirts yesterday. Had a store credit for around $26. Bought four shirts and only went over by $5. Now that's cheap. Oh well, I'll take it.

Ate sushi for lunch. Just had it for the first time in the past two months, and have been back quite a few times. Love it!

Had the friend I hired come over for a couple of hours after she got off work to help me with some business work that needed to get done.

Went to a workshop last night called Stop the Conflict from 6-10pm with the husb ( -or- )

Description from the website:

"For people in divorce and for those who want to save their marriage -
This 4-hour program is about ending conflict and healing your relationship, one human being to another. You will discover the nature of love and the underlying conditions that push love away. You will learn why your relationships and your life are the way they are and how you can have them be great.

This life changing program is about getting your power back. You will learn how to end conflict, heal hurt, remove upsets, stop arguing, resolve issues, restore communication, forgive, gain cooperation, and if necessary, part as friends. The insights you gain will change all your relationships, both present and future."

Most of what he said he had already covered in 2 private sessions with us in the past week or so. But it reinforced what we'd learned, and I learned a couple of new things last night, like why I felt the need to be right all the time!

This guy is amazing. He helped me let go of some serious issues in a quick and healing manner. I have so much peace now. It's not perfection, but wow it's a big change.

Here is his website:

For healing ourselves and for dealing with all relationships - family, business, spouse - I'm certain anyone visiting this site will get something out of it. There's lots of free articles there. Some of my favs:

Well, I like all the articles. But one is Accept Responsibility ()

Husband spent first night away in his new apartment last night.

Read to the girls this morning before school. Had a tickle fight. Watched part of The Sound of Music.

Went running at Memorial Park: 5k, 3.1mi, 31:56

Now I'm sitting here typing, ready to take a shower and eat something for lunch. Wish I hadn't had sushi yesterday, could have some more today....

Husband is meeting the kids after school and taking them for the night.

Am meeting a girlfriend at a wine bar tonight called The Tasting Room.

Am up 1/2 lb from my lowest weight, which is actually not bad at all considering that was when my husb and I "broke up" and I wasn't eating much for days and hence the dropped weight. Now that I'm back on my feed (tehe I like that phrase), I don't think that is too bad.

TTFN. Love to all!

Thanks Tammy, I came by to see you at your diary too.

M2M we are trying to be grown up (finally!) for our children's sake. I just know that we'll become better people and we already experiencing so much more peace. That really is my word for it.

PEACE :cool:
 
Hey Patty! Just stopping by to say hello...I haven't been around much these days, and it sounds like there are a lot of changes going on for you.

Good luck with the job search and everything else - we're all rooting for you.

A woman I know sent me an email with this list of funnies when she heard about my separation (our husbs are friends). Well at least we can laugh at ourselves:

"i'm not sure that either one of those yae-whos knows the secret of marriage"
