Day 74
1. Red bull girls showed up at my work and gave me free red bull. Which I left in the fridge at work of course. But heeeey….free red bull! 2. I woke up this morning to the moonlight pouring in. It was beautiful. 3. Speaking of the moon, I got to watch the full moon […]
Day 73
Today I was contacted, along with other people by a person I know with a request to share the worst of the drinking stories on an anonymous blog. I immediately said yes, because that’s what I do, but now my thoughts are going. I’m not particularly concerned about this person knowing the dark and dirty, […]
Day 72 (Edited)
Things I need to work on: 1. Self care. I’m not doing so great on that. I discovered that tonight when I went to my meeting and realized I hadn’t eaten in over 8 hours and was dehydrated and almost fell over in front of a hundred people I was chairing the meeting in front […]
Day 71
Exhaustion. Pure physical exhaustion. And I quit smoking. I pretty much finished unpacking and putting together the beds. I have the living room mostly arranged to my liking, and my lovely keyboard is set up. You know, the important things. I replaced the blinds that A broke our first day here (took two trips to […]
Day 70
Moving completed. 3 days of packing and moving and I just have unpacking and setting up beds to do. Also purchasing of furniture such as a kitchen table and dressers to do. But the worst of it is over. 1. I met one of my neighbors today, the guy who lives above me with his […]
Day 69
I still giggle internally like a preteen at the number 69. Ok. Enough of that. Parenting was hard today, but I feel like I was productive. I finished packing all my stuff from my sister’s place, with small children literally ripping the curtains down around me. Also bought more stuff for the new place. I’m […]
Day 68
Getting nervous about moving logistics. Ok, who am I kidding…ive been nervous since before I signed a lease but now I’m panicking a little. Mostly about how I’m going to transport my children while driving a uhaul. That has no backseat. 1. I felt pretty energized all day, right up til now. That was pretty […]
Day 67
Ever notice that people in general, have a whole lot of opinions on what you should or shouldn’t do? I had a conversation with my sister today that really brought this to my attention today. And she has the right to her opinions I guess. It really comes down to me, that what’s right for […]
Day 66
It’s been a busy weekend. I made good on the meditation, saw friends, packed things, watched live music and came close to falling off a dock. Also the state fair. The state fair is a pretty big deal in MN. It’s supposedly the third largest in the US, and there were over 200,000 people there […]
