On separation and divorce- so far

Of course I miss my cat! If you've ever been a pet person, you get it. If not...keep it to yourself! I don't have kids of my own to love, I have pets, got it?

I also miss other things. My friends- a given. But, I am feeling incredibly supported by those same friends and my family- you guys rock!!- and other friends, friends of friends, random people on the street...

6 pm couch redux

Jeans and a T-shirt this time. Eh, it is the most comfortable place to sit and type so here I am again.

Never fear (Mom!,) I did indeed get up today. Bet you thought I wouldn't after this morning's post! I even got showered, dressed, went for a walk, picked up the neighbor's mail, AND went out to return a Redbox flick and get dinner at Wegman's... have I mentioned how much I love Wegmans? And Redbox?
Seriously, I'm not really a total slacker. Every other day this week I've been up early; dressed, caffeinated, and either calling about, researching, or interviewing for jobs AND at the same time trying to find a rental house. Just 'cause I'm not working doesn't mean I can't have Saturday off too!

Beginning Again

12/1/2012 10:10 AM So, here I am, sitting in my pajamas on my parent's couch under a down comforter, wearing fuzzy socks, and having no inclination to get dressed this morning. Age 36. No job, no house, nearly no cash. WOW.

This is NOT where I thought I'd be at this age when I was rather naively planning the rest of my life at some point in the far distant past! Although, in my defense, I'm pretty sure those plans were made a LONG time before I had any idea what I wanted out of my life! As I've recently come to realize, everything I thought I wanted when I was 25 was not actually what I really wanted.
