First day of the rest of my life?

Cheesy title, but right now cheese sounds pretty good...I was just let go. From my job. I had been there for four years...and my position suddenly needed different skills than the one I have.

Shocked.

But man is my dog going to be excited!

Once a week

Once a week, everyone in the house does a chore above and beyond regular weekly tidying. When it is done, for a couple of hours my house is so clean I just want to roll around on the floor and squeal.

My life is apparently not that exciting...

Happy doggy

I am totally cheating out on my picture a week thing. I have a trillion of these...happy doggy, going to the park.

Yay!

Sun Run Sunday

With much nervousness I approached my first Sun Run yesterday.

Turns out I am an okay runner, and I finished at 1 hour 3 minutes!!!

Can't wait till next year!

And since this has a picture too, I am totally counting it on the "Picture a week" thing.

Heck yah!

Picture of the Week!

Well, here is my first post in this picture series...I am doing this with Swell, check her blog out!

Here I am (well, my feet) ready for a run! 10k today, maybe 11 if I decide on the extra loop.

I think I am slowly melting

Well, not melting exactly, but my mind feels like it is dissolving out of my body.

Is this what happens with too much stress? Cortisol is actually an acid and it eats you from the inside out?

I am crazy. Well, I feel crazy anyways.

And outside it is still raining...

Exes

So I was just told by my eldest that "Dad's in town and will be living just a half hour away."

What?

WHAT?

I would be lying if I said I was at all happy about this development. We left all that violence and garbage behind when we left him and now he is going to be one town over?

Fuck my life.

Another day

I need to get out of my funk. I need to keep thinking positively and realize that hard times don't last forever.

It has been...difficult lately. I have zero motivation to do things that I enjoy, unless that includes hermitting. Now, I know the symptoms of depression and when my mind starts with its whole "let's think the worst" thing.

Good thing I am still seeing my doctor about this.

Another good thing is that my kid is turning human again...now that has been a long time coming.

Thumbs up for hope!

...my goodness that is sickening.
