I am thrilled that even though she just wants to be friends, I still had a very awesome Valentines dinner and evening with her. She is amazing and even though we will just be friends, she is going to be a friend that I cherish forever. It doesn't hurt either that she thinks I am amazing.

While the evening didn't work out as you had hoped, it is awesome that you two will be friends. I'm sure some other sweet, loving femme will find you just as amazing and this time, you two will set the world on fire! Best of wishes it happens soon!

So I found out last night that starting Mon I will be training my replacements at work (who will be taking over my job) for the next three weeks, still no word as to what my group will be doing or if the next three will be it. Sigh

Dang I was just rejected for a job I was told was mine and that I really wanted. I am so bummed...

on my mind ... Sagittarius ...

Thursday, Feb 16, 2012 -- You might believe that your time is running out, which can provoke you to take an unnecessary risk. You may be concerned that anything you do now is too little or too late. Although your fears could be unfounded, consciously moving in the right direction is a smart idea while the Moon is still in your sign. You would be wise to begin your new journey today and build on your current actions over the weeks ahead.

Friday, Feb 17, 2012 -- You might have to stand up to a powerful adversary today because your plan is contrary to the accepted one. Unfortunately, your friends or co-workers may be too quick to take the easy way out of a difficult situation. However, they don't understand how stubborn you can be now as you adhere to your values over convenience. Although your unwavering idealism is admirable, you can take things too far. Don't be so obstinate that you cannot see the goals you already have in common.

Sassy · 02-17-2012, 08:35 PM

Sagittarius: Saturday, Feb 18, 2012 -- You would like to step off the emotional roller-coaster today, but ending your ride prematurely isn't wise because your life is about to get a lot less difficult. Holding on through all the ups and downs earns you success now as things begin to smooth out. But if you miss all the excitement, just remind yourself that it's only a distraction. Your perseverance goes a long way to bringing you what you want.

.............. o.0 ................ That's interesting. I could stand for life to get less ... flaky? ... To attain some kind of clarity, feel as if I've some successes. Heck, I'd settle for some direction, seeing something stable approaching in my future. ... Somehow I don't think all of that will arrive on my doorstep in the morning. But hey! I'm willing to be open-minded and prepared. If opportunity knocks, I'll greet it in my fuzzy slippers and offer it coffee. *LOL*

Snuggling in for a movie!

sylvie · 02-17-2012, 09:01 PM

some dear friends & family of mine..
How much i've missed having special people in my life..
Having people to rely on, having them trust in me, conversations, laughs..
Fun memories, those little things that just make you smile..
the support & understanding, and just knowing someone is in your corner, rooting you on..

Today, when i attended the self-esteem Graduation of 9 courageous women, one of the 9 women turned out to be a very dear friend of mine.. Within my addiction, i pushed her away along with many other people in my life - seeing her, catching up and the frigging happiness of just knowing she understood.. After giving my speech, and i sat down, she shared something very powerful with the room about her own Recovery and then she let me know i was sent to her for a reason and it just really feels so good to be this far in my recovery and to be embracing my friendships and family again..

Once i work through this guilt, and find some forgiveness - and once i make amends, the peace of mind will be so welcomed & then i'll be taking huge strides forward on this journey of mine, i just know it... Lots of work ahead.. But, surrounded with people i love & who love me, powerful stuff.♥

Sleep. I'll go do that now.

You must have read my mind, or it's going around.

bright_arrow · 02-18-2012, 12:10 AM

My mother and sister have opted out of coming down this weekend for my dress fitting. My sister forgot to inform me of this - I just found out on Facebook when she mentioned extended family coming down to visit them.

I've gotta say, it hurts. Do they really not care, or do they think they're doing me a favor letting me coordinate everything? Who am I going to be able to count on the day of the wedding when I am then busy -getting- married?

signed,

That I am looking outside and the sun is shining. I have a window open and am feeling a cool/warm-ish breeze, and it is mid-February??!! Crazy weather.

JustLovelyJenn · 02-18-2012, 03:38 PM

There's a lot on my mind lately... a list... and every day I have to prioritize it... today... its sitting a little like this.

1. Clean the damn living room.
2. Have you read your book for lit yet?
3. Two days without kidlets
4. I wonder if his therapist called Seattle Childrens... maybe I should call too.
5. Clean the damn living room... even if you don't want to.
6. More reading... DON'T FORGET...
7. Did you put the batteries in the alarm on to little ones door yet?
8. psst.... Living room still isn't clean
9. V is coming over to have her hair cut tonight.
... yeah... it keeps going...

Kind of like I was driving with my window down and my sunroof open today. That's just crazy.

girl_dee · 02-18-2012, 07:12 PM

how cool it is that it's getting darker later!

sylvie · 02-18-2012, 08:09 PM

something that was read at the Graduation Ceremony yesterday, and i really liked it so thought i would share:

I am Me -
my declaration of self-esteem.

In all the world,
there is no one else exactly like me -
everything that comes out of me is authentically mine,
because I alone choose it - I own everything about me - my body, my feelings, my mouth, my voice, all my actions,
whether they be to others or to myself .

I own my fantasies, my dreams, my hopes, my fears -
I own all my triumphs and successes, all my failures and mistakes. Because I own all of me, I can become intimately acquainted with me - by so doing I can love me and be friendly with me in all my parts -
I know there are aspects about myself that puzzle me,
and other aspects that I do not know -
but as long as I am friendly and loving to myself,
I can courageously and hopefully look for solutions to the puzzles and for ways to find out more about me.

However I look and sound, whatever I say and do,
and whatever I think and feel at a given moment in time is authentically me - If later some parts of how I looked, sounded, thought and felt turned out to be unfitting, I can discard that which I feel is unfitting, keep the rest, and invent something new for that which I discarded -
I can see, hear, feel, think, say, and do.

I have the tools to survive, to be close to others, to be productive,
and to make sense and order out of the world of people and things outside of me -
I own me, and therefore I can engineer me -
I am me &

I AM OKAY

I am hosting an online FB auction for the Pretty and Plus Shop Auction page tomorrow/today (Sunday) from 3 to 5 PM EST (shameless plug)

this will help me raise money to purchase some much needed racks.

I am excited but truly I am terrified too! What if no one shows? What if I dont get bids? What if I spent hours and hours for no reason?
