I really have to get used to keeping up with this...gonna have to get myself into the habit of writing faithfully, mostly for myself so that I can track my progress (if any) throughout this new phase. I'm bummed I didn't get to check out Scot Sax at The Grape Room Saturday night, but I ran out of steam, man. What the...? I'm not old (at least I don't think I am!). Anyway, Sunday was nicer than I thought it would be (bridal shower...almost 4 hours...was really not looking foward to it...hate those things...won't subject my friends or family to one if I EVER get married...). However, I was sitting with Kieran, Mom, and the 'friends' and we laughed our asses off! They are really, really funny and great girls. Hung with a new friend afterwards for a while...we're really hitting it off and I much enjoy her company. Didn't do much else...went into hybernation mode. I really dislike the cold/early dark days...it will be a challenge for me to stay cheery and productive, but life is about overcoming challenges, right?
It's my 2nd 'unemployed' Monday, and I'm still feeling pretty flippin' excited about it. Hung out with Mom & Kieran at the outlets (off of 422) for a few hours and even managed to find 3 stylin' pairs of shoes for under $40 (I've got the shopping/deal-finding gene from Terri!). Don't worry folks, I bought a Christmas present as well. Got to see Dad before we went, which was a really nice surprise.
I've been thinking about the conversation I'm going to have to have with him about where I'm at and why I'm not scrambling to find another job right away. I'm worried because I love him and respect him so, so much and I don't want him to be disappointed in me (I've managed enough of that throughout my lifetime). But I really want to stick to my guns this time and follow my gut/heart.
I have a couple of very dear friends that are going through tough times, so I hope that this free time will allow me to really be there for them...I don't like when my friends hurt...it hurts my heart.
Ok, off to St. Johns...chat with you soon. :-) Kat
