    I'm better as a lurker any way...

    I haven't been very inspired to post recently (as I'm sure you can tell). Plus my work load has just about tripled. To say that I'm busy is an understatement. I'm going to take a little break from posting for a while. Just until I feel inspired again and/or when work slows down. Don't worry though, I'll still be checking in on everyone's blogs.
     
    Thanks,

    What helps you get over a bad week?

    A fantastic Saturday!!!
     
    Yes, I was having a hard week last week. Yes, everything I wrote was true. This weekend however was great and I feel refreshed and ready to tackle this week ahead of me. Thank you for all of your comments. It’s nice to know that when you’re feeling that bad that others have felt that way before too.
     
    But this post is about the great weekend (especially Saturday) that I had. Friday night I went out to dinner with My Prince and The Royal Family. It wasn’t the number one thing I wanted to do, but it was nice to have the night off from cooking dinner. My Prince and I had also decided to go to the movies afterwards. Unfortunately, we ended up staying at the restaurant too late and I told My Prince that we’d better call it night. So, we went home and cuddled a little bit before heading off to bed.
     
    Then Saturday morning we woke up relatively early and decided that we’d go grab some breakfast and go out to catch the movie we wanted to see. But the movie theater foiled our plans by having a late afternoon showing of the movie while we were up and ready to go in the morning. However, all was not lost, we did a few things around the house, made lunch, and then went out to see the movie. We saw Friday the 13th. It was pretty good. A little too much nudity for my liking but overall I think they did a good job with the remake. After the movie we went back home and talked and cuddled a lot. Then we went out and grabbed a Little Caesar’s Pizza and some crazy bread and took it home for dinner. We watched two Harry Potter movies and then went to bed. It was SO nice just to kick back relax and have some fun.
     
    I told My Prince that since we had a “date day” on Saturday that we’d wake up early on Sunday and get some work done around the house. We started off pretty good but then he had to go help The Queen pick up and move a stereo that he wanted. So, I got quite a few things done around the house while he was gone.
     
    Overall this weekend was pretty awesome and just want the doctor ordered. I’ve been feeling like all I’ve been doing is working. I work at my job and then would go home and work on the house. It was becoming too much and I think I just finally cracked. Needless to say, this weekend really helped bring me back. I guess I just needed to fit in some fun after not having any for so long.
     
    Here’s to a better week ahead!

    Have You Ever?

    Have you ever….

     

    Ø      Gotten anxiety attacks in the middle of the workday for a week?

    Ø      Went into the private handicap bathroom that was separate from the ladies’ room so you wouldn’t have to interact with other people?

    Ø      Had to mentally push yourself into working instead of reading blogs all day?

    Ø      Put on a “mask” so that no one around you realized your hurt and pain? All they see is a happy person who has no problems?

    Ø      Decided that whenever anyone asked you how you were you’d now and forever respond with “ok”?

    Ø      Had a normal conversation with someone and then walked to the bathroom just to stare into space waiting for the hurt to go away?

    Ø      Not wanted to go home?

    Ø      Not felt loved?

    Ø      Felt too emotionally/mentally exhausted to go on?

    Ø      Loved someone more than you felt they loved you?

    • Had a constant need to be comforted from the harshness of the world?

     

    I have.

    So much for “normal”

    Last week was a really exhausting week for me. Work was just so demanding that I felt like I was barely keeping my head above the water. By Friday I was D.O.N.E. I walked around the office telling everyone that too.
     
    I couldn’t wait for the day to be over and start the weekend. Little did I know what the weekend had in store for me. Friday I had to push myself into doing my evening workout and push myself even harder to actually go and make dinner. I told My Prince that if I were living alone that I would have come home, made a PB&J sandwich, and then would’ve gone to bed. I was burnt out!
     
    So we ate the dinner I prepared and finished the night watching the hockey game. I fell asleep before the game was over and woke up later that night and transferred myself to bed.
     
    Then Saturday came and all hell broke loose at home.
     
    My Prince and I have been discussing the cost of a wedding. We have slightly different views over what kind of a wedding and reception we should have. This broke open a can of worms that I don’t have enough time to even attempt to explain. We’ll just sum it up by saying that My Prince and I have yet to agree on this subject, as well as the fact that I’ve given up the pursuit of some of my dreams for My Prince. That being said, I felt like he was trying to get me to give up this one last dream and it was the straw that broke the camel’s back.
     
    We started to argue, feelings were hurt, and I left. I had my Mom come over and pick me up and take me back to her house. I was crying my eyes out. I felt like my heart was breaking in two.

    Saturday was a very tough day.
     
    Without going into details, My Prince and I have discussed this further once tempers were down and tears had dried up. We understand each other but have not come to a resolution.
     
    My heart is still on the mend.
     
    I can sum up the weekend in two words: It sucked.
     
    Some times I think “Normal” will never find me.
