It's Thursday!

Another week almost gone as I get into the weekend and may try and look for something to do Friday night and Saturday.  I think I'm in need to get out of the house.  Sitting here all day gets old.  I was offered a full time job, but knowing school starts next month and I'm full with classes I knew that I would be in over my head if I proceeded with it.  I've decided that I just want a part time job so I can focus more on classes and hurry up and knock my degree out of the way!  Funny how there are no part time jobs in this semi-podunk town.

Tomorrow is my court date in Lexington.  Should be "D" day.  "D" as in divorce.  Here, I'm basically been separated over a year and I'm so ready to end this marriage.  I think it's the one thing that is halting my current life and just to get this over with will be such a great emotional release.  I look back and yes, it's sad to lose another part of my life, however it was definitely a good decision I made.  I've always done for everyone else and pretended to be happy and content.  I now need to focus on me and I need to be happy for a change.  I'm the type of person who thinks of everyone else and in return I just put my wants and needs to the side.   I just ask myself "When will I be taken care of?"  I've never had the opportunity for someone to help me.  Not that I would ever ask for it, but it would be nice to have someone there who helps me and would like to see me succeed in life at many different things.  As of right now I have a person that does all of that and more.  This is the one time in my life that I'm content and very much in love with such a wonderful, caring person.  I'm very lucky.

Thanksgiving was good.  Sheldon and I went to his hometown and I got to meet his family and Birdie.  They all got to meet my Zoey.  Overall, it was a great trip.  I didn't eat too much which is great, plus on a good note I've lost about 5-6 pounds.  For Christmas we are going to Asheville, NC and staying for three nights.   Will be lots of fun going to the Biltmore, tubing, hiking, and going into the mountains.  I adore the mountains.  Just a great feeling of peace that comes over me.   Plus, it's awesome that we both are into traveling and photography so we have lots of fun together.  It's just great knowing that anything will go b/c we share alot of the same interests.  Speaking of traveling, Sheldon has to take two weeks of vacay before June so we have decided to do a two week vacation to the Western US.  We are wanting to hit Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam, Yellowstone National Park, Glacier National Park, etc.  Probably end up in Los Angeles and fly back.  A mini cross country road trip.  I'm looking up stuff and everything will be booked by mid-March.  Yay!!! 

Zoey needs to go out.  'Til next time!
