Day to Day Update...

Goodness…I was doing quite well at posting on a regular basis…until lately. I have a certain subject that I plan on writing about later. I’m trying to collect my thoughts and explore a little bit more. It will be on selfishness. That is so huge with me…I believe, that in itself is selfish! Anyway, I’ve always known I was selfish, but for the past few months I’ve been really focusing on the issue. My own selfishness goes much deeper than I had originally thought…scary!!


Anyway, an update on my day-to-day:


Scott got a job with a pool company. Yea! It’s a full time job which will keep him extremely busy. We still have the company we started, but since acquiring customers has been a slow process, we had to add a full time job on top of that. Hopefully, the economy will be better next spring and we’ll be able to add a bunch more customers, so he can move onto our company full time. I have been very proud of him…he’s kept himself quite busy with all our extra jobs.


I am still working at my job…boring! My work is so boring and unfulfilling…but it’s a pay check. I’m trying to avoid the “issue people” at work…I think they intentionally target me to see if I’ll break. I will not get into all the drama at work…I really don’t care enough too!


October is fast approaching and it will be time for a month packed full of birthdays and anniversaries! I’ll be broke by the end of the month, in other words! Anyway, I will enjoy the celebrations!


Medical-wise: went to the doctor again for more tests…hopefully I’ll hear better results. Tests should come back tomorrow! I’m still not sleeping! Yikes! I’ve had insomnia throughout my life…so, I’m used to it. Not that it’s okay, but it’s the least of my issues.


Good news though…mom has offered to help me get a reduction! I’m a little scared and very excited. I will be making my appointment with the plastic surgeon soon to get my request to the insurance company so they’ll hopefully approve me. It will be so different…I’m used to having what I have…but, I think I’ll be happy with a little less! I’m trying to get Scott used to the idea!


I went to a funeral Saturday of a co-worker from my last job. I haven’t seen the lady in about 5 years, but I enjoyed the talks we used to have. To hear of her passing was shocking, but I knew she had been battling with certain issues. I debated on whether to go to the funeral or not, I’m glad I did. It’s strange how you can work with someone for so long and really not know who they are once they leave the office. The funeral also made me reflect on things in my own life…things I take for granted. One issue heavily on my mind was what I may be taking for granted, and also that I don’t want to be taken for granted. When I spoke to Scott after I got home, he said I was being “sappy”! I guess I was. But, it was so heartbreaking to hear family member after family member telling their mother, aunt, grandmother, etc. how they felt about her…when only her body was present. I don’t know if she was told everything prior to her death, but I always worry about leaving things unsaid. I think everyone takes some part of their loved ones for granted. A death of someone you know is tough, but it’s always a good time reflect and make some observations and improvements in your own life.

Well, I will start working on the selfishness entry and post later this week...hopefully!
