I'm Back!
I know, I know. I disappeared for a long time there. Lots of things have happened since my last post in July. Then I was struggling with R being out of town. so let Me kind of do a recap of what has happened since then.
August & September:
Dead.... that was how work was I sat around doing nothing much for 2 months
Relationship.... Strong! we saw each other all of the time and had way too may family (his) obligations to meet.
Weight loss... HA what weight loss?!
After all the apartment hoopla (leaking roof, coming into my apartment when I'm not home) I decided to move and find a cute condo closer to work and closer to R. R's best friend lets me take over his condo as he is looking for a house.
October:
I GOT ENGAGED! yes you read that right he popped the question on our 5 month anniversary at the same restaurant that we went to our first date at. I find a dress I love and start looking at reception halls.
Life continues to be hectic with family obligations. And work starts to pick up.
November:
I took the FIL's to see the garden and reception hall I wanted and had shown R. Work is now crazy and I start working from 7am to 6-7pm. And the family obligations continue.
December:
Work is kicking my ass and I continue to work crazy hours and almost every weekend. We book the reception hall and I am thinking about one hundred other wedding things in any free moment of the day.
AND of course there are those family obligations. Which I now can't handle any more and R and I have a huge fight about what is happening for the Xmas and new years holidays. He tells me that we can do one thing and then goes along with the opposite thing that his family wants to do. After an huge sit down we solve this issue and the family obligations that I have to attend lowers dramatically.
January:
Well the month starts out ok then wham I come down with the flu and when i go back to work after 2 days of hurling I am told the company, because of it's money issues can no longer afford my salary and they are sorry but they will have to let me go. Effective immediately.
So here I sit, back because now my very busy work life has come to a screeching halt and I need something to keep me from going off the deep end. I know that this was for the best, since the boss was really hating me lately for unknown reasons. He had started tormenting me in the way I had seen him do to countless others that he suddenly, overnight decided to hate.
Now I will update my resume and start calling a ton of places...but I think I will take a few days off first to get over this flu and figure out what I want to do. I can't take long at it though since my savings is nothing and unemployment won't cover my bills. But at least till next week when I will hit the pavement hard.
