View Article  Day 2
On my second morning of being SAHM, I am cooking my kids waffles and sipping on coffee. Nowhere to rush off too, no yelling because Ian has misplaced his shoes AGAIN and we have to leave in 5 minutes so I can make it to a court hearing... In short, it is bliss.

There have been some annoyances: Terminx calling while I was at the zoo asking where I was because we were scheduled to have our insulation done today (turns out the woman in the corporate office figured since I was done with work they could come "any time" after the 28th and I would be here), then I get a letter that the hospital has put me into collections for missing one payment since Roo's birth. Really? But, all these things would have happened with me working anyway, so it was nice that I didn't have to also worry about my job on top of it all!

I've been thinking about my co-worker a lot, and I've come to the realization that I just don't chose care. It's my own fault that I fell into thinking she was a friend again, so in essence I've been angry at myself. That stops today, because I can't really fault myself for wanting to see the good in people versus the bad. At this point I can chose to let her actions hurt me, or I can recognize the nasty side of her personality and chose to never talk to her again. Since I know the people who need to know and the people whose opinions really matter think highly of me despite what she's said and, in essence, disbelieve what she's said, it isn't worth my energy to question it.

I'm looking forward to a day at the Aquarium with my friend and her kids. It's going to be a great day!

I am so happy to be up and running again! I've missed my blogging outlet, that's for sure. I had to cut myself off for a month to finish school, quit my job, and start job searching again... A lot can happen in a month!

So much to catch up on, but I'll just say that I graduated with a 95% for a GPA, which was my goal.

My last day of work was yesterday, and I found a a whole bunch of less-than-charming information about a coworker of mine. She's the one I had issues with when I first started, but I didn't realize what a snake she truly was until yesterday. She obviously has a charred, black heart, and a soul that is destined for vile payback. I was going to lay it all out for my other co-workers who I met up with last night, but I decided not to. I have come a long way from gossip and the desire to create drama, so I didn't want to do something out of anger versus "the right reason." I made one comment along the lines of, "I found out that people on our Team we thought we could trust, we can't," and left it at that. Considering I was hanging out with 2 of the 3 people from our 4-person Team, I think they're bright enough to figure out what and who I meant. If they chose to continue to trust her, that's their problem. They'll figure it out, because someone with such an ugly purpose and disgusting way of living their life is destined for failure. I can only hope that I get to hear about it when it happens! On the flip side of that, I found out that a few of her less desirable character traits have not gone unnoticed by others who are higher up, and that makes me happy.
