Just some rambles.
1. I ate toast for lunch and it is staying down. Here's hoping this is a recurring trend.
2. Had lunch with my family yesterday, and it is amazing how advanced DD is compared to my niece (10 months older than DD). Daycare and regular social interaction makes a world of difference, I don't care what any SAHM says.
3. I have my fingers crossed that this latest round of divorce negotiations is the last and we can finalize everything this week. If I can file on Friday, I will be a happy, happy girl.
4. H's BFF and his wife are coming out in November. They called me yesterday to ask me to go out with them while they are in town. When I asked about xH going, too, they said, "We'd rather just meet him for breakfast or something." Ha! Good to know they are truly good, fun people.
5. Coirker, whose check is already being garnished (partially) by her student loan company, now has a tax lien against her wages (present and future). Looks like she won't be paid for at least two months based on the IRS calculations and levy. ::smdh:: Have people never heard of a payment plan?
6. xH will have DD from Weds. night until Monday morning. I am stoked about having so much free time, but bummed b/c there's not too many people to do things with on a family-friendly holiday weekend. Lover's bday is on Saturday, so I'm hoping he stops by so we can celebrate.
7. My wee baby sister (22 y.o.) is engaged. They are having a wedding they can afford (tiny, at home, potluck homemade cake style), probably by the end of this year. Both she and her FI (29 y.o.) still live and home and work part time at Borders. They are applying for real jobs, but who knows where that will take them. Seems kind of premature to me, but best of luck to them. They have been dating since 2006 or 2007, but I still think she is young and they are both immature. Of course, I keep my feelings to myself b/c I'm a mildly on-edge divorcee and who wants my turrible marital advice? At least I have a reason to go home and celebrate with them.
8. My dad and his wife are constantly on the rocks. IDK what she was thinking marrying a guy whose divorce was *just* finalized and still has so many loose ends with his ex-wife (financial, realty, kids, etc.). Good luck to them, too, I guess.
8a. Dad told his new wife that he never worries about me or calls me because I'm the "smart, responsible one." That's nice and all, but that was kind of a slap in the face, too.
9. I loved sleeping alone for the first few months. Now I hate it. The last week I've slept on the couch most nights so I'm not sleeping in such a big, empty bed. And my couch is hella uncomfortable for sleeping. I think I'm investing in a body pillow on my way home. Mama Leg needs some sleep.
10. Muah!
