Unearned Success
I’ve been weighing myself every day. I know, I know. You’re not supposed to do that. I will quit. I promise. I can quit anytime I want. Actually, it’s been (for the most part) really encouraging. I’ve lost 6 pounds this week, a small loss each day, except for one – can’t quite figure out …
Missing
I’ve been suffering from loneliness a lot lately. It’s not because the children are gone for the summer – it’s not a general loneliness. It’s a very specific type. I miss having someone to love. I miss being loved. I miss not having someone to miss. I miss having someone look at me so tenderly. …
Dear Loved Ones
It really blows that I have to post it, but I’d like this out there. Just in case. So, my stalker, after nine long months, is still stalking me. I was told that if I made no contact for 3 months, he would lose interest. I can’t seem to shake this psycho. Something in him …
Feeling Closer
This week has been such a flourish of busy-ness! I’m so exhausted! I’m busy working overtime at my office job, busy mowing the lawn, busy running errands, preparing foods, and all of the other things which fill a woman’s day. And busy trying to squeeze in time to make my dreams come true. I’ve been …
Priorities
So, for those of you who don’t know, I’m a member of a dating website. As a fat woman, I my inbox isn’t filled daily with men dying to meet me. I do have a few men who contact me, though. Old men who are seeking a younger woman, smokers who can’t seem to find …
Day 1 (Again)
I’ve had a number of things hindering me from reaching my goals, lately. What I’ve realized lately is that it all boils down to routine. If I can’t get into a routine I can stick to, I’m going to give up. Between working overtime at one job and working my other job while taking care …
Half Way to Christmas!
I just want to make sure that you all know that we are half way to Christmas today. I’m this uber-Christmas freak, but I’m not even Christian. Go figure. I mentioned it to my daughter, and we got to talking about favorite memories and the things she has appreciated over the years that I’ve done …
Another New Beginning
Due to circumstances, my children (who were due to go to their father’s house for the summer last Wednesday) are leaving today. I always feel horrible saying this, but I’m so excited! There’s even more excitement today than there has been in past years. Usually, it’s just the excitement of being kid-free for a couple …
Not Date-able and Not My Fault
In my current state, I am undate-able. Unfortunately, it’s not my fault. Why am I undate-able? Is it because I am so overweight? Is it because I am a single mother of two teenagers? Is it because I am so odd – my unusual eating habits, my pickiness in partners, my lack of TV watching? …
SO Disappointed!
Have you ever had a Facebook Friend unfriend you? To my knowledge, I’ve had it happen 4 times: twice were teenagers who didn’t like me calling them out on their drug use, etc, another was a childhood friend and the last was a blood relative. Truthfully, I have no idea why the last two unfriended me. …
