Deadlines, Goals, Countdowns....

Trying to set a date for moving to TN. I really do not want to go without a job, but the thought of lingering indefinitely is not appealing either. I am thinking I will leave NC sometime in March/April. The thought of a date is a major rollercoaster ride of emotion... so many what ifs, and what could bes. My mind is spinning. Layoff rumors abound at the workplace. Current popular rumor is Feb 10 which is next payday. Prior rumor was the end of the first quarter. That's one of the reasons I picked that time for myself.

Two Days Off

Two days off from work has been glorious. I have done next to nothing during this time. It has been nice. My sister is finally coming back to town. But that means the house will be going on the market soon. YIKES!!! Got to make some plans as no has responded to any of my applications for employment. The grape vine says that my current employer is going to do layoffs at the end of the first quarter. Oh to be laid off!! It would make my life so much less complicated. I could move and be paid to do so..... Corss everything.

Hoped for More

Oh the agony! I was hoping for "let's get together ASAP".
.
I got "Hopefully, we'll run into each other next time I'm in XXXX!" I wanted more...dammit.

Missed Opportunity?

I met a guy last weekend. There were definite sparks. That is when I wasn't sleeping (see previous post). So once again I am obsessing. I do this quite well in private, in my head...people around me have no clue. Guess you do now, but I digress. We did not exchange emails or numbers. He could get that info through his brother. But will he? Come on...someone obsess with me. Am I reaching here? I did send a "thank you" email to his brother hoping he would pass the email addy on if asked for.... uggh!! Did I miss out on something? How far do you go to let someone know you are interested without looking like a stalker? Where's the line?

Happy 5lbs Lighter New Year

Losing 5 lbs the hard.

1. Visit sick relatives. Do NOT hug.
2. Wash hands repeatedly.
3. Wait four days.
4. Think you have not gotten said virus.
5. Find out you are sadly mistaken on New Years Eve.
6. Puke your guts out for 8 hours.
7. Lie in bed for another 28 hours aching and feverish.
8. Still not want to really eat two days later.
9. Jump on scale and see the upside as 5 lbs vanish.
