What Did You Do For You Today???

I just couldn't take the abuse anymore. Remind yourself of the bad times when are thinking about going back into a bad situation, ok?

LoL! Thank you Angela!! I will do the same... Stand up for ourselves and what we deserve and believe in! I just want to love freely... Sometimes that is easier to do when I'm not worrying about the one I love not accepting it :)

Thank you, Thank you soooo much!!! :tup:
 
Last night I went back to the monthly carers support group. What a lovely reception I got from them, they had missed me and wondered how I was doing. I have not been for quite a few months, but decided it was time to get back in touch with them, as there is no therapy available for carers who just need support not treatment. :tdown:

Today I am going to meet another member of the forum. A bit of retail therapy and a well deserved slice of chocolate cake I promised her a few weeks back.

Going to look for a Samurai figurine for hubby. To symbolize his growth and hopefully new found strength.
 
I pulled out a ham and got the fixings for split pea soup, ham and corn salad... I'm cooking tonight to share with friends and for the weekend... and I've got an accupressure treatment in an hour.--- part of that treatment is a facial this time.
 
Rough weekend... Lots of work...
But, turned down the offer of one of my guy friends coming to visit which in the past would lead to a one night stand, explaining that that would not benefit this mission I am to improve the quality of my life!
Then went out with my girlfriends dancing on Saturday - got asked out to dinner sometime this week and have given myself permission to "date". It seems soon but I'm not going to deny myself new opportunities because of a broken heart...
One step at a time, though... This round/road of my life is going to be MORE about ME!!
 
Had three weeks of uncertainty at work over the way i was spoken to infront of colleagues, I made a complaint to my manager & today the person made an attempt at apologizing. She spent most of the time saying she would never say anything (not much!) to upset anyone so it must have been because i was doing too much or was tired, at no point did she actually say 'i'm sorry' & i maybe old fashioned but i think i deserve that.

So, when she tried to make excuses I stood up for myself, telling her i was upset & would not tolerate it happening again. I shook like a leaf afterwards but felt a million times better, i would usually say 'oh thats ok, i understand' & then tell myself off for saying it. I think my colleague & i have a better understanding of each other now!!

(((HUGS))), you did/do deserve an apology. IMHO, she was probably more sorry to have been hauled up on a complaint rather than what she said to you.

Well done for facing her and telling her that you would not tolerate it. I totally understand the shaking afterwards, I was the same when I confronted the truck driver who almost hit me last week. Shaking and upset but boy did I feel better for it.

Now do something nice for yourself.
