The treadmill is in the room now and ready to go except that I need a new adapter for the outlet cuz it is a 3-pronged plug. Ta-da! I got one today. No more excuses I guess. I will have to get on the treadmill now. Ü
I also fixed my car. Well, at least I found the problem and had someone else muscle it back together. Ü I got to school last Thursday and the engine chugged and sputtered and stalled. I had plenty of battery and was a little low on oil but it was 1020 pm and dark and somehow I got home and parked. It was weird getting a ride to work and home for a few days. I like the independence of having my own car and using it. So, I looked under the hood a few days later and was putting oil in when I noticed two parts that should be together and at this point weren't. Turns out that the engine intake separated from where it was supposed to be. Now it works and the check engine light even went out. The rest of the maintenance (oil and other misc filters) will be changed tomorrow. It is good that I didn't crack the engine block or something major like that. Ü
I spoke to one of my co-workers having a bad time with her 2 teens and feeling like she is right but no one else will see it her way and the spouse saying that they are teens and that is just how it is and everyone basically saying that she is the crazy one......today her son disobeyed his restriction on the computer and was IM-ing his friends. She said no computer and he says that he was just talking to friends and she said restriction is restriction and he says she is crazy. Wow if that was my mom when I was growing up, not only would I have a sore fanny but also a hand print across my face...so, my co-worker went in and took the cables from the computer and put them in her purse this morning. The teen was rather mad when he went to use the computer around noon. So, the gist of the whole thing is that she said "just once I would like my husband to put his arms around me and say that everything is okay." In my past experience, it seems that the correct answer is that you need to convince yourself that you are okay and then others will follow suit.
I find myself wishing that someone would help fix me. But then I remember Lifeskills and I am the only one who can fix me. Once that happens then others will be attracted to me. But ultimately I need to accept me for me. Though I get so lonely for human contact that isn't related to me. Ü It just seems so far away before I will be healed enough to meet a real prince and not just someone who dresses like one. Ü
TTFN!!!
