June 1 closing date!

For all the new folks, Welcome!!!!  I'm purchasing a short sale townhouse across from the college where I work. The price 30k, and it will save me gas, car wear and tear, nearly 2 hours a day commute. It's going to be a little strange to feel so indulgent but I can afford, I'm keeping my "country house" and will be in the city during the week. Also who knows what else I will be doing in the future? I'm going to practice asking my friends for help so that I can pull up carpet, put in laminate wood floors, paint and etc. It's only sorta freaking me out. I'm so not use to making decisions for me without being concerned about anyone else's needs. I know that I've kept my needs small as a way to try and manage my unmet needs, yikes (just realizing this). You know that connection to needs, apparent I've done something to short circuit them...if you don't have needs, when people don't ever meet them, you'll still be okay. Ugh, something to look at. This is why I need to take care of myself without any restrictions put on me by others or by me. I need to figure out how to break that short circuit and connect with my needs again.

Today is the last day at one of my jobs, I have my next last day at the other on 1/21. I'll be going full time at the last one starting on 1/17. This is good in many ways, experience, income and I'll be driving to one location and having "normal" hours. The not so good part of it, is that it comes to an end in May. I've been told that they may need someone for summer hours too but I have never been one to count my eggs before their hatched. With this, I'll be able to have regular meals with the boy and likely be able to launch a regular walking routine (perhaps twice a day). I should try and get a mp3 player that I can use to download audiobooks from my library to listen to. My goal would be to walk during lunch as well as after I get home.

Saying goodbye to one of my coworkers was kinda weird. I really enjoyed getting to know DR. I sure hope that I'll be able to stay in touch with her. She's pretty amazing. It's always weird to say good bye to folks and part of me is glad to move on and the other part is not.

I don't have to work tomorrow or Monday (MLK day). The boy is going to a church retreat this weekend. P and I may go dancing on Saturday night, or there's a group of people getting together for chili and games. My friends E and R may be going to chili which would make it fun but one of the hosts, to me seems a little prickly towards me. Am I being too sensitive? Friday is open as well as most of Sunday and Monday. P's got to work on Sunday but we'll be able to go see the L word. I've really gotten used to having P around, it's no fun that she is working 12 hr days. I've got lots of laundry and there's always cleaning to do. I picked up a few movies to work on it. I've got a couple of things to return from christmas. I might do some cooking (is that what you call it when you make homemade dressing?).
