Soooo, its been about four weeks since my last post. A whole month! Its August 1st! So much has changed since the last time I shared.
I was laid off last month but received a new job at Macy's two days later.I'm excited but I've only been to one training session and my next training session isn't for another week, so basically I've been trying to keep myself busy. Its hard being unemployed after being accustomed to working but hey, I'm getting used to this CHANGE concept. I've accepted the fact that sometimes, you really have no control. I'm no longer anxious or irritated by that thought. I think I'm actually starting to embrace it. The optimist in me has not died. I know that just as quickly as something terrible can happen, something amazing can happen.
During my time away from work I've been spending a lot of time with a friend. For privacy purposes I'll just refer to her as my Scorpio Sister. Since she doesn't work and is not in school this summer, we've both been two bored bitches that don't mind being bored together. We've grown closer this summer and I have appreciated her friendship.
We never did end up going on a road trip to Ohio. However, I did have to get somethings out of my apartment out at my old school, which is about two hours away from Chicago, so we turned that into a trip. We went shopping, ate, watched one of our favorite trashy reality TV shows, took pictures, ate again and surprised her boo thing at his job for his birthday. It was a fun time, and I really needed it. I don't know how I would have survived this summer without her. My best friend/sister is in Boston for the summer, and all my other friends have jobs and/or just live too far. So its been great to have someone to hang out with and take my mind off of the break up.
I'm doing much better. Of course I still think about him and us but not in the same light. I'm not angry or sad. I just accept what has happened and I'm moving on. Although I've had some help, I know that I've had to do a lot of internal work on my own. . Getting my thoughts and emotions in check and on the same accord. I can truly say that I'm OK. Im proud of myself and how Im handling the situaiton.
Im just so ready to be working again and back in school. I am definitely ready to see this summer go!
