The Retrograde continues....
Yesterday, I found out I had forgotten to bill at work which turned out to be a substantial amount of money. I chalked it to the chaos that ensued after coworker quit. But, that it no excuse. My perfectionism let me down again. This morning at 3 am, my cat somehow got the window blind rope tied around her tail and, this just so happens to be right above my bed. I was trying to help her and she took a giant bite outta my right thumb which makes it virtually impossible to hold or write anything, as I sit and type my poor thumb is throbbing....damn!
I have 2 months to take my vacation but as we would have to hire someone else so that I could, it doesn't look like I will be taking any of my vacation. Last night I was so tired I went home and went straight to bed. Roomie asked me if I was going to exercise and it irritated me. I'm not obese by any means-I need to lose about 5 lbs at the most, but, being the closet anorexic that I am, let my mind wander to that dark corner again. I almost said "Have you had you daily 12 pack yet?"
My phone gets shut off tommorow. Do I totally isolate myself as I wish I could away from everyone and Roomie especially?
How the majority of me wants to have that conversation with him and just say "This isn't working, we can remain friends but thats all". How do you hurt someone?

It sounds like you had a bad day! It happens to all of us at times...
I remember when I use to work for this company as a supervisor....I could never plan a vacation because if one of my workers called in sick and I couldn't get anyone to come in and replace him or her, then I had to work for that person. The company is no longer in existance thanks to NAFTA (North american free trade agreement.) All the jobs went to mexico where they could be done much cheaper!
I think it's important to tell the truth weather it hurts or not....That being said, I have not always been truthful myself for fear of emotionally hurting someone but yet I have seen times when I forced myself to tell the truth and the person magically accepted it without feeling hurt at all!
Despite having that knowledge that something good always comes from telling the truth even though I may not see it right away,,,,I still struggle with being honest all the time because like you, I have a heart and I hate to hurt someones feelings....
Life can be difficult at times...
BobinMaine,
I am taking off Nov 1st I think and headed to the treehouse. After what happened last time, I am reluctant to go, but I think if I get there early, I can get one. I need time away but at the same time, Ive got to start making things happen. May is coming soon and my lease will be over.
