Changes…..to calmer waters…..

1010081906 

As you can see it has been a long time since I last posted here.  But I have come to an understanding after a two year long of recovery that has included deep sorrow, loss of work, opening and closing a business and the going back to school, graduating, a two month job search and the start of a new career. Tiered just thinking about it all.

Putting all things into perspective is always harder then it appears.  First I like to look at all that has gone on and where it leads.  In order to do that I find that i have to get myself outside of the picture and that is not the easiest thing to do.  So when i am in doubt i make the most inappropriate comment to my friend C and he always has a good slap to the back of my head that always seems to work for some reason.  Thanks that smarts……

Ok nut shell of what has gone on since I last was writing here.  JP and I had a great nine months till he got a job offer in Montevideo Uruguay.  Helping with the reeducation project of South American countries for World Bank.  I really didn’t want him to go but come on how many times are you going to get a chance to travel all over the place and help improve the education systems for multiple countries.

So off he went. One little detail he didn’t tell me about right away.  His boss was his X and thought that they would be getting back together.  Didn’t happen getting back together.  We stayed together for a total of 5 years.  I flew down twice and fell in love with Montevideo.  Wonderful people culture and a beautiful place.

Well twice he was to move back up here and for one reason or another he changed his mind and stayed in Montevideo.  So at long last I decided to move down there.  This is were every thing started to go wrong at long last.  I quit my job to be able to remodel my place and get every thing packed up for my move. Place the condo on the market to be sold.

With a week left to go headed over to a friends place for a farewell party.  After the party I came home and checked my e-mail and had one waiting for me from JP.  It was a dear john.

I have spent the last two years recovering from that e-mail and have just started to really get back on my feet being self reliant and able to take care of myself once again.

Currently I have just started a new career as a Pharmacy Technician at Group Health and love it.  I have been making new friends on top of the group that I am always hanging out with.  I am going forward with my life and am doing even a little dating.

During the last two years I have done a little dating but have had the knack of picking the wrong guy but that must have been my subconscious telling me that I was not ready for a relationship yet. 

Well I must be heading in the right direction as the last three guys that I have found interesting and that have showed some interest in me as lest were not a total bitch or so jaded and bitter that being in a relationship was just out of the question no matter how god the sex was.  But the last three had one thing in common.  Just out of a relationship and rebounding.  All they wanted was someone to listen to them and a shoulder to cry on.  Much better the Jaded and Bitchy.  Truth be told I rather enjoy being there when someone needs a shoulder.  Makes them feel better and me at the same time.

Next please……

Hugs all!
