Have you ever woken up and thought it obvious that you needed a "reset". Like a "start-over" or "do-over"? Or maybe, your reset button was pressed for you. Or maybe you've been pressing it for years, and finally your system re-booted?
Well, that's what happened to me, and I've decided to chronical it, right here. You know I thought turning 40 was a big milestone - worthy of blogging. And then I thought the next weight loss attempt was worthy of a blog. Or training for a half-marathon (which never happened by the way).
Well let me tell ya - I have a habit of not listening to that voice in my head and well, my reset button has just been....reset shall we say. But in the most amazing way possible.
I have just broken up with my third (very) serious relationship (two marriages and a livein) and I am 45. I woke up at 45 on anti-depressents, sleeping pills, in a marriage I despised, and 30 lbs over weight. Push the reset button PLEASE!!!!!! OMG how did that happen? If someone would have told me all of this when I was 20 I wouldn't have believed it. Who'd want to right? Right?
And so, here I am - waiting for my "ex" husband to get home from his "full-time job" as a ski instructor (more on that - groan) so I can review a financial spreadsheet with him to buy him out of all things labeled "asset" - namely 2 houses. It's 4:35 EST and I have poured my first glass of wine.
So welcome to my little home inside my home. I'll be here alot - workin' stuff out. Maybe someone will read this and find refuge in my stories. This is my life, I own it, I got it, I'll fix it, and I will damn well push my "reset" button whenever the hell is pleases me from now on. :)
Hope you don't think I'm nuts - I'm not. I actually have a great Corporate Exec job, lots of friends, two houses in the trendiest areas in my city, I just bought a brand new baby Prius (thank you reset button) and have a wonderful family. I'm not crazy. I just don't listen - ever - to that frackin' inner voice of mine. What. Is. Up. With. That?????
Here I will barf out every little whisper and if you're reading feel free to comment or tell me I'm crazy. All good. I'll just hit the delete button if I don't like it - ha, just kidding.
Thanks for dropping in - maybe we can be friends.
Hugs,
Susan
p.s. I don't even like hugging! :-S
