AHH The Weekend!!

Ahh! What bliss the weekend is finally here. This week has been a struggle in some areas for me, but its all good in the hood now that Friday is here ;o). I started my fourth term this past Wednesday, and oh my what a doosie it is gonna be. I had my first A&P class and oh my is my instructor boring! It was like Ben Stine except not nasally. I hope this next 9 weeks go by fast. Oh and he is a stickler for rules, no personal this, or that, and you have to have one reference for each discussion class. I guess I got used to my past instructors having us use our brains for our own insight and thoughts not someone else.

Anyways I'm quite excited tonight! I love ice hockey for those of you who do not know, and my Philadelphia Flyers are making history tonight! They were down 0-3 in the play off series against the Bruins, and have managed to come back, tie the series, an force a game 7. If they win tonight they will be the 3rd team in all of NHL history to do so. So I am watching that game tonight! I can't wait.

Tomorrow I'm off to the beach with my only friend here in FL. We're going to enjoy the 91 degree weather, and have some drinks by the ocean. The only pleasant thing about living in FL or at least until the oil spill ruins our waters.

Boundaries anyone???

So About.com defines boundaries as the following: " The emotional and physical space that we place between ourselves and others." Why is this something that many have a hard time setting, and when set others have a hard time following? In my life I must admit I am learning how to set boundaries with people. I have always had a personality where I let people use me, dump on me and so forth and so on. When I do not do this I feel somehow guilty and like a bad person. I am learning to say no though :0), which I might add is a good thing.

Yet I find I get sucked into emotional crap on a daily basis by a certain unnamed friend. I mean I understand I'm your friend, I will be a shoulder for you to cry on but GOOD GRIEF I'm an office assistant not a therapist!!!!! If I say I'm sorry you are having a bad day I will contact you later, don't IM me two hours later to tell me your ex told his new girlfriend he loves her! I mean I know it hurts but the person who told you most definitely did it to hurt you. There is nothing you can do to change it! Just buck up and say he was a 33 yr old loser dead beat dad of 2 working at Chili's not doing anything with his life, who couldn't handle a strong female so he is now with a 20 year old. I mean can we say LOSER!!!!

These are the only words I can say. I can't do anything else, except turn my phone off so I can actually work! Should I really need to do this? I mean really? All I have to say is ..... BOUNDARIES ANYONE?????????

Fun, Family, Sun & Knitting

Well this weekend since it was my weekend "off" from school I lived it up ! My step sister graduated from the University of North Florida on Friday. She graduated with a Major in International Business Administration & a Minor in Spanish.I took Friday off work and drove up to Jacksonville for the day. I am very proud of her! She went to college the same year that she graduated high school, even though her mom passed away when she was 17. After the ceremony we spent the day together. I had a lot of fun with her and her friends. We went to something called A Margarita fest. It was basically like a wine tasting convention but for liquor. It was a lot of fun, there were tables everywhere and most of them had new un - released alcohol which they were showcasing.

Saturday morning my friend Jodi and I went to New Smyrna Beach for the day. It was really hot here in Central Florida this weekend like 90 degrees. Needless to say even though I used sunscreen an reapplied several times I got sunburned. I had fun though, I met some new people. So by Saturday night I was so exhausted I was asleep before midnight, and slept in until 9:30 this morning.Needless to say I have had a very unproductive day today. It basically consisted of me laying on the couch watching T.V.

Oh Well! A girl is allowed laziness sometimes, right?
