HapPy NeW YeaR!!
Lots of happiness in my world right now! The Professor and I are still going strong. He rocks my world - seriously, upside down rockin'! In so many ways we are different, but we are the same in others. We're still learning about each other and about the kind of relationship we both agreed to embark on; one built on traditional roles - he's Tarzan, I'm Jane :) Oh of course it goes deeper than that, but that's best saved for another post (maybe one day).
Hey the gym is still part of my life - barely. I hope to return within the week. I did gain some holiday pounds, but thanks to the stomach flu, I lost it all + 3 more! But my appetite has returned so I need to get to the gym (with gusto) and get myself in better shape.
My kid is in a new relationship with someone that treats her wonderfully. I'm happy for Mari.
I've always posted about my job because it's such an important aspect of my life, but I've decided to tone down that importance. I've decided to pull way back on project work. This is the most that I've ever pulled back and I feel great about it! I don't feel like I'm going to miss something if I'm not on every project that I can get my hands on, I don't feel like people will think badly of me if I don't work like a dog, nah I'm done with that way of thinking. Dude, it's time for me to look forward to going home and actually leaving my job at 5p instead of 7 or 8 or 9! So right now, work is where it should be - on the back burner. Yeah.
I took two weeks off for the holidays and spent almost every single day with the Professor and his daughter. When vacation was over, it felt kind of weird not being with him, but soon enough I got back into the routine of work and all that goes with that - I've even enjoyed hanging out at home this past week, working on a jigsaw puzzle, taking it easy by staying put, not having to be anywhere - it's been quite nice.
But I do miss the Professor :) We'll be seeing each other soon enough - this weekend! It's his birthday so we'll be doing some celebrating.
My furry kids, Toula, Noodles, and Spatz are doing well. Each of them entertaining in their own special way. All of them are so loving, but they do have their own way of expressing themselves. Toula is jealous of her brother, but loves to hang out with him, Noodles is in her own little world, doing her own thing, while Spatz wants to be part of everyone's world. It's hard to imagine life without them.
Well there you have it; my corner of the Uni-verse.
I'm signing off for now - it's late, and I need my beauty rest.
Thanks for reading.
