N, Glad to see that the check came in and you didn't have to email him about it. Sometimes it's best to wait a day or so for such things, especially when you aren't sure as to what to do about them.
Keep applying for positions. Something has to come through for you very soon.
Enjoy the holiday. Are you going to visit w/your parents?
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
Yes, it was great that I got that check. I sure didn't want to have to email him, I know ow is in charge of that email, this is according to my x sil so she would intercept it anyway.
I will keep applying, something has just got to come through soon!!!
I am going to visit with my parents & I'm looking forward to it. I haven't been home in a while.
I really had a nice weekend with my parents for Easter. I haven't been on the boards lately, just been busy after getting back home & doing things around here.
I have been working a little. I signed up with a temp agency & I worked half a day on Friday & all day today & I think the rest of this week. At least it's something. Today was pretty rough for me. It's only 2 blocks from where my xh used to work & when I worked full time he & I would have lunch every single day, so lunch time today was very hard for me!! I was down yesterday also & then today didn't help. I'll get out of it but it's just really hard & I miss him so bad.
I am happy for you that you had a nice Easter with your parents. Great that you found some temp work. It will at least keep you busy. I am sorry though that you are so close to your XH's work place. I know how you feel about being reminded of the "good old days" and that it is hard for you. I can imagine that you miss your XH.
Despite all of this, I hope your mind will be distracted by your work and I wish you a nice week. (((HUGS)))
Thank you so much for thinking of me & posting to my thread. I'm so tired!! I have signed up with a temp firm & got a temp job for just this week. It doesn't pay much but at least it's a little something. It's an agency that books entertainers so I'm dealing a lot with contracts & stuff like that. I doubt it will turn into full time but they really like me & may need me a couple of months. I hate the hours. 9:30am until 6:30pm. I don't like getting off at 6:30 b/c I can't get anything done around my house & I'm so tired that I don't get up early enough to do it. Oh well, it will all work out, at least I'm getting out of the house some.
I do miss having lunch with my xh like we used to do everyday for 18 years. But I'm better now than I was the first of the week. I still miss him & think about him all the time but I'm not as sad as I was on Monday. I just didn't think I could stand it but I did!
I hope to catch up on the boards soon!
(((HUGS)) I think about everyone of you, everyday!!
Hi Nit, good news on the work front, you are bound to be exhausted,both mental and physical that is quite normal and understandable until your body adjusts. It will get easier and I can see it doing you the world of good, sometimes change that we are relunctant to do gives us the greatest blessings. You are bound to miss the lunch times but you recognised that and see that you are getting better at it so yes be very proud of yourself. I know how hard this has been for you. Take care.
