This is the first weekend in awhile that I don't have a bunch of plans or arrangements, so I should be able to put some thought into all of these things and get organized and figure out where to get started. I don't doubt my ability to get everything done when it needs to be done (I was the college student that would get my paper done by 10pm the night before it was due and feel like that was "late" whereas everyone else was pulling all-nighters, so I' not a procrastinator by nature) - I think just knowing all those things are "out there" carries a huge weight. I think I am going to set aside the divorce stuff because there is really not much more I can do with that until H is ready to work with me on it. I sent him a list of things that need to happen, so I'll remove that from my plate until he responds and figure out what needs to go back on it.
Today I'll start with little things: get to the gym, go grocery shopping, order my bridesmaid dress for the June wedding. Clean my toilet and then make some lists so at least everything is down on paper and less likely to be floating around in my head.
I've seen a few posts lately about dating. I really don't know how dating works so I'm scared as heck. For example, if I'm interested in someone, can't I just say "hey, I think you're cool, do you want to hang out sometime?" Or is that too forward? I just don't know. The guy I met with mutual friends right before Christmas is still intriguing to me but I haven't seen him since then, and my friends say it would be "creepy" to facebook him or message him since we only met the one time in a group with 10 other people. But then again, maybe I shouldn't be thinking about this at ALL until the divorce is final. But at this point, I've been "separated" for over a year, so does the final hearing really make any difference, except for how potential dates might perceive me? I dunno. Like some of the ladies here have mentioned, I'm not really looking for a relationship yet but just want to see what's out there and be reassured that decent guys DO exist and COULD actually be interested in me!
