Two years ago my marriage was "unofficially" over. Dan knew it...took me a while to catch on. I can't believe it's only been two years...seems like a lifetime. So many unanswered questions, regrets, wishes, hopes...just give us another try, please. You owe me that...I don't owe you anything.
It's hard not to dwell on it. It's hard not to think about it. It is the elephant in the room every morning when I wake up.
Someday it won't hurt...as much.

Three More Weeks
That's how long I have until this semester from Hell is over. Here's what I'm doing to survive the next three weeks:
I've already made arrangements for next semester to go from four classes to three. I need a break.
I've decided to not spend a majority of my day trying to figure out Math when it's never going to happen.
I've got two of the four end of semester projects done. The other two are with teams, so I hope we can get together and get it done. Both need a paper and a PowerPoint.
I am still working on the triathlon. In fact, this past Saturday I made it 25 meters without stopping! Now, considering I need to do something like 100 times that for the race, I've got my work cut out for me.
I decided I really do need to eat better because I'm constantly tired because I either sleep too much or not enough and have no energy when I'm at the gym. So, I'm seeing a nutritionist to help get me on the right track. Imagine a culinary student not knowing how to eat correctly! This will also help me with my culinary skills. I just hate cooking for just me, but I have to do it.
My bike has gone to the shop for a tune-up and will be road and race ready! I've joined a bike club through the gym and am so excited about it! That's the one goal I had for this year - before the triathlon - to join a bike club and get out to meet people. Plus I want to become a more efficient cyclist.
I want to get an internship the semester after next. That's what I'm working on now as far as employment. I'm still employed, but taking a break from it for now.
A friend of mine from the gym gave me some good advise. She said be in the moment. When you're at the gym, be at the gym, not thinking about all the other stuff you have to do. When you're doing homework, do homework and not feel guilty that you're not at the gym. The other good piece of advise came from my counselor. She said I should spend a few times a day just meditating. Taking the time for me - no TV, no computer, just relax and heal.
So, coming up I have two projects to finish, four finals to study for, one of which is a cooking final. BUT, I've finished two projects and started on the other two. I've got a schedule going so I know what needs to get done when. That's all I can do.
