The weekend recap

Still not feeling 100% and work is going to get really busy, so this will probably be a light posting week.

This past weekend was pretty rough for me emotionally.  I know I have mentioned this previously, but I've been having a rough month of August.  I have a lot of balls in the air (so to speak) and have been really stressing myself out.

I'm sure this is where the sickness is coming from.

Friday evening I had a productive conversation with my parents.  I say productive because while it was a really good conversation (and one that needed to be had), it was also a very emotional conversation.  In the end, I knew that I finally was going to have to do what I have been avoiding for the last seven months... contacting His parents.

This is not something I have wanted to do for a couple reasons.  Primarily, I wanted to keep the house issue between the two of us (he and I).  We are both adults and can deal with what we have set ourselves up for.  Also, I hadn't had any communication with his parents since the email they sent me the day he finally told them he ended it.  For as much as I loved him, I also loved his parents, and I couldn't bare the thought of having to face them.  Even if the breakup wasn't my decision.

So on Friday night I sat down and did the hardest thing.  I wrote them an email.  I explained the entire situation with the house as if they knew nothing (because I have no idea how much they do or don't know).  I explained to them my situation and my desire to make something happen with the house.  I also explained to them that timing wise, his unresponsiveness is actually becoming an issue.

And then I went to bed.  Or tried to.  I didn't really sleep that night.  I was all wound up, unsure of how they would respond and also a bit anxious as to His response if he found out I contacted them.  It's only a matter of time really.

I shouldn't have been surprised, but his mom responded to me at some point Saturday morning.  Her email was very thoughtful,  that they think about my often and just want to help get this sorted out.  Of course, in the meantime, he emailed me as well asking me to pull together some more information for him.

I spent the rest of Saturday in a lack-of-sleep haze, helping my mom fancify her blog (yes that's a word) and making some changes to mine.  Saturday night I got a bit more sleep than before.

I don't really remember what happened Sunday, which means it was probably nothing.  The weather was very off and on the entire weekend.  Sunday night we had terrible thunder and lightening.  You can guess how my night went.  Samson threw up twice and neither of us got any sleep.

Yesterday I spent majority of the day in bed with some occasional play time with Kayla and Melissa.  I cooked dinner for the bday boy (it was Justin's birthday yesterday) and watched Bachelor Pad with Melissa.

Today I am going to struggle at work...  who am I kidding, the last several weeks have been a struggle.

If I can just power through until next Wednesday, I have Thursday and Friday off to look forward to.  Woo hoo to the long weekend.
