I didn’t wake up until 8:30am and that felt so nice (especially since I didn’t go to sleep until after 1am)! I was lazy for a bit. I finally got in the shower around 10. My sons friend got here at 11 (I LOVE being asked if a friend can come over about 10 minutes before they get here π). We all packed in the car and went to therapy at noon. I went to speak with the psychologist first. I had him sign my copy of his book too.
I told him what’s been going on in my world. 1. I haven’t had a cigarette in over 3 weeks.
2. My mother is dating AND going to a grief group (pick one please π). 3. My ex is afraid he’s going to jail because of non payment of child support (he was warned a year ago that if he missed payments he would be going π¬). 4. My sons grades went from mostly A’s with a B or 2 to mostly B’s with an A or 2. 5. I am looking for a regular job again.
Then my son talked to him. 1. He wants to get in the special high school so he is bringing his grades back up. 2. He has a girlfriend (how do 13 year olds actually date?). 3. He hates everyone but puts up with them so he’s not alone. 4. He is doing his chores like I ask and listening (which is amazing to me).
I took my son and his friend for ice cream after and ate some too. I got a small scoop of chocolate ice cream. My son got a huge cone and his friend got the big cup of blue ice cream. You see they both have their phones out. Kids these days!
When we got back home, I didn’t want to study yet so I went to the gym. I did 30 minutes on the treadmill walking and running, 30 minutes on the elliptical, and 15 minutes on the stationary bike. When I was completely worn out, I walked home.
Then it was study time, right? NOPE! 2 other friends of my child showed up so I ordered pizza for dinner for all of us. I ate my cheese pizza.
I talked to BFF for like an hour. Now I’m writing this. When am I going to get the 3 chapters that are due on Monday done? Umm…one tonight and 2 tomorrow? Maybe. Hopefully. Thank goodness I don’t have my other class work due this coming week!!!
The issue I have tomorrow is I have to grocery shop, cook, work out again (I DID eat pizza tonight), and get ready for the week doing laundry and dishes and stuff. So I should have done this today. Oh well. I have until 11:59pm on Monday. Maybe I will do one today, one tomorrow, and one Monday? LOL I just love Anatomy π€£.
It’s 8:30pm so I better get going on the parts of a cell!
Do you and your son have the same hair color now?
Is your mom dating someone from grief support?

Oh! That’s so awesome that your psychologist has a book & you had him sign it! He must be a really good one. π Congrats on 3 weeks of not smoking– I knew you could do it! & Hey, maybe your mom needs both the grief group & the dating to help mend her broken heart… everyone heals differently. β€ I was doing lots in my 13 year old relationships but I admit I was a bit fast LOL. The ice cream looks sooo good! I hope you were able to get all your school work done & best of luck on your job search!
