Update

Hi all, haven't updated in quite a while, sorry about that! Here's the latest and greatest:

I've been faithfully working out at the gym, just about every day. Since the weather has been getting nicer, I've been riding my bike to the gym instead of driving. I really like it for a few reasons, a) it saves me on gas, b) I'm getting a slight warmup (takes me about 10 minutes to get there), c) I'm getting use out of the bike I bought a few years back and have barely used, well up until the past 2 years anyways. Have been getting better about using that, so that makes me happy!

Our softball team is pretty good so far, our record is 3-1. I'm throwing better, hitting further, I don't get so winded when I run the bases. I didn't realize that the benefits of me working out would extend to other areas in my life. I know....duh right....but I honestly didn't think about that.

I have heard a comment lately - directed at me - that has pissed me right off. Yes readers, it is shit list time. The comment is: "So you're 33, no kids, no boyfriend, never been married. What's wrong with you?" Ok, let me just say, I don't point out to people that the way their marriage works scares the crap outta me because of the constant bickering and bullshit that goes with it. Why is it ok for people to say that to me? Oh mind you, one of the people who said that were DIVORCED. Hmmmph. It shouldn't bother me that someone said that, and I should be confident enough to deflect their stupidity, but you know...when you hear it twice in one day, you do start to spend some time thinking about it. Jerks.

I'm so close to being done working a second job, I can smell it. I will once again have my weekends back and I'm really looking forward to it. Having just Sundays off for the past few months has really sucked. But I told myself I was going to pay off some debt, because I refuse to be the 60ish person who still has to work because I have so much debt. People act surprised to find out I have a second job, like "exactly how much debt do you have?" I just keep thinking, you know - it doesn't matter how much debt I have, I just want to get rid of it. This is my way of doing it.

Well, I need to get ready to go to work, so that's all for now. Hope everyone who reads this has a fabulous day and I'll update again soon :)

You are a strong confident woman and do not settle for second best, it is ok that you are not married or have children. Life is not about collecting people and responsiblity on the way it is that you are happy with how you live it! So you tell those people to stick it.
I thought marriage would make me happy but it is the hardest thing you will ever do, well that and raising a child on your own, but at this point the child is easier.
