Keepin busy-hooray!!!!!

OK, well I have decided that I need to keep busy to keep my mind on me and off him. I did have the phone service disable the acceptance of collect calls feature, so starting tomorrow it will be impossible for him to call me from jail and I sure wont be trying to call him, not that I could anway.
Now, I will be doing the following things...

1) Working two jobs to save for a house of MY OWN! No roomates, no SO.
2) Going back to school 2 nights a week to get my degree I never finished-printed off a course schedule today and applied
3) Paying off bills I negelcted bc it scared me to look at them-paid 2 today
4) Will commit to thinking about working out!
5) Buy a dayplanner so I can keep everything straight!
6) Read my recently ordered books
7) Schedule time for my dog to go to doggy day care one day a week to let him run around and maybe stop eating my clothes
9) Plan a long weekend trip with my oldest and best friend who could not be happier for me
10) Continue going to my therapist one day a week to not lose sight of what I am aiming for-sanity and healthy choices.

WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If only I could get in shape by thinking about working out, I'd be Mr. Universe by now!!! Schwarzenegger who?

I tried that, but I kept forgetting to open the damn thing ("it works if you work it"?). Now I carry a digital voice recorder in my pocket, and this actually works.

Good job, Elizabeth! I'm happy for you!

Elizabeth! You rock! These are all GREAT things - I've been all action in my own recovery today too - also paid a bill I've been looooong avoiding. And I printed out a worksheet to start tracking my monthly expenses, will open a savings account tomorrow. I watched Suze Orman last night, and on Tuesday I took a class about home/condo buying for the first time (I'm sick of renting - and intend to do this ON MY OWN). I also thought about going to the gym today! (that is too funny)...

Yay for our own productivity! Feels AWESOME! Congratulations to you!
