Single White Female

That’s right buddies…I am single again!!! TEMPORARILY!!! 

Had you all worried, eh?? HAH! The husband is gone on his annual salmon fishing expedition…For three days I have my whole house to myself and I am as free as a bird!!! WOO HOO!! 

I have already gotten two drunken phone calls from him…He is with his best childhood friend and his brother in law…They all grew up together, of course, so they have this whole male bonding thing going on… I really don’t think there is much fishing going on at all, to be honest…I think the poor captain does MOST of the work…While the husband and his buddies kick back and drink cheap beer and reminisce… 

Still, it was somewhat amusing to get a phone call this morning at 5:30 a.m. from him saying “Dawnie! I caught my first fish! Oh, and I think I won a bunch of money last night!” You think???? You don’t remember??? Nope…He does not remember… 

Did I neglect to mention they are also staying at a casino??? Drunken men at a casino…Should be interesting… He is having some much deserved fun, and truly, that is all that matters… 

Now… Me…I am loving the single life…Got up on Sunday, did WHATEVER I wanted WHENEVER I wanted…It was GREAT…No one but me to clean up after…Ahhhh…Nice!!!!  So, I went to the doctors this morning for a follow up. Everything is going well but I told her how last week I felt hungry all the time and I thought I had a worm…She said that my medication DOES make me crave carbs… 

Hellloooooo!?!?!?! Couldn’t she have told me that up front??? Geesh. I could have prepared…No wonder I was gnawing on the cupboards…At least it wasn’t in my head! Gotta enough stuff in this head…Don’t need that too! Went shopping this weekend…Bought some cute new end of summer clearance clothes…They all fit, but not WELL, if you know what I mean…So I am using them as my visual stimulator…Gonna try them on once a week for the next month to gage my progress…I hope by summers end they fit great or God willing, they may be LOOSE!! 

I feel rejuvenated, once again, this week…Since the husband is gone I am going to work out longer every night this week…We have a giant birthday bash to attend up at a resort next weekend, and I want to look my best in my swimsuit…Very very excited…  Feel extremely motivated this week again now that my mood has stabilized and my medication has stabilized… That’s it for me! Have a healthy, happy week all!!! 

Love-Dawn

    Good Idea about the clothes, buying things a little tight is a great motivater!! Hope your time alone is fun, keep up on the exercise (I need to do that too!). Have fun!

    Girl, I am thrilled that the medication is working for you, I can tell in your blog you are doing much, much better and for that, I couldn’t be happier. You’re such a wonderful woman, you truly deserve happiness and balance in your life!!

    It’s nice to have some alone time, but I sure do miss my hunny when he’s gone.

    Enjoy the reunion when he gets back!!!

    I am so glad that you both are doing so well. Hope your weekend went well. You crack me up with so many things, but the gnawing on the cupboard thing, truly who hasn’t felt like that? Well maybe those pills are a bit different then the normal stress…hehe Stay strong as they say hey? I have to work on this, but who doesn’t? Good to see you and I love how you are smiling bright. Have a great weekend Dawnie.

    I have been out of the loop, medication? I have been hungry alot lately, maybe I have a worm. I haven’t thought of that! I am glad you are feeling energized.
