It's Me!

Things have been going pretty well around here lately.

I started back to college for the first time in at least 6 years. I am working on getting my +15 Master's credits. I'm taking the classes through PLS. I started my first class last weekend, and it's really fun. My friend Michele is taking that class with me and Michele and Amy will be taking the next 3 with me. Since the first one is in Port Huron, Michele and I stayed at a hotel last Friday and we'll do it again this coming Friday. It's a lot of fun. Oops, I said that already!

This week at work I got the chance to present twice to my colleagues. At our staff meeting I presented on how to use Word. A lot of our teacher are used to using Appleworks, but since MAC isn't making it anymore, they need to start becoming more familiar with Word. Then today I held a little 2 hour workshop after school. We need to get 9 hours of "On Your Own" hours of trainings, and some of need those. So, at the request of a few people I threw together a workshop to expose them to several websites that our school has subscriptions too, and also how to use our new school cameras and the iPhoto program. Hopefully I was able to teach at least one new thing to each person. If each of us walks away with one new idea, then I feel it was a success.

I've been working out more often that I had in a very long time. I've been getting up to Fitness USA alone and sometimes with my girlfriends. I've also been doing some Billy Blanks DVDs and circuit training at school with some other teachers. Hopefully our step aerobics will get started again at school too. The exercise is really helping me to feel better.

Tomorrow I go sign my divorce papers. That really makes me sad since I really don't want my marriage to be over. But, there's nothing I can do about it. So, I had to take a day off to drive over to the lawyers' office to sign. His lawyer has been nothing but incompetent when it comes to drafting up paperwork. It has ended up costing me so much more because my lawyer has to keep pointing out the errors and fixing it. She's pretty sure it's acceptable now. I'm just really sick of spending the money.

Brian and I are getting along very well. He's been great with me. In fact, he's been treating me wonderfully for the first time in the 17 years we've known each other. He's been a fantastic dad with the girls too. I'm not going to go into any more detail than that because he and I have great communication and we just discuss things now. I don't have any need to put any more unhappy rantings on here. He's nothing like the jerk that had taken over his body throughout the summer. So, for those of you that enjoyed reading my dirt, I thank you for your interest, but there's not any dirt going on here anymore.

The one last thing I'll mention for those gossip seekers out there: The psycho that caused me pain all summer is still psycho and still trying to be a part of our lives. She's no longer a source of pain for me. I am fully aware of what a loser she is, what a whore she is, and how she continues to prey on men that don't belong to her. If I didn't dislike her so much, she might even have pity from me because she really is in such a sad situation. I don't normally find happiness in someone else's sad life, but her looniness actually makes me crack a smile or two or maybe even three :)

There, that's it for now. I'm off to bed. Good Night!
