Today is Friday. It’s the last day of my work week. I love Fridays!
My husband has gone for the weekend to visit his parents about 3 to 3 1/2 hours away and it’s just going to be me and the dog all weekend. Can you say AWESOME!?! My plans? I have none.
Today is a new day and I woke up feeling good not only because it’s Friday but because I read my responses to yesterday’s blog entry last night before I went to bed. I woke up knowing I wasn’t alone. I also woke up knowing there are people out there that believe and live knowing that fat phobia is WRONG! I woke up feeling validated!!
The sun is peeking out from behind the clouds and the chill is still in the air. I’m finished Christmas shopping and I’m going to make candy and bake cookies this weekend. I might even go hit a couple of clothing sales for me tomorrow (I need some long sleeved shirts and blouses for work).
I’m feeling good and accepted today. I’m accepting myself today and that’s always a good thing, right? I hope you all have a great weekend and I’ll see ya later!

Hooray for feeling validated! Hooray for alone time with a beloved pet!
Enjoy this time. Eat and sleep on your own schedule. Do something fun for yourself. Feel the warm fuzzies? Yeah, they’re coming from me. I’m sending them psychically.
ps: You’ve been saying lately you don’t have anyone nearby to go to for validation, so feel free to contact me privately anytime. I’m online a LOT and I believe in you.
Thanks Twistie and you might want to keep an eye on your inbox!
Hi there,
I’m happy to hear that you are feeling better. Some days are better than others! But you’ve got friends! 🙂 Have a great weekend!
papumorgado, thanks and I hope you have a great weekend too!
I second Twistie’s comments! Reach out, we all love ya, doll!
Thanks notblueatall! Back atcha!
How uplifting! I feel better by proxy. Is it a big deal that your husband is going to visit the Ps without you? I was just wondering if you initiated it. The point is you have your home and your life to yourself this weekend. Enjoy!
Hey JR~
Actually no, I didn’t initiate the visit with his parents. He goes by himself to see them three or four times a year. I love it when he does because it gives me some much needed alone time. He used to have a job where he was on overnight stays a lot and that would give me some down time but he doesn’t have that position anymore. I love my hubby but I love my alone time too!
How uncanny, my husband is also going away for the weekend, also to visit his parents, also about 3.5 hours drive. Although I’ll be alone with two dogs and three cats, and I’m going to be baking with my mother on Sunday morning.

That is awesome, I’m glad today is a better day! Now enjoy your alone time, that sounds fantastic. 🙂
Thanks Jerome! I appreciate it and I will!
