Thoughts

I don't think I have ever been this busy at work. I have been bombarded with meetings, strat sessions, workshops that seem to go on forever. I can't believe that it's Thursday already cos don't ask me where the week went. There is a ton of stuff to do but guess what - I am having fun. I am really enjoying everything and yes it can be dragging and draining at times cos I sometimes hardly have time to grab a sandwhich but its fun.


Did I mention that I absolutely love my boss. I keep thinking that oops if I say that she might turn out to be a meany - by I really like her and she is uber cool and loads of fun while doing really serious work. It's really great working for someone who believes in you. Sooo different to my previous bosses who would frustrate me to no end with their clueless I don't know what to do next kind of manner.


T and I were on a warpath of note this week. I don't know what was wrong with me. I am blaming it on pms but everything the poor guy said or did just pissed me off to know end. He is also rather stressed out and with his family life nothing is ever simple or easy. I feel him so sorry for him. I guess I was being a real meany but ive said sorry and all is OK....


As for my cousin - that is a different story. I don't know if I will ever be able to allow her to get close to me again. To be honest I was upset last week. She said some really horrible things to me and even though I in a very nice way put her straight I still got upset with what she said. I don't live with my dad. We have a pretty non-existent relationship and we are more like very strange acquaintances than father and daughter. I am so ok with it. Yes granted there are times when I wonder what it would be like to have my dad in my life permanently. But my cousin didn't have to so candidly tell me that if you had a dad things would have been very different for you with the wedding. Why cos dad's don't usually like to spend and maybe he wouldn't have allowed you to spend on stuff that you really wanted. That was mean and nasty. You don't tell people stuff like that - its just wrong. And besides why should she worry about my financial affairs.

So yes she did tell me things that are of no concern to her, but she did and I don't know if I can look past that. I am not usually like that. I am the most forgiving person I know and am not one to bear grudges but in this case she drew a line and I just don't know if I will be able to look past it. She has no right to comment in my life and besides she got upset first. A really silly reason to get upset because she doesn't have any right to tell us what to do and what not to do. I wasn't going to let it get to me but I was upset about it. The sick conversation that we had last week kept on playing in my mind. However I have decided to just ignore it and not let her or anyone for that matter get to me.

Im sooo glad it's the weekend. Oh and by the way I really need to get back to the gym.....
