I am a 39 year old, stay at home mother of a beautiful baby boy. I got married late in life when I was 35, and had my son at 38. Although I never planned on marriage or children, I have to say that both my husband and son are the best thing that could have happened to me (regardless of how much I bitch and moan). My passion is for travel and cooking. I also love to write and have been blogging on d-land since 2003. (Click HERE to read more.)

The Real Scoop

you know what i mean?
2005-08-26, 4:01 p.m.


i have been so much happier since i got my ass back to the gym. a mere 30 minutes a day does a world of good for my outlook - the endorphins. not so sure it's having much of an effect on my thighs as of yet but check back in a month.

also i've beenusing L'Oreal Sublime Anti-Cellulite gel, and I swear I've noticed a difference.

took adonis with me last night to the gym and enjoyed the jacuzzi and steam room and the sauna. felt like a million bucks after.

******

having a hard time at work. confronted my co-worker, as advised by my supervisors, and she was not receptive at all. she was not wiling to admit how RUDE it is to SHUSH someone, let alone how snyde she can be. i approached her in a way that was not threatening. tried not to use the word "you" rathen "I feel"...still didn't work.

my supervisors are on my side, as many people have complained about this woman recently, but it doesn't make it any easier knowing that next tuesday i have to return to my spot and deal with her attitude. i have been floating for another partner while my boss has been in China the past three weeks. what a breath of fresh air to be out of that tension-filled environment. (why do I always end up with these people). everywhere i go i get stuck with difficult people. i guess they're everywhere.

i may ask to change spots. i don't need this in my life.

finally when I'm happier than I've ever been...BAM.

i don't say this about many people...but i really hate her. (although I do sort of feel sorry for her....she lives alone with five cats and has no idea how to talk to people. she is 54 years old.

people tell me I've been extremely patient and tolerant up until this point. but a person can only take so much.

******

my greek teacher will come to my house now, every saturday, to tutor me. we started last saturday and already i feel an improvement. also i didn't realize how much i learned last year until we did a review.

*****

i'm reading a remarkable book, "Passionate Marriage", by David Schnarch. I recommend this book to everyone. you don't have to be married or in a relationship to benefit from Schnach's insights into relationships.

this book is a respectful, erotic and spiritual guide dedicated to making intimacy and love a reality for every couple.

*****

adonis does not get angry anymore. i am amazed by this. he seems so happy. so alive. affectionate and playful. one of his friends recently told me how much of a change they have seen in him. he used to be so angry. now that seems to have been replaced with some kind of calm serenity that they never expected to see in him of all people. i told him, that's what happens when you feel loved, accepted, desired, and supported. you begin to trust and let go of the past, all the anger and the pain. you look forward to the future. it's called HEALING.

we still have the occasional argument, but we end now with sometimes closer than we were before, and resolve the matters quickly without holding onto any grudges.

we move on.

******

i realized yesterday how much my co-worker reminds me of my stepmother.

god forgive me, but i keep waiting for the phone call....

you know what i mean?
