I'm grateful it's Wednesday and hump day. I'm grateful for a roof over my head at night. I'm grateful for a bed to sleep in. And I am always grateful for my son, the light of my life. I cherish him so.

We need more photos! -
I just bought some Stephen King books. But I got the ones on sale for my Kindle. I got The Shining and November 1963 or something like that I think it's 11-22-63? However, I need a break from fiction so started reading Tiny Buddha's Guide to Loving Yourself 40 Ways to Transform. I love her website and receive her weekly emails. I just love the articles. Not sure what I'll read next.

Does this make me a pervert?

You should never be ashamed of something you enjoy (unless of course it's illegal/immoral). No, you are not a pervert. And if you date a woman who makes you feel like one for this interest, get rid of her immediately. You should always be true to yourself. -

Beautiful, but so small. I love photography. I bought my first DSLR last year and love learning how to use it. -
Thanks to you guys, I just added 5th Wave to my Amazon Wishlist. So my Kindle is full of books, my Wishlist is full of books, and I just added one more! UGH lol

No, I haven't. I can't read as much right now because I'm in school. I only had a week break from summer to fall. But after fall I should have a few weeks, so may be something to look forward to! My Kindle is PURE EVIL. Bad Bad Bad. LOL I downloaded the second book in the Breathing series as my Amazon Prime book for the month. Hopefully I can start reading it Wednesday (I have homework due tonight for my online class and class tomorrow is my regular class). The author is Rebecca Donovan. I really enjoyed the first book "Reason to Breathe (The Breathing Series Book 1)".

The fall - the crisp air, the yummy flavors, the changing leaves, BRING....IT....ON Travel - all of the places I want to see next year, the year after, and for the rest of my life My promotion/raise and child support award - more money to make memories with my son.

I recently read Inifinity + One. I couldn't get into it at first, then gave it a second shot a month later and am so glad I did. I also ready Barely Breathing. Now I'm reading Overeater's Anonymous. I have so many unread books on my Kindle, and others in my wishlist, I'll have to read a book every day in my retirement LOL.

1. The nice roof over my head 2. The clean clothes on my back 3. The yummy food in my belly. I know I usually take these things for granted, but I am humble enough to know that not everyone enjoys these luxuries. Knowing that my basic needs are met is a huge blessing and something to be grateful for.

I'm grateful to ENA, for being a tool in my toolbelt on my road to growth. I'm grateful for having a job. I'm grateful for the opportunity to go to school and get my Bachelor's Degree.

In twelve minutes it will be day ninety for me. So I'm posting now so I don't have to post tomorrow. Day ninety. Do it for you. For your sanity. For your happiness. Remain in no contact. In the beginning its hard, but as time goes by, you realize the focus changes from him/her, to you. I am now my sole focus (aside from my son). 3 months no contact, 4.5 months since break up. 7.5 more months of remaining single and focusing on me. Life is good.
-
Day 89, tomorrow is Day 90. We broke up, had limited contact, he made it sound like we woudl get back together, the limited contact was hurting me, so we broke up for good late May. Haven't contacted him or heard from him since. 89 days ago. After tomorrow I will stop counting and posting, but stick to NC.
-
Day 86. Four days until Day 90. This break up is about ME and becoming a wonderful person, and not about HIM.
-
Day 85. Since I only have 5 days to go to Day 90, I think I"ll begin counting daily again. 85 freeing days of focusing on me and my issues, and growing as a person. I've done so much in the nearly last three months. I've come a long wayQ
-
Day 84! Go me! In 6 days it will be day 90! Day 84 to a wonderful, strong, healthy Leigh.

Day 77 of healing, not from the break up, but from my childhood. Rich and I haven't spoken since we said our break up was final 77 days ago, and that Sunday I went to my first ACA meeting. I only missed one meeting because I made a commitment to go somewhere thinking it was a Saturday, not a Sunday. Day 77 to a wonderful and amazing new me. I've gained weight in my personal pity party since the break up. And I feel horrible about that. I can feel it and it's gross. I want to lose that weight, plus some more, then I will be ready for dating. I'm figuring it will take me a few months to get the weight off. I ate healthy Monday and mostly Tuesday, the only thing unhealthy yesterday was the fried chicken scampi for dinner, but I didn't have a large portion. I also had wine with a good friend Tuesday. Tonight I am going to sushi with another friend. Sushi is good for you and I'm really looking forward to it.

Day 73, Only 17 days until day 90. Going to an ACA meeting tomorrow after needing to miss last week's meeting.

We broke up for good on a Wednesday. The next morning I listed to Sara Evans "A Little Bit Stronger" in the shower and CRIED. I later cried at my desk at work. In the song she says something like It doesn't happen overnight, but you turn around and a month's gone by, and you realize you haven't cried. Wow, I can't believe that was two months ago. I posted daily for the first 30 days, then the last 33 days I switched to weekly on Wednesdays since that's the day we broke up. "Even on my weakest days, I get a little bit stronger." Stick to No Contact - IT WORKS.
-
One day shy of 8 weeks. And I have to say, although a small part of me misses him, I'm doing really really well. I have no intentions of contacting him or trying again. If he contacted me, I would talk to him/text him, but I'm in no spot right now to be in a relationship. I'm finally putting me first and doing the hard work to become the best me possible. Learning and growing feels soooooo good.
-
Wow, I had to go back and find my post a week ago to remember what day I'm at. Day 49, 7 weeks since we called it quits for good. We broke up mostly because of my Mom's prejudice, but it turns out we also had problems as individuals. We were trying to be "friends" and see where it goes - his words. Being friends was hurting too much. So we called it quits for good. I'm taking the time to be single and finally finally work on myself and my issues, so when the next man comes into my life, I'll be in a better place emotionally.
-
I decided posting daily was putting too much emphasis on the break up and NC, so decided to post weekly to keep myself accountable. Day 42. 6 weeks ago today we ended it for good, and that Sunday I started going to ACoA meetings. I'm on such a great path right now. Two days ago I had a weak moment and really wanted to text him to tell him I'm ready to be friends if he still wanted that, but I knew it was a crock. I was hoping being friends would open the door to reconciliation. Deep down inside I DO NOT want reconciliation. I'm on a one year journey to become the best woman I can, so when I'm ready to potentially find my life partner, I'll be in the best spot possible to do so.

5 weeks ago today we broke it up for good. I'm taking a year off of dating to work on me, and hopefully fix my lingering issues once and for all. I will continue posting here, but only weekly, until at least 90 days. I need to keep my motivation to not contact him.
