Valentines Day
6
Wed, 02-14-2007 - 5:58am

Well it's Valentines Day and here I am ALONE. It really sucks! At least I made it out of bed even with the gigantic pit in my stomach. It's a start. We got a lot of snow yesterday and freezing rain yesterday afternoon and last night so the road were going to be horrible but I AM GOING TO WORK... I cannot stay here at home and feel sorry for myself. At least when I go to work I have something to do.

All I can think about is that he's with another girl (which I know is true) and he'll be doing something with her tonight. I can't stand it and it just eats my heart right up.
I know I'm going to have a meltdown at work today and my poor friends will need to pick me up off the ground. Gosh I wish this was easier. C'mon it's just a day (a regular Wed right) no big deal. Okay so I don't get a Valentines Day card, flowers, a special dinner, or get to cuddle up with anyone tonight. So what! I have me and my beautiful dog and I know she give me unconditional love. Somehow I'll get thru this I know and then tomorrow is another day. (cry cry cry--- okay get up and get to work)

Man, I know how you feel. Just a week and a half in to the break up and I don't know how I'm going to make it thru today. I start a new job in a week so currently I'm not working. Everywhere you go you see Valentine's crap. I can't spend 8 hours on the treadmill! What should I do? This just has to get easier.

I definately can relate! Today is two weeks since my husband left me. I know I am going to lose it at work today. Just the bad thing is that I am a teacher, and I don't get much alone time. I have got to hold it together in front of my students. If one of them asks what my husband got me for Valentines, what am I supposed to say. These are 12-13 year olds, and they can usually tell when you are lying.

Go see a movie. That's what I am doing. I was going to go by myself, but a friend at work asked if I wanted to do anything since her husband is out of town. So we are going to go school supply shopping, have dinner, and see the new Drew Barrymore movie.

I am going to make it though today, right. Just another Wednesday.

I know just how you feel. I keep thinking the same things that you do. At least my guy is with someone else and is happy, and they are together. Good for them....but what about me? :-( At least I have my precious cat who will be right by my side tonight.

It is JUST another Wednesday!! Say it with me...It is JUST another Wednesday! Now if I could believe that too... Sigh...

We will get through this day...somehow..someway

I called my sister this morning (we don't live in the same state) and I had a little tear jerker on the phone with her. She assured me that I'd be fine and tomorrow is another day. Man I can't wait until tomorrow! But when tomorrow comes then that is just one day closer to the long, lonely weekend... I so don't look forward to that. I think i have plans for Friday but Sat is my problem. Geez who actually looks forward to going to work...ME.

I know I'll be fine and I'm just more upset b/c of the day and b/c I recently found out he's seeing another girl who is all I love you sooo much to him. How can they be in the I love you stage when we just broke up 6 wks ago. I think they must have been seeing each other before but he would never admit it to me. I'm sooo sad but like the rest of you I can't fall apart at work.
