Never did I think I'd be where I am today but there is no better time to start over than the present. Here are some reflections and fun tidbits from the last ten days.
-Food shopping for yourself is awesome and easy. So is calorie counting. It's hard to eat cookies when there aren't any in the house.
-I made instant coffee this morning and I am still alive to talk about it.
-I didn't realize I was homeless until I had to order a gift on Amazon and had nowhere to ship it. I know how to get to my friend's house but not its official location.
-I have been away from Remi for extended periods of time many times before. However, I was always traveling and doing something out of the ordinary. Not having him around during my actual life and work week is weird!
-My kid was shocked to have a washer/dryer IN my friend's apartment. He couldn't fathom how that's possible since we've always had to get quarters and walk to another building to wash our clothes.
-Half of the things I want to grab and think I need are in storage. But I know I don't need them that badly since I haven't driven to storage to pick anything up.
-One produces a lot less trash and dirty dishes if all that's eaten are salads (1 of each in an entire week).
-My friends are awesome. They don't tire of me (well, they don't let on anyway) of me talking about how excited and scared I am and always let me go on and on as I try to figure this out.
-Roku is odd but HuluPlus is my new BFF. Yay for Shark Tank and Dancing with the Stars laptop marathons.
-I'm a hit with 70 and 50 year olds at Latino clubs (but I already knew that).
-I have a lot more to learn about logistics of co-parenting and will do so in time.
