The End of Another Chapter

Another chapter of my life has come to a close and I'm not sure how I feel. Several years ago I re-connected with an old high school boyfriend and we became friends again. But, after many ups and downs, it came time to say goodbye again. The first time, there were no goodbyes, he just disappeared in the horizon. Today it was my time to say goodbye. I'm not sure who handled it better, him disappearing 22 years ago or me telling him to go f*$# himself. Yes, those were my exact words. Probably not the best choice, but it got the point across. The relationship had become toxic and unfortunately he began reading way too much into everything. I felt that the best thing to do was to move on and I know it is definitely the best thing for him. It's too bad it came to that and I will miss him, but we will both be better off in the long run - especially him. He held some deep resentment against me that didn't come to light until this morning. I can't believe I didn't see it before, but the moment it surfaced, the light bulb went on and everything made sense. All I can say is, "Goodbye Rob. I'll miss you."

On a lighter note, last Friday I called the doctor and I was on hold waiting for my OB/GYN to pick up when the nurse got on the line. "Susan?" she asked. "Yes," I replied. "We got the results and they are positive. The numbers, however, are low and the doctor would like to see you next week." WHAT?????? Having had 2 children, one being a high risk pregnancy that followed a miscarriage, I knew exactly what she was talking about. PREGNANT? I don't think so!! I told her why I was holding for the doctor and she apologized. What are the odds that there are 2 Susans on hold at the same time? I was dying. Being the smart ass that I am, I couldn't wait to share the news with everyone. It sure was funny to see the looks on the faces of my friend at work, my mom, and my son. DH just said, "Well, if you are, we have bigger problems!" Didn't even phase him. My son just kept snickering. I wish I had video of that. It cracked me up.

Oh yeah - I worked out today. 13,000+ pounds and 2.5 miles on the elliptical machine. Go Sue!
