sick as a dog...
So I have the WORST cough/cold EVER! It really sucks to come home to an empty place and sleep by myself. I've been getting used to it tho. I HARDLY slept for the first couple of days. I also didn't eat much. I normally did all the cooking, but it really sucks to cook just for one.
On a good note, I've been able to put in the hours that I've NEEDED into work. I've been offered the chance to go to interviews that will put me on a bench to get my own store. With that comes A LOT of time and energy into meetings, helping other people out AND still being able to be at my store. This week alone, I've pulled TWO days where I go to work at 8am and did not leave until 11pm.
A part of me feels that I could never have done this if I was with someone. I don't think there is anyone out there that will understand how much I actually have to put into my job. When I finally get my own store, THAT will be when I can work the five hour days....but right now, it's too difficult to juggle a relationship and any potential promotions for me.
This experience is really forcing me to know how to be alone. I'm learning how to start liking my own company again. My house has also never been cleaner!
