Sunday Morning Update

So...in my world, a lot has happened. In a nutshell, I met a really great guy who became totally smitten with me but who also was only here for a limited time and is now headed back to Nova Scotia until December, most likely.  He made reference a few times to me coming to Nova Scotia before then for a visit and how it would be awesome if we are both single when he gets back and if that's the case he'd love to get together again.

I am back in contact with the friend of a friend again. His ex girlfriend is not coming after all and they are not going to try again. I have mixed feelings about this. I was just starting to feel alive again and move past it when all of this came about. The feelings are still there and I want to take the opportunity and explore the connection the way we couldn't before, but I am also somewhat hesitant and perhaps a little resentful of the way everything unfolded. I'm being cautious and trying to keep a guard on my heart for now. We have to get together and talk about some things and I guess we'll see what happens from there.

AND in other news: I finally have a job!!!!! :D Well...it's only a two month replacement, but it's a start! It's unfamiliar territory, as well, in a lot of ways...so it's scary, stressful and exciting all at once. Fingers crossed I will survive and thrive and it will lead to bigger and better adventures and other employment opportunities...

  1. First of all BG, congrats on the job. Who knows, two months can turn into four, which can turn into a year…that’s kind of what happened to me.

    Secondly, on the romantic front (and who am I to say) let things play out. You’ll know what to do and when to do or not to do it.

    All the best.

  2. Thanks Chris! It's the end of a mat leave, so I don't think it will turn into longer, but there's always other opportunities after the fact ;) And I am trying to do as you have also suggested and take it as it comes and navigate it as I see fit...If the past year or so has taught me anything it's that anything can happen and, bad as it may sound, if things don't work out, there's always someone else ;) Hope all is well in your world! :)
