Proud of Myself!

/ living in chicago, ronni, yay

Today marked a major milestone for me. Actually, a couple.

As regular readers know, I have been nervous about driving in Chicago. I drive an average of one mile a week, and that’s to the grocery store and ALDI. Adam’s always been with me.

Today, I drove out to the suburbs, by myself, and I used the highway. It was easy once I got back in the groove. I think I also missed a lot of the heavy rush hour. And Chicago drivers aren’t quite as scary as the cab drivers. Still scary, though. Way more aggressive than in Ohio. Eek.

Still, I’m proud. I made it. YAY.

Tomorrow, I will reward myself with McDonalds for lunch. 🙂

You do not experience strong, irresistible cravings and consequently do not find yourself tempted to overindulge, however you experience panic, confusion, and helplessness when under pressure or stress. You lead a leisurely and relaxed life. You would prefer to sit back and smell the roses than indulge in high energy activities. You prefer dealing with either people or things rather than ideas. You regard intellectual exercises as a waste of your time. You are tenderhearted and compassionate, feeling the pain of others vicariously and are easily moved to pity, however you believe that a certain amount of deception in social relationships is necessary. You are guarded in new relationships and less willing to openly reveal the whole truth about yourself. You are not an overly cautious person. You will think about alternatives and consequences but make up your mind fairly quickly.

Full of Fail?

/ ronni, sad

Today wasn’t a good day for me. I feel like a failure for reasons I don’t even want to talk about. Just know that I was very tempted to crawl back into bed and cry the rest of the day away. And I just shut down my 1001 in 101 site because I realized that most of my goals were never going to be realized. Maybe I’ll make a new list and do it again someday, or just heavily revise my current list. That makes the most sense, then I can keep my achieved goals on it and not feel like such a loser.

The good things about today were talking to Aidan on the phone, the yummy dinner Adam made, and the love and support both of my favorite curly-headed guys give me. Today, Aidan and I were playing the “make fart noises with our mouths and blame the other game” and he told me that I was stinking up Chicago. That was funny. And America’s Next Top Model was on, so that was OK too.

So today wasn’t all that horrible. But interally, I’m still struggling with things. *sigh* Send good thoughts my way, please?
