Weekend in review
Good morning ladies,
I hope you all had a nice weekend. I definitely did. Friday night after work I went shopping with some girlfriends. I ended up spending about $400 on new clothes. Now I still need to buy some new shoes and also just make a point to pick up a nice shirt, pair of shorts, here and there. I don't really like shopping that much so I tend to "binge-shop". I love all my new purchases. After shopping we went to Montana's for dinner. I had the Southwest Salad and changed the steak to shrimp and it was so yummy. I LOVE using salsa and guac as dressing. I'm happy I tried it out because it was really tasty.
Saturday I woke up, made the bf and myself some breakfast, sat out on the patio and read a bit and then tidied the house. My girlfriend Chrissy who was in from out of town so she stopped by to see our place and meet my kitten. After she left I took it easy for a few hours and then got ready to go out. We went out to a bar, I got pretty drunk, danced a bunch, it was awesome.
Sunday morning I wasn't feeling all that hot but slept it off and was fine. I had soccer at 4pm, then had to rush home and get ready for dinner. We took our Mom to a restaurant at the Casino. It was really good.
Last night I was feeling oddly emotional and cried for the first time in a long time. I had my period for the past week and it had ended Saturday. Originally, my bf and I had essentially "planned" to wake up and have sex that morning. That didn't happen for one reason or another. Then we were hoping to do it Saturday night when he got home from shift, but I was already asleep by then. Sunday he had training at 12 noon and I wasn't feeling great, so he had mentioned before he left on Sunday that he thought he would be done by 10ish. He mentioned he may go for a drink at the Association but I still mentally prepared myself for him to be home at a decent time. I showered, shaved and was very much anxiously awaiting for the door to open. At about 11:35pm when he wasn't home yet, I decided to send him a message just to see if I should wait up or head to bed, he sent me back a sweet note just saying he wasn't quite done yet so I should go to bed. I am very much used to having lots of intimate time with my bf, but since I had just had my period for a week and I'm slowly getting used to his shift work (living together and barely seeing each other), I just broke down. Never for a second did I feel he did anything wrong, I just needed some intimate attention and was a baby about it. I wasn't able to fall asleep until he got home. We chatted a bit, he felt so bad that I couldn't sleep but that is on me. I need to learn to be able to sleep without him there or I will not survive the shift work schedule. He was so sweet and caressed me, kissed me, kept saying sorry but that it is something he has to do (hang out with the guys at the Association), he explained that the guys that don't get a bit of a rep and believe me, I get it. We actually ended up having sex last night (or should I say this morning, 2:30am) and it was amazing.
I was able to live without him for 3 months but am finding it hard working very opposite schedules and only being together while sleeping for multiple days. I know I'll adjust, just hope it happens sooner rather than later. I sound like a huge baby, I know.
Today's Intake:
B- Coffee + 1 egg + grapefruit [X]
S- All bran bar [X]
L- Salad + 1/2 orange pepper [X]
S- An apple [ ]
D- Shawarma [ ]
Have an amazing day ladies. Sorry for my rant.. xo

I love shopping, when I'm at school I barely shop but once I'm out, I do some binge shopping as you put it. I agree, salsa and guac is delicious on a salad!
I would have broken down and been a baby, it happens. You're used to one thing and a new thing takes time, like you said. You have an amazing bf, you're a luck girl.
@MakeshiftGates - Thanks!! I'm feeling much better today, even though I didn't get much sleep. I know I'm super lucky which makes me feel even worse when something small like this gets to me. He's very understanding though. I don't often let my emotions get the better of me, so that's good.
@justahabit - He handled it so well. We chatted an hour or so ago and I explained again that I was sorry I got upset last night and that I wanted him to know that I will need to get adjusted to the new schedule (ie. it is on me), the last thing I want is for him to feel like I'm upset when he goes to Association events or gets home later than expected from work. He understands this is a transitional period for us both and it will take some time.
haha binge shop that's a good way to put it! I am the same! Aww you will adjust to work schedule eventually, its okay to get emotional once in a while. post a pic of your kitten! I loovee them i bet it's adorable!
lol binge shopping sounds like so much fun. When I was on the team they gave me $500 to spend on clothes... shopping was never more enjoyable.
I know this may come off offensively, but you guys and your sex life fascinates me. I'm so used to me and my boyfriend only being intimate once maybe twice a week and being fine with it. (although having roommates really puts a damper on it lol) Again, I don't mean that to come off offensively. anyway, it's kind of understandable to get emotional like that and you shouldn't feel like a baby. I don't see it as anything either or you did because there was reasons from both sides. I'm glad you guys are able to be open and honest and talk about things like that with each other. Adjustments can be hard but you guys will get there! you have an amazing relationship and you have what it takes to get through pretty much anything (especially after living apart for so long) you guys have such a strong relationship it's incredible. =]
@isitreal_no - Thanks!! I'm already feeling better today, I think I was just having a bad day Sunday night. I'll post a couple pictures today :)
@xxrunningamuckXx - I'm not offended at all. I've never been in a relationship that has such an intimate side to it. With my ex by the time we had been together 2+ years, we did it once a week or so and that worked for both of us. I also think roomates definitely play a factor. I don't know how to explain it, but the sex isn't just about the sex, I just feel very connected when we do it. I feel so silly about my rant because I feel a million times better today, but thanks for all the encouraging words!!
