Bumps and Bruises... cont. (as well as Sunburned)

I was re-reading my post from last week and realized that I may need to go a little more in depth to what I wrote.... The shock to my system that I referred to last week came from finding out that my wasband has gotten remarried. I didn't hear it from him directly but when I questioned him about it (via text message), he didn't deny it either. I guess I don't know why I expected him to be honest since he's lied to me before (he promised me "forever" and that we wouldn't end things in divorce). Oh, well. What's done is done....... I can choose to dwell on what I can't change or move on. I am going to try and move on... It hurts but I'm still going to try and move on...

The sunburn comes in from going with a friend to a flea market today. I did something unlike me and wore a sundress but forgot to put on sunscreen.... At least, at this moment, it doesn't hurt but I'm sure it will be a little tender come tomorrow (especially when I don't wear a sundress to work). I did get some really neat (and inexpensive) jewelry for belly dancing. I also got some awesome material to create a "wall" (thanks for the suggestion, Mom) to cover some of my boxes. =)

Mom suggested that I either use a tension rod or some PVC pipe to create a fabric "wall" to add some color to my white apartment as well as cover some of the boxes that I still have in my apartment (due to lack of space). I'm actually looking forward to the project - I don't have a solid idea of how I'm going to create my new "wall" but I'm excited about the creative process. It will at least give me a new project. =)

I had thought at one point of getting on of those room dividing screens but decided my dogs might crash into it and knock it over. That would be a bad thing... With my luck it would either land on one (or both) of the dogs when it fell over or it would fall on me. Hanging a piece of fabric is a little less of a safety issue (unless I fall off of the ladder when hanging it). =)

At least I have a reason to work on straightening up my apartment - - I found out this past week that one of my brothers wants to come visit me! =) With his visit, I'm hoping to actually get some time off of work (I've been working where I do for two years this past April and I've only taken about 2 1/2 days off - the day after my wasband left me, the day after I got divorce papers and 1/2 a day for court). It'll be nice to take time off for something that is "fun." I joked with him that I might have a box that he can sleep on. =)

I'm excited too about when he's coming since he'll get to see me dance - a solo and then dances with the troupe. We have talked about the dances that we are going to perform as a group and I know all but one at this point. Him coming is going to be motivation for me to work on that dance. =)

Well, since I went to a belly dance party yesterday (it was a birthday party for one of the gals I dance with) and spent most of today at the flea market, I should probably work on my lesson plan for this upcoming week.... Hope everyone has a spectacular week! =) Also, Happy Father's Day to all of the Dad's out there; especially to my Dad!! =)
