Set up my own matrix instance!
just got a nice nap for about 30 minutes before my kids woke me up.
My wife and I had been trying for a child. Then she left me 2 weeks ago.
The best thing that happened to me this week was finding out she's not pregnant.
Also, instead of despair or grief over the separation, literally all I feel is relief.
Thats really tough, man. Im glad youre holding up okay for now. I'm happy for you to have dodged the baby bullet as well :)
It hit me like a semi truck, cause shit went sideways out of nowhere within 2 weeks.
But she's moved out without a fuss, our finances are separate, and I kept the cats.
Still kind of numb, but I also massively enjoy the quiet and relaxation right now.
The marriage was exciting, but it was also a constant whirlwind.
Nothing crazy, but my dog fractured a tooth and I was very worried he would either have to have it pulled or have a big ugly titanium crown put on, at great expense. He went to the vet today for it and it turns out the fracture wasn't as bad as I thought. No root canal and crown necessary. They shaved down the sharp parts, sealed it with resin and he's good to go now! I'm unbelievably relieved and it cost less than expected. Easily the best thing that's happened this week.
And tomorrow I'm going camping with my dog and some friends too! That should be a fun time. It's unseasonably warm and while I wish it were cold, I'm going to enjoy the nice weather while we have it!
I got a couple thou in the mail from Starbucks as restitution for violating my rights as a worker. For once in my life the law actually protected me to some degree so thats pretty nice
My MIL's surgery went well and she's much more lively and relaxed now, thank God.
I met my newborn nephew
Deadlifted 150 kgs (330 lbs) for reps this morning. Not a huge amount, but still nice. Other than that, a pretty uneventful week so far. Spring is just around the corner.
Congratulations! Thats a milestone all the same! Just remember, way less people are fit than you think. Probably the vast majority of people couldnt do what you just did! Be proud! Youre kicking butt on your fitness journey!!
