Switch is still flipped

Almost a month later and the switch is still flipped. There is something comforting about that.

Work has been insane. I haven't felt like I can catch my breath in weeks. I'm even working over time this week to try and catch up. Today I feel a little less stressed but the work is still there. I keep thinking to myself I'm only one person. The girls from the local office seem to want to give me all the work they were covering and I'm not up here full time yet. So I'm feeling a little overwhelmed.

No time to flirt. No time to bullshit with Obsession. That could be part of the reason the switch is still flipped. But our conversations are still good. There's just not such an urgency to reach out to him. Though this morning I called him at work to find out how his Superbowl weekend was. He went to Vegas with the family. We BS'd a little. He asked when I was gonna be down again. Turns out tomorrow he's not going to be in the same office. So I won't see him all week. Though luckily I've talked to him a couple of times. But really the lack of urgency is the biggest change. I used to lose sleep, heart racing, constant thinking about him. He still pops into my head more than most people but nothing like it was.

Every morning I've been putting on the Full Armor of God. In the part of the Shield of Faith my prayer goes over my current temptations. Obsession, Gluttony and Lack of Organization at work have been my constant prayer since I started. Obsession and Lack of Organization is getting better. I'm currently still working on gluttony. But I hope to make some progress this month and start a new program once I can afford the groceries. Right now I'm just cutting back on sugar, trying to avoid carbs, drinking my water and taking vitamins. So we'll see how it goes.

Things are going well with my Husband Creature. He and I have been getting along really well. Last night he was edgy but I think we were both really tired. But we have some time Friday. My parents are going to pick up my Stinker Creature and keep him for a few hours. So I'm looking forward to having time with my Husband Creature. Cuddle time without a little person trying to get in the middle.

Last night I was watching Grimm and ironically the episode occurred on February 5th, 2016 which was exactly 3 years prior. Then, I see "the actor" as an extra on the show! I was blown away. I got all excited! I couldn't believe it. I was pointing him out to my Husband Creature and then realized, oh weird. I had sex with that guy. Did I tell my husband that?! lol It was awkward. I suddenly got quiet and blushed... Not sure why. It was well before I met Husband Creature but it felt awkward being so excited to see someone on tv and then remembering I'd slept with them! lol
