Quick check in because my Internet is down at the office so now I have time to take a break. The stars were starting to line up and I was able to write 3 today and put one off until the end of the month. I should write 1 more this evening. I also got calls from 2 referrals from 2 different happy clients!

Thanks ladies! I wrote 1 more. That makes four for the day.
Tori, That's a tough spot to be in. I'd just explain the situation to him (although it sounds like you already have) and if he's still pissed, then let him leave mad. If you can't calm him down just say that you need to know where you stand with him b/c you'd like to know if you should bring one of your "loser" exes down with you to Mardi Gras or pick up another "loser" while you're down. That should shut him up and then you'd have the last word. Problem solved! Once agin, I'm glad I could help.

If anyone is trying to figure out how to read Tori's rant, it's typed in a white font. Just hilight it with your cursor. We usually put rants and food porn in white in case someone doesn't want to read it. It's not required we just tend to do it from time to time.

Oh man Tori, what an awful position to be in. You are right, and it is incredible how well you understand the situation, he needs to learn to appreciate that.
At this point I'd say the ball is in his court. If when he arrives this weekend he is contrite and apologetic, he might be a keeper. If he is still angry and can't be calmed down even with gentle suggestions... you might think twice. Time often heals this kind of things, but if time isn't enough for him to reflect on his behavior, if it were me, I'd be a little leary.

Kay He’s beautiful or should I say handsome he looks so chilled and your cat is very cute also. I think kaya will have similar coloring she’s got some light tan in between her ears and just above her tail that will probably darken as she ages.
Mike Glad to hear work is going so well. Good job on getting in some miles I have discovered that walking my puppy although slow helped my clock an additional 2k today.
Tori I am sorry about your unfortunate man phone call I hope you feel better soon and stay away from ice cream it just makes you feel worse after and trust me this is from personal emotional eating experiences. Your cat has nail polish on, oh my I have never seen such a thing I will show my dd in the morning she is the cat lover in our house and I bet she’s never seen such a thing either, is it expensive to do it? Does your cat actually behave for this to be done? When you said she was pulling of caps I thought it had to do with trimming her nails not from a kitty spa day.
Goals:
Walk 25k: M=3.1k, T=6.2k, W=2.2k, T= 8.3k
Exercise 5 days: M=Walk, T=Hike, W=Walk, T=Hike
Squats 5 days: M=N, T=Y, W=Y, T=Y
Ab work 5 days: M=N, T=Y, W=Y, T=N
Calories less than 1400: M=1183, T=1309, W=995, T=1139
Calorie deficit of 5000 for week: M=-689, T=-702, W=-906, T=-946
No sugar: M=N(cinnamon hearts), T=Y, W=Y, T=N(cinnamon hearts, tempting little tasty hearts of sugar)
