My weekend and the state of my mental health...

The weekend was marvelous!

Poker went well enough Saturday afternoon...by which I mean I played well but did not get very far (about 13th out of 30 or so); didn't even make the final table! :oP For me, playing well is more important than how far I get although I would have liked a repeat of one of the previous two weeks when I, 1) split first and second and won $140 and 2) finished 5th and got my $20 back. There's always this Saturday... :oD

Then Saturday night, we finally ventured out to see the boyfriend's (hereafter referred to as S) favourite local band...we've only been trying to see them since the first night we got back together, so this isn't bad (only 5 months later)! It was a lot of fun; there's nothing like live music to keep you up past your bedtime! Yes, that's JUST how old I am...S and I have not been out past midnight since we've been together either, unless we've been staying at a hotel and that doesn't really count! Just reserve our spots at Shady Pines now... ;o)

Spent all day Sunday lounging around...watched Confidence, which was pretty decent and ate pizza in my jammies. Although I heard it was a beautiful day weather-wise, I don't regret slacking for a second since I don't get enough time to do nothing these days and it was very relaxing.

Yesterday, I got the stamp of sanity from my therapist...okay, that's not true. I just graduated from getting free counselling to having to pay for them to tell me how crazy I am. When we were getting ready to wrap up the last of my five sessions regarding my issues with the split, Dr. Feelgood asks if I am still interested in continuing my work, as we had discussed the last time I was in (read: "I would strongly recommend that you DO!")...subtle, ain't he? lol He was careful to add that he felt that we had made good progress and he wished me luck in my continuing journey, as he handed me the number for the other place. I liked him...although he was kinda young and a little geeky, I do feel like he helped me figure out some important stuff. But I also feel like I need to delve a little deeper and that will take some therapy that lasts longer than a couple of sessions. So, I will make the call to get my brain back into therapy soon...in the meantime, I have this to read on his recommendation...should keep me busy, in between all the poker etc.!

But enough about me...how are YOU all doin'?
