Unknown Future

Laura McDaniel posted an article on - May 17, 2010, 1:42 pm
No job, not sure where we are going or what I will do?!!  Made my poor daughter cry with anxiety this weekend, but only because I don't have answers for her or myself.  What I thought was a potential opportunity to move back to the south (Vegas this time) and stay with nephew, doesn...

An evening of passion with Jon Secada

Laura McDaniel posted an article on - May 9, 2010, 10:17 am
I woke up this morning realizing that I can still find passion and joy in my life even during what feels like there is none. Yesterday, Saturday, I awoke with a terrible headache that had continued from the night before. But my own self pity and loathing attitude contributed to its onset. I...

Pity Party

Laura McDaniel posted an article on - May 5, 2010, 2:05 am
Although I had an interview this morning (a referral from a former co-worker) which was a nice surprise, I came home still feeling sorry for myself. It hit me when I also heard that the feeling I had why I was let go was that the CFO wanted an old assistant for my position, it had me feeling ...

My married man

Laura McDaniel posted an article on - Apr 22, 2010, 9:34 am
Why is it that my married man can give me so much more insight and happiness then what I'm capable of finding in the single one?  It's my own fault, I know but I guess I'm at THAT divorce stage where I'm questioning every stupid thing I do and say in dating. But married man is...

Following the fog...

I was so proud of myself for getting off my butt after the beautiful fog dissolved into the city and I put on those great Reebok shoes daughter got me for Christmas (which I do wear all the time) but this one was for a MAJOR mind clearing walk/hike/little jog.  This one was to clear the fog in ...

Foggy Sunday morning

Laura McDaniel posted an article on - Apr 18, 2010, 10:14 am
This beautiful dense fog moved over the city this morning and it looked so serene and beautiful.  At the earliest part you could barely see the city below my deck and as I lay in bed and looked out the side window, I couldn't even see the city skyline. I eventually jumped up to take so...

Closer to another birthday!

I hate to say it, but somehow THIS coming birthday is making me feel a lot older and a bit scared.  It's going to be my first birthday as a single woman again - legally.  I'm in a new job, new home and I'm still trying to find myself. But my body is starting to show signs of ...

Although I wanted to enjoy the weekend as much as I had in the last few days - regrettably it didn't go that way!  Even with Saturday being a beautiful weather day. Friday night I went to the play - Fences with (Mr. Blue Eyes) and was looking forward to the evening.  The play ende...

Wednesday night - 1.5 hours of Tango lessons (Tango Earth), sadly my partner was a very sweaty creepy guy, so I've chosen not to continue... but had fun with the instructor, who was very complimentary on my form and what I already knew.  Especially since my neck and back had been hurting, e...

Nicknames - sometimes cute and sometimes necessary!

Laura McDaniel posted an article on - Mar 23, 2010, 12:45 am
First off it was a very odd Monday - I guess I shouldn't have expected the weekend to roll into a good day.  Daughter still very sick, slept with me to keep an eye on here - which meant I got no sleep.  Then when I came home to bring her some soup & crackers, she 'lost it' ON m...

After noting that my mom was a little 'depressed' yesterday and my poor daughter was still sick this morning, I took a moment while (daughter) was still asleep to go and pick her up some flowers at the Fremont market.  Unfortunately the only bouquets looked the same as the one...

It's not taken me long to realize that the Other Woman proceeds me - she IS who I am and who I will be. I'm best at being the support, the one who makes things happen, the one others know they can rely on.  I am NOT just the wife, NOT just the mistress and  NOT ...
