In my other life, I actually dress quite professionally...most days. Other days, like today, I have decided that I can wear very nice dress slacks with a pocket v neck T. I never said this had to make sense to you. And Tuesdays are my short days in the office, I have three standing appointments stacked and don't usually make it in until 11:45/50. Back to the original subject. I used to always wear heels at the office, regardless of it being a 15 or 16 hour day, I was in heels for almost all of it. And then I started training more and more. And heels became more and more of pain in my ass. And so the height got shorter. I used to wear 4 inch heels most days and then I quickly migrated to 1 and now Im at flats. And more than half of the pants in my closet only work with 4 inch heels. So instead of taking the time to get them hemmed, I wore the other 15 or so pairs on regular rotation. But those 15 pairs are a size 10 and seriously do not fit. So I finally got my act together and asked a coworker who does tailoring to do them. Its all about the convenience factor and finding the time to get that many pants hemmed is no small undertaking in my day of planned 15 minute increments. And now I have my first pair back. And my oh my, how I have missed my pants. Already excited to get the rest of them back.
So I have thought about this for a while. Do I actually write this post? Do I put my dirty laundry out there for everyone? Or the handful that read my blog. And if I do, what do I say? Do I slam those involved? Do I take the high road? When is a “good” time to put it out there? A few days under my belt and there is probably no better time. So no secret, my ex-boyfriend was my coach. That worked out mildly well while we were together but add a breakup and somehow it just doesn’t work out as smoothly. Add a few of the worst things a person could do to another in there and disaster doesn’t even begin to describe. But I have this eternal belief that I can make any situation work. That I can fix things. It’s what makes me good at my job. I’m an eternal optimist. But it’s what causes me to not be so good at my personal life. Even when things are clearly not good, I still think I can fix it and make it right...
