So I did two things yesterday that I wasn't sure if I could do. First, I took my little sister to the fair with a few friends. My little sister isn't so little but she'd never been to the fair, so now she has (not a fan of rides it turns out ). Second, I actually went on a date. I have no intentions of anything serious but it's nice to casually see someone, I had a good time. I didn't think I'd like it, to be honest. I thought that I wouldn't be able to get over my ex, but I managed to keep my mind off of him.

So, I guess I've succeeded this weekend. I'm trying to look at more positives about myself and my life, so I decided to write this post versus a negative one (though I'm sure I'll need to vent again soon).

Thanks for everyone's words and hugs. This safe place is a good one, I appreciate you all being a part of it.
