2.5 Months - staying the course
Happy Thursday, friends.
Big news for DD30. She finally met her boyfriend's parents and it couldn't have gone better. Her company builds batteries for missiles and the BF's mother asked her "Is that bad for the babies?" LOLOL If that's not an endorsement, I don't know what is. DD30 has been given the greenlight to visit the parent's house anytime, but only the first floor! LMFAO. And BF's dad is coming to our house Sunday to install a Tesla charger at cost. They have really welcomed her with open arms. Both DD30 and BF are very relieved.

2 Month Milestone
This week was the 2 month anniversary of the breakup. Still no contact and not looking to see what he's up to. I'm no longer tempted to peek at his ridiculous dating profile.

Another Strange "Coincidence"
Friday I got a notice that a movie had been rented on my Amazon Prime account. I texted my DD30 first since we live together. She didn't do it. I asked my sons but I kinda already knew they didn't have access to my Prime Video account. Wasn't them.
While there is a slight chance I used my Amazon Prime somewhere at an airbnb, I am fairly certain it was my XBF because I know for sure I logged into it on his TV.

Checking In
DD30 starts her new job on Monday. She's been making the most of her last week of joblessness.
I had a nice 4-day weekend and went on a road trip with a good friend. We just meandered down to North Carolina to go to a brewery with a naughty name in honor of my dear friend who died 2 years ago in December. Said friend's birthday is this coming Sunday, so she's on my mind.
We had such a blast.
It's been almost 7 weeks since the breakup with zero communication. I also stopped looking at XBF's dating profile nearly a month ago (tomorrow).

FINALLY - good news Monday
My DD30 has a job!!
She had a written job offer in-hand on Friday and was due to accept or decline today at 12:30. As she was about to hit "send" to let them know she was accepting she got an email from the big fancy company (remote job, more money) asking if she was free for a phone call. She let them know that her window was only the next 30 minutes. After 15 mins, she went ahead and sent the email accepting the offer from the small company. Big company called a few minutes later to let her know they went with someone else. *whew*

Happy Friday
It's been a rough week. Maybe it's menopause - not sure - but I've been pretty weepy and blue this week.
I hate it that I had a spell of missing my XBF. I used ALL the techniques to remind myself why I walked away. Logically, it all makes sense. Emotionally, I guess I was just going through a phase of missing his presence and all of the good things. I've shaken it off and today is a better day.

Coincidence or not?
Fellow tech sleuths, help me out.
I'm in IT Security. I mainly do compliance but my background is in forensics with a side of hacking, and even this one has me perplexed.

Tying up loose ends
Still waiting until the 27th to find out if my daughter is going to be offered the job she's worked so hard interviewing for. Keep crossing those fingers.
Today, on my way to the big city, I stopped by my attorney's office to sign off on a new medical power of attorney and advanced directive to remove my XBF and add my DS33. My DD30 was already listed, so it was just a quick swap. Best $50 I've spent all year!!
Sunday will be a month since we broke up and it's getting better every day. I'm looking forward to the days when I don't think about him at all.

BIG Interview Friday
I have been kicked out of my home office so that my DD30 can give a presentation to a BIG International company. Their interview process is notoriously lengthy. There are 6 phases and within the last phase, six parts. The presentation and interview with a panel of interviewers is the final stage. She was required to write a research paper and turn in her presentation before this last bit.
