    I love wine in the bath! @snoopy128 I got this one for Christmas last year:http://www.amazon.ca/Bamboo-Bathtub-Extending-ToiletTree-Products/dp/B006WBPVNW/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1444756369&sr=8-5&keywords=bath+caddy+bamboo. I’m pretty sure my husband ordered it off amazon.ca (I’m in AB). I love it and it’s totally worth the money. It would definitely work in a fairly wide soaker tub.

    Oooh, good idea, snoopy. I make a little juice/sparkling water combo mostly. And I do occasionally have a glass of wine or beer.
    I’ve always wanted a bath caddy, especially when I used to read actual books in the tub, but now I use the kindle app. I do wish more electronic devices could be near water without certain death. I have a iPad 2 and use a big ziplock. Very classy! I probably should just get a waterproof case.

    I’m not a fan of bath/shower and alcohol. I easily get overheated in a bath/shower (in fact, I can’t take baths anymore because of that). I’m perfectly content to get out of the shower, and have a glass of chilled sauvignon blanc.

    The guy that sexually assaulted me sent me a request on linked in today. I blocked his phone number and deactivated facebook 3 years ago. And after this weekend with my friend’s fiance joking about it, the guy reaches out to me. I had a panic attack and am now finishing the work day from home. (My boss isn’t in my state, so I told her I wasn’t feeling well and asked if I could work from home the rest of the day). Just not thrilled with the last couple of days. I have some fun stuff planned for this weekend fortunately.

    ugh, Kare…I am so sorry. I am pissed off at your shitty friend and her fiance all over again. I hope you can take it easy the rest of the day and do something good for yourself tonight – maybe a nice long walk or something active to get your blood moving.

    Kare, that’s fucking insane. I’m so sorry you have to deal with assholes like this!

    Lianne’s is right. Do something for you today. Internet hugs.

    Kare, I think you can block people on LinkedIn, you just have to google it. It’s okay, today will be okay. Just breathe, relax, and know that he cannot do anything to you anymore. He’s a pathetic loser.

    Go to a nice restaurant or something to pamper yourself. When my emotionally abusive and manipulative ex-hubs contacted me a year and a half after successful no contact (in which time I had to file for a restraining order – which got denied but it sent a strong message), I had a panic attack at work too. I took a break, went down to starbucks, and enjoyed a nice caramel macchiato to calm myself. Do not give him that power to hurt you again.

    I couldn’t sit still at work because it made me feel worse, so I walked down the stairs (no way was I doing the elevator), walked around a few blocks, then walked back up the stairs. It helped some, but I feel a lot better now that I’m at home. I have some spreadsheets to update, but fortunately I had no meetings this afternoon.

    I blocked him on linked in. Also, I got an alert that the fiance of my ex boyfriend (who still works in my office). It made me laugh because her profile picture is a mirror selfie with dollar bills watermarked over it. What are people thinking when they put stuff on linked in? She’s the body rub girl he proposed to two months after enlisting her services.

    I meant to say I got an alert that his fine viewed my profile. My mind is still all over the place apparently.

    I may go get a pedicure after work…hmmm…

    8 years after I left my horrible ex and I still worry whenever I’m around an army base. He’d left the army long before I met him but because I see so many guys that resemble him physically my brain tries to trick me that he got back in and posted to where we are. Silly me for marrying another army guy! Definitely spoil yourself and do your best to forget that jerk.
