I miss playing softball. Too many years of playing catcher caught up with my knees... Ooofdah!

I am thinking of joining a bowling league. I miss that too.

Yeah, I only just heard about it. They have softball, basketball, dodgeball, etc too. You could sign up with a team of friends or individual..I signed up individual to meet new people.

I considered playing softball, never played it, but grew up playing baseball. Forgot you were playing Grizz..you guys won your first couple right?

We did. We are 5-1 now. I only knew two people on our team prior to playing. It is a great way to meet some new people.

Hey PS,

Updates...

Short Term:

- Walking the dog twice a day. Have joined a sports and social club that starts on the 27th. May buy a bike this weekend.
- Joined sports and social club. Will soon have opportunity to work in new office for company I work for, will let me meet new people.
- Learning the ropes of paying all the household bills now for myself. Also meeting with my Financial Planner to make short and long term adjustments based on new salary (job above) and commitments to W.
- Being the best Dad I can be. Not eyeing sorry for myself and our family around daughter. Even if I feel lousy, I put on a smile and have a normal routine with her. I keep telling myself, she had no role in this and we should do our best to have it affect her as little as possible.

Long Term:

- Career. Will be converting to a ful time employee with company I am at. That should open more doors for training, advancement in the future.
- I am trying my best here to focus on me. To correct the issues that made Chris feel inadequate, etc, etc. I think this is the only way I can have a better relationship with anyone including W. I have also tried to be more respectful and not pressure W with marriage talk.
- I feel better, little bit by little it everyday. There are routines now that I do. It mind on my own, and I feel more confident with weight loss, etc. I am going out of. Y way to happily engage anyone I meet in my day with a smile, a how are you? And hope you have a great day!... Little things, but, it makes me feel good, and connected to others, and it may be what they need to brighten their day. Social life will hopefully pick up with sports and social club, as well as new work colleagues. I've also started chatting occasionally with an old childhood friend who has gone through a similar thing with her husband.
