Thanks, Lin. It felt REALLY good to fix it myself. I emailed DH and told him I took care of it and he said "well done" or something like that. It was such a simple thing, but it felt good knowing *I* could do it and not rely on him!! The same with my son who needed stitches the other day. Years ago, when our middle child fell and split open his mouth, I called DH in a panic, who came and took care of everything. This time, the only reason I called him was to let him know DS was injured. I had to leave a message and it started off with "everything is under control... J split his chin open and we're on our way to urgent care". I swear I'm surprising even myself through this whole thing. Amazing!!
When he left tonight after bringing 16yo home and was taking the other 2, he said he was gonna sleep in, make the boys breakfast and be here around 11 to drop them off and go to work. I said that was fine, but I probably wouldn't be here... I'd be at the Y and to let them know where I was. I'm actually excited to get back to my step classes. (I used to work out religiously until I had gall bladder problems and 2 back to back surgeries. I quit exercising, gained back a TON of weight and have exercised off and on since, but always the treadmill and elliptical.) I've been gone so long, I have to start out with the beginner's again... LOL!!! I have cute workout clothes now (never have before... always big "boy" shirts) and get there almost every day!! Feels like I'm getting back in to the swing of things...
