You go, Girl!! I love how you sound so upbeat and positive!! It sounds like your going dark is a good thing?!! Wow!!! Good for you!!!

Can I tell you I'm burned to a crisp? <<<that's me with a sunburn!! ;\) It was a WONDERFUL day!!! See, water kinda freaks me out... especially when I can't see the bottom. Lakes really CREEP me out. I guess I'm afraid of some slimy something grabbing me and pulling me under!! Last year, when we first got the boat, I think it was the last time we took it out, I tried knee boarding. I have never skied or anything in my life so I was not prepared to be pulled right off... LOL!! Anyway, this year, I've tried it 2 more times and today, I stayed up for like a whole minute or two, but it felt like a REALLY long time... LOL!! Before, I would "scream like a girl" the whole time, but this time, I just smiled cuz I was really doing it!!!

There was absolutely NO R talk and that was nice, too. I didn't bring up the aunt/uncle comments cuz I didn't want to ruin the day. I did joke with him at one point saying I was excited he was moving back in. He had a momentary freak out... but couldn't say anything before I said "just kidding"... LOL!! We got back LATE!! Only about an hour ago cuz we played until around 7 - 7:30 and stopped to eat at the marina. Now, when we were getting all the stuff out of the back of his truck, I looked for his wedding ring since he kept saying "it must be in the back somewhere". It's not. I took out the baseball gloves since the season is over and some apartment magazines. He said "did I say you could take stuff out" and I said "I was looking for your wedding ring". That's all I said... I didn't say it wasn't there... I didn't call him out saying "you promised 2 things and you've already broken one"... ;\) I was very good.

You know I can say the friend thing right now (this moment) cuz I'm confident we can fix this. I'm not sure I'd feel the same if I was unsure.. and I'm not sure I'll feel this confident in five minutes let alone in a day or so!! But it's a woman's prerogative to change her mind, right? :oP

Gotta tell you. I've told you how 7yo has been VERY clingy lately, right? He's constantly coming up to me and kissing me... my arms, my forehead, my lips... just CONSTANT kissing. So I asked him today what was wrong. He wouldn't say. DH was right there. Well, only the 2 of us were in the water at one point and he did it again. I asked him again if he was okay and that although I loved the kisses, I was wondering why he did it all the time. It brings tears to my eyes... he said "I miss you". \:\( You know I wanted to tell DH look what you're doing, but I know that's not fair, so I didn't mention what J said at all.

Again, I'm glad you had a good weekend!! Oh and I totally hear you about the rain!! I need my sun. If it rains for more than 2 days here, I can feel myself spiraling. Thank goodness we don't usually get more than 2 days of rain at one time. ;\)

I think you're handling your appt this week well. I really admire you for that!!

Keep up the good work!!! \:\)
