Thanks Matilda. I do need that hug. (and a lot more would be nice too, but that's a different issue...)

I am concerned that she is gonna "fake it" all the way to the courthouse steps. However.... during the last (brief) R/D discussion we had (about a week ago), she said it was time to move forward with D. I asked her "why are you in such a hurry? It seems as if you are 'rushing to the door?'" Now, I expected her to say, "well, it's gonna happen anyway" or "I'm tired of living with you." But instead she said, "I'm not rushing toward the door? I'm not in a hurry." I thought this was an interesting response.

I told her today that I am joining a men's fraternal organization. My first meeting is this week. Chalk up one more GAL for me!

Other GAL: I worked this weekend on the fishing boat & trailer. Need to do just two more things and it will be ready to go. Unfortunately, one is I have to have the outboard motor repaired. I am taking it in this week. BTW, it's been sitting in our garage for over seven years. Have not taken it out on probably 10 years, so this is a big GAL for me. Look forward to taking my boys fishing.
