It's been a while again..............I'm still active on other boards, it's just hard to be on too many boards and keep up with everyone...............
What is life like post MLC?
The vacation went well: Yellowstone, Salt Lake City (friends, family – visit to homes and schools from W’s childhood), Grand Canyon.............................then we finished our foster care class - a couple more documents needed, some on -line stuff they just started, finish up the back ground checks (yes I was cleared to work the B-2, but it wasn't the state of AZ who did that check...............they have to do their own back ground check...............what a waste of time and money). Working this week on rearranging the furniture and setting up the spare bedrooms.
D13 is back in school doing well and back in soccer, 1-0-0 so far.
W has registered for collage - CLEP'ed a couple of classes and sent off for her old transcripts............should have her AS b/4 she retires from the USAF in Oct ’08.
I'm keeping busy with the other boards I'm on, playing older computer games from years gone by................set up one of my old PC's with Win98, no internet (also for Foster children), and loaded some of my old software...............
But we passed the one-year post MLC mark early this week (W said that was in May - not by my postings at 4060)............and things have never turned back…………………..in part because we both grew through her crisis.
If you can hang in there and the path of destruction is not too much to handle - hang in there................it’s not easy and I don’t think I could do it again (ok – I wouldn’t)……………but we are both better today for what happened…………….
This has been a turning point to a better M. In 25 years will either of us will remember much about this time? Because in 50 years neither of us will remember much of anything.
