jen, you are pretty much reading my mind. For me, in my younger days it was a too much beer and the "need for speed" with motorcycles was the thing, no drugs, I can't stand my head being out of control and I've always had a job that wouldn't allow it. on this week's list is it's time to pull the bike out of the garage and get it going again.
today, I got up early, cleaned the house a little then decided it was time for a little road trip to the mountains. I asked W yesterday if she would like to go, she said "no, I'm too busy, I have to clean the house and frost a cake for my sister's b'day". When I was about to leave D8 and D3 woke up. I asked them if they wanted to go along, so we went, I left W a very short note. W called after she woke up at the "crack of noon". The first time she called I just let it ring. 15 min later she texted me to call her with where I was at. I waited another 15 min before I called her to let her know what was up, short and sweet conversation. myself and d's had a good time, went to a little spiritual store that we all enjoy, especially w and d3. I let the d's each get something special for themselves and got myself a couple little things as well-nothing for W. A couple hours later, I got home, house the same way I left it, b'day cake unfrosted and W in a bit of a stew because her mother had been agitating her since she got up. W talked about it and other things, seemed to be really easygoing and comfortable once I got home. all for now, back to work tonite, should give W some space
