Glad you had a good time with your GF's. I'm sorry you're missing D3.. she's such a sweetheart and all of this has brought you two so close. She's gonna be jumping for joy when she comes home.. bet you get smothered with hugs and kisses
Rob,
Wherebouts in OH are you? I grew up near Dayton and have been meaning to ask if you're near there.
Happy Belated Birthday! Sorry I missed yesterday--but I was nonstop GALing yesterday. When I saw my C yesterday, she suggested Alanon too (as my sister-in-law told me I should), so I guess I will try it as soon as I can find a meeting and fit it in. Did you ever go to one? Karen43
Glad you had a nice birthday. So sad that your H couldn't even nicely acknowledge your birthday. I know you miss D3 but she is having a great time, being spoiled.
I did enjoy my day for the most part. H actually did acknowledge it in a decent way with his first message to me, telling me that he hoped I had a good day. I fell asleep before he got home. He got up early this morning when I got up. He offered to make breakfast and then quietly asked some questions......where did I go, who did I go with....etc. When I left for work I gave a happy.....see you later & thanks for breakfast!
Getting my hair cut tonight. Might try something new. TAL, you inspired me to do it!!
Karen, I have not gone to a Alanon meeting yet. A friend recommended a book to me that I might pick up. It's called "Co-Dependent No More".
Sheila, you are right. This whole thing has brought D3 and I sooo much closer. My mom really noticed it. Yes, lwb, I miss D3 like crazy, but you're right. She's busy and being spoiled. She's been spending a lot of time with my dad (retired), as my mom still works. This afternoon my oldest niece was picking her up for the afternoon. She LOVES this niece. She loves all 3, but this one is the oldest and pays her EXTRA attention. Anything D3 wants, she gets.....usually within reason!
Sues
