it's like that movie Groundhogs Day. I wake up, get ready, wake D up, get her to school, go to work, come home, make dinner, do homework w/D, play a bit, get ready for bed, read in bed, go to sleep.
I have lived in a few places. Northeast, South, Midwest (very shot time), and the Mountain West. People ask me what it is like to live in all those places. I generally respond that well you do the same things but with different settings. So there is definitely that quality to life no matter where you are. The important thing is that you are doing those things you have to do. Heck, we have lotteries because people want to get out of the humdrum.
Now, I know that I am far removed from the place you are. But for me GAL isn't anything earth-shattering. My days are I get up, go to work, come home, take a class once in a while, spend time with my boys. Fairly mundane, but I like it this way. One thing I do however is take weekend trips once in a while to visit my best buddy and brother once in a while. See it doesn't have to be anything extreme. It's your life and you are comfortable with it. That is how it should be.

How is one suppposed to change when they only have so much time in one day and it doesn't fit the GAL time at all??
Change isn't always about doing things that others might see as GAL. Change really is about the way you see yourself. What is it you want to change? You don't need a list. Just start small. One thing is fine. Most answers in life tend to be simple. Let's do this the simple way. Maybe that is your key.
dar, I know you can have a better life. Somtimes, the first step is the hardest. Let's see if we can help you find that first step.
