Edge, you sound better than you did yesterday already. I know how hard it is to be alone in the beginning. I did a lot of crying and feeling sorry for myself when I first had to leave my Ds w/ H. Now I actually look forward to it. I didn't have any alone time until our S began. Try to find something you always wanted to do but couldn't because of your kids.
I noticed this morning you are in LA. I lived there for several years. I wish I was there now as we got snow last night.
