donna, thank you so much for all of the advice! really appreciate it and will check those books out. actually looking forward to the planner I already ordered. kind of sick considering this isn't what I want. and no doubt I'll be doing a hell of a lot of work for this D, but h is going to have to step up, too. the vision board sounds very very cool. and oh yes, lots of glue sticks and paper in my house.
cat, yep, I've talked to 2 different lawyers, which is probably why I feel pretty decent. I mean, not great, but at least I feel like I have a handle on things, if only slight. we'll see what reality brings. and yeah, the more I think about it, the more I definitely will be retaining a lawyer to look over the DA. thank you for the book recommendation, off to check it out.
