Wow, I am honored that you thought my post was full of wisdom! Coming from you , I take that as a big compliment!
It's amazing when I look back and see how far I have come....from literally BEGGING my XH not to leave, at the front door, on my knees, holding onto him for dear life...as if you can ever really "keep" someone where they don't want to be, physically or emotionally! I certainly won't ever do THAT again! LOL!
I read your posts from time to time, and see that your plans to adopt are finally coming to fruition! I think that's so awesome, and you will be a wonderful Mom! That will definitely cure some of your "workaholic-ness", whether you like it or not! You will just be too busy being a Mom and your baby will come first, babies always come first with Moms!
My BF is a total workaholic, and he missed out on so much when his children were younger, as his XW was also a workaholic. Their children were basically raised by live-in nannies. I find that sad. I am a teacher, and I may not make much money, but I get to spend so much time with my kids and I don't miss out on any of the big things as they grow up. That being said, I am considering starting to work on my doctorate, just one class a semester...it will take me FOREVER....but, it's a goal of mine...and as my kids get older and don't think it's all that cool to hang out with Mom anymore, it will give me something else to focus on!
Well, just wanted to say hi and say thanks for your nice words about my post, it made me feel good!
