Sanderika:

Thank you for your kind words. I do write from the heart because I have lived through it. And only someone who has can truly understand what you're going through.

I did not use ADs. My ex had been on them and they had caused some serious problems. But I do know that they work well for some people. Like you, I am very stubborn and probably suffered more because of that at times.

Yes, the weather can really get you down on top of it all and no doubt missing your son is tough. His return will be something special to look forward to. It did not rain here today. The sun shone. I sat on the beach, did crafts and took my jetski out for a spin. It was a good day!

So - you will see both your L and your IC. This is all good. You sound like a very intelligent woman and you know how to take care of yourself. It's all good!

Enjoy your evening out with your friends. Trust me -you can't have enough of them - friends or evenings out.
