Thanks Jeff! Yes, I've upped my GAling b/c Puppy & H4H had realized I was not GALing enough, and they were right. I was hiding out from H but not really GALing as much. So now I'm exhausted!!! I painted most of the day, but did clean 2 hours and worked out for an hour. I managed to miss seeing H yesterday b/c I was at that meeting, and then tonight I was upstairs working out when he got here. But I wasn't hiding out from H (have stopped doing that), but just busy GALing.
I had so much fun today with my theatre friends painting! Very fun. I would love to ask them to help paint and I'm sure some would, Kat, but we were saying today how we enjoy painting sets but hate painting our houses! Plus, all of them work full-time and then spend 20 hours or more a week during play season so these are really busy people! I should have done that this summer when they have the 2 months off from plays!!!!
Ok, the good news is everyone said how much better I looked today--I think they mean I'm doing better and positive and everything. We were talking about how during the last play I would come and cry almost every time!!! But most of them have been divorced and are luckily very understanding.
The thing that bugged me is one of my friends there was saying how old-fashioned and naive I am, but a really nice person, and that bothered me a little b/c I'm thinking naive is the code word meaning dumb, and I'm not really. Maybe a little overly trusting or something. Is that something you think I should work on? I mean I've been working on boundaries and don't let H push me around much anymore. Plus, how do you become more modern and less naive anyway?????
Something that struck me funny, although nice of H, is he took the kids to his church tonight and apparently they started a new series for the kids and it has a CD he bought and cards that you go over each day at home that he left for us: on get this: VIRTUES!!!! It talks about how most parents want to raise their children with good character and values. OMG, is that just too funny? Karen
