I've taken myself out to eat a few times - its nice! I don't have to feel guilty about what I order, I read or write and listen to the background hum, I take my time, and there is always enough for lunch the next day (at least with these portions).
I'm settling into this new single thing, I think. T'aint so bad....
Your feelings are normal. Little things help us to get going with our lives, bur remember it will be 2 steps forward and one step back. Eventually we reach a destination. Whether or not it's a good destination is up to us. If we choose to make the rest of our lives good and happy, it will be so. If we choose to drown in our sorrow forever, it will be so. It seems to me that you have chosen the former.
Sometimes we need a good dinner (or in my case some new shoes, or clothes, or furniture, etc.). Sometimes we pamper ourselves just because we can. And should.
And yes, recovery is tiring. But surviving is not.
I hope your daughter is better. It was nice to read a victin-free post today.
Hey, if you're training my army of LBS's for my massive takeover of the Surviving forum, then you better shape up! Victim free posts, WTH is next...forgiveness? Stop yourself FLTC before it's too late. Think of my kingdom if you can't think about yourself. Sincerely, Your King
Thanks, all. Trip, usually I post when I get up and drink that first Starbucks (I brew it myself; black...no Grande Treiente Vente Mocha).
Give me a time and I'll try to check back.
Visited D16. It went very well. I was glad to see her, but it's SO sad. She has progressed tot he highest level where she can get passes off the "reservation"; but she really knows how to play the game so that scares me.
I had to stop at old house to get some things to take to her. W put them out for me. I forgot the directions I printed from Google, so I had to use the computer, which made my stomach hurt because I knew it would just make W. so tense. I was correct, at least in MY opinion. I could feel the tension in the air as I sat there. As I left, W. walked upstairs. I said "Thanks, see you later", and wsa greeted with.....silence. I don't get any of it. She's having a full blown affiar, I try to be humane, and she can't tolerate 5 minutes of me being on the computer. (?) Whatever.
wii: No buyouts for you, so when you take over the board, just remember: YoYo; you're on your own.
