I will chime in that I cleaned out my closet in the master and put all of H's stuff in boxes in the basement. It is a little thing, but every morning when I open the closet I am not faced with reminders...
84 here today Jeff. I am sure you will be at 90 or something but that is awesome weather for us!
(((((Donna))))) I think you are right on the decluttering! There are some things I can do now, though in a lot of areas I will stay out of the way, as I don't want to look like I'm interfering in her packing. But after she is gone, I should be able to do a "life reorganization"!
(((((BobbiJo))))) 84 sounds pretty nice! It's supposed to be about 90 today, then a little cooler every day through the weekend. If highs of 80 on Sunday are cool! This is a great time of year!
I'd love the desert, that's for sure! I must have been the only person in London today walking round in a fur (fake) lined coat and wooly gloves
((((Handsome)))) Hope you're OK.
L. xx
But what socks?
There aren't many days you'd need you furry coat and wooly gloves here, even in the dead of "winter" (using the term loosely)! I think England is a beautiful country, but I would have to say that the weather isn't my favorite, most of the time. Now and then it can be perfect, especially on a nice summer evening, but on the whole.... Then again, 105F isn't that great either. Which is why they invented air conditioning! But for 8 or 9 months of the year, it is great.
Since I feel like typing..... I think the desert is a pretty neat place to visit, even if you decided you don't like it. There is so much more life than you'd expect, and so much is pretty unique. We are surrounded by mountains, which makes it even prettier. And the Tucson Chamber of Commerce did not pay for that plug!
I'm doing ok, I think I am a bit mentally taxed, but just realizing that has helped some. I'm still looking forward to this being over, and I think it is the right thing to do. It is a little weird to think that if I ever (ok, when) ML again, it won't be with W. But the idea of holding hands with someone, and just "being" is pretty attractive. I know I can't rush into that, but it's still out there. And I am not sure what rushing into it would be after being in a M that has been "dead" for so long already. I guess it is something I will have to give some thought to, but I am trying not to worry about that until after W is out of the house, and papers are filed (which I think should happen in the other order....).
I think S14 is suffering from spring allergies, he has been miserable. He has to be at the airport Sunday morning at 4:30 for a school trip to Washington, DC. I saw their itinerary the other day, I think they are going to come back dead! Oh, I get to take him to the airport! That is going to be an early day! I think I will come back home and sleep!
I'm so glad you're OK. I think it's definitely a good plan to wait and see until after W moves out. That'll be odd when she's gone, I guess...
I would love to come and visit. I cam to Phoenix once and loved it, especially he hot mid-August weather. For once I could take the gloves and socks off and not be cold- perfect!
I hope S14 feels better soon, and that he enjoys DC.
((((((Lisa))))) Wow.... if you liked Phoenix in August, I think you would like Tucson! It's a little cooler, and a lot prettier (I think). It won't be long before I have a place for guests......

VH,
If my W doesn't have her own personal "come to Jesus" talk and make a decision to recommit to our M, then I look forward to being where you are right now - actually doing something to move on with your life. It's good to see that even when things go south, there is life on the other side.
By the way, your S14 should enjoy beautiful weather here in DC when he arrives. Our current weather forecast all the way through Tuesday is warm and sunny.
