Why not?

Or perhaps we just call M an enigma and leave it at that.

My dad just emailed me this-

Courage is more exhilarating than fear and in the long run it is easier. We do not have to become heroes over night. Just a step at a time, meeting each thing that comes up, seeing it is not as dreadful as it appeared, discovering we have the strength to stare it down.
- Eleanor Roosevelt

Someone IRL commented today about H and I chasing each other at the school function the other day. Figured we were "back together" and "what was up with that" and "too cute"...

For some reason it really affected me. I'm so relieved that whatever the hurt is about, it is tolerable, doesn't make my stomach ache and my head hurt...just got to me...

Doin' alright...

I'm glad you're "doin' alright".

You were kickin' a$$ on the board today!

You seem to operate from a standpoint of what you need to 'do', instead of what you 'need'! It doesn't take effort so much as it does discipline!

You're pretty stout, aliveandkicking.

Ya, too bad I got nothing else done and I don't get any GAL points for it.

I don't get any GAL points for it.

Of course you do. As you work through your sitch and weigh in on others', you're Doing The Work. That's Getting A Life.

Well, I can't take it to the bank IYKWIM.

Not digging the whole Father's Day sans moi...oh well...

[aliveandkicking]

It seems exasperation is contagious here on the DB...but I'm coping alright.

Kid parties today, cold shoulder from grumpy H (in public...that feels good )

Then an apology and request for a backrub...oh ya, these freaks are loopy.

[aliveandkicking]

F*******************************************ck! I hate it when my kids leave, they're actually sleeping at Dad's tonight (well at his borrowed digs).

S6 wanted to know why I'm not going to be with them tomorrow...uh, uh, "because Father's Day is more about you guys, he's your dad."

Ok, got to move that feeling through and now gonna enjoy me my Saturday night...

[aliveandkicking]

Well, crappity crap crap...ended up having dinner together...

Worst DBing ever tonight delivered by AK...too much loaded stuff came up when he pulled me outside to talk to me.

I did catch a moment where H said he thought of me today and sort of wished I was there. But, it would be impossible to have me there; too uncomfortable. He's staying there cuz we're separated, would be too weird to have me hanging out.

I was a rather whiny and provocative mess...I guess talking about my H's new flame got to me...

It happens. Forget it. New day. New chance to DB.
