Thanks! Mach1 has been helpful... I feel like I've found a "home" on this board - there are so many helpful folks...
I am getting used to the marathon. I have days where I think - Oh I'll bring this up to H when he comes over later, maybe we can talk about it...
Then I remember my DB lessons and think no - I'll save it for MC I have much more fun being happy when H comes around, like it doesn't matter that he doesn't live here any more. And dressing up and looking cute (as I can at eight months pregnant!) and doing new things, meeting new people...
And I find that if I DO keep my expectations of H low, I tend to be pleasantly surprised once in a while.
I have so much to concentrate on... just with chasing my little girl and popping out this other one.
I am looking at some non-credit courses at a local community college right now. Silversmithing I saw a cute ring on Etsy I thought about buying for myself, and thought "How neat would it be to be able to make that?" and, ten weeks of having one evening all to MYSELF!
