Mishka, thanks for the encouraging words. Feel good today. I made it out of ATL ok this afternoon and am DBing from high above Kansas. Wonder if there is record for the highest place to DB? at 37,000 must be close :-)
Greek, W took a pre-emptive clothing strike this morning and asked to take me jean shopping with my s10. A few extra minutes with the little one was good, so I agreed. She proceeded to pick out a pair of (young, nice fitting)jeans and a shirt for me. I can tell you I never would have picked these out by myself, but I felt like a rock star in them. They are spot on for the younger, better dressed, confident crowd. Maybe I should wear them out without her..
As her actions are becomming more erratic, I wonder if she isn't becomming more contridicted inside. Too early to tell. It's almost as though the more she attempts to break free the more she draws back in. Last time she did the clothing thing I started to P immediately. Big mistake. I am sticking to the plan and going dark for the next 72 hours. P will only exacerbate the sitch and push her further away. Going back to read what I did then to make sure I dont make the same mistakes twice. At the same time, I need to prepare for a big pull back as she is on her own for the next week starting Friday morning. I am starting to put together some plans for me and the boys to keep us busy. We have the cross country meet Saturday morning and then thinking a little about taking them to see a good unnamed college football game.
Who knows, maybe another house project ;-)
