Hey LFA-

Yeah, I can't imagine how people with kids deal with this.

At one point, I thought about renting a place as an interim measure. But almost all the for-rent ads said "no pets." and no way was I going to leave the cats in the house for HER to touch.

Sundays, or any day without a full schedule of activities, are also very hard for me. I try to plan ahead and fill them up. I guess it is a measure of my progress that I don't freak out about what I am going to do NEXT Sunday on the current Sunday at 5 am.

I'm glad you feel OK about leaving. Do what is best for you.

Tell me about your GAL, and your work. Do you have girlfriends to hang with? any physical work out stuff that can help take the edge off?

Sympathy on "not keeping on top of the bills." My bedroom right now looks WORSE than it ever did when I was a teenager. What up with that??!!

I do believe that FB is the spawn of the devil--have you read how many posts here start with: my WAS connected with someone on FB...but it is a way to communicate off the boards.

I don't go to my "real-life" page much. I peek into my Avermont page when I can.

My chin is definitely not up right now, but I will try to put it there for your sake.

Keep posting! you and the rest of the boards are my life line!
