Hey Cory--so good to see you!!! Do you have a thread?? I'm going to look for it if so!!! I've missed you (and I know I'm not the only one around here that feels that way!) I am trying to stick to X (and OW's) schedule as much as possible, but sometimes I can't, and I don't feel bad about that. I think I'm stronger than I was when I first got here; but of course I was a bowl of jello back then!!! Hope I never go back to that!

D10 is having a blast at summer camps--I'm driving 3 hours a day with all the commuting-but worth it for my D. She's going to be in a play, Honk Jr., she's been working on for the last 3 weeks, and I can't wait to see it Friday and Saturday this week. Wed. night is the cast party. My car needs work on it this week, and all the usual parenting stuff. X is going on his (I suspect honeymoon) the next 2 weeks, so I get to spend lots of time with the kids, and glad for that.

I was late picking up D10 from the park after camp Friday (my good friend T was watching his daughter and mine). I got stuck on the interstate behind an accident and took over an hour to get there. I was saying to D10 on our way home, how amazing T was, not mad at all about my being late--he thought I had stayed at work late. D10 said well it wasn't something I could help so she wasn't surprised, but I realize I'm used to X where he gets angry whether you can help it or not. It's warped me in a way--I enjoy having healthier relationships now, and hope to continue that.
