Great answers all. Know what? I think I am going thru MY changes too!! I feel inferior..secondary...that my home isn't as good. I am doing the best that I can right now. Even keeping the house straight is hard work with my time.

S9 started travel league practice yesterday and I got MORE time with him. He was all over me with the I love u's and for the first time in awhile, he showed me affection with hugging and kissing me. Was hard not to lose it when I dropped him off but I kept straight.

This is NOT easy my friends. I feel worse with D7: she feels estranged although I know she loves me. (sigh)

Final note..yesterday, after fielding a ground ball during my son's practice, my finger felt funny. Right 4th distal finger tip was bent. Without any pain or warning, I apparently ruptured the extensor tendon of my right 4th finger. Not the best for a surgeon. Had to get coverage for the ER last night. Today, the finger is going to be pinned. Ouch. I SHOULD be able to operate with it.

Accident or message from above????
