Hey all starting a new thread at the request of the mods -here's the back story link:

I can tell you it's tough living together during this whole trip, but it is the best thing for our kids. It also helps me build my mental "toughness", keep busy around the house and also motivates me to plan my day for myself every weekend to have a blast and stay out of the house (other day is always me and the kids S14/D16).

I can't say strongly enough to everyone in LBSville to truly get out and GAL. It's taken me about 5 months to really embrace a different lifestyle - one that's fun, exciting and REAL. Once you do this, it makes the detachment process so much easier, not that any of these techniques are easy here, but this will get you over that mountain that I know we all face but can't bring ourselves to accept.

The next part of the trip for me is to truly Drop the Rope, the only way I see this happening is more GAL time and it will come to me step by step, I feel it already. I'd truly love to say I'm there now, but I have to be 100% honest to myself at all times. The concern I have is when I get there is what will I want to do with my life from here on - I am having a pretty good time starting to live as a single parent, without the trappings of M. It will be an interesting choice if and when it presents itself.

So onto a new thread and once again thanks for all your support - coach, greek, gucci, pdt - and everyone else- it's your input that keeps me striving to get to the best of me!

Thanks
