This is great. Time to revisit the setting of goals for me. D will be final in a week & a day. 1. Get through court date next week, & as someone on here posted, see my H for probably the last time. (though I haven't seen him since Nov. '09 so it's not going to be a shock)
2. Get the $ & financial issues settled. which i'll probably have to initiate, since H has done little to take care of separating insur. etc. though he was in a rush to D. sigh.
3. Save $ for a down payment on a house. God bless my brother for letting me live at his house for reduced rent & w my 2 large dogs!
4. Finalize changing my name back to "maiden" name.
5. Begin looking at houses in earnest. Already have idea of type/neighborhood of where I'd like to live.
6. Go back to my art meet up & start painting regularly.
7. After D dust settles, focus more on making my job/career more satisfying & stop feeling like a hamster on a wheel.
8. Make service or volunteering a priority
9. Make travel / vacation plans
10. Be a genuine, caring human being who is wiser but not bitter, always trying to be better. And not ever ever letting anyone be my main happiness, for I thankful to all on here who have reminded me that has to come from me.
11. Date, JUST date. I don't want a relationship now or for a long long time. But wouldn't mind dating - after ensuring the guy is SINGLE! Very casual, fun, no big deal. Just want to have fun now, that's it!
12. Keep on healing, b/c I know the days are not yet over when grief brings me to my knees. I will always want to be of support to my DB peeps, b/c I can never really thank you all enough for what you've given me.
