A little journaling this Monday morning:

Had a pretty great weekend in Central Florida (I'm actually still here, leaving this afternoon for home). It was nice seeing old friends and family, had a great time on Saturday night at an early Halloween party and got to watch the games with a bunch of old buddies yesterday.

My normal level of melancholy that accompanies trips to this part of the state is here, but not as pronounced as it was last time. Plenty of things, people and places around here make me think of and miss W. I know that's to be expected.

It does feel strange knowing that she's only a few minutes from where I've been staying all weekend and being "unable" to see her.

But that's okay. As I'm getting better at remembering, I'm going to be fine, she knows where I stand, and she is respecting my boundaries. But more importantly, although the sting is still here after a GALing weekend in "her" neck of the woods, It's not as vivid as it used to be.

The bad news is I ate enough to choke a horse this weekend, so I'll have to be extra diligent at the gym this week! smile

So now I'll get some work done and head back home. I'll try to keep the melancholy at bay and I'll try to keep remembering that I'm making progress on ME, no matter what might (or might not) be going on with the sitch...

I hope all my fellow DBers had at least as good a weekend as I did. I pretty much stayed off these boards all weekend, so I'll have some catching up to do.
