Thanks Kaffe. Words of wisdom, most of which I was already thinking, but it's nice to have them reinforced.
Went out for a 4.5 mile run this evening ... nearly broke 32 minutes, which is a goal of mine. And got a call back from one of the volunteer things I looked into, Habitat For Humanity. Will be looking for a few more GAL and 180s, but in that regard things are moving pretty well already.
After we return from our next week's trip to the East Coast, I am planning to take each of my kids out one night a week for a couple of hours, just to catch up, as well as using another weeknight to catch up with an old buddy who moved across town and I almost never see. We're going to have a standing invitation to do something -- dinner, a movie, baseball game, whatever. And then Friday or Saturday night will be for me. I am keeping a journal, writing down a few goals and jotting down affirmations or positive thoughts I come across.
