Ambivalent,
You asked me a question yesterday:

Did you ever connect with another person after ten years of your divorce?

May I ask who you are referring to when you say another person?


Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to.
The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.

Yes Job,

Did you allow someone else to share your heart?

Ambivalent,
I'm sorry, but my life, when it comes to where I live, where I work and relationships will remain private. Far too many people read not only this forum, but others, and are not required to log in. People tend to forget this and sometimes put TMI out there for people to read and connect the dots (if the readers are smart enough to do so).

Okay, not meaning to pry.

Just wondering if you had healed enough to have a relationship and if this forum has helped you in the new one.

At school , just finished grilling a student for her exam.

They hate me when I'm doing it, but when they go take it...they love me.

=================================================================

I'm going to e-mail everyone tomorrow for our Thanksgiving time.

Then do some more prep for the dinner, and clean.

Daughter is coming tonight...YAY!

Thinking about the Christmas money talk.

I'd like to meet with him, get a budget and figure out if I'm still going to send the family gifts and bring some catalogs of gift baskets we could send. It is weird. He has four other siblings and we always send things from us.

We also need to decide what budget we are doing for the girls.

Also, like Thanksgiving his brother is always with us to celebrate Christmas day and have dinner. Usually Christmas Eve we would go out and have Chinese.

SOOO...I'm not sure how to do this.

Ambivalent,
You may be able late in the day to have a chat w/him about finances, Christmas and what to do about gifting and making the holiday rounds. If not, tell him that you would like to visit the areas sometime over the weekend and see what he has to say.

Glad your daughter is home safe and sound. It always helps to have another human being in the house to keep you company, as well as prepping for the big day.

Don't over do it today because you'll need to rest up so that you can look you finest tomorrow.

Good mornin' Job

Well, I couldn't sleep last night, up 'til four.

So today will be interesting, ha!

My oldest called and she will be spending the night tonight.

I will be practicing my new listening skills and patience.

She's my more complicated one, and the second doesn't have much patience for her narcissism. It will be good practice before the men come tomorrow.

Any advice and tips from anyone and of course you , Job, will be much appreciated!

Happy Thanksgiving All.

My daughter #1 came last night. She brought gifts! I got a piece of pure maple candy. YUM!

She is showing her love , one of her LL's

Getting ready to do a quick clean and then if time, shower and gym.

I have a plan:

Listen intently to everyone today

Make eye contact

Touch often

Smile and laugh

Ask and validate

I believe that will be enough for a day

Now to figure out the wardrobe for the day

I hope everyone shares a special moment of joy sometime during this day.

What am I thankful to God ?

YOU ALL! You have helped me enormously, and MWD for writing her books and having this site. Especially the forum to share and vent.

Thanks again EVERYONE, yes even those that whopped me upside the head (:O
