Thanks again, gals. Bets, I'm not so sure that I'm strong as stupid. Heck a lot of others around here are living with A's right in their face--and extra-M pregancies. Now those folks are strong! As for me, I don't know what my W is involved in. But whatever, it still hurts a lot. In my wildest dreams I could never imagine my W acting this way--but I think it just shows the shape she is in.
Today was a day just for me. I was invited to a "party" (i..e., see the Islanders play) I've seen more hockey games these past 15 months than I have the previous 20 years. So after playing with the kids in the morning
- I went to a diner for a late breakfast, read the paper,
- Went to the game with a friend
- Came home and played catch with S9
- Cooked steaks on the grill
- Went to a local memorial mass with family (but did not
sit with W)
- W went out and I took the kids home.

Tomorrow, I'm getting together with my first cousin, who have I have not seen in close to 30 years (perhaps you'll see family of origin issues). I tracked him down three weeks ago and it turns out he is visiting NYC with his family this week!!! I'm pretty excited about this, but have not yet told W.

Tomorrow morning's my big update call with Laurie. Lots to talk about. Have a great week y'all.

Keep on fighting the good fight.
