Lou, I'm glad you a fun night out. Glad to see that all of your limbs are still intact. It just goes to show that even though you haven't been on skates in a long time, you still can do it. In my area, we don't have any roller skating rinks any longer. The interest in that died down a long time ago and yet, it's good exercise and fun at the same time. Kids today don't know what they are missing.
Happy belated birthday to your son. Sounds like he's getting his life in order and was having some fun w/friends on his birthday. Your S20 also sounds like things are moving along quite nicely for him too and once he gets internet service, you both will enjoy talking to one another more frequently. This will help you a lot, I think.
The weather here isn't the best today, but it looks like towards the end of the week we'll be in the upper 50's. Now, that's a heat wave for us. I hope your weather improves too.
Lou, I'm glad to see that you are taking care of yourself. Journaling is a great way to get your thoughts down on paper and a year from now, you can go back and read what you posted and see just how far you have come. It's a one step forward, two step back dance for a while...but eventually, you will be going forward and on to a new life w/o even realizing it.
Take care.
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.
