Have a great trip. I hope we can work out that meeting on Wednesday, but it looks good. Make sure you wear your thong! Karen, you can come too and wear your thong. We'll send pictures to Eddy.
Sometimes that introspection is a killer. The doubts, the what ifs, the garbage. Sometimes, there doesn't seem like any clarification.
It DID occur to me yesterday that the ONLY solution to this mess is reconciliation. Otherwise, the phone calls, the visits, the nightmare will continue. And that wasn't too much relief... unfortunately. So, as usual, it is up to ME to pull myself UP. Seems I get heavier and heavier.
Relax. Appreciate. Be calm. Laugh. Enjoy. Be secure. Be loving. Be loved. Don't personalize. Don't ASSume. Accept. Be grateful.
Pattie, no buttons were made! Thought about it last night, but I figure I'll just tell them all to watch for the posters.... coming soon to a theatre near them.
Karen, this trip is all pleasure. Well, as much pleasure as can be derived by visiting my nuclear and extended family members. I love them all dearly... however, my social schedule when I return home for any amount of time doubles (or even triples) and I come home to CO feeling like I need a vacation.
I'm going to try NOT to be online when I leave town. I really think I need a break from the BB and my kids deserve me to take one. I might check in if I have insomnia or something, but otherwise you'll have to wait for the story when I return.
Merrick, I hope you're pleasantly surprised not to find the Hunchback of Notre Dame with boobs... I love giving people visuals so that they are surprised. First of all, I'm a little too tall for the moniker. But it's good to give Eddy something to think about before he tells others to fantasize about a computer poster, eh?
I'm looking forward to getting out of town for a spell. I need a break from thinking about the miserable state of my M and my estranged husband. Hopefully, he will miss us. We shall see.
Okay, a couple more posts before heading to a meeting. I have lots to do here before I get out of here tomorrow.
Just keep swimming!
p.s. Karen, Mercury is retrograde beginning next Tuesday until the end of April. When this happens, communication snafus occur... so expect things to be moderately difficult to work through. Not impossible, but requiring a lot of effort.

Hud, since your thread is locked out, you want to be a squatter on mine? I'm happy to have male company in my world... I won't walk around the place naked or in a thong!

Doesn't matter to me, I'm just pleased to be invited (although I've already found myself squatting on jazz's new thread, "Back After D").
And btw, I'm happy to provide shuttle service at the airport on Sunday, provided I don't get lost and running late. Just call me on the cell when the plane touches down. I'll have a big sign that says "MOE" on it.
Have a safe trip and fun meeting merrick and Berto (wiley met Berto on Thursday - word's out that had quite the night out).
Sounds like you need a new squatting home in each forum? Is that the same thing as having a girl in every port?????
I was snickering to myself at the thought of what your "limo driver sign" would read. That means I'm going to have to be creative myself, so maybe you should look for a sign as well. I'm moderately secretive, so you're going to have to be paying attention!
Actually, since I will be accompanied by Thing 1 and Thing 2, I think I should be fairly easy to spot. Just look for the frazzled witch with 1 kid with loads of energy and the other who is dragging with me...
I'm hoping Berto will fire me off an e-mail before I take off tomorrow. Sounds like he and Wiley had a grand old time. I sure hope he doesn't expect me to live up to Wiley's abilities. I'm an old fart who can't keep up with my grandmother, for God's sake.
See you Sunday. I hope you have a wonderful time here in our beautiful state. The weather is going to be perfect!!!

Hey girlie! Have a great vacation! I know you will, because I know you have learned about living life to the fullest. When your family starts to annoy you, just reach into your bag of magic DB tricks and take care of it!
Thanks again for being you. I have thanked Meredith a bunch of times today too. I know that you guys kept me centered throughout this whole mess. Thanks for having confidence in me. I just needed to have it in myself didn't I? (I feel like Dorothy with the ruby slippers....)
Anyway- Have a great time! I'll watch the news for any crazy happenings in our nation's capital....
Thought about it last night, but I figure I'll just tell them all to watch for the posters.... coming soon to a theatre near them.
