MLC vs Midlife Reboot

[ciluzen]

HaWho,
His parents don't have a basement and they are a few day's drive away!Lol! And I realize how incredibly lucky I am so far. Really, I'm kind of enjoying my life at the moment. When I want to study, I study. When I want to go out with friends, I actually have people who enjoy me and want to do things with me!I feel like the dogs you see in videos that have been kept in cages all of their lives and then are filmed walking on grass for the first time.

AJM, I am doing better with not worrying about how I'm portrayed. It helped to hear that many people have a sense of what's been going on and also are confused or even disgusted by it. I have a lot of support even if it doesn't get said directly to me. But I'm good with the people who have been here for me lately. In the past I always had a few very close friends, but no enemies. I've always been "nice". Even H still tells me I'm nice. So, unless someone out and out lies, I don't think anyone that matters to me is going to believe I'm a bad person. And I don't really care if they do.

Oh, and I'd buy that card in the 99 cents aisle. Just for the heck of it.

Just to catch up a bit, I had a bit of downtime from school. A friend and I hiked up around my ski hill and picked huckleberries on Friday and, while driving down the other side of the mountain it occurred to me that both Bubbles and H would be at work all day. So we went over to the river house and spent the day being lazy on floaties in the water, while my dog enjoyed her favorite place in the world (we hadn't been there since early march). She's a chocolate lab and loves the water! The next day the same friend and I went to the farmer's market and then another friend and I hiked up to the top of a nearby mountain with the dog today. We ended up eating a late lunch downtown (outside seating where the French waiter kept bringing my pup water and treats) that was fabulous. I had a great weekend of GAL. I didn't even flinch when I saw that one of my friends (H's office staff) posted a picture yesterday on FB from the river, with both H's boat and Bubbles' boats at the dock. It is what it is. Moving on...
