Damn, Trish, I'm so glad you kept my drink cool next to my chair on the sand! I've been waiting to get to this point, and I'm so glad I made it. It's been a long time coming.
You and Wonder added some incredibly fresh perspective on this theme. I am going to give your posts a lot of credence, because they make sense.
Now it will be time to put the theory to test. Mr. Wonderful is leaving for LA late tonight. Oh, I neglected to say that he finally called me Saturday afternoon. He had way too good news to share about the tournament and I was the one he wanted to share it with. The ice breaker...
After our brouhaha with D10 last Monday night regarding gymnastics (she wanted to quit but has now changed her mind), he's going to take her tonight, shell out the $ for this month's fees and ask her to sign a commitment form for 3 months. And no complaining.
Well, little does he know that he's going to get a little writing assignment of his own tonight (with MC's enthusiastic approval). I'm going to give him an envelope to take with him on the trip which has an essay to write: an ending for our last chapter and a beginning for our next one.
He gets home late Wednesday night, so I don't expect him to return it to me until maybe Friday or Saturday. One way or another, I figure I'll have an answer before mother's day. Oh, and he's taking off Friday to take care of the girls (they don't have school) and then dropping them off Saturday morning so he can take the motor home out for a few days to see if everything is working.
Maybe this is something he needs, as his own mother passed away on Valentine's Day? I feel that he is still grieving, and let him know it's fine with me.
In the meantime, this beach is looking awfully inviting. I might be staying here awhile! Did anybody bring tunes?
