Thanks for the birthday wishes everyone!!! My kids, bless their hearts, told me yesterday that they think I look younger than their dad even though he is six years younger. I also told a 17 year-old client yesterday that it was my 51st birthday and she couldn’t believe it. She said her mom just turned 40 and looks way older than me.
Had lunch with a good friend of mine yesterday who divorced about 16 years ago from her XH. At the time, she found out that he had been having an affair with the receptionist at his work. She later found out that he had hooked up with a few of the wives in her neighbourhood... one of which she used to run with on a regular basis. So she has no regrets divorcing a serial cheater. She is remarried and both her kids are away at school. She is a manager in the school district that my H works for and said she saw him the other day when she was at his school. She said he looked like a deer in the headlights (what he looks like whenever he sees any of my friends). She said it took everything she had not to call him a dumb@ss...lol. We talked about the concept of love being a feeling or a choice. She told me about a study where the researchers asked Grade 12 students if love was a feeling or a choice. All of them said it is a feeling. They then asked the same question to the same number of 25 year-olds. All of them said it was a choice. Reinforces my view that my H is emotionally on par with the students he teaches...lol.
Looking forward to my get together tonight. A giant step toward my goal of having more female friends.
