I like the idea of thinking of some nice hobbies as part of GAL. I did sell my friend system a little short. I definitely lack the classic, “lifelong buddies” friendships that seemingly everyone else has. But I’ve told a couple friends in town and they have been a great ear. I’ll be sure to find some time to hang out with them regularly, even if it’s popping by for a 1/2 hour after work before S1 needs to go down.
Normally I have no problem with crying (it’s usually happy tears, to be honest), but I’ve hardly shed a tear yet. Wish I could. Instead I have the chest tightness, nausea, etc. Feels much better atm after a couple of good phone calls, though
Thank you for the support
