Hi Ready, I’m intrigued by that journal suggestion. What are some of the purposes of it? Helping me compartmentalize? Focusing on what I’m doing?

I dont have a plan tonight. Home with the kids. Although we just decided we’ll go to the local library (it’s relatively new with a great kids section) then eat dinner somewhere

Tomorrow there is a bday party for a friend’s 2 year old. A few of my friends will be there. They’re mostly people I’m loosely friends with. Friends through a closer friend. But I’d like to spend more time with them. They hang out a lot, although they do a fair amount of drinking. I have, too, but am trying to cut back. It’s not a huge temptation for me, if I don’t have drink #1.

Tomorrow night, another friend is throwing a house concert. S1 and D11 will stay with my mom. I’ve been to one, it was amazing. He has a big basement that can accommodate 100 people plus the band. Last one I went to was a legit band that had just finished a European tour. I think tomorrow is more of a local band. I’ll know a couple of people there.

No plans for Sunday yet. I have a golf tee time in the morning that a friend is encouraging me to attend.

My best friend gets into town on Monday for a week. We plan to spend time together of course
