What a great way to take your mind off your problems ... go visit the White House! I never would have thought of that (or got invited). That's great.

Sounds like you have been all over the roller coaster in the last 24 hours. Up, down and sideways but seem to now be on a more even keel. Glad to hear it.

Seems like H is trying to work with you and that always seems to make you a team (a good thing!) So, keep that up and just (as they all say) "act as if".

I'm going dark for awhile as I really have hit the wall. I just can't seem to want to play "nice" right now so will just take my "ball" home and not play. I think of all we had and what little crumbs he's tossing out now and I just don't want them. I would rather have nothing than that. So, I'm taking a week off to regroup (and totally letting go of the rope) then decide if I even want to try anymore. I might like "going dark" and just stay that way.

Hope things are going better for you. You sound much more upbeat than you did and that's always good.
