And thanks for stopping by the old thread under that previous name (PD) to wish me well. I appreciate it. It seems like forever ago that you would visit the old me and give great advice that I kept chucking out the window with my impatience. Actually it's amazing how much better I feel about myself and my situation from several months ago when my wife dropped the bomb about OP and ILYBNILWY and I had the terrible sense of desperation. Of course back then I thought this was a sprint...and as BM says...it's more a marathon. I'm sure everyone posting on this thread can attest to that.
Somewhere along the line of DBing I did as Sage suggested and got the cart before the horse or behind the horse or beside the horse...or whatever. The point being, I didn't look or listen for signs and I failed to stop doing the things that were moving me away from the goals. Anyway, now I'm focused.
Nothing much new to report. My wife did call this am to say they arrived safely. It was nice talking with her. I've got some organizing/home plans this weekend that I think will pretty much carry me through the weekend. Anyone know anything about scrapbooking? I want to start cateloging memories. I'll start with one son I think. I did pick up a second scrapbook for my wife while I was there, but I suppose I better wait for a real occasion to give it. I thought it would be fun to do the project together.
Anyway, that's all I know. In case I post no more or don't return for awhile I hope everyone has a wonderful Easter.
