In terms of another get-together, I agree. Some ladies along would be great. Maybe then we could convince you to go dancing. Bridget, I didn't realize you were so close! There are at least 2 of us in NE FL. K, I wonder if kids would do well in a larger group. Maybe something smaller for kids/families, and larger for the adults? This would free us up for some outdoors stuff - picture folks kayaking, canoeing, snorkeling, those who can doing scuba. Then out for some nightlife. Of course anything with kids could also involve water fun, or the whole Orlando experience.
I find myself in a good place right now. Not without some emotion and thoughts, but overall, pretty balanced. Life marches on with its other ups and downs. I recently experienced a falling-out with a friend/business partner, and had to go my separate way there, and I found my DBing has kept it civil/polite and even laying the groundwork for future possibilities regarding friendship. Just not business.
Reviewing the last week's contact with XW, my distancing from her allowed me to stay separate from her during my time of greatest upset, and allowed her space to do her thing, later returning with more contact and strong attempts to initiate friendly chatter. We're at a place this week that is again friendly and cooperative regarding S6. I still bite my tongue a lot, and find myself validating tons, but she has started to compliment me - like about my being in shape, my rock-climbing outing - but not regarding Vegas itself! It would have to move much more into a mutual level of sharing/support for it to be truly enjoyable, though.
I have S6 for Thanksgiving, and I need to work hard planning a good holiday experience for us. What are other folks planning?
