SO began daddy duty on Sunday evening, so now I have a bit of time again. I always feel badly when I don't post to my own thread as often as I should. I remember my early days in this community, and how I poured over posts by successful DR'ers looking for clues and answers.
The best I can summarize is to take things slow, have patience, don't make mountains out of molehills, and you WILL get through this and even be a better person for it, especially if you stick to the basic DR principles.
I'm finally re-establishing a regular gym routine again, and it feels SOOOOOOOOOOO good! I haven't been in a regular routine since before I moved here, almost 4 years ago. I love the weight-lifting and the treadmill work afterwards. I love being in an all-female gym with a bunch of regular women who aren't college girls looking to get laid. This week my schedule will be Mon/Wed/Sat.
Tonight I'm working on a group paper that is due today. Thursday evening will be Maundy Thursday activities at church. Sunday some of my kids will be here for Easter and will be joining me at church for breakfast and worship. With SO on dad-duty and his D15's b-day this weekend, I probably won't see him at all during the weekend. We have our weekly lunch on Thursday, and that may very well be it for this week.
While on one hand, that's kind of a drag, on the other hand I appreciate the breaks and I know it helps him miss me.
That's about all I have for now, folks. Things are going very well. The weather FINALLY warmed up here, too! Yay! It actually feels like Spring! I may even walk home from work this afternoon -- 2.3 mi. is a good stretch of the legs, and I have my dinner planned for tonight too. I only cook for myself about once every 7-10 days.
This week my schedule will be Mon/Wed/Sat.
