You are too sweet. Just sharing ideas, no sweat. There are so many here that are inspiring and much further down the path.
As far as being nice to H...yes, I am now. But, hate to admit, there were many moments where I was quite the opposite. Climbing uphill is quite hard. Wish I had shown him more support in other times...oh well, live and learn and change. BUT, when you've hurt someone else, it's a little harder to swallow.
Again, thanks for your kind words.
If nothing else, just get your brain thinking of all these fun and exciting things. You'll feel mopey at first GAL'ing, but soon it'll feel normal again.
This week, try to come up with one thing that you can start doing this summer with kids and get them excited about (pool pass, museum visits, library program, etc).
As for me, I had dinner with a friend tonight to share a little community action idea, something small but hopefully something that will spread, volunteer-like. Women helping women. She liked the idea and we're gonna present to other friends and hopefully it'll spread. Felt good to focus on something other than my life.
