Hi all,

ML last night. It had been so long it was really disconnected and kind of uncomfortable. It was like we didn't know what to do. And H kept giving me the passionate pecks, didn't seem to want to really kiss me. I wanted to do something to change the dynamic but I feel like we are baby stepping back from the misery of the past few weeks of H's depression/anger etc... so the time just didn't seem right. Oh well. I guess we'll try again sometime.

We are off to a triathlon at the New Jersey shore with DS14, his two friends who make up his relay team, the baby and DD9. Accomodations were scarce so we had to get two rooms which puts H in with the boys and me with the girls. We will be there all weekend and return home on Monday. We agreed to try to find time for a "conjugal visit" at some point. We can put the kids in a room with a movie or something....

That's the plan. I will be needing some reading material since there's a lot of hanging out associated with these races. We will also visit the beach, the pool and the boardwalk and gorge ourselves with boardwalk pizza. I have been so good with diet/exercise the last week or so I don't want to sabotage myself. I will bring some fruit and stuff with me to help me stay out of trouble.

I took a look at my proofs and picked out a few. They will be ready in time for our Anniversary date. Hope H likes them.

Karen
