Hey there Corri... Thank you for asking about me. I am so enjoying reading your last set of posts...it sounds like you are having some FUN! Imagine that!
I took some time away from the board beause I needed to let go of being " marriage fixer" for awhile. I just wanted to get some summertime R&R in. I continue to have a lot of stress with my aging( 80+), frail parents...there is always some crisis, yet it makes me feel good to be there for them. I haven't been drowning in it, though, been making some time for me, and I have put on hold my going-back-to-school idea for now. This Sept will be the first time in couintless yrs I will not hold some sort of work position...more change, does it ever end?...but I feel I need the time.
I have also gotten myself back in regular therapy...a very good thing indeed.
I have been allowing the marital stuff to go on without me, and while things a fairly good, there are areas that are going to require my digging in once again. After Labor Day,lol.
I am sooo proud of you and excited for your future! You rock!!! Thank you for expressing all the emotions you are going through...it's so great to have a place to share the ups and downs of life. I'll probably start posting more regularly in the fall...but in a moderate, non-compulsive way.
Oh...and if you and Karen ever do a NYC thing, remember I am less than an hr from the city!
Your thread has brought some old regulars out from their hiding places!
