Good Morning Everyone,
I managed 4 miles yesterday (some by parking car three blocks away from therapist's office). My body is sore, I have been away from the walks too long. After getting back from New Haven my neighbor called me over before getting into the house. I chatted with her for 30 mins. All the time I kept thinking, I'm talking to a person outside my family and medical. Then she gave me a compliment (not physical). She said she was glad we weren't moving after all, as we are the only normal people, aside from her family on this street.
That's funny. We've lived here for 16 years and over the years I've chatted with her from time to time. DH thought in the beginning we'd become friends, but then I got involved with something that ended up isolating me and the kids for years. Even my neighbor's sister commented on how I never come over, but seem nice. My neighbor defended me by saying that I was nice, but that I had rules in which I couldn't socialize with "outsiders". Now that I don't follow those "rules" it's hard for me. I think that that was where my agoraphobia was fed lots and lots of fodder. The neighbor knows now that I am "free" so it's okay to approach me. She even said she'd enjoy seeing me more once summer comes. That's when this turtle leaves the shell more and mows her lawn
Pluckypear Yes, this is the second time, I did major rewrites on the book. I think I finished, roughly, yesterday. I'll see today. I worked while at the dentist office waiting for DS. I type a lot of what others were saying,
So I have to clean it up today. I hope the rewrites are done so that I can focus on the ending already. My characters have become real people, everyone talks about them like they are our friends.
How funny you mentioned Delta Dawn, I sing that a lot around here. My kids think I made it up. LOL, nope just something I learned a long long time ago. I love that song.
Diana I used to get comments like that from my mother and grandmother, only their's were spiteful. So funny, they'd insult the heck of me, then totally forget and later say they loved the song I was singing the next time. I love singing, I totally forget where I am and will starting singing loudly in stores. It's so normal that the kids don't even comment on it anymore
Kathy Just wondering, do you have to read you ex's emails? I don't know what divorce entitles, I always think lawyers handle everything. My mom had 7 husbands, but she never had anything to split so they were fast and painless. But I totally get wanting to stuff that kind of thing, divorce and spiteful people can be poison (sometimes, that's what they aim for). I wish you the best in getting through this.
I hope you have a great dive!
Berry where are you? I hope you are doing well. I haven't seen you in awhile. A full week it seems.
ItsMyTurn as always, you inspire. Great workouts and beautiful spirit. Have a great day.
Home three days and DH has been called to AZ yet again. I don't even know when he's coming back this time. What a weird month this has been. Ah well, looks like I have to go make my own coffee this morning. Should do one or two loads of laundry today too. Keep up on it. Sort of cool that that's probably all I have to do. Everything is looking good on my end
I hope you all have a wonderful and healthy day!
