In the need of a good laugh....HoFS</font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Ok, you guys have to promise not to laugh at me. I wasn't always like this. Well, maybe passionate about some things but not like so outgoing. When I was a teenager I was so painfully self conscious that if I saw someone I knew out in public, I would go to great lengths not to be seen so I wouldn't have to talk to them.

With family and close friends I was pretty outgoing, but otherwise I was invisible.

HA! Contrast that with 10 years ago when I met one of my best friends. They bought and were restoring a house that I'd always been interested in. One day they were outside doing some work. I walked up to them and said.... pretty much in one breath.... "Hi I'm Penny, I LOVE your house, can I see the inside? And I think you should paint it in historically accurate colors, I'll bring you the book. And why don't you drill holes in those scallops they'll look lacier." ( they did both those things BTW!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> )

Lots of subtlety there <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

Hoffs.... Second DEGREE.... LOL <[ : )

Met H at the Y last night and then went to his place to trade vehicles. I want to take my car when I go to my moms' this weekend. More fun to drive, easier to park on her busy street, and gets better gas mileage.

He met with his potential new C yesterday so we talked about that a bit. I'm always so leery of conventional C's. We'll see I guess. H knows my list of concerns and I think he shares then to a point. So he assures me that if this guy starts heading off on the co-dependent/you need to take care of yourself/ you aren't responsible for how your spouse feels tangent that he'll address it somehow.

He's also starting in a group there also. It was a nice conversation. I let him read my Q/A letters I've been working on for my site. He was on my email list of people I asked for input, so he was anxious to see how I would reply to his questions. What a unique opportunituy to give advice!!! LOL Anyway, he said they were good.

Got home about midnight, tired but it was worth the trip. I mentioned a couple of things that are going on here and he said again how nice it is to be removed. So I teased him a little about never coming home. Seriously though, I could see that happening, and I don't know how I feel about that.

I am going to take some bigger steps in addressing some things around here, when I get back next week. There's no way I can take care of the horse myself. So I'm going to make some calls. I think we would give her away to the right place.

The car and the truck too. The car can go to Am. Lung Assoc, and the truck I think I'll just sell even if it's less than what he would like to get.

Anyone want a mower????

Our time together with very minor exceptions has been pleasant and even fun. It's amazing what a difference it makes not to be afraid and not to have my LBnk beaten on all the time. This was definitely the right thing to do. Now...... about those mowers.....

Wait, you're not refering to your favorite one are you? What next, your weed-whacker collection?
