ltc is at school! TCG took Monday off so we could take her to her first day together. So today is the first day where the full impact of having 4 hours to myself is sinking in.
Sometimes when I'm sitting in class... You know, I'm not thinking about class, 'cause that would never happen. I think about kissing you. And it's like everything stops. It's like, it's like freeze frame. Willow kissage.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yay! I hope it is restorative, sj

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Connie - I would contact one of the meet-ups that sound interesting and see if they would consider starting at 6:30 one time a month, or as a trial. I know it would be hard here also because by 6, anyone with kids is getting dinner ready. Are there options on weekends?
My scheduling complaint is that locally it seems only non-working folks get to yoga. 10am weekday classes. 1 option on Saturdays.
Laura any word on your son? I've been worried.
YAY sj!! Just wallow in the free time for a bit, it will go by very fast at first.
Today is work from home day and thus far I am not really working. Need to get on that.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I looked around to make sure I had everything packed for my trip, picked it all up, and came downstairs. Stuff in suitcase, stuff in backpack, stuff in purse. All ood.
And then I realized I'd forgotten my pants.

Our wings are not tired.

Unfortunately no. A number of other people are trying to get him to respond via FB posts in addition to me, without success. Two of his friends stopped by to see him at my request, but they didn't give me any detail. Just that they saw him. I've asked a couple others to make welfare visits, including his brother. It isn't good. My husband leaves here tomorrow morning to head back and see what is up. If he finds him unemployed and dysfunctional he'll toss him on a plane and send him up here for my fixing. Parenthood, yeah you know.

Maybe only shoes and shirts are required?

Hugs, Laura. It's good that people saw him, at least.

His friends are kinda awesome that way. They know about his bouts of depression and step up when they see the signs.

Ugh, Laura. That's so hard. I'm glad he at least has good friends.

I slept through my alarms and I know I'm forgetting something, but I do indeed have my pants.
