Shining you are cracking me up!
I too have been noticing eye candy lately... The guy at the Starbucks drive thru is freaking HAWT! And since I go there every morning he greets me by name and chats a bit.
But alas- he wears a ring- and I'm not dating either.
So I just drool into my coffee!! smile

So glad you are loving the job. That definitely heros keep me sane and feeling worthy too! Keep Rockin it!

Ok, now you made me cry...happy tears, though, S. Thank you for what you wrote. I was drawn back here...to find you. I know it.

You really are incredible, S. I mean that sincerely. I am glad you are seeing you and beyond happy that you found that job.

As far as h, he is feeling the shift in you if I had to guess. Oh well, not your problem, right?

You just keep going...I cant wait to see where you land.

And there aint nothing wrong with lookin...just sayin..:)

Oh, daring....the drooling into the coffee, I so relate.

I have lost all my "cool-points" somewhere along the road...lol!! That is, assuming I was ever in possession of cool points to begin with....

I have done more clumsy tripping, spilling, dropping things, realizing something is on my face AFTER I've been chatting with someone über good-looking..... It's truly hopeless, lol. I have become the epitome of "hot mess".

Thank you for the kind words and encouragement! Things are slowly getting better and better. smile

uR, I am certain you were drawn back here, and I believe it was to find me. Although I can be upbeat and I like to have fun on here....if anyone saw me in April and May, you would have thought I was a 97 year old catatonic bag lady. I was dying from the inside out. I never thought I would laugh again. It was dark. I was truly saved after coming here and finding you, uR. No other way to put it.

I have a lot that I miss in my life. I have essentially lost everything except my kids.

But....I also have so much to be grateful for. Life puts on a different "costume" sometimes. It looks completely different, but it's still a good life.

And the guy-candy????? Me lookin'???? Oooohhhh, mmmyyy..... I forgot how fun that is!! Best not get caught looking, tho....

Perhaps our friend Eric can give me lessons on subtly? whistle

Lol, Bright! No need to apologize! I didn't think you were dating....

But, yeah.... The looking...window shopping..... I'm guessing free samples are off limits?

OF COURSE there cant be anything wrong with him.

I have heard this script before.

What was interesting?

Good reality to be sitting in.

Nothing wrong with looking….just be careful. I’ll pass along a word of wisdom that was once given to me…..

“temptation comes….when a door is INTENTIONALLY left open”

Remember your goals. You’ll be tested, you’ll be tried, whatever you do…..know why you are doing it. Never to lie to YOURSELF – just be YOU. Own your choices and live them.

HOT pink knitted half shirt with 6 inch heels….. subtle enough? Wait that's what I am wearing. smile ROTFLMAO.

Oh….. BTW, IMO, you’ve already won the battle…. You just do not know it yet. 

Um, you did meet Eric, right? LOL!

As Eric said, you have to be true to you. So, when making any kind of decisions, make sure they match who you are. smile

Hi, Cadet! Yep...H can't have anything be wrong with him. Seems to have stopped blaming me, but he still can't be accountable for anything, himself.

Eric, I found it interesting because H has continued to share his personal medical results, med changes, etc. with me throughout the S. In my first D, I would NEVER have wanted xh knowing anything about my personal medical business. Xh was the same in reverse. Just seems crazy to me that H gives me these details, yet wants to D me.

I'm not sure what his questions about travel tell me. He asks, and clearly is bothered by it. Jealous? Doesn't want me to move on? Idk.... I suppose, if it's making him think about things, time will tell.

Oh, and Eric....I am waiting for my pic of you in that outfit.... wink

uR, yeah.....that Eric. grin

I think it's wise for me to not be making any decisions about men or dating. I really am enjoying time with me and the kids right now. I have a clear view of who I want to be. I also know I'm not there yet.

It will be a lifelong process....although, there will be a point where I'm far enough along to know when, or "if", it's time to move on.

When I get lonesome, or miss good times with H, I think about what it would be like to date. That said, I do entertain the thought....the "what if" part....but I am VERY aware of the fact that I am not emotionally "out of love" with my H.

Hypothetically, if I was over him, and dating, I would not want a man to date me if he was still in love with his wife. With that in mind, I wouldn't feel good if I did that to someone else.

Work was awesome, again. I'm exhausted..... sleep sleep sleep
