I just had an explosion of good things in the last hour or so… ceeeel-e-brate good times, c’mon!! duh-duh-ta-duh-duh!!
Just got the phone call that our house refinance is going through, and we close on Friday… YIPPEE! This refinance has been pending for months, and I was starting to think that it just might not happen. [...]

Dr Jerry today. We were trains passing in the night, or ships, or… hell, anyway, we totally didn’t connect. I kept trying to talk about the wrongness and sadness of wanting something so badly that should be a natural process, and he kept trying to tell me that these are MY issues and no one [...]

My relationship between weight & emotions — I’ve been thinking about this topic for a while, but haven’t taken the time (or been brave enough?) to put it on paper. Maybe I’ve just been reluctant to back myself into a corner, because putting it out there into words makes it more real and thus less [...]

Sue said that she was gonna hurt me if I didn’t post, so here I am. Nothing big has been going on — I’ve actually just been living vicariously through the fabulous recent happenings with Holly, her hubby, & their newly arrived little Charlotte. I honestly haven’t seen such a beautiful newborn since our Maggie, [...]

My last post was very self-centered and egocentric, which is actually a pretty accurate representation of my mind-state during the last few days. I’m telling myself — and I honestly believe — that self-reflection and -examination is an inherently selfish process. Yep, that’s me letting myself off the hook.
This weekend has been incredibly difficult. It’s [...]

I’ve been an utter blob for two days now. Car’s still in the shop (hey, $600 worth of repairs takes a while, apparently) so I’ve been somewhat stranded. Of course, there’s always cleaning the house or doing laundry, neither of which require a car, but I choose to use my car-less state as an excuse.
I [...]

Bobby and I worked through it all by ourselves (for now at least) without bloodshed or Dr Jerry. And then we managed to have a good evening. I fixed a super-healthy, low-calorie meal that tasted like ass, so we ended up heading to Wendy’s, then to Jen & Tom’s for some tivo’ed American Idol. I [...]

I’ve gotten to know Bobby better during the last two days, and it surprises me. Maybe “better” is the wrong word… maybe “again” would be the more appropriate choice. It’s been a combination of several circumstances:
First, and this is the biggest change, Sue moved out and we’re suddenly faced with just each other. We haven’t [...]

The new year is looming, and I’ve, in my eternally pessimistic way, been seeing more of the same. But this during the past week or so, I had a realization… and although it seems ridiculously obvious, it hit me like a brand-new thought.
Change? Yes, I can. (Yep, I just totally ripped off Obama’s campaign… I [...]

First of all, a very sincere thank you to all my blogger and IRL friends. Really, thank you. I read each of your comments, and they mean much, much, so very much. So thank ya’ll.
Felt like I turned a corner yesterday… is it just me or does this constant corner-turning seem like we’re heading around [...]
