EG and I've had some downtime since he's taken vacation with his kids.

Good for you, Isys, for making the most out of your time, and doing things that interest YOU!


So often when we're in committed relationships, we pine away at home when our SO is unavailable.

That's awesome you are enjoying your "you" time. Sometimes I think it is nice to have time away from each other. It brings a new sense of renewal and self. And then when you get together after the absence it feels even better, you know?


I have to admit I am exhausted just reading about your activites. lol.... but it's great that you do it!! You are quite an inspiration. And I'm jealous about the horseback riding!!

I took western riding lessons as a girl then got a horse. That was fun...my neighbor took English lessons and she was really good. You will love it!! How fun. Too bad your dd won't go. I think that WOULD be a great mom/daughter thing to do.


My dd would love lessons with me but so far I have not been able to afford that. Maybe if I get the new job!

DD said to me "well you know CPR, if you can get hurt you can give yourself CPR"
