That is a good list.

Keep us posted. Sorry that countrydude is not wanting to spend more time. I never like that when it happens to me!

Ahh, spring cleaning...the internal kind!


April- this list you just made is a great start. I did the same sort of list about a month ago by making a list it kind of helps you follow through. I figured out that my list of priorities that focused on myself was the key. I won't lie- sometimes it is hard, because I have had a strong tendancy in the past to put my own interests and needs on hold while being totally available for my SO, which led to some disappointments and certainly to low self esteem.

I used to not make plans because I too was hoping a particular someone might want to get together. I finally got tired of that and started really spending time with my friends. You are so right about how important those relationships are. I have some really close friends that I can count on anytime I need to!

Sounds like you have really been doing some spring cleaning thinking! Get out there and have some FUN! When my fiances were REALLY tight I would just hang out with friends or have them over. (I can't believe how Pac-Sun's life has come together will all of her changes! WOO HOO!!)

And you also don't want them to think that you have nothing else going on.
