DYK with all of that being said, I do think some of Steve's feelings are coming from his impending 50th birthday.


DYK he already told me once that he feels a "mid-life crisis" coming on, and has picked out the car he wants!

dyk I think I'll keep Marisa into the no-cut sports like track, golf, cross-country, or swimming


dyk so far she's not really showing much interest in anything sports related so it may be a non-issue


dyk vocal music is looking more and more attractive as an area of focus


dyk she was asking questions about being famous like Selena Gomez the other day


dyk too bad an agent costs so much, her personality would get her in the door

dyk Deb, I can empathize with what you're going through based on what Mark is facing finding a new position


dyk his area of expertise doesn't deal with research and being published, but it does matter what degrees, certificates and programming languages one has in their arsenal


dyk he's got a ton of experience, but only a bachelor's degree, and none of the newer languages


dyk that being said, I think if you can find a therpist, or maybe a career-coach, who can help you sort everything out, it would be very helpful


dyk I would thing that having a neutral person with whom to share

dyk isn't Steve turning 50 soon?


dyk did you start the 50 years of Steve gift giving yet?


dyk it sounds like he's needing some attention and focusing on him every day during your gift giving should help


dyk especially since you're putting some much thought into it for him


dyk it's really hard when dealing with the kids all the time and then go into wife/lover mode


dyk also I know you have had lots of date nights especially over the summer when your babysitter is available.

dyk oh Deb...that's a lot of stress


dyk you're not being weak by needing help handling the stress during this period


dyk I think you should find someone that you can talk to.

DYK I finally have internet!!!

DYK Pete and I moved a few weeks ago to the best apartment ever! It's in exactly the neighborhood that we wanted to live in. I can walk to tons of stuff. It's great!

DYK we had cable and internet installed last week, but the internet wasn't working, so we just got it fixed today.

DYK work is going great! I love it!!! I'm a Rule 9 Intern, which means that until I pass the bar, I can represent clients in district court (like if they're charged with misdemeanors) by myself. I had my first hearing this week, and it went well. It was really short and the judge was really nice. I'm pretty sure my client was high though (he was charged with cocaine possession).

DYK anyways, now that I have internet and we're not living with my parents, I should have a lot more time to check in here. I've missed you ladies!!!

DYK I'm finally getting back on track with eating. I also found a gym yesterday and I'm considering joining it. I'm also thinking about getting P90x. I've heard LOTS of good things about it from friends and family.

DYK I finally feel like I have some self-control and motivation back to eat well. I'm really ready to lose these last 40 pounds. I just need to keep this feeling!

DYK the "50 years" thing won't start until mid-December; I'm just gathering items now.


DYK we're pretty good about not talking about the kids too much when we go out.
