Ah October... Change in seasons and where I start feeling the need to hibernate. MMMMmmmm sleep!
Anywho, what's been going on and what's in store. But first, Lori... dh and I are, what he has told me and we all know men have an odd sense of perception, going to actively try for our 1st this summer but I say we can start trying now since it could take a long time. He seems to think he has super swimmers. Men. Whatever dude! Yes I am still seeing Gina (thank the good Lord!) and I think it has definitely helped. I am also reading "Why Men Marry Bitches" and it is very insightful. I definitely would recommmend reading that or the "why Men Love Bitches". I personally like going online and buying the PDF copy since it is half the price but that's just me. Oh my I watched 300 last night (twice) and that is definitely awesome eye candy for women. Gerard Butler is a hottie! He was also in Phantom of the Opera. I think it is the confidence that is a deal winner for me.
My blog is updated with all the fun activity I have been dealing with. I had an altercation with a friend of mine since I told her that I didnt want to hear her complain the whole weekend about the same ol' thing. If you hate your job so much, then look for another and get yourself out of that situation.
As for October, it seems like a quiet month. Just a doctor visit and my friend's bday. This coming weekend is blessing of the pets so I am taking Piper Jo. This will be the 3rd game in a row that I have missed a Spartan game but you know, I feel more relaxed to get away from that for a bit. I may have to do that next year! :)
I think I covered pretty much a summary of my goings on. What's everyone else getting into? Any vacations?

The Life Of Your Dreams
Waking Up
Many of us are familiar with the experience of waking up to the fact that our lives are no longer working the way we have set them up. Sometimes this is due to a shift occurring inside ourselves over time, and sometimes it is part of the larger shift that is currently affecting all humanity. Change is happening at such an increased rate that it is difficult to predict what the future holds. As a result, many of the old ways of planning out a life are no longer applicable, and if we cling to them we feel strangely out of tune with reality. If we are in tune with the energies around us, we will begin to question ideas that just a few years ago seemed sensible.
In the simplest terms, the shift we are undergoing right now has to do with recognizing ourselves as being more than human, remembering that our earthly aspects are a very small part of who we are. In truth, we are multidimensional beings. When we begin to realize this, the life we planned for a limited conception of ourselves no longer fits. We must meet the needs and qualifications not only of our bodies but also of our souls. This realization dawns slowly for some and with the suddenness of a bolt of lightning for others, and we all must find the way that works for us to integrate this new and larger sense of self into our life plan.
Sometimes a drastic change feels totally right, and overnight we might decide to sell our home and move to another country or quit our job and begin a second career. Other times, we allow the changes to proceed slowly, beginning perhaps with allowing ourselves to dream of a new life or just to ask the deeper questions that encourage us to discover our true purpose in life. Either way, know that this process is a natural sign of the growth we are all going through, and trust it to guide you to the life of your dreams.

Day 3 - I thought last night would of broke my mood until I found out something.
Hi Darla,
For what it's worth... I think you DO care--you care enough to be upset at dh and to have awareness of that enough to share it here. That's a GOOD thing!
For me personally, I think I'd feel hurt too---that he listened to her rather than you. I think I'd also make it clear to my friend in a calm but firm way that what I share with her is between her and I and I'd ask her why she went to dh. Things like that would make trust difficult for me but at the same time I can see that it was likely a gesture of genuine concern and caring and wanting to see you supported at home. As for dh, I suppose that too could be looked at in a better light. He could have ignored your friend or downplayed it. And again, men aren't always comfortable with big discussions on emotional stuff. Perhaps his "language of love and concern" was something more concrete--like suggesting ordering take out so you didn't have to cook?
Keep hanging in there with us, Darla. You WILL feel good again! And please remember that if you aren't feeling safe, I'm sure Gina would WANT you to call her! Hugs, Lori
