Re: OT: sorry for note going wrong place

October 17, 2011

Thanks so much, Carolyn. I got a wonderful note back from my friend about it

too, understanding my decision and supporting it fully. I feel much better

about the decision I made. As soon as we get the credit card paid off I'll

have that monkey off my back and can feel more comfortable doing fun things.

I just got a call to sub this week and for a possible 2nd job, not sure I

have time to take it and I doubt it will pay much but I'm going to call back

and find out about it at least. We're doing okay and will be fine, just

gotta keep things really mellow as far as spending goes and that's okay too.

My daughter just had a birthday and is already thinking about what she wants

for Christmas so I asked my son if he had any ideas and he really didn't. He

said, " Is it okay if I don't feel like I need or want anything? " I told him

it was absolutely okay, and that it means he's satisfied and happy with what

he has and that is absolutely awesome. I wish I could feel that way more!!

:-)
