I still can’t figure out how to get to the end of people’s threads to read the entries or to post. I had to scroll through my entire thread to be able to post. What am I missing here?? (((Liz))) I am so sorry to hear about what your mother did. You must be so hurt! It does sound like you are going to have to keep those emotional boundaries up with her, especially if you are going to move up to the area she lives in. It will be cooler weather up there which will be a good thing. I don’t know how people live in extreme heat a good part of the year, where you live. I know I couldn’t do it. Yesterday I walked to a grocery store in the university area for exercise, and there was a slight breeze and it was raining fall leaves. It was beautiful to see and the air was fresh. Now that I have an exercise and eating program to keep me occupied, I have less urges to gamble. I am driving to Calgary to pick Danny up as he is flying in from St. Louis later today. I am starting to get myself organized in my new place. Yesterday I organized my closet and jewellery, and listed my CPAP machine for sale. I have lots of cleaning that I have been putting off such as cleaning kitchen cupboards and windows and a blind in my kitchen. As I get to know the city better I am liking it more. When I first moved here, I didn’t like all the traffic and noise but I’m getting used to that. I love all the selection in stores. I don’t miss the country at all. I am putting more structure into my life and have people to spend time with, and places I can go by myself if need be. I am much less lonely than when I first moved here. The only thing missing is a job even though I really don’t want to work. Carole
