Quick Hello
sKePTiKal:
Good to hear from you - I wondered how your adventure was progressing!
IMO, fwiw, when things come up like this to deviate you from your course... it's OK - and better than OK - to be flexible enough to deal with the important stuff before proceeding. Can't imagine how awful it would be to have started on the adventure, van breaks down, boy gets ill... I've had kind of a monkeywrench thrown into my grand design, too. You just have to roll with the punches.
You'll get started when it's time to get started and you're as ready as can be.

Yup, Tupp.
DD15 having the experience of a lifetime, she is.
It's so huge I go between feeling overwhelmed for her, to feeling unbridled hope, to feeling fearful she won't get the lessons, and on it goes.... mostly it's joy and expectation for the best possible outcome.
As for you experiencing another 6 months added to your prison term........ it might end up that a shift was possible bc of that time.
I find I put off judgement about things, I might otherwise perceive to be negatives, but end up being catalysts for positive outcomes.
(((Tupp and son)))
I'm just glad you can see the light at the end of the tunnel......
That you're still traveling towards that end: )

Yes you're spot on Skep, if all of this had happened at the same time as us moving and/or heading off on our travels I'd have cracked, I think! I just feel a bit like I can see a delicious cake right in front of me but I'm not allowed to eat it :) My boy seems to be picking up so we have been able to get out a bit more; the van's booked in to get some more work done and we are due to go away for a couple of nights at the end of the month - I think I just sulk a bit when I don't get my own way :) Lol, last bits of growing up to do, perhaps :)
sKePTiKal:
LOL, as for not being able to dive right into that yummy cake...
I think how we do that matters just as much as being able to do it. Not sure I know how to explain that right now, other than the words I just offered up. It's different every time and for everyone - and even for yourself. I don't think it's a totally conscious process either. But it is a manifestation of healing that's already taken place.
All things in due time.
