I didn’t hate the black and yellow, but otherwise, yeah, feeling much the same way.
I had to give it some time to see how I really felt about it. Off Topic has been pretty dead since the change. Training logs keep moving forward at least.
I’m trying to get the hang of a new tablet and forum. This new tech stuff is pretty cheap and easy, but callouses on my fingers make these touch screen keyboards a pain in the butt.
Also, congrats Lo, that’s a big step!
We signed the contract on the land last Thursday, and officially broke ground today.
Mostly I’m nervous, but every once in awhile, a bit of excitement comes through. I keep second guessing a lot of the decisions we made, but every time I go and look at them, they make sense and I’m still happy with those choices. So now I’m just hoping that everything we worked through on paper actually works out as well in real life.
@LoRez I’m not sure how I missed the above post. The notifications for old stuff was messing with me, I guess. At any rate, congratulations! So, three months later - how is it going?
I went looking for this thread to say that I got engaged this morning. : )
Thank you. I feel so certain and happy. Not one single worry or bad feeling. I called my ex-husband first so he wouldn’t have to hear it as gossip and so the kids wouldn’t have the awkwardness of telling him, and he said they all seem to like Hockey very much. Which I knew - how could they not - but it was nice to hear.
I’m going to answer you in the other thread, but I have to do a whole-thread review and I’ve been busy doing a romantic overnight getaway and looking at my hand and polyurethaning floors and such. : )
Yes, four of them. It’s somewhat unusual to have that many and I felt that talking about them along with my work and relationship stuff would make it easy to identify me, so I didn’t. Mostly I didn’t want them to recognize their mom posting in SAMA. I’ve opened up about them recently because things have gotten so much tamer here, and they’re big now anyway.
My God, could you imagine if I had a wedding full of my “internet bodybuilders,” who know a shocking amount about poor Hockey? Ha. It would actually be pretty funny, now that I think about it. My kids! People would be stunned in a way that would probably have me laughing for years.
Here’s an official night-before-the-proposal picture, which counts because we were at an inn, so it was all one thing. You can see (Push) how manfully he’s holding my waist there. Or at least I assume that’s his hand and not some as yet unnoticed lumpy part of me.
