- paid off my car,
- bought a new computer (and a cool game to run on it), and
- booked a flight for me and the kids to Colorado in May.
That's right, 20 years after my college graduation, and about 18 years after first starting college himself, my husband will have his degree. And I am going to be there to make darn good and sure it actually happens. So far, things are looking promising. And there was much rejoicing.
After graduation, TM plans to head back to the South, where the livin' is easy (or at least cheap) and the unemployment rate is better than most places. He may end up being a middle-school teacher, and that would be just fine. The boys are thrilled at the whole situation.
Yeah, we're working on working things out. My therapist has been a great help; we've been able to see her together several times when he's been out here for visits, and it's done more than our 6 months of marriage counseling elsewhere. I think the separation has been good for us.
At any rate, I know I'm feeling good these days.

Fantastic! Good luck.
What game did you get?
And thanks for the reminder. Maybe I'll finish up my taxes this week . . .
Jack: I pre-ordered The Sims 3, which comes out in June. Sims 2 is my favorite novel-writing tools, as well as an addicting distraction.
Of course as soon as I spent all that money, my windshield cracked (and so did my tooth). Oh well, easy come, easy go.
Woohoo!
You're coming to Colorado? What part? May is a great time to be here, your chances of snow are pretty small, but the summer fires shouldn't have started raging across the landscape. :-)
Enjoy your vacation....you earned one!
(I'm gonna be extremely envious if you guys ending up moving somewhere warm, though.)
