I've taken some advil and heat. It felt much better this morning. But I shouldn't have done so much yard work.

Good.  Stay away from the yard work.

Everytime after DW Wife Betsy watches an episode of "Hoarders," she begins manically straightening up the house.  I try to encourage her to watch as much as possible.  :)


You had better hope that she doesn't straighten you right out the door!

So, DD Ben is awesome.  He was blocked into the last moment of The Wiz yesterday and is very happy with it.  He went right to his bed by the piano and went to sleep.  He's such a great dog.  Very mellow, easy going, loves the dog park, etc.

As for me, well, as for me.  It's been a tough "emo" week.  Having a hard time accepting the new reality - which may be almost 2 months old, but still seems foreign to me.  It feels like a relapse of emotions, and at times feels like a bad dream.  I really thought I was over that, but it seems that I'm not.  So... I'm hoping this will pass and DD Ben and I can get on with our life.  It's all I can do NOT to contact the ex, as I'm sure I won't get the response I'd like.  So, why bother.

We're off to camp now. 

DR Matthew, a breakup does not make for an easy recovery. And, contrary to Mr Jerry Herman, time often heals nothing. Do not call the ex, go to the part with DD Ben, enjoy your freedom, and know that you have friends and work to help you through the loneliness and the bad times. I can only wish you well.


Not that Jerry Herman needs the likes of me to defend him  :) , but the character said at the end of the song "time heals everything but loving you."
 

I've heard too much of that "time heals everything" phrase this week. Unfortunately, for me, both cases involved incest ("The Sound and the Fury" and "The Kalevala"). Ewww.

I just watched an episode of "Hoarders" on the computer, Jane. I am also doing some straightening up.
I'm afraid with my house in its current state, I'd belong on that show. But the dishwasher was installed today, so a few dishes at least can come clean.

Don't know that I want to write tonight. I may edit the papers I've written, though. Or I may just sleep. Sleep is good.

Richard and I went to the First Friday open house at our new Pendleton Art Center.  We ate a light supper from the cafe there, then wandered through the studios and chatted with our favorite artists.

I am very tired this evening.  It has become more and more exhausting to try and get around using my cane.  Today I stopped to get some groceries, and I was only half-way down the first aisle; and I suddenly just knew I couldn't do it.  So, I turned around, went out to my car, and I drove home.  Fortunately there was nothing "vital" that I needed, but tomorrow I have to shop.
