I missed this because I was travelling, but I saw how busy you were, and realised that's probably why you haven't posted! I wanted you to know that I was thinking of you, though, and to let you know too that I'm sorry about the relationship with Martha. It was special while it lasted, and if that's all it is, then it was something good in all your lives at the time.<br /><br />Hoping you're coping with the changes in your life, have enjoyed the summer, and that all's well. Sending love.<br /><br />Malihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03928262526502319303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4129722175911979282.post-49684259272429378252017-06-09T18:03:14.208-07:002017-06-09T18:03:14.208-07:00I thought I had commented on this before; apparen...I thought I had commented on this before; apparently not! You have had a full plate! -- lots of good news, & some not so much. I am particularly sorry that you've fallen out with Martha.

I empathize, I'm in the middle of doing something scary at work and I alternate between eager anticipation and paralyzing fear.<br /><br />Congrats on your condo being under contract so quickly!

A huge cheer for being done with diapers - that sounds marvelous! Also crossing fingers that all goes well with the condo sale. <br /><br />I'm sorry to hear about the falling out with Martha. It's hard and hurtful when relationships fall apart.

After so much struggle it sounds like the breakthroughs are coming.<br /><br />Although I understand the complicated feelings about teaching a new course. Exciting but nerve wracking.<br /><br />I hope the uncertainty around where you will live is resolved soon, and positively. It sounds like you could use a safe haven at the end of your day to relax (as much as is possible with 4yo twins).<br /><br />Long walks are the best. You are lucky to be able to take them regularly.torthúilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07738803052167620020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4129722175911979282.post-42443104507850825202017-05-25T13:48:33.656-07:002017-05-25T13:48:33.656-07:00Wow!

Break out the champagne.<br /><br />So true this: " life can be insanely simple and complex all at once."<br /><br />Also, though, I'm really excited for your students. How lucky are they?<br /><br />Good luck with the transitions. I hope Grey gets good news, and soon.Lori Lavender Luzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15394441222262940632noreply@blogger.com
