You're text was great, and yes, that would have been too much!

Keep doing what you're doing. Don't let this change in her knock you off your path.


Thanks for keeping up, and responding! Thanks for the attaboy too! I'm working hard at it. It's a darn rollarcoaster...sometimes it's up, and sometimes it's down! Sometimes I feel OK, and other times I feel pretty down. I intend to keep doing what I'm doing.

ps - she never did respond to the text!

She just texted me this...

"We'll be safe. The kids can keep in touch. Thanks for watching Spooky (the cat)."

Send messages from Spooky to the kids. Let Spooky talk for you. Spooky can say a lot more than Antlers can right now. Have fun being Spooky.
Cheers

That's a good idea, Coach! Thanks! I'll send the kids a text message tonight from Spooky!

Had a pretty good day today. Kiddos are with their mom on vacation, and I was off work. I've sent the kids texts from the cat for the past 2 nights, and they get a kick out of it.

I rode my bicycle 82 miles today!

82 miles! That's a good kind of hurt.

Wife just texted me this...

"You will not believe Pearland."


It's a city we used to live in, and they went there today while on vacation, just to see it and look at our old house, etc.
I want to text her back, and show interest, etc.,...any ideas on what to text her back?
I've thought about something like this...'I bet it's changed so much. I'd like to hear more about it when you get back.' But, I don't know if that'd be too much!
So, any ideas folks?

That's the one I sent. My last sentence was 'hope you're taking pictures.'


Did 50 more miles on my bicycle today...did 155 miles over the last 3 days. Feels pretty good, although I'm sore and tired. Motrin and Michelob Ultra are helping with the aches and pains. laugh
Back to work tomorrow, then co-ed softball tomorrow night after work. I'm so used to having my kids when I'm off...this feels kinda different since they're on vacation with their mom.
