What constitutes British Saturday morning television? Here it's lots of childrens programs plus some news shows for the adults.

The house is quite this morning.

My G-daughter and her Mom live with us now.
They've been with us since mid-January, and our place changed.
Yesterday they went back to central Oregon... just for the weekend.

But it's was nice to have a quiet breakfast with my wife.

Of course, by lunchtime tomorrow we'll both be looking forward to their return.

1. my plan to replace my addictions is working perfectly
old addiction: smoking.
new addiction: working out.

pretty much being the only thing that makes me feel good these days, it's difficult to not get addicted to it or be pulled into doing it multiply times a day.

Carrot had his first walk today

he isn't street legal for another week and a half, but vet said should be ok, after 48 hours, to go somewhere off the beaten track.

So Mum and I went off onto the moors with him

Yeah. Kids shows, cartoons, some news programmes and 'sofa chat' type stuff, moving into sports and cookery shows towards lunch.

I've written 2,000 words for what I jokingly call my novel in less than 24 hours. It happens it fits and starts. Maybe I'll finish it someday.

Today, it was beautiful outside and I and my mom and dad and younger brother and sissy-law and my three nieces and my older brother's chocolate lab (bro and wife out of town, my 'rents are the dogsitters) played outside. Me and S (2 of 3) made an obstacle course and we timed the girls, each wanting another turn to see if they could do it faster.

i have gotten almost 4000 shekels (about 1000USD) in military veteran benefits while i was away, which i didn't find out about until today, contacting the military veteran call center for completely different reasons... seriously you'd think they'd tell you those things? anyway it was nice to find out.

also i have a new business idea which i am researching about, i am loosing weight, i am getting into shape, i am mastering the art of stuffing myself on salads and i am fitting into clothes which i haven't fitted into in months.

the new breathing techniques i have learned a few weeks back are becoming increasingly habitual, and i have had only two panic attacks from thinking about my stepson in the last week (trust me it's a huge improvement). it isn't fading but at least i know what i am dealing with and know i can live with it - i am learning better and better to see those bastards coming.

knowing how much i obsess about birthdays (mine, hers, birthdays in general.. lov' em), since it was just my ex-wife birthday, i have the nice feeling of knowing she'll be expecting me to call or try to contact her, and that i am not (i am keeping to my no-contact-to-get-over-her rule), which will probably be a combination of relief and disappointment for her. its always nice remembering that the person your having such a hard time not thinking about is probably thinking about you.

i am starting to be able to look at other women sexually, which is a huge improvement.

my usual sense of optimism - the knowledge i can overcome every obstacle and always figure out a way - is coming back. my old energetic self... also it helps that i am over caffeinated like hell.
