Whew. It looks like the negotiations are over! Hooray! P has served notice that he will not pay for my health insurance premiums when he leaves his job and I'm cool with that. I served notice that when that happens, I'll have to ask for the child support that the state says he's actually supposed to be paying because I'll be using the money that I need for basic living expenses to pay for health insurance premiums. so we are all set for the moment. What a relief.

And all kinds of cool things have been happening - I was able to eat a small amount of yams with ginger yesterday. It sounds like a small thing but it isn't! It is a total victory. Ginger? Yeah - it burned but I was able to taste it and the burning eventually went away. And it tasted so good and November-y!

Someone ordered the wrong latte so I got it for free (I had brought my own cup of tea from home to the coffee shop where I check my email)

As we snuggled in the dark, Pk was able to identify 13 emotions that he felt the other night. He is amazing. Truly amazing. AND he read Hop on Pop and Go Dogs Go all the way through with no help at all. More Hooray!

The air is full of blowing yellow and orange leaves (fall lasts a long time here) and the smell of woodsmoke.

A friend is gifting me a hair cut in ten minutes. Since I know I'm going to lose it all again, why bother to grow it out? I'm just going to stay with the cute fierce girl look for the moment.

If you haven't seen me lately you can go to Friendster.com and look up the username JustV - there are pix of us there.

I love life! Hope you do too!
