hi anyone interested in why I haven't been responding..

someone upstairs moved out, and took their router with
them.. which was responsible for the connection where I
live, (everyone's rent includes the connection.. ..and this
person was a long-time renter, so had taken on
responsibility for the network). Anyway, the new person
happens to have a router as well, but is having conflicts
and problems with IP's and *****.. ..(plus he's a real
fucking jerk knob - I tried to help him, but he thinks he's
savvy.. ..so I sit and stew, knowing what's wrong, but he
won't let me fix it). Anyway, I hope that gets sorted out
soon.. ..I'm going through withdrawal symptoms..

anyone who wants to contact me, can email me.. ..I have a
cell now, so I can at least read emails on it any time, and
offer short responses..

UPDATE:

baby's not here yet.. ..though we're looking at *any time*
soon, now.. ..his due date is easter.. .soooo, we'll see.

I've given notice to move. I'll be moving into the bsmnt
suite in M's house (seperate suite), so that I can be close
to the baby. but I won't be moving til May.. ..so..
..it'll be hectic.

and guess who called me last night? ds' mom. finally came
out of the woodwork.. ..she wants to approach some kind of
shared custody situation.. ..so, I'm just stalling that off
for now.. ..ds will be going through enough changes with a
new baby, without getting his estranged mother involved (as
well as *her* new baby - I just learned about), I think
it'll be best to ease into all these things with caution,
for ds especially.

mood-wise, I'm doing really well lately.. ..I think I have
hypomania.. ..I feel normal, balanced, healthy.. ..able to
cope well.. ..I know it won't last forever, but I'm
using it to get as much done and out of the way as
possible..

I want to thank everyone who's offered me support.. .I'd
like to respond to everyone, and name names.. ..but it's
easier for me to leave it at this, because I won't be able
to respond again anytime soon.. ..just wanted you all to
know that you've helped me immensely.. ..and I'm currently
hopeful... ..and not to worrry about me..

take care all.. ..and thanks

Ty

you must be really excited about the baby now. how's ds doing
with it? i hope he doesn't get too jealous of his new brother.
at least they won't be together all the time.

sorry to hear about his mom. i know how that complicates
things.

i'm so glad that you're feeling better!

no need to reply; i know what a nuisance that can be.
