For the first time this summer I managed to make it to the pool. I only lasted an hour and half because it was so hot. Even being in the water it was miserable. The three previous summers I went to the pool with Laura. As I pulled up I got a little sad, but then remembered the four summers before her that I went by myself and I was just fine with it. I hate this adjustment of being single and having to do things by myself. But then the other hand, I don't think I am ready for a serious relationship because I am still nursing my wounds from Laura. I hate this in between stage I seem to be in. I can't wait until September 1 when my benefits go into affect and I can seek some counseling somewhere. I think overall I am doing great, but it will still be nice to talk to someone that give me suggestions on working through my anger and sadness.
My weekend has been good. I met S. yesterday and we spent the afternoon having lunch and doing a little bit of shopping. I did pick up the new book by Dog the Bounty Hunter. It's a very interesting book and I am already on chapter ten. Wow, he has had an interesting life. I am not sure what it is about Dog and Beth, but I just love them. I never miss an episode.
Each day I get close to 100 hits on my blog, but average about 5-10 comments per post and I have close to 90 people on my list of readers. So, I am asking you to send me some love. Leave a comment even if you have never left one before and just let me know you are still enjoying my blog. I know my blog has not been the most fun place to visit the last six months, but I do appreciate all your support.
So, come on now...show me some love.

Caroline- I love reading your blog every day. I am going through some hard things myself, and I have enjoyed the privilege of getting a little peak into your everyday world. I don't have too many irl friends, but I do love visting my blog friends everyday. ((hugs))

long time lurker...i read your blog everyday, just never know what to say
So did you make it to Hobby Lobby? I didnt go it was to fipping hot to walk out of the house lol.
I'm still reading your blog every day..I look forward to seeing what's going on in your life and how you cope with the ups and downs. It's therapeutic for me when I read blogs like yours, Lynilu's, etc. (If that makes any sense!)
Thanks for being there for me everyday! :)
(By the way, this is Jen..I changed my Blogger display name to just my initial..I'm thinking of returning to the blogging world with a "revamped" look!)
Always reading you, Caroline. Almost always comment, but sometimes just in a rush and only read.
We love you!!! Always read you just dont always feel like posting :) Sorry
Lurker here--sending good wishes to you!
I love Dog and Beth too!! Maybe it's because they have both overcome so much in their lives to be better people...gives us all hope!
Feel the LOVE man!
Sending the love girl....

I read and try to comment :)
I read almost every day and I enjoy reading,but like ari_sus says, I just never know what to say.
I know things are getting better for you and will be so much more when you look back and realize you have been able to go through all of this on your own. Thinking good thought for you, Caroline.
One day at a time. You have been going through some major changes in the last months.
If i can do anything for you, you know where to find me.
Hello there!
I have a similar hits to comments ratio, and I sometimes wonder who all those people are out there...
Hi Caroline. I never think I have anything good to say either...of course, that doesn't seem to stop me but some days...heh...It's raining here, come on over and cool off!
Hey, your blog is too fun!
Love!
Hey, look over here ----> Love!
Hi Caroline, love you and your blog. Caroline in the City is a nice place to come visit everyday. You are an inspiration to many of us who have been through or are going through similar things. You have class and integrity, traits hard to find in today's world. Keep going, you are a rock star in my book!

I still read your blog everyday that I'm online! Sending you love!!!!!!!!
I try to check your blog most days. I'm at work so I cant comment that often. I was Baptist, so I understand you. Love hearing about your struggles and joys.

I comment alot, but here I am again! And I will have to check out Dog's new book, thanks for the reccomendation!
Wow 100 hits but only 5-10 comments. That's alot of lurkers (I have them too). I know what you mean, but you are so much better off without Laura. You'll find someone - when it's time!
Good for you for pushing through the memories to try to enjoy the pool. Too bad it was so hot that even the water wasn't a relief.
