    Hi Ivonne,

    I left a comment before, but it didn't seem to go through. So if I repeat myself, sorry.

    Good for you for taking Tai Chi. I always wanted to. I heard it's great exercise. As for groups, I tried a separated/divorced group a couple of months ago. They were really nice people, but it didn't feel right so I haven't been back. I'm not sure if I'm ready. I feel like I'm in the middle place...not really married but not really single..just not sure how I fit yet. In the meantime, my main focus is to get back into the workforce. Since my resume lacks current experience, I'm taking some online courses. That, the boys, and the internet keep me occupied. LOL Have you tried any groups?

    Hi Ivonne,

    So far we've gone to the Smithsonian Native American and Natural History in DC. In Baltimore, we've done the Science museum and the Aquarium. We also checked out North Beach. Their Dad has taken them to Six Flags. I figure we might as well see all we can see, since I don't know how long we'll be here. What are you up to in NC?

    Hi Ivonne! Nice to meet you. Where are you now? Separated or divorced? Any kids? Since you're from MD maybe you can give me some good tips on places to go. Can't wait to hear back from you. :-)
