Ash: Thank you for your prayers. I welcome them and pray for you and others on this boards as well. The one thing that this crisis has done was create a spiritual awakening for me. I've never felt such peace. I am blessed.
My ex-H texted me that his dad is going in for a heart cath...they cardiologist is suspicious regarding his dad's heart. I picture in my mind, if something happens to his dad. How will he react? Will he hide or will he seek me for comfort? Hmmm.
I wish for his dad to live many additional years, it's just a natural thought. My ex will call me, after the procedure. I will visit during my lunch hour.
I spoke to my inlaws tonight. I'll be there for them. You can't take my love away. It's mine to give.
that is because of the wonderful, kind hearted person you are!
I hope everything goes well for fil, my prayers are with you and your family!
you cant help but picture what will happen...its natural, i do it all of the time...very hard not to especially when it concerns any of those we have so much love for!
please let us know how things go.
on another note, i thought you would like this...
I finally went and got the haircut i have been debating for almost 2 years...laughed in fear when i saw just under 12 inches of my hair go falling to the floor!
was kinda upset she didnt take just a little bit more...could have given it for Locks of Love... got a new color and even a great flat iron to be able to go with it straight...feels GREAT!!!! so looong over due!
girls got theirs done too, they look adorable as always! seems weird to say, but i feel like little by little im finding me again!!!
always the penny pincher...tonight we splurged a bit...was well worth it!

lost: Isn't that fun? A girls day!!! Why not do what you want with your hair-heck it some of the thing that we still can control.
I bet you are beautiful. Thank you for your post.
My father-in-law is doing fine. They found coronary disease (no surprise) but nothing serious. He had some calcium deposits but no angiogram or open heart stuff. What a relief.
I kept in touch via ex-H. He was friendly. I told them to tell all that "I loved them." He kept me up to date. Asked my advice regarding a weekend business trip and if he should keep. Dad is out of the woods. Why not? Besides...I get my D an extra weekend to boot! Sneaky me...
I'm going to meet my friend, H, for coffee in a minute. I love you guys!
oh CW! im so relieved to hear that! im with believe too! think of us and enjoy your coffee!!!
I dont think i look any different...boy did i get a lot of compliments today though! what an ego boost!!! loved it and felt sooo good!
when h saw it today...well, he even complimented on what a good change i had made!
all has been calm and im thankful for that today, not to sound stuck up cause if you know me...im the farthest thing from it but i was in the spotlight today for the 1st time in a long time! it felt great and im grateful i am going to sleep in the same great mood i woke up in this morning!

I love the fact that you are feeling wonderful LOST.
I love the fact that WREN you are energized and moving forward with your life.
Believe...I think that your H distancing himself is going to be in YOUR benefit...you just watch!
cpt confused: I loved the saying after I wrote it!!!haha
Many beautiful people here. Coffee conversation was good...two hours worth.
I was going to a singles group tonight but I have my dear D and want to hang with her. I've been busy many nights this week-gym, coffee, etc. I can be "single" next week.
Good for you CW! You seem to sound perkier. I wish I could go and stay busy but the kids are still so young that I am stuck home alone with my thoughts at night.
I hope my H staying away will work in my favor. If not for him missing me then for me to finally get over him.
Believe- I know what you are saying about having young children, it is difficult to get out. Can you aim for getting out of the house once a week? It will do wonders....
CW- I like hearing that your doing well, I am sure you will still experience "down" days but you are putting one foot in front of the other and thats good.
A singles group? What exactly does that entail? I suppose its exactly how it sounds, how did you go about and find out about it?
Glad coffee was good, just talking with someone has a way of healing a bit.
Ash: The singles group is through my church. Many of the larger churches have them. There are a few bible study things and some mingling as well. I didn't go Thurs. but will go this coming. I don't know what to expect.
My D is having a difficult time with me! I am having a difficult time with my D. She is moody. However, we had a conflice after work today. She hung around the house and did nothing on her big chore list (2 items). Then she quit talking to me when I told her to do them. Then at dinner...more attitude with "I want to live with Dad lingo." That pisses me off...but she doesn't know it.
I am having one of those weekends with Ray....
thinking of you
glad that she doesn't know that you are pissed -
I am like an open book with my kids ...have to get a bit smarter...
