Hi ladies,

HOW ARE YOU?

I don't know HOW I became so absent from the forums....but I'm back to check in.

A quick run down on my life.

God is good, he IS able, and HE is enough!

My life is not perfect - there are still major bumps in the road, but I keep looking up.

Breanna my 19 year is doing well - she is in the process of breaking up with a long term (horrible) boyfriend. It has been a blessing to support her through it. She has a great job taking phone orders for bare-essentials - she is VERY good at it.

Levi - 17 year old boy is doing well in MD. He is going to school, started working out, and is now boxing. His spirit has changed considerably - he is grateful and loving towards me.

My working situation...I continue to LOVE and build my Send Out Card Business - it brings me incredible joy...

I do "Office Depot" outside sales to help me support myself while I build my business... and I took a part time position as an "assistant director" for BNI Colorado. I get to train and mentor chapters. I LOVE THIS POSITION, it was hand made for me.

Mark and I are still dating - 15 months. It is going VERY well. He is a gift. We talk about marriage, and we talk about not getting married. Both of us were very burned in our previous marriage. We are great companions. I've realized that a marriage certificate is not a guarantee in writing.

Situation with my ex - still fighting in the courts to get my court ordered maintenance. He doesn't pay me a dime. He just wants me to "take responsibility for myself". After 21 years of marriage and my being a "sahm", you would think he would get that I need some time to get on my feet.

Anywho, this is the basics of what is going on.

Friday Mark, Austin (his 9 year old son) and I head for yellowstone park to camp. Can't wait.

Hope you all are well, I look forward to catching up!

HUGS!

danita

Danita,
Popping in long enough to say it all sounds so wonderful for you and you can bet everyone here is so happy that life is treating you with kindness and grace. You are very deserving.

One of my favorite places in the world is Yellowstone. I know you will have a fab time. Good for you!

JJ

Sounds like even with the stupid ex acting up you have your life in order and are moving on and upward all the time. So good to hear from you. Enjoy Yellowstone, it should be amazing this time of year with everything in bloom.

You sound great Danita. Mark sounds like a great match for you.

At nine years old, Yellowstone will be perfect. Old enough to remember the trip as well as appreciate it. What a wonderful gift to him.
