Lola, do you still have contact with him? I just want to reach out and hug all of you for the pain you've been through.

No, Dianne. The children and I have not seen him since his ordination and we do not have any wish to distract him from his life now. But, the gentle soul that he is and kind-hearted as his superiors are, he was allowed to write to us to help "see" us through our "firsts" without him.

Hey all,

I've been terribly busy. I started a job with Office Depot as their outside sales rep and have been training.

I so feel like this job is a provision from God - that it takes me off my ex-husbands' roller-coaster (whose paycheck was garnished this week because he isn't pay the support he agreed to pay in the divorce).
This gives me a chance to build my business - and not worry about making bills.

The grieving is still cropping up......it's now been 10 months since the actual divorce went through and 19 months since I found out about my ex's lies.

For you praying ladies, feel free to pray for my kids and I - that people and circumstances won't distroy our already fragile relationship.

So, I am definitly more hopeful, but still coping with the pain as it springs up.

Thanks for asking dots!

hugs,

danita

Hi Danita, I'll definitely pray for you and your kids...well done on getting your job...hugs to you, xxx

So happy to hear again from you, Danita. It's nice to get an update. I, too, will be praying for you and yours. One step at a time...sounds like things may be looking up for you!

Hey girl, great to hear from you. Office Depot doesn't know how lucky they are.

Wahoo, the depot is crawling with gorgeous men in those tight jeans and tee shirts. Keep your eyes open my dear. My friend Sandie works in a depot out here and has met a dozen really cool guys...Its a regular male meat market...
Bon A'Petite...

Well my friends,

Today is a "hysterical" day (I mean historical). LOL.

Today would have been my 22nd anniversary had I chosen to stay with a cheating, lying man.

As much as I have grieved the "unraveling" of my family in the last few months...today is going exceptionally well. In fact, me and my guy (boyfriend) are going to go out for dinner tonight to celebrate me "un-anniversary". Wooo hooo, there IS life after divorce.

Danita

Hey Danita, happy UN-anniversary! You're doing great!

Great, Danita...congrats! Yes, there IS life after divorce. Your heart can be peacefully because it's not being continually torn apart by anyone. Hope you had a great evening and today can be the first day of your new future once again!
