Congrats on the offer on the house!
Re: ***Laud***
Thanks guys. I really appreciate it.
I'm not so great at talking about it yet, but in a nutshell: Things are very amicable, we're both in counseling, & we're still best friends. Heck, along with one of his poor coworkers who's also going through this, we've joked about having a joint divorce party & buying each other iPads as parting gifts. Yes, we have a strange sense of humor. Our paths were definately meant to cross in life; they just weren't meant to stay that close together forever.
With the support of a lot of good friends & a lot of wine, I can't really complain about life at the moment. It could always be worse. Always!
Ditto! I had no idea you were going through so much the past few months. **hugs** to you!!!
My goodness Laud, you have been through a lot. It definitely sounds like you are dealing with it in your own way, and you have a good outlook on it, so I'm very thankful for that. If you ever need some online friends, we're here for you!!
Congratulations on the raise, and on your first step to a new life with the new house.
Oh, and I'm sorry for butting in, btw.
Oh my! I just read it. I'm so sorry Laud!
Congrats on your raise and house. You certainly have a lot on your plate.
I'll be thinking of you.
It's a little quad townhome in the 2nd nicest subdivision in town (I'll be perfectly safe running there in the evening). Nothing fancy, but it's 2BR, 2BA & 1,400 sq ft. More than enough for just me:
The house is beautiful! I'm coming over, we can get CRUNK, yo! :P Look at me, inviting myself over with promises of stupid antics and drunken shenanigans... how rude!
On a serious note, congratulations on the house and the raise. You seem to be handling the separation admirably, but if you ever need to talk to anyone I'm here to listen. Your outlook about it (and the myriad other things that you're going through) is a testament to how strong you are.
::::hugs:::::
:::butting in too:::
Your new house looks fantastic, love it! We're always here for you. ((hugs))
The new house looks awesome and I love the screened in porch! Congrats on the house and the raise!
You're a very strong woman, and you seem to be handling a lot of difficult things beautifully. ::hugs::
Can I just ditto this??? Your outlook is remarkable and admirable....and I have major screen porch envy, I want one bad!
