Yeah SD. I agree with the others. We've all been there, but sometimes I just want to shake you and tell you to kick that broad to the curb. Enough is Enuf.

Not trying to be mean. I think we all want to end each other's pain and protect each other around here.

12/25/06 - Dday - WH promised NC. Plan A in effect. Thought we were in recovery.

6-3-07 - Dday#2 Found out NC never took place and A never ended. Found MB NC promised again, but WH would not write NC letter.

9/07 - Dday #3. Still lying and sneaking around. Plan B implemented
WH wants nothing to do with me

I know you aren't the only one.

I'm ready to be done with the marriage. So that I can at least look around and see what moving on might feel like.

A few minutes ago I took a couple of roses from my yard to one of my colleagues I don't really know--I just pass her in the hallway occasionally. It's not a big deal--I bring roses to my other female colleagues semi-regularly, but this is the first time I've brought any to someone I didn't really know (and someone who catches my attention when they walk past).

I don't pine for the SCQ, but I still long for it to be the way I think it should be. I haven't finished struggling with God. Not all the way, anyway. Sometimes I need BR to thump me with the Hammer of Acceptance.

Oh, sorry. I thought Chai was talking about BR in the quote above, then I see further below that SD ASKED for her to knock him with the Hammer of Acceptance. crazy

Good lord, you must LIKE the pain, SD.

Yer funny, Foxy.

I don't see where I ASKED for it, just mused that sometimes it seems to be called for, or maybe appropriate.

That sometimes I am stubborn and thick-headed. I certainly don't know anyone else like that.

Fox,

Is that what they call sadomasochism?

I'd be happy to smack you upside da head when you need it, Guy. After all, that's what friends are for! Abusive friends, but friends- no less. grin

Oh, and I'm tellin Foxy you eluded to her stubbornness (nah na nah na boo boo)

I've been kind of counting on you guys for that.

I get DD5 tonight. I'm thinking about taking her to extended hours at the zoo.

DS8 didn't want us to go to the zoo without him, so we're holding off on that til tomorrow. Now I'm thinking about going bike shopping. For a pink one with tassles coming off the handlebars.

On the way home DD5 told me she told the SCQ that POSOM is a bad guy (this after a discussion of smoking being bad for you, that neither of us will ever smoke, the POSOM smokes and is thus dumb). I'm sure that went over well.

Is that for YOU or for DD?? laugh

Out of the mouths of babes,,,,,

And I'm sure that the smoking was not the only reason she told SCQ that, but it was one that was ok for her to use to state her feelings. Good for her!

Just smile. You are raising good kids. SCQ will just have to deal with that, even when it smacks her in the face. You didn't set it up, she spoke from her heart,,,, from her own 'truth' and that's a good thing.

Yup, just like a turd in a punchbowl.

As for this...

It's a little girlie, but I suppose you can pull it off, being OLD and of feeble mind and all... crazy

Good luck on that one.

We found a pink bicycle with tassles on the handles (thus fulfilling the requirements) at the first store, and DD5 declared it to be perfect and just the one she wanted. Alas, there were no pink bicycles in my size, nor any with tassled handlebars.

Got an email from the SCQ about kid exchanges this weekend. All very businesslike.

I know! But we love chrisner anyway, so we'll overlook it for you, too.

Now wait.. I thought stubborn and thick headed was a requirement for being part of this club..

I mean.. for real, who takes promises/vows/relationships seriously these days.. it's like high school.. flitting from one to the other in society anymore.. Marriage just means you can have joint bank accounts and fight over them later..

Stupid stubborn, thick headed us's....


well.. better than evil robot us's I suppose...

I started working on this as a mental image and got bogged down somewhere. Like trying to calculate the square root of negative 1.

Google a guy named Hajime Sorayama (he's not Hungarian) to get the "picture".
