I figured I would try and beat you guys to the punch this time. I'm sure you guys have been reading and have probably posted and I just missed it. I don't post myself much anymore but anyway, just thought I would drop a note and say I was thinking about you and hope things are going well. As always, prayers to you both, RR

Hi RR,

Been thinking about you, too. I'm doing alright. I've been here a bit lately, trying to help other folks. Kinda helps taking my mind off stuff. I've also been real busy at work which is good. ;-)

How are you doing? Have you moved yet?

yes, i'm officially all moved in and i actually like it better, so it was a mixed blessing to move. there's even quite a few people from church that live near me as well. i'm doing okay, think i'm kind of in a funk. seem to not have any energy again. i'm sure a lot of it has to do w/my subconscious thoughts and feelings about everything. pretty much did some marathon sleeping on sat, sun, mon (didn't go to work), and still feel "tired." hoping i'll get some energy back. i get into these "funks" now and then. yes, i need to start going back to the gym because i'm sure that will help. i went on monday for 30 minutes but that was the first time in probably 3 weeks.

feeling very out of control and helpless in regards to the house. it is in the path of the hurricaine and that's where all my stuff is. trying to work everything out w/my lawyer before i sign the paperwork necessary to put it on the market and that is taking more time than i thought. still planning on a trip to florida the week of columbus day. probably will be my last. it'll give me a chance to have one more yard sale, get some paperwork done w/the base, have the movers come, and if we're close to closing on the house i can do it then as well. my lawyer doesn't think we will go to mediation so he doesn't think i'll need to make a special trip for that. he's confident everything can be done by mail. we will see......

enough about me, what kind of work do you do? you can always email me if you don't want to say here, i forgot that i had your email address <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" /> silly me. but i didn't have one for heroswife and it seemed like everytime i was going to post to her or you she would post to me so i thought i would try to beat her this time <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> anyway, gotta go, prayers to you and i'm glad you are doing okay and hope you can work things out in your mind if nothing else, God Bless, RR

hey roughroad..

have you heard from Heroswife lately? I look at her recent post and it looks like the last time she posted was on the 7th? I'm kind of worried about her?

Hugs,
LJB

No I haven't heard from her either. The only thing I can really think of is that maybe this is the time for their change of duty station. Don't know if she had any trips planned or not. I'm worried too that's why I bumped this up. She didn't say that she was going to stay away from the boards either. Let's keep this thread active until we hear from her okay?

God Bless, RR

NOT to butt in here but:

The last I heard from Heroswife, her sister had just found out that her H was cheating as well.

Just a guess, but maybe they are coming together as sisters in arms (in the real world) and using each other to lean on and start there own "BS club" if you will.

I know for a long time HW really didn't have anyone to confide in or get understanding from at home. Sounds like now she does. (Sorry for her sister of course....but I take comfort that HW now has some support).

Perhaps they are "venting" to one another, instead of on here. In person, is much more interactive.
It does help to have someone who understands.

Also keep in mind, that HW had been slowly tappering off her posts even before that.

Would be nice to know how things are going though.

IF YOUR OUT THERE:
Heroes wife and Heroes big sis, take good care of each other.
The validation you can give to one another is "Priceless."

Take care all

Thanks TR, i think that would be great for HW as well to have somebody to physically talk to but would wish she would just tell us she's backing off the forums just for my peace of mind <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

Hello roughroad and top rope, this is Heroswifes, big sis, she has been very busy with me lately. Sorry for stealing her away from you guys. I feel very lucky for having her as a someone to fall on. In my eyes she is the HERO not her H. She has been so much stronger than I in this whole situtation. On my thread today she posted on how I was there for her, but I don't see it that way. She has always prevailed in life, she has always come out standing tall. I never doubted her ability to find her way through this. She has always been my rock instead of the other way around. I will tell her to check in. Its nice to know so many people care
