Bob, very cute card. Your DD reminds me of my Katy. She is 12. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

Mr. Mayor...weeelll.... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

FAA-whats up? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

Is that good?? Woo hoo! Guess that is good news, LOL <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

FF, I am sooo frustrated I am freaking out. I just posted a new thread with huge trepidation after my last experience. But, I have no clue where to go from where I am to a Plan A when the DOrk is being, well a DOrk. ANd now he is frickin' brainwashing our DD! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/mad.gif" /> DD is so confused and stuck in the middle and Now I am the bad guy. AND my former friends are enabling WH's adultery <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/mad.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/mad.gif" /> AND I can't move DD until I have aperment residence. <img border="0" alt="[Teary]" title="" src="graemlins/teary.gif" />

{{{FAA}}} So sorry for your frustration. Kind of like mine, I think.

Thanks, Bob, for the answers. I have read ark's post several times (even saved it to the computer) but I wanted to see how you did things. I try and try but I can't tell yet if it is having the desired effect. I think something is working, though, at least a little bit because he is spending less and less time talking to her. (A cool down, maybe?) Mood swings even greater than usual. Even my S said he sees a change in him recently. Hope,hope,hope. Hence the increased feeling of need to do a terrific plan A. But thanks for answering my specific questions.

ROBBY!!!! WAY TO GO, DUDE!!! Anxious to hear more whenever you have time. Way cool. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="images/icons/cool.gif" />

Good on you Robby. Can I uncross everything now? I feel like a pretzel. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

F-Again - Hang in there. This will take some time.

Robby - Keep on keeping on and don't go out and celebrate just yet. It would be cool if you get the job in AZ. Hopefully your wife will come around.

Good evening everyone! Wow, we've been busy...

Mr. Mayor - Congratulations on the great interview... now go and close that deal!

Hey FF - Funny, funny, funny! How are you doing this evening?

Hey Bob - Glad you and Squiddy are doing well. How many more days until you head home? You stay away from those show girls out there, OK?

Hey Nikko - How's it going?

FAA - Hang in there... Orchid gave you some great ideas on your other thread... just relax and take some time out for yourself...

Hey Starz - It's hard work, but you're getting some great advice from Bob... take it slow, be patient, but most of all, be honest with your H...

THanks so much, RIF, {{{Believer}}}, always a sympathetic ear., ****STARZ**** (I had to give you more stars <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

I know it will take time. I am just chomping on the bit because I am sitting here so far away from DD and hearing this bs and helpless to counteract it right now. 2 Sleeps and counting.

I so wish I could push things. But I know that is totally wrong because that is what I want to do so it is wrong, right? Well you know what I mean. Be counterintuitive. Use Orchid's RB. Gee, I need some lines.

Hey Believer! You did it to me again... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" /> I'm just going to say "Hey" to you everytime I get on 'cause you always seem to get in a post right before I do! Hope all is going well for you this eveing...

Thanks, guys. I have been patient, and all that. Honesty is harder because it's usually impossible to begin a conversation with him. But I am trying. It's just been so long now (going on 8 months since I found absolute proof) and I guess I think that I am not doing a good enough Plan A or I would see more results. But I guess not. That's why I asked Bob about his Plan A. Just wanted another opinion on some details.

Okay, Robby, you've celebrated enough. Now, more details, please ....

IB had a meeting tonight and is now at the bar with someone. (Not Curly, just a friend, probably.) So I think I will go indulge in the hot tub while he's not here.
Will check back in a few minutes.

Evening/morning all! RIF, can you read my update on IR so I don't feel ignored? Pouting and feeling invisible here. <img border="0" alt="[Teary]" title="" src="graemlins/teary.gif" />

Doing good here guys even though my H just went to visit his enabling friend. You know why I am ok? Cuz he loves me! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

FAA-your DD is going to be ok. She just needs her mom. You will be there soon hon.

RIF -
What's up with no fishing holes in Afghanistan? Yikes! We Americans expect good benefits for our warfighters. I'm going to write to President Bush and insist that he arrange for a lake there, stocked with trout, bluegill, bass and catfish. Maybe a few salmon too.

Well, only a couple more months and I'll be back on Toledo Bend... and then the bass better watch out!

He FF - I'll check out your thread..... I've got a ton of meetings again today, but will make it a point to stop by. BTW, what's IR???

BTW, what's IR??? sorry, In Recovery board. Thanks RIF. Ok, done feeling ignored. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

Hey FF - Your post on the IR board is at the top of the page! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

RIF, you are a sweet man. Thanks so much. STill trying to encourage my man to email you. Maybe soon.

Vetoed Valentine Promotions

Valentines Day is here again, and with it the perfect opportunity for marketing departments the world over to romance investors and donors with Valentine-themed promotions! Here are some that didn’t quite make it off the drawing board:
Nevada State Tourism Board
“Nothing Says I LOVE YOU Like Legalized Prostitution and Gambling” T-shirts, baseball caps, and coffee mugs.

Ku Klux Klan
* Valentine’s Day Heart Burning, co-sponsored by Alka Seltzer

Vatican Public Relations Office
* “Naughty Altar Boy” limited edition ceramic figurine

American Heart Association
* Chocolate heart with marshallow-filled arteries. Simultaneously a touching token of love and a serious warning to an overweight sweetheart.

Daughters of the American Revolution
* Illustrated Kama Sutra featuring George and Martha Washington. Comes with authentic period wooden dental dam.

PETA
* Spray Paint a Red Heart on Joan Rivers’ Coat Competition

National Society of Organ Donors
* “My Heart Belongs to You (As Soon As I’m Brain Dead)” cards.

Department of Homeland Security
* Moving the Valentine’s Day National Warning System Code Red for a “High Risk of Lovin’”

Idiots,

I've just seen OM. We bumped into each other at our local shops.

We did talk. I needed to know that he and his w are doing ok after Rob told his w and they are. I needed to know that she doesn't hate me and she doesn't. I will tell Rob I saw him and he is going to tell his w that he saw me. They now have a policy of radical honesty and they don't even know about MB. His w was going to call me, not to yell or call me names, she just wanted some answers. I said, tell her I would have told her that he was never going to leave and he said, she knows that.

As to how I feel after this - glad I got some loose ends sorted (that they are fine and together), glad they seem to be following MB principles without knowing about MB.

Is it back to first day of NC? Nothing like it. I'm waiting for Rob to get home and I can't wait to see him. He really is the only man that matters.

Well, guys, what's your take on this.

Jen

Went to dinner with a friend of mine to celebrate. No drinks, until just now!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> He's Palestinian, went to a place called The Persian Room. Had to shower and wash my clothes when we got back!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />

Like I said earlier, interviews went very well. The guy who will be my boss was very helpful. Every time I said something he liked he'd say "Oh! you've got to mention that to XXXX, the hiring manager!!" <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Have a small background hurdle to disclose tomorrow on the phone and then the big interview with his boss on Thursday!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

For Pete's sake Robby, READ MY POST.

Jen
