Just to let you know - I think you've become one of the most mentally tough women I've ever had the pleasure of giving feedback to on these MB boards!

You will walk in with peace, and out with peace. Because that's who you've become

There's a quote I like by Jim Rohn - it's not the million dollars you make - it's who you become on your way to the million dollars.

Like you are becoming through this trial of financial, emotional and parental hardship - keep your focus on truth and your children and you can't get this wrong! You will be worth the most abundant of relationships as you graduate. You have become a woman of strength.

You can do this - just keep leaning on God's ample arm and know where your strength comes from.

The ? that made recovery possible: "Which lovebuster do I do the most that hurts the worst"?

The statement that signaled my personal recovery and the turning point in our marriage recovery: "I don't need to be married that badly!"

If you're interested in saving your relationship, you'll work on it when it's convenient. If you're committed, you'll accept no excuses.

Hi, I stopped af the office for a minute...coffee...laywer's office is five minutes away...

Thanks Buga, I didn't think about having a date to move back...

Passed by the house this morning PODS was sitting outside on the front porch, BOY he looks worried..

Oh well! mom is HOT today! Co-workers were joking with me about needing to go to court in holy jeans, and not looking so great! One look from the judge and he'll say that I don't need all that money! So, we're having a good laugh this morning!

Glad you are getting that boost of support at work!

Keep those spirits up.

PODS looking worried? Who cares? Stay focused and you and your kids.

It is going to be a great day!

Oh, how frustrating for you!
Those attorneys can really get in the way sometimes, huh?

Maybe this will give you a chance to make an offer of your own. Just to see what he'd take.

Sorry about the delay, but at least it's not months this time.

Hey, Rin asked me to.....nevermind.

She always steals my thunder.

How selfish

Well, That Sucks Rin. I can't take this much longer. Didn't you tell them I couldn't take this much longer. They postponed anyway.

How Selfish

Hi Rin:
I've been busy and have not posted, but I have been following it all and rooting for you. I'm so glad you were so calm, cool, and collected, because I was feeling anxious just reading about it all.

I don't know how you do it...stay so positive, even with another delay.

I admire you so much...I think of you often, and you are in my prayers. You are an inspriation to me; I hope I have the same strengh and gumption that you have when it's my turn.

You are awesome!

All the best, sister Bee!

Oh, I didn't mention that IL's were at the A's , THEN, HN2 showed up...also my A told me that PODS confessed to 90% of the stuff I told my A as being true!

I didn't have to stick around so I left, but all of them were still there...

Oh, BC- I'm so sorry sweetie! YES! VERY SELFISH! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

SIS, thank you for the kind words...it's been a struggle to stay in a good frame of mind...I started feeling sick a little bit ago so, I had to do some breathing... <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I appreciate you praying for me...sometimes I feel like "they" are all against me...but I have to keep in mind all the support that "I" have!

Darn! How frustrating!

I have to say though, that I am a believer in these things happen for a reason - too bad we do not always know what the reason is!

Remember this Romans 8:28
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him who have been called according to his purpose.

Know He is working this for Your good sweetie!

Bugs, I don't think that I would be as strong as I am if it were not for my faith in God...I 've got him on my side and I too believe that everything happens for a reason!

It's been really hard to leave it in God's hands!

...and another A-MEN!

I'm glad we have each other. I wish I could see God's plan for all of us, and reassure us all that there's the happy ending on the horizon.

I really, really want a happy ending for all of us here.

the PODS ( I LOVE this by-the-way) is no longer in OZ .... reality has become all too real

My experience of observing situations like this:

the W (wayward) is like a sugar addict

must have sugar
sugar is readily available
sugar gets the W "high"
sugar gives energy and the sense of power and invincibility
the sugar high fades out
must provide more sugar

no vitamins
no essential nutrients

nothing of sustinance

a diet of junk food (affair addicts)

pales the complexion
causes energy crashes
causes mood swings
causes irritability

this is how the PODS feels

drained
unhappy
fatigued
cravings
weakened

PODS is about to meet "reality bites'

withdrawl to follow

YOU are already the winner here

fear not

prayers your way

What does PODS mean?

I'm so sorry you were postponed, I've been following your thread but haven't posted up till now, also don't forget:

If God is for me who can be against me?

The battle is the Lords not yours.

For the Lord your God is the one who goes with you to fight against your enemies and give you victory.

I'll be praying for you.
