Mimi,

It actually is possible for me to become a rabbi. My wise rabbi says that amount of work it would take isn't worth it because of my age and how hard to eventually get a congregation would be. But, there are more and more woman rabbi's coming out of rabbinic school.

I would need to start learning Hebrew fluently, which would take me a few years and then I would apply to rabbinic school in either LA, Cincinnati or NY. I would go for New York. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Closer to my Redskins! The timing is interesting because it takes about 3 or 4 years to learn hebrew from an online class which would be when my youngest son graduates high school. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Another one of my dreams is to visit or live in Israel. By becoming a rabbi, I would accomplish two life long dreams.

We are certainly GATHERING MORE KINDRED SPIRITS, I wonder if our SHEPHERD is telling us something. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

TNT - Thank you for what you said and Mark too, but please it hasn't been me. It's been G-d who has given me the FAITH to move forward. And THOSE ON HERE. The support I have gotten on here and G-ds grace working in my life sustains me for Plan A. That and the fact that I LOVE MY HUSBAND. TRUST those who respond to you on here and know that they have walked before us and carry the message of G-d in their hearts like I am learning to do daily.

What I have today more than anything is the desire to BE EXACTLY WHAT AND WHO G-D NEEDS ME TO BE. And to understand that my life and his need for me is bigger than I can imagine and so I need to just TRUST what he is doing and wait on him to show me his NEED OF ME.

I REFUSE to wear those colors! LOL

Well, okay, I guess I will since it's you. But inside I'll be yelling "Blue and Silver! Blue and Silver!"

Naw, I could NEVER ask someone to betray their colors. I WOULDN'T. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I have to laugh, our school colors are blue and silver and I love the shirts we get. There is NO WAY that is touching my body.

We can personalize and be strong in hearts as one for G-d. And cheerlead our uniqueness as G-d loves us for who we ARE.

Now, we could go for a group set of SUNGLASSES WITH LOTSA RHINESTONES. Who's up for that?

Speed Blue and White!!!

With a big horseshoe onna side!

Now.. do I have to wear the pleated skirt to be a cheerleader? Or can I be one of those hunks with the sweater and slacks carrying all the hawt GODDESSES on his shoulders?

James:

You ride through on a WHITE HORSE. Or should it be a stallion?

I'm in with the SHADES..PINK ONES of course...but we need to rethink the pleated skirts...YUCK...

LOL,

Out of the mouth of another football WARRIOR. We might not get a discount price on the uniforms however. Ah such as life.

Do you have any Scottish in you?

PINK SHADES of COURSE.... Are there any others?

Ahhh.. a white horse.. I dig that.

As for the Scottish question.. I'm actually 1/2 Scottish on my mom's side.. the Robertsons.. only non-noble Highland clan permitted to wear a crown on their crest..

Most notable family son? Rob Roy

And yes.. I own a Great Kilt.. and know how to fold and wear it.

LOL..if I do, it's only just a DROP....

Go for the colored Polyester then. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

LOL, how hard are they to fold?

Hey Miss Mimi,

What are you doing this weekend?

JT,

How did the shopping at Bellevue Square go tonight?

I had a nice time going to Alanon and then AA. It was a night from G-d.

Talk to you over the weekend and sleep well,

SG

Haven't you noticed?

Baking a cake tomorrow...for one thing...

LOL,

I did get that. MMM I can smell it already.

I would love to find a pound cake recipe that doesn't call for sugar. Or maybe I could just use Splenda instead.

Are you diabetic or do you just watch your weight?

I'm not planning on eating it. I'm baking it for my H and sons.

Since D-Day, 7 months tonight I chose to give up sugar. It's one of the most addictive drugs there is that's legal and deadly to me.

I could have been diabetic but almost 78 lbs later I think that is farther off now.

I want you to know that this has been the deepest PERSONAL GROWTH day I have experienced.

I feel deep inside that I have finally come to TERMS and ACCEPTED this situation as completely G-d orchestrated and that through this I am truly on the road to recovery and being a woman of Proverbs 31 and G-d.

I felt such overwhelming emotions for my gratefulness to G-d I didn't know what to do. I just kept crying joys of happiness.

YOU'VE FOUND YOUR POWER!!

There's no turning back NOW!!

You'll be changed FOREVER!!

And not coincidentally I think, have I really thought about WH. Something has shifted and changed. I'm more at peace with life because G-d is so good to me because of you, and so many others.

I don't want around ashamed for my mistakes anymore. I walk around KNOWING, TRULY KNOWING, that it's ok and one way or another, G-d will turn this into something good, actually in SO MANY ways, he already has.

On the one hand I am almost ready to go into Plan B and leave WH left to his own devices and more forward building more of my life. And yet, I KNOW that G-d wants my M and has enough FAITH in me to stand for my M no matter what.
