Calaway Gardens near Warm Springs, GA for this weekend.
I have a full package booked at the lodge there.
They are having the Festival of Lights there and it's mine and my GF's birthday. (yes we have the same birthday)
The gardens are huge. There's a butterfly house (more like gymnasium) filled with butterflies, humming birds, quail and ducks.
There's a raptor show there and I love owls and hawks.
After the tour of the gardens, we have dinner planned then go see the Christmas lights throught the park.
On Saturday, we will head into Warm Springs to see FDR's Little White House from when he was president.
I watch, and am as a sparrow alone upon the house top.

sounds nice... wish gekko and i had done stuff like that when i would be down there.
i do have to ask you though.. you said in another post that you always make sure your ex gets wind of what you are doing with your gf and what you buy her etc... to rub her face in it i am sure. does you gf realize you do this? because that would piss me off if i knew you were MAKING SURE your ex got wind of what you did with and for your new gf. i would start to feel kind of used, like you were just with me to rub your exes face in it.
isn't it time to get over the ex and your hostile feelings and move on and enjoy your new gf without all the other games?

She's not my ex yet. She is now dragging her feet for finalization because the judge ordered her to give me my money back from the house she stole and pay my attorney's fees for being in contempt of court.
My GF doesn't care if I rub it in her face, in fact she is actually encouraging me to because she was so cruel to me for so long.
Tabs HATES my wife for making me so miserable for so long. She and I were a couple abck 17 years ago and it didn't work out. She wanted to party and I wanted to settle down. She left me and went on to get immediately married to an abusive drug abuser. (but hey he liked to party!) She had a stroke at 25 and during her long and arduous recovery he abused her extensively. She was too ashamed to call me, but I had moved on.
When I got married she was happy for me as she knew I would take care of my family and defend them with my life.
Anyways, she found out that my wife and I were having problems (a few days before I got shot) and she was divorced. She was visiting my brother's wife and I got shot that weekend. My twin brother flew down immediately to see me and found out just how bad things were and how much danger I was in with my wife scrambling with damage control over the looming exposure to her affair.
Anyways Tabitha called me on my brother's cell and told me that if I left that abusive wh0r3, to give her another chance as she knew a little something about abusers.
Anyways that was a year ago this week, and my wife threw me out upon exposure in January. I waited few months to call Tabitha and saw her on the weekends here and there.
I moved up here to Atlanta back in July and we got a place to gether and things are fine. I communicate with her fully and try to meet her needs. She is learning to communicate, but I'm patient and am willing to work with her as when she tried before, all it got her was broken teeth.
My brush with death taught me that life is too short to be miserable with a self centered abuser. Yes, I still have a few issues with vindication on my part, but it is subsiding as I watch her circle the commode and it is fading to pity.
Once she hits absolute rock bottom, then and only then can I work on forgivness.

i did not realize it has only been a year that you and your ex have been apart.. at the one year mark i'd say i was still feeling pretty vindictive myself. but i guess i'm not cut from the cloth of "rubbing ones face in it" nor would i encourage someone else to do so either. that is just me.
i loved the atlanta area. if i didn't have kids i'd still move down there even though gekko and i are no longer together. i just LOVED it down there. my friend christy and her husband live down there and she told me the other day "just move here! there are many opportunities and you don't need a man to be a reason you move" (gekko and i had planned me and my kids move down there next year when we were together). but, with kids i told her i can't just move. i have to have a reason such as remarriage to do so. i never would have thought of such a move if not for gekko. i had never been to georgia before and just fell in love with it the first time my plane landed there.

There are some places in Georgia I want to never return to.
Let's see.... Albany, Camilla, Bainbridge just to name a few.
However I am going to miss our place we had down in Mexico Beach, Florida.

Happy Birthday -
You got shot???? How did that happen???
WH and I still reside in the same home and IMO he gets alot of pleasure from "rubbing my nose" in his affairs or what he does for other people rather than me.
I don't know why he does it, I think he has hurt me and my family enough, why keep doing it??? Because I've moved on? Because I don't care about his A's anymore?
Healing Vibes to you and yours.

Healing Vibes to you and yours. Your husband's behavior is deplorable. I feel for you as my wifey did the simular things just before exposure was a reality. Once she was out from my financial umbrella and OM dumped her for his wifey, she started circling the commode quickly.

That's Wild Adventures, used to go there with the wife and kids during the summer all the time.
Calaway Gardens is up by Colombus.
Or down by Colombus since I moved up to Atlanta from Albany. (All-benny)
