Uh, no, SC. Not that.

Thanks for your upbeat and warm congratulations, but on this last note I have to defer.

I've been reading the biography of Steve Jobs (it was the least I could do on my new iPad) and something folk singer Joan Baez said resonated with me (Jobs dated Baez for a short while):

I kind of feel like that. I am now too busy to think about dating or entering yet another relationship. I'm not saying it couldn't happen, but at this juncture, I'm not going to do anything to try to make it happen.

Preach the Gospel every day. When necessary, use words.

Hey brother, after two failed marriages, the first one cuz I was to young and did not know what it would take, and the second one....well still figuring that out really, I am of the same mindset.

But we have children,(You have a DD right?), and we have God also, and our commitment to our children, to keep us busy loving them and giving them all we can, while we can.


Yes, we might, at least I might, get to a place where all those details are worked out, and I find someone to be a partner again in lifes challanges that I will need as a helpmeet, but at this time, God has given me enough to supply what I need to do.

Keep fighting the good fight Fred, and remain open to possibities, but by all means, don't let anyone pressure you. Lol, I swear that is how I got in trouble in the first place.. dontknow
