I tend to let the stress that I'm under influence some of the things I say, and that's wrong. It's only happened a couple of times, but that's two times too many. And, no, last night wasn't one of them and the night before wasn't one of those times either. I meant everything I said to sadsam.

I love how MB and Dr. Harley have evolved and learned from past mistakes to make this such a wonderful place for personal and marital growth

Like you, having read some posts from way back, it is refreshing to see what this place truly has become. It's quite a blessing to so many out there that are in so much pain. We all know that pain.

So sorry about your mom TW. That is such a tough disease. You can tell you've been through a lot.

Thank you, BH. Been through a lot, and it's only going to get worse. I was thinking this afternoon about the irony between Alzheimer's and adultery, or any other crisis for that matter. It really doesn't matter what the crisis is, but it really does ferret out who your true friends and family are and what they are made of.

I'm not liking what I'm seeing (and it's really not pretty) but that's okay. I can't waste time worrying about what everyone else does or doesn't do. Of course, the fight that may ensue when it's time to divvy up the financial spoils will certainly garner a helluva lot more attention from whomever than whomever trying to help the one person that provided those spoils.

You know what? I don't give a damn. They can have it all. I really don't give a [censored]. I know I can look in the mirror and know I did the best I could.

I can live with that.

LOL, can you tell I'm a little pissed tonight??



finah, sorry for the t/j

Let's get back to MB. I'm sorry, I just needed to vent SOMEWHERE for a second and I don't have a lot of avenues to do that venting. Sorry for the disruption. Having a tough night. My apologies.

You've helped so many I think you should have your own place to land.

I'm sorry you're having a tough night and this is a safe place to vent. I just think you deserve your own, friend.

BH,and maritalbliss, thank you so much. As much as I appreciate the gesture, I don't think this forum is the appropriate place for this thread. I got my vent out, LOL, so I'm fine. Thanks for hearing me out. I feel awful that I t/j'ed finah's thread, but thanks finah for allowing me to do so. I sincerely apologize for the disruption.

My problems are mine.

Let's get back to MB.

Mods, do your thing.

That's fine. I never go there, but hey, maybe I just might now.

BH, it means a lot that you did this on my behalf. I won't forget it. Thank you. It was a very nice gesture on your part.

You're in my prayers.

You should visit. Some funny topics there.
You're welcome, friend.

It was a very meaningful gesture. Thank you for the prayers I can always use them.

As well you're in my prayers.

Oh also on why I thought you were in your 30s, wasn't because of your posting, it was the play on your handler name.

When you first got here I kept glancing TigerWes and seeing TigerWoods. Please don't take that as a bad example of him. Just my eyes doing funny tricks! laugh

Then the age stuck. Now I think you love golf. grin

LOL...Ironically enough I've been an avid golfer since I was 14. I never really thought about the Tiger Woods connection as my reference to tiger has more to do with a college mascot and a lifelong nickname. As far as Tiger Woods is concerned, I hope he 3 putts the rest of his career.
