Hello All,<P>It's been awhile since I last started something here. Much is happening and not much of it is good. The finances are strained to the limit. My wife is making payments to the attorney, but I still have not received any papers. Her habits are the same, going on fishing trips now with others and staying away a couple of days at a time. I think she is in a relationship with a co-worker. <P>I have done some painting over at the house in preparation to sell. She is talking with a realtor tonight to get it listed. I'm hoping and praying that we will be able to sell it quickly and make something on the equity.<P>She and my son have had a blowout. They are not speaking. Mike packed and moved out and is now going through many of the emotions that we have experienced here. He is staying with a friend's family. I will be talking with my complex about getting a 2-bedroom so that he can move in with me (his request). His car is in the shop 1 week after moving out. They are telling him about 1500 to repair/replace the transmission. He is looking at trading it in. I really feel for him. He's had to grow up so fast all of a sudden. He was not ready to move out or be on his own. <P>I am finding new support with my co-workers. It has been more than I asked for, but what I needed. I have a line on a divorce support group and hoping to gain more information about it this week. <P>We have the house up for sale and that is real depressing. So much lost, and so unnecessary.<P>That's the update. Sorry it took so long to get back here. I'm finding the holidays are difficult to look forward to. You have all been such a great encouragement to me. Any comments would be appreciated. Sometimes y'all see things in what I say that I don't even notice.<P>Dane<BR> <BR> <BR> <BR><P>------------------<BR>7Habits (Dane)<BR>"The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them."
