How was your weekend. <P>Just checking to see if you let him come over? Or did you send the email?<P>Which state are you in? I don't like to ask too many personal questions over the 'net, I know how I am about my privacy. I'm in Brisbane - commonly referred to by me as Bris-vegas.....<BR>I lived in Melbourne for 11 years and loved it. Then Sydney for 2 years. Now I'm back home with my family, and where I basically grew up.<P>I often wonder what these ws's think the heck they are doing? Where are their heads. Oh yes, as someone once so eloquently said "up their butts..."<P>Anyway, this is just a general post to say hi. It's so nice to see someone who is in the same time zone as me. Usually when I post, I have to wait ages for a response. I used to feel very unloved in the early days, now I just go to bed and check first thing in the morning.<P>have a great week<P>hugs<P>Jo

bonnet,<P>i am not Rose but I am only about 4 hrs behind you in time. I know what you mean about delays in post being answered. Have a good day on Mon.

Hullo bonnet and hullo dear friend sing.<P>It sure is nice to be in the same part of the world !<P>I live in NSW bonnet - and feel a bit the same as you re privacy - but, I used to live in Brisbane once, and in Melbourne for a time. <P>I am doing OK in Plan B - biggest difficulty is that H simply does not understand the meaning of no contact - either with me or OW. Right now, I just want to not ever hear from him again - but he keeps up the contact; a fax and a telephone call yeasterday re some business matters; and a telephone call today at work re some tax matters. But I am getting stronger and more focussed. Once upon a time I used to come home and hope for a message or an e-mail; I used to think that that if we could stay in contact and I could successfully Plan A he would eventually come out of the fog. Now - I just dread some further contact from him because it ignites the pain all over again - but not so badly.<P>Had an interesting chat with a friend tonight - mentioned to her that H is being tested for diabetes; she just was amazed- and then went on to explain how diabetes and mood swing are related. Might explain just a little bit of the madness of the past two and a half years - but I am well beyond looking for "excuses"; fact is he has chosen to contiue a r/ship with Ow and I have chosen to opt out.<P>It really is nice of you to contact me - this sure is one tough and lonely road and it is nice to meet some friends along the way.<P>Hugs <BR>R
