Catnip....I have been thinking about you for so long. It is so hard to understand why H has changed so much. My heart goes out to you..your posts just don't sound like you. I would like to talk to you...please give me a call. I am laid off..home most of the time

Vincent:<p>You'll be hearing from me next week...I am just settling into my new Rhoda apartment. But, I've thought of you several times over the past few weeks and planned to call you (I've got your number) next week. Talk to you then...we can meet up at Starbuck's again.<p>Love<p>Catnip =^^=<p>
Carriemom!!! You renewed your vows just this last Friday? This is wonderful news...I am so pleased for you and your husband.<p>As far as still not knowing anything, we did talk about you hiring an investigator...I'll be in touch.<p>Love <p>Catnip =^^=<p>
Dear Twiisty<p>I hate to say 'welcome' to our sad little group. but, welcome anyway. You are in the right place. And it is a pleasure to meet you.<p>So you have had experience with the bipolar insanity, huh? I am so deeply sorry your child is bipolar, too. The good news though, Twiisty, is that she has been diagnosed so early that proper medication and counselling can control much of it...and you will know the behavior is something she can't help and it is not intended to be something deliberate.
I'll keep you and your daughter in my prayers.<p>Catnip =^^=

I read your breakdown regarding CS and yes! That is exactly what I was thinking?!<p>I have a friend who was recently divorced (as in married to the guy), and she doesn't even get THAT much for her 2 kids! <p>THAT'S EXCESSIVE... Well, keep the faith. Something could happen in the future that will reduce it to a more fair amount. That is ridiculous. I believe God will fix that, just give Him some time...

Catnip,<p>Thanks for the advice. I'm going to do a lot of thinking this next week and decide how to go about putting my all into my marriage. I'm going away without my H or kids for 6 days, I'm leaving tomorrow morning. I was nervous when I made the plans for this trip 6 months ago now I'm not. I plan on enjoying myself and not worrying about anything. I'm leaving this exOW/OC crap here at home. I'm going to have fun and enjoy myself. I'm going away with 3 other married women who all need a break from reality. [img]images/icons/smile.gif" border="0[/img] I hope everythig works out for you. I think you should go to school to be a Therapist or a Social worker. You have great listening skills. Good luck again.<p>
