Maybe I should post on the other boards as well. When I was a newbie I "hung out" in the recovery section so I could get the guidance from the old farts. I didn't stay on the other boards very long - I knew where the wisdom was to be found.<P>I agree your Plan A is very similar to mine.

NB,<P>Couldn’t leave the weather remark alone 42 degrees, ENJOY! <P>I'm now on my 300 day of the same weather every day, HOT, HUMID & it will rain sometime somewhere on the island. It is always 85 to 92 & never cooler than 75, I think it is a major cold front if it got down to 70.

Can't we all just get along? Is there some reason for all of this hypersensitivity?

Hi Free,<P>The "MEGA THREAD" is over on the divorce board... and you will have NO TROUBLE finding it once you look... trust me! <P>It bagan months and months ago... and it's where the Corona started flowing~~~~ you'll see. It was something that was meant to give us all (who were going through divorces) a fun diversion... it just kept going and going... and is STILL going.<P>I'm glad I made you smile! <P>

NB, you like Carolina Belle always make me smile, just seeing ya'lls names brings a little smile. <P>sing going out to sweat in the hot tropical humid day this one is for you NB. no I take that back Sat at the mid afternoon baseball game or sun when we are in a strip of a rainforrest with cub scouts planting trees I will think about you :

Ah <B>sing</B>,<P>What a sweetie you are! <P>Do me a favor, will ya?<P>Send me some sunshine on Saturday. I sure could use it!! <P>Hugs, <P>------------------<BR>~Sheryl<BR>(a bit worse for the wear, but hanging in there)<P><B>Life <I>is</I> difficult</B>.<BR><I>The Road Less Traveled</I><BR>~M.

New beginnings...my old friend DO you know that I named my web page new beginings? <BR>I am one of the people that have hardly been here lately. As you say, I felt I needed to move on, focus on our future as a couple instead of past mistakes.<BR>THere were also times where I would come here and feel that reading the painful stories was making me revive my own problems over and over again.<BR>But Every once in a while I still come here. And today I found this message.<BR>Not being here regularly I haven't notice this trend, but all I can say - as many other did in response to your post - is that when I first came here I was always encourage to first decide what I felt I need to do, and then try to follow trough with it.<BR>Plan A worked for me. I used it and recoment it- - doesn't mean that it will work for everybody, but Isuppose we have to start somewhere.<BR>What I was never encouraged to do, was to just quit. This is -was - a board for solutions. Sharing experiences and learn from them. I found here a wonderful second family, that helped me to keep my perspective when I was down, told me to hang in there when It seemed there was no hope and cheered with me when the first positive signs appeared.<BR>Solutioons like "quit" and "dump" did certainly appear here and there, but were counteracted by responses from people tha had been trough the same we were and had advanced to another stage - no matter which - and that could enrich us with those experiences.<BR>I'm probably going off topic here, but I want to say just one more thing. <BR>To support others there is no need for knwoledge. Everyone can do that, you have to have some empathy I guess, and a desire to diminish pain .<BR>But to give suggestions one should follow the saying" a little knowledge is a dangerous thing" Because you enough to have an idea of what you're talking about, but not enough to understand the whole process, and your suggestion might harm more than help.<BR>And I better stay here before some of the old friends remember how long my posts usually are LOL<BR>Manyhugs to all<BR>I mightnot be here that often but you are still in my heart<BR>Kat

<B>KAT</B>!!!!!!<P>HI <P>Oh, I miss having you around...<P>Please drop by whenever you can... you have been missed.<P>------------------<BR>~Sheryl<BR>(a bit worse for the wear, but hanging in there)<P><B>Life <I>is</I> difficult</B>.<BR><I>The Road Less Traveled</I><BR>~M. Scott Peck

It took me about a good year to figure out who the card fairy <I>really</I>was! SHHHHH..... I'm not telling! <P>Yes Samantha... I DO think YOU were the one to start the burning the candle tradition, when you prayed for all of us. And I think you started it with one of my frantic days! Thank you so much, I am forever grateful.<P>Sheba, it has been too long! I lost track of what was happening in your life since the D and the camping trip! I could reply to all of you. So many questions!<P>Last August, I signed up as a VISTA volunteer. It is like a domestic peace corps - you raise your right hand and promise to be available 24/7. And it has kept me extremely busy. Made a fantastic powerpoint presentation - writing grants and reports - designed a web-site, and lots and lots of traveling. I have a very interesting job. <P>We still haven't moved over to the lake house, and X still lives 4 doors down, and OW lives behind the X. Some things never change? But - now that the weather is finally starting to unthaw, (and flood - recruiting sandbaggers out there....) - I suppose we will get more done and closer to the goal of getting moved out of this crummy little town!<P>We are doing fabulous! I am sooooo glad that I found MB, and that you all were here with prayers and support. I know many times I was told by the best MB'ers to get out. But there was a little voice inside of me (God?) telling me that HE HATES DIVORCE, and that All things work together for good. IT IS SO TRUE!<P>It is so nice to see all of us here in one spot once again. I miss our old forum, and feel overwhelmed by the new people desperate for understanding and insight. <P>I have prayed so often for many of you. <P>God Bless you all.<P>TNT<BR>PS.... julie - I have special prayers for you, my friend. God loves you so very much, and he wants you to trust Him. The Lord says - that the only thing that we humans can do to please him, is to trust him. Do that, and you will be okay. I promise. {hugs to Love was Blind}<BR>

OH <B>TNT</B>,<P><stomping foot> You BRAT!! Who, who, who is the card fairy??? How can you come here and bait us like that? <P>It's <B>SOOO</B> good to see ya!!<P>
