Altho I never wanted or saw myself as being divorced, or not married to my H any longer, there are up-sides to it ...<p> - I can eat onions any time I want
- My house stays clean
- Less toilet paper to buy
- No more blame
- I can get a dog
- I know who to depend on, me
- I don't have to worry if I'm being lied to
- I don't have to feel guilty when I work too late
- On week-ends I can get up early and go places (H use to sleep till noon)
- I can buy a horse without justfying the purchase
<p>I'm sure there are more, but this is a good start. <p>Thanks for listening. [img]images/icons/smile.gif" border="0[/img] <p>Jo<p>[ December 16, 2001: Message edited by: Resilient ]</p>

That's great Jo! it's good to hear this from you! You have evolved into a great success. Success is about you and only you, it's not attatched to another! The glass half full....... a very good thing! God bless you Jo!

Jo,<p>I am so glad to see you that your glass is over half full, I like some of the things that you can now do but I am like your X, I like to stay in bed, now I can do it & not feel guilty, well when the sons don't have somewhere to go.<p>Now as to the dog, I just don't understand why you wouldn't want Dave's 2 wonderful dogs, we have heard so many nice stories about them.

Just remember Jo, it is YOUR glass!! YOUR glass is always as half full or empty as YOU choose it to be. I think we get in trouble when we become responsible FOR filling someone elses glass. It is okay to be responsible "to" someone, but not "for" them, unless its our children as infants!! It is not your responsibility to fill someone elses glass and be held accountable for constantly filling it in order to "make" them happy! So, what kinda horse ya buying??? Happy Holidays!!
