Oh heck, I didn't know that was D! Hey D... long time no see!


New computer that would not get the groups, new woman friend, new salsa
classes as well as the ballroom, work on the house, busy with the day job
and Freddie as demanding as ever.
I take time out to try and give Kristi a few pointers and look at the

thanks
I get!

I have been reading the group though, sorry to hear of you personal
tragedies, my thoughts were with you both.

Oops... congrads on the new women friend and all the other fun stuff.

I am unsubscribing from this newsgroup because it's not given me the support
I was seeking or hoping to find. I'm sorry if it appears that I've been
whining or wallowing in my own pain, sorrow, grief, and anger. Guess what?
Just because some of you have been single parents longer than me... it
doesn't mean you're an expert. It doesn't mean you know everything and it
certainly doesn't give you license to judge me. How can you call this a
support group when someone is reaching out and telling you their story and
you beat them over the head with it? I'd rather be supported by wolves than
by people who talk to me the way I've been talked to on this board. I'm
sorry I even subscribed in the first place.



Well thank you for your honesty. Good luck. One thing to life is sometimes
listening to voices of reason when it does not agree with your own voice. Part
of being an adult is making decisions based on the one voice that has more
experience.

She was probably offended by your top posting.

The closest thing was Dennis cutting to the chase.........which she

seemed
to take offense with. Another classic example o someone who thinks
'support' is being enabled ......"it's okay......you good, him bad'

Maybe
if what's his name from England (not you Paul G) was still posting, he
could play the enabler and make her feel better


Oddly enough I've forgotten his name too. I wonder what that means. Hey
ho. ;-)

Honesty sure does bite some in the ass doesn't it. I know I wish all my
problems could be taken care of with a kiss and a hug but that just isn't
the case.


A kiss and a hug don't usually hurt though and they just might help a
little. Worth a try anyway, that's my motto.

Dammit! I was relying on you to be cheeky and ask him more about her. Now
I'll have to wait until someone else does.

Hmm the kisses and hugs from my kidlets keep me going, shouldn't that be
enough? Dammit, what am I going to do when they're 12 and that's gross
though?
