sorry haven't been on as much Mood
Wednesday, October 15, 2008 | A Positive story

Just thought I'd stop in for a quick few words to let everyone know my life is so much better now that I've gotten out of the abusive relationship. It's so freeing. I never realized how bad it was 'til I got out of it. It was horrible and I was in such a depressive rut--AWFUL. Thanks so much to all of you for your continued support and encouragement and for not giving up on me.

 

I've been staying fairly busy, the weather has been very abnormally warm and sunny. I've been trying to enjoy the last bit of good weather, before rain and cold sets in. That's why I haven't been on very much. Then when Tiffany gets home from school, unless she has something to do, we generally hang out.

 

Rain and cold are due in this weekend and I will get my journals and hugs caught up. For now, know that I love and miss you all and thank you for your patience and being there for me and with me through this.

 

Caring thoughts and prayers to you all. Helen

    That's great! Sometimes you just don't see the forest for the tress until you're out of the woods. So nice Tiffany still likes to hang out with you. I hope those days last a long time. xoxo
