      Hey there! Its good to hear from you! How are you?? So how did your last surgery go, with the gall bladder? did you recover okay? Im glad to see your back :) so why did you decide to go off all your meds for the endo? they can get pretty overwhelming.. sometimes i feel like im just floating through life, just trying to get through each day. my endo pain has been pretty bad lately, im thinking that i might end up going to see a specialist. its just been so hard, its such a struggle everyday just to get out of bed and make it to work. my nausea has been pretty bad lately too, so thats just doubling the effort i have to make to not call in sick at work everyday. i feel like i just need a break, but i know that it probably wouldnt help much anyways. ugh, its so frustrating.
      But besides that... :P how are you doing with the divorce? im always here if you need to talk! it must be so hard, i mean, my breakup was bad and im still having a really hard time with it, im lucky that i wasnt married to him for a long time. i dont know if id be able to get through it. breakups suck :( im so afraid of getting involved with anyone because i dont think i can handle anymore heartbreak :(
      Well, i hope your doing good, i hope this message wasnt too depressing! :P Talk to you later,
      *Hugs*

      Hey there, how are you holding up? i hope all is well and that your recovery from surgery (and your divorce) goes quickly :) im always here if you need someone to talk to.. i know its not the same because i wasnt married, but my relationship just ended too and i am no longer 'stepmom'. its nowhere near easy and its just plain painful. anyways, i hope your week is going good. take care of yourself. *Hugs*
