Thanks
Glad that I could give you a smile...
Gold Star
Here's a gold star for the teacher. Yep - things right now as always at the beginning of a school year are crazy busy but it's such a hopeful, wonderful and productive crazy busy I secretly love it. Kids are ready now too and I love seeing their (even though they pretend not) excitement. Hope you get some time for R & R over the weekend.

Hug
I know we are gearing up for the school year here. Hoping yours gets off to a good start. As a former classroom teacher for years- I know for me it was always a sense of new beginnings at this time of the year.

Hug
The weekend weather great. I am off to take the kids to the airport to fly out for 10 days to see their dad. Nervous b/c he threatened last week to bring the kids in the middle RE exposing court documents and finances b/c I asked for child support. Oh well, the kids are wonderful, bright. Take care and hope you get to do something enjoyable today.

Close Breakups & Divorce
Now divorced after 22 years. Now I'm looking at recreating life for myself and my kids. Some days are sad but most are fine. Life is good.
Treatments
- Couples Counseling Working / Worked
- We had a wonderful counselor and used the Imago relationship therapy. It did miraculous work in opening our eyes to each other and allowing our communication to be open and honest.
- Forgiveness Working / Worked
- I do this for me. If I can forgive him, I can move on. I have no desire to hold a grudge.
- Pets Working / Worked
- My furry family helps a lot. We just got two new kittens (he took our cat) and their antics always make me laugh. My 11 year old Lab/Rotweiler mix is a solid, loyal friend and even our guinea pig and rats give me smiles.
- Psychotherapy Working / Worked
- My counselor was great for helping me be strong, find my own limits and stand up for myself. I credit her with a lot.
- Reading Working / Worked
- Boy I have read everything I can get my hands on and still have more to go. Yes, a lot helped, some didn't. I have recommendations for anyone who is interested.
- Support from Friends & Family Working / Worked
- My family has been a terrific support. I have five brothers and sisters in the same state and they have all been at my side. My kids are also wonderful. Even my 15 year old has been helpful and loving.
- Talking Working / Worked
- Reaching a state of truly honest and open communication was crucial for us. Maybe it isn't always what each other wants to hear, but it's honest finally. This has allowed us to develop a friendship which never would have happened otherwise.
- Time Working / Worked
- Yes, Yes, Yes, and I suspect it will continue to work as more time passes.
- Yoga Working / Worked
- This really struck a chord in me. I love the meditative side of it and the exercise has made me feel strong and good about myself.
