Joanne
Figured it would be easier to cover everyone in one place.
Nikki darling....how are you doing?
How is Joe doing?
What is going on with you and Joe?
How are the boys doing?

Freedom....How is lil precious doing?

How is your ol' man doing?
Please pop by the house soon...with PICTURES
Jenni....How are you doing?
I'm assuming you decided to fly out anyway.
Don't go into hiding again...keeping it all bottled up.
We can not force our desires to become His will.
Pray for the strength to accept His will,
and Thank Him for whatever purpose it served.
Lucy....seems like a silly question to ask but,
How are you doing?
How is the hubby doing?
How is Mark doing?
What is going on?
Do you see how destructive crack is?
I mean, really...have a feel for it's power!?
You are not even the one smoking it,
and it has claimed you as a victim as well.
You have gone from fighting to folding in less then a year.
In less then a year, you have gone from,
attempting to starve it to feeding it.
I Love You All!
Peace, Love, Strength & Prayers,
Lynn
_________________ If you can not stand for something, you will fall for everything
I know I haven't finished addressing your posts,
like I stated I would..what, a month ago?
Trust me, I keep up with you,
and truth be told...I don't like to.
You don't know how much I dread,
seeing you have posted on your thread.
You don't know how many times I have avoided,
reading your posts...for a day or two.
You don't know that, more times then not,
every time your posts are loading in my browser,
I cringe for what I may read.
Once again, I remain an unheard voice,
regarding the latest BS with your ex.
I wouldn't be surprised to learn...that yes,
you have contemplated on why, as vocal as I am,
I am not rarely but, barely ever heard from,
where stressful situations regarding your ex are concerned.
I'm sorry that I haven't made myself,
available to lean on or find support in JoAnne.
It's not because I don't want to, it's because I am unable to.
You really have no idea nor, haven't a clue,
how heavy, the situation with your ex, weighs on my heart.
I know what your going through, I would never wish it on anyone!
You and the boys are, have been and will remain, a priority in my prayers
Peace, Love & Strength
Lynn

Hello my dear, i am doing okay. The boys are doing great. I am so proud of them, i must share why. Well my boys play soccer and this year they were approached to try out to play competitive soccer instead of recreational. They select 13 players out of 132 players. Well try outs were last week-end and guess what......my boys both made it. I am so proud of them and they are very proud of themselves and happy. They are doing great in school, lots of homework, but they seem to be understanding everything very well.
Me and joe are doing okay. He is still smoking weed, and respecting the fact that i don't want it around me or my kids our my home. He says that he is not doing the hard stuff anymore, but sometimes i still wonder if thats the truth. I won't waste my energy on whether or not he is or not doing it. This is what a life with an addict is all about, either i take it or leave it. I can't change him i can only change my path in life and decide whats best for me and the kids.
As for me, i am doing not bad, physically tired and not feeling to well, but i am sure that its all the *censored sh_t that i have had to deal with in the last 3 yrs, from the divorce to joe. Its okay i am climbing the hill back up. Apart from that things are okay. I have missed you lynn, and everyone here. I am still keeping up with everyone here, and i hope you and jacob are doing well.
i really was just teasing when i posted "what about me?"
i agree with you; issues regarding breakups where children are involved; custody and access issues that result therein, are just stressful; painful; and damaging to all involved; especially when those involved can't step up to the plate and behave like rational, responsible adults.
i'm sorry for anyone who has, is, or ever will be in such a position.
i'm not perfect; but i don't take being a Mom lightly; and i am trying my best to do right by my kids.
for the record; i love reading your posts; especially the ones that light a fire under me; or give me a much needed kick in the butt -- you are a source of inspiration and support whether you realize it or not. thanks, friend,
take care of yourself and Jacob. love and hugs,
Joanne

JoAnne, why do I get this feeling there's a possibility,
that you may have misunderstood what I posted to you?
_________________ If you can not stand for something, you will fall for everything
yeah; but you know; i tend not to be too clear in how i express things; seem to give off the wrong impression; sooooooo just to be clear.....
but; i really do love your posts where you give me a kick in the butt!!! to at least make me think about things from all points of view. no misunderstandings about that, "k"??????
just popped in for a second to let you know i'm doing fine. same old, same old. work, home, work, home. i am so bored, bored, bored. life was way more exciting when i drank. i bet i couldn't even begin to remember half of all the things i did when i was drunk.
anyhow, been reading a book lately on how to construct your own personal atom bomb. biggest problem of course is finding a place to hide it when your finished. you know how d*mned nosey people can be. also the plutonium dust can be hazardous. not to worry though, i always make a point of washing my hands verrry carefully with warm soapy water.
have a bit of free time on my hands next week so will be attending a seminar on how to clone your next door neighbours wife in six easy steps. i'd signed up more on a whim than anything as I highly doubt that i'd ever seriously find the time to pursue such a project anyway. besides, while the intial layout expense for the course was minimal, the cost of the materials needed for such a project would really put a dent in my wallet.
it's true, i could concievably use the same measuring cup, spoons, mixing bowls and spatula that i'm building the bomb with, however, the slightest cross contamination between projects could lend to a state of instability, thereby making the bomb highly unpredictable, while in the same manner the clone would too closely resemble the real thing, so what would be the point anyway.
i've seriously been thinking of discontinuing my councilling sessions as my councillor has repeatedly refused to make an appearance. she keeps on citing the Work Hazardous Materials Information Sheet, claiming that my presence in her office violates her right to enjoy a 'work safe environment'.well, who needs her opinion anyway. i'm probably more normal than most people would care to admit anyway.
well lynn, i must run, there's something tugging at my brain handles making me feel i should leave the area emmediately. we should get together sometime, just you and i, especially if you're feeling bored. mabey we could analyze the results of my recently failed attempts to implant backbones into different species of invertabrae.
hoping you and jacob are doing well,
lovingly yours, bill

~~...I'm so afraid of waking, please don't shake me,
afraid of waking, please don't shake me....
Now that we're here...it's so far away,
all the struggles we thought was in vain...
all the mistakes one life contained,
they all finally start to go away...
Now that we're here...it's so far away,
and I feel like I can face the day...
I can forgive and I'm not ashamed...
to be the person that I am today~~
