I got my court date mixed up - I go tomorrow. I figured this out late Friday. I'm surprised these days that I even know my name . . .

I'm doing much better than I thought I would, but I still am depressed and walking around in limbo - don't know what to do with myself, but I am keeping myself busy with my daughter. I've been 'programmed' for 27 years +, so I know it's going to take longer than a couple of weeks to get myself straightened out. I really hate things had to be this way, but this is something that should've been done years ago. There's so much damage that has been done, and I'm so resentful.

I know I'll get there. There's just gonna be a lot of ups and downs.

Hugs,

Jackie

Hey Jackie, here's something for you to mull tomorrow in court:


Nerfy's managing a Hooters. (I found out yesterday, there's more to it, but that's the funny part.)

Jackie,

I just wanted to say that step by step, day by day is the only way to go. It is the way we need to heal and every step forward, however tiny, is still a step. You are doing just fine and as for your memory I just make sure wherever I go I still count two kids, me and a car, other than that I figure I can dreal with it later! My prayers are with you and just remeber you already took the biggest step and you need to congratulate yourself on doing everything you are doing.

Jackie--you should feel so proud you are actually doing something to help you and your family. I remember reading how you felt like you couldn't do anything, so for me reading that you have a court date, etc.....it gives me hope. Hugs!
