To Everyone That Helped Me Before!!!

This message is for everyone that had the care to help me out through my problems before!!

I did move back to my hometown of Stettler to work in my mother's restaurant as I had said before. Well here's exactly how the last months have panned out for me:

I began working in the restaurant when I moved back, got my house with the backyard and finally got my daughter back in my life 24/7.... :) I was working there everyday, the customers there were fantastic to work with and I made alot more new friends. Well there was one family (a woman, husband, her bro, and her four kids) that came in on a daily basis. I grew to become very good friends with them and their children called me Aunty Randi. Well after a couple months, her husband told me that they're bro had a crush on me, and after getting to know him in the store I thought he was a decent enough guy so I gave him my number. Well it took a couple weeks for him to get up the nerve but he finally did ask me out. Went on quite a few dates and things went extremely well, after a couple more months he asked me to move in with him. Kaycee took to him extremely well, and the kids too!

Unfortunately the only downside to this is that I am no longer working for my mother's establishment. We had some unresolved issues that could not be worked out. But no worries, I got a job in a local law firm here in town as an administrative assistant and couldn't be more joyous... :)

We are now living together and things couldn't be better. He treats Kaycee and I like gold, we are always doing things together, his family likes me, and we've already made plans to go back to his reunion next year so he can introduce us to the rest of his family. I've told him about everything in my past and he has been the most compassionate person I've ever encountered. So by the looks of things I won't need the relationship help any further, but I will still be around on these message boards. With everything I've experienced through the last few years, and the knowledge I've gained, I'd love to help anyone else through their problems that I can.

Thanks again everyone,
Lost_Spyrit

Lostspyrit!!! How great to hear from you!!!


I am so glad that things have turned out so well and that you're so happy! It's such a great change from where you were before, and I am so glad you had enough love and belief in yourself that you knew you deserved better than what you were getting before. This just has to make you feel more impowered and sure of yourself, doesn't it? There's nothing like first-hand experience to learn those lessons but good! If you're like me, when you look back at your old life you just shake your head and wonder why in the world you put up with it so long, huh?


Thanks so much for letting us know how you are, I've wondered how things were going for you and I'm thrilled that things are going so well and that you're so happy. I love that you'll be hanging around the boards to help out too, it'll be great to have you around! What a great post, you made my day!


P.S. I see a slight name change. Do I detect a forgotten password? ;o)

Hey cl-2nd_life,

I'm so glad to hear from you, as you were one of the biggest supports I had through all those hard times. I've actually just sit back and think about all these years and what I have gone through, and yes I wonder why in the world I sat back and let it all happen or condoned it in the first place.

Ah well, I guess in the long run I wouldn't be the person I am today if I had not gone through everything that I have. I'll be happy to help anyone that has gone thru, or is currently going through relationship problems such as mental, physical abuse, as well as other issues such as drug/alcohol related problems as this is what I've experienced and learned from over my life.

Thanks again, and you'll see me around.

P.S. Yes I did forget that password due to that I haven't been around for awhile... :)
