Well my phone got shut off it was still in the ex's name he wouldn't call and get it changed so I waited till it got disconnected then I didn't have any money to get one of my own so I can say it was nice to not have that bill but I missed everyone here so much. Boy it has been awhile and I'm still getting the you may lose your job on a monthly basis but so far so good. I paid off all of my credit cards. I never thought I'd pay they off but they are gone and I can actually save some money to get a house or if I lose my job but hey I won't have to freak out about it. To all newbies this is a wonderful and great place and I'm happy to see some faces I still know and can't wait to get to know the rest of you but I am proof that you can get out and you can be happier and you can still have bad days but hey at least they are my bad days and not up to someone else. Kids are doing well my dd doesn't like school but I don't like the teacher either so we will move on. So much has changed in my life and with a long break from this board I feel alittle down go figure but it will change soon as my moods usually do. I want to give a big and wonderful thank you to mizlizzy, mindspeak, sweetdreams, jeep, kanga, jackie, ruby, and oh so many more you all are carried with me daily. And let me say this I got back and scrolled back for hours and literly jumped out of my chair and danced when I seen the post from onlyme. I smiled and tears of happiness flowed and for anyone who thinks it is just not possible it is.
Oh on a fun note I'm the non poster child for no contact my ex now lives with his new girl and let me tell you I think that we all like her more that he does. I couldn't have ever dreamed of a better girl we get along so well. She actually came and helped me with my car when it wouldn't start. Kids like her and she is leagal moral and decent. Oh what is she going to do when she meets the true shades of my ex. She was pregant and lost the baby and I felt so bad for her and my kids are so sad my ds wants a little brother and my dd wants someone younger than her. I know talking to her is probally not recommened but we just discuss things like the kids and when I'm going to pick them up and my ex has found that she can watch the kids while he runs out. I just wonder what he is doing. No I know what he is doing but I watch what I say and it is up to her to make a decision on her own. I really need my own life. Oh yeah the new girlfriend is going to love his demenor if I ever actually go out on a date.LOL
Say some prayers one of the girlies at work man is over in Iraq and I pray he comes home safe and normal. I like this one and I hope things work out for them.
Once again I need my own life but for now two kids and 60 hours a week or more I find it easier to live through other people. HUGS and Prayers to you all.>Jo

I'm so sorry you got your phone disconnected, but thrilled you got it turned back on and that you are out of debt. You have certainly come a long way, baby!
Whatever the future brings you will always be ok Jo, you are a strong person and I am so very proud of you.
Huge Hugs!

It's wonderful to see you! You sound like life is treating you good these days. I'm still in the same mess; some days good, some not so good. Only now the story has changed some, but it's a long one.
Hugs,
Jackie
It's so good to hear from you!! I have wondered, so much, how you and your children are doing! You have come SO very far from "once upon a time" when you were a "newbie" here :)
While it sounds like things are going well for you, in spite of you still working SO much, and spending SO much time "taking care of everyone else", please, take time to "take care of Jo", and take what time you can squeeze out to focus on yourself, your life now, and your healing. I do understand how hard that can be, but I can also tell you just how rewarding it is also, for you, and your precious babies.
Please, stay in touch as you can, and know that we ALL are here for you, every single step of the way!!
(*Here* as I *can* be too, close by, always!(
HUGS!!!
