Wow, first time I have ever been shotgun 
SW, I meant to congratulate you on 1000 days. What an inspiration you and all of the Julyers are
Leigh, congrats on selling your home so quickly. That is exactly what happened to us so I can relate Have you found another home yet?
Had a rough night last night. My daughter's school called yesterday around 2pm asking me to come pick her up - she was complaining of a tummy ache and had a fever. Got her home and she started throwing up. Guessing she had the awful bug I had last weekend? Poor thing threw up for 5 hours
We didn't get much sleep, but the whole time I just kept feeling so grateful that I was sober and fully there for her. She seems better today so I think we'll just be taking it easy. Supposed to get snow today anyway, ugh. Really praying little Abby doesn't get it. I can't imagine a 16 mo throwing up for 5 hours
Hope you all have a wonderful day!

Hiya Ladybug 
hi Julyers 
Is Abby really 16 months old already ! How time flies.
You sound really good, I'm so happy for you that you seem to be on track honey. I'm so glad you talked everything through with your hubby
Leshar, I've been thinking about this Mark thing.
You're really not doing anything wrong. I think you get on really well together and he hasn't thrown himself at you.
I really believe though, having been there myself, that him being home still and under the same roof as his wife will have its problems.
You can't get away from the fact that he's still in the marital home .
No matter how nice the guy, I still wouldn't be convinced he is not still sleeping with his wife unless he had moved out.
I don't think it's fair of your friend at all to come down on you like that. You're a grown woman & you don't need judgements.
The only thing here that bothers me is you getting hurt. You have started to get feelings for him & that's going to be hard if he changes his mind and wants to give his marriage another go.
Just look after yourself & try not to get in too deep yet honey, even though your heart is telling you otherwise. Don't worry about ANY gossip whatsoever . It's just that ...gossip! It thrives everywhere. Hold your head high and walk in like you own the room girlfriend.
This will sort itself out, why do things have to be so bloody complicated? Why couldn't he have been single ? Nothing is ever cut and dried is it lol. Life can be a right pain in the butt!
I'll pop back a bit later , the cats need to go to bed and the doggies need to come inside to their beds
Hiya Wolfy, Venus, Let, Leigh, Dee, Crois, Bob, & whoever I've missed !
Hugs
Xxxxx

I'm doing really well thanks 
I've been staying at Gawler River , it's been wonderful waking up to fresh country air every day.
I came home yesterday, I've really missed my cats and dogs.
I spent the day out with 2 of my girls today, so that was nice.
My AV screamed at me all day yesterday but I beat it. It's so worth it. I refuse to do a day 1 again.
I'm feeling really well. Don't let it beat you honey xxx love you

Thanks to everyone, Venus, Casey, Dee, Snoozy for your support. Good to see you Snoozy! Ladybug, I'm sorry you're having a rough time with your daughter. I hope your little one doesn't get it. Please stay the course. Drinking solves nothing. I'm very down in the dumps, but I don't think of drinking.
Mark emailed this am and said we should get together again to talk about our theatre experiences. I don't think it's right, really, he's a married man, and although he hasn't said or done anything inappropriate , by the very nature of being in touch with me, a single woman, who may be vulnerable because of widowhood (feeling much stronger actually guys, thanks to you all here and SR) he's not considering my position in all this. Guess I felt what the harm etc, but I'm proud and don't like ppl to get the wrong idea. Guess I'm rambling.
I'm lonely and would like more friends but this is too complicated!
Wolfie, I love the plant! Very exotic!

Hi everyone, Happy Sunday! Just got back from church. Nothing else really planned for the day. Need to do laundry and put away Easter decorations that I have been saying I am going to (and haven't) for the last week or so.
Leshar, I also have to agree with Dee and say that I think you are making the right decision regarding Mark. I don't mean to sound negative or discourage you, but my Mom once dated (and fell madly in love) with a man who was still living with his wife and claiming to be getting a divorce and he never did. It was all a bunch of BS and It took my mom a long time to get over it. Not saying Mark is doing this, but you are absolutely right, you need to think about your own well being for now. You never know what will change with his situation in the future. Hugs, I know it's hard.
