It sounds as if you are doing wonderfully with H. I try to take my kids on adventures and they get so excited. Can't do anything too nerve wracking with 4 in tow though. thanks for checking in on me and glad you seem to be doing well.

Well - the rope is well and truly dropped - I've met a wonderful woman and am not looking back...I tried the best I could with DBing - I truly did - I hung in for 2 + and tried my utmost to embrace the whole philosophy - I learnt a lot about myself along the way - but I'm not hanging around any longer...
I think another chapter should be added to the book....GF12, your sitch resembles mine immensely. Even your thought process is similar. I may have said this before elsewhere, a new person in ones life to concentrate on does wonders for the rope and or turning the page. Although, some of us take a while longer to accept and move on, that new person (although she or he may not develop into a life partner) definately help to move on.
Thanks friends - I'm very grateful for your words of encouragement - and all the help I got here...
The last 2 + years have been incredibly tough and I wouldn't want to repeat them but I did learn an awful lot through posting and through the replies and others' sitches...
And at last I'm pleased to say - with real conviction Onwards and Upwards!!!
