We have never had a bill that low before, but I think it's due to our new dryer. Later this month we are going to get a new washer to hopefully cut that bill down. Plus I think I am going to get real aggressive with the gym and start showering their too. Not necessarily to save money, but it just makes sense.
Keep the faith NLT. I am sure that was the word God wanted you to hear.
Stay strong! You will get through this.

I am sorry you are having such a sad day. I know how you feel and how difficult it must be for you. I am glad for you that you get at least a bit of comfort by coming to this BB and reading different things. You are in my thoughs. (((HUGS))) xxx
Thank you so much for your support. This site is wonderful! I'm so glad I found it b/c it helps when you are so down.
I just keep thinking about the events of last year at this time & it is so sad! I have never been so shocked in all my life & the way he told me. I had a great day that day, I had been to a luncheon & interviewed for a job. I called my H after the job interview but he didn't answer & didn't call me back like normal but I just thought he was probably busy.
That night I had warmed up some leftovers & we were just sitting down to eat & I was telling him about my day. He said, "I hope you'll be happy" I said, what is wrong, he said we have to talk. I sat back & said ok, he said "I want a divorce". I felt like I had been hit by a brick wall. I've never in my life been so shocked. I never dreamed in a million years that was what would be coming out of his mouth. He just said he didn't love me anymore & we were not meant to be together anymore. I asked him who she was, he said there was no one (we know now that was a lie). I never thought he would go thru with it. After he told me he just left me here by myself!!!! Needless to say I didn't sleep at all!
Ok, I have to stop thinking, it makes me cry but I just had to get it out this morning!
I know that my words are of no consolation to you, and I feel so much hurt for you as I sit here. But there is a book out and a saying by the same name. "Love is Letting Go of Fear." I read it once. Maybe I will read it again someday.
Thank you for posting to my thread. I'll have to find you & see what is going on with you. Actually just being here for me is consolation. I've had such a rough year & can't believe where I am right now. I never in a million years thought this would happen to us, we were so much in love & I never ever thought he would hurt me or I could hurt so bad.
I'll have to see if I can find that book, thank you for recommending it.
I have been working on some things that he left undone after remodeling the kitchen, I found more that needed doing so I'm trying it. It may not be right but it got my mind off my sitch for a little while. I still keep thinking of ex.
If it had not been for the strength from God I never would have made it plus the support here on this site. I still have hope & faith.
Try not to think of the past NLT. It is always hard to look back. Every time I get a look back of the events unfolding from the past I stop myself and say Glam don't go there.
Stay focused on the future it is all that you have right now!
What are your plans for this weekend?

Yes, I know what you mean. I do my best to not think of everything that has gone on for this past year. Sometimes it is so painful!!! I guess with today being a year since he told me it had my mind going back there.
You just don't go to someone & say you want a D when you have never even discussed having problems! Ok, don't go there!!!!
I worked really hard on my kitchen today & I'm really tired. Tomorrow I'm going to church, then come home & watch football. I love football, I wish H was here to watch it with me, oh well maybe one day.
what football games did you watch? i got to see some of the PSU game of some of the ND game.
I am a diehard USC (Univ. of Southern Calif.) fan.

College, I'm a big Alabama fan! NFL, big TN Titans fan! I'm orginally from AL & if you are from there you have to like football!! I hated it when I was a kid, I thought the game never would end, but then I started learning more & more & went to high school football games & asked my Dad LOTS of questions & now I love it!
I worked all day & totally forgot about football starting today, it just seems so early to me.
