sounds like a great weekend C2H, and you must tell me what store sells the bible in MP3 format for that low price!! wow! I didnt' know they had such things! (and i work for a co. that deals with the laterst/greatest audio formats, lol)
glad your sister joined you nothing like having a sis! just took mine out for her bday lunch 5mins ago.

30something 2kids survivor of S, MLC, A, D I have peace in my heart, at last.
My kids grew up in the church so they do not no know what it is like to not go to a good teaching church. It is social, it is safe and the kids are so loved but they have to develop their own relationship for themselves. My kids get it but they have also seen their mom chuck out some very foundational beliefs because she "fell out of love (do not know what chapter and verse that falls under)."
Still if we love them, live out our faith and pray for them, I believe they will be fine
cat, I got the materials from the church bookstore. I attend a non denominational church that is affiliated with a more than a thousand churches. There is an audio division for the main church which likely helped produce the materials. The reading of the MP3 is very generic that anyone could have recorded. Pero el leerlo en espanol. ("but he reads it in Spanish" my best guess?)
I still have to load it on my ipod so I can start practicing after all, "yo voy a espana in ciento cincuenta dias!" ("I am going to Spain inf 150 days").

that's one of my favorite movies and you would make a great George.
Ya know C2 I think you're right. Just because they don't say it it doesn't mean that they don't get it. I wonder how it makes them feel to know that their Mom broke the commandments and went against everything that they've been taught.
I was wondering, is it possible to be friends with our exes, in a healthy way?
Hope you don't mind me asking you guys, it just seems that your mindset is the one I'm aiming for in all of this. I'm sorry if it is not the done thing to ask a question about yourself on someone else's thread.
My H seems very keen to be friends with me, primarily for the sake of the children, but also I think now he has been finally honest with me after all these years about who he really is (and the fact that for him our marriage is over) it has introduced a friendship between us that we haven't had for a long time. I'm sad for what has happened, but also relieved, don't feel animosity towards him. Maybe it is just early days for us.
Is this something I should be aiming for as a christian? Or should I, like others have said, aim for just a civil relationship? I'm a bit confused...

The right answer would be Yes.... it is the Godly thing to do to love others just as God loved us. Now applying that to us made of flesh and blood is a process. For some it is a very long process that involves stages of overcoming anger, hurt bitterness, and unforgiveness. No two people are the same and we all seem to reach one stage felling a victory only to find ourselves having fallen backwards in another.... and it just seems to cycle that way. Time truly is the great healer... and working through all of these feelings is essential to a healthy PMA.
Your split seems fairly fresh and this is just my .02, so gleen from it only what you deem necessary. H is probably feeling some guilt over ditching his family and thinks that being a friend will help smooth over any bad feelings you might be harboring. If you are still in love with him then you are probably still desperate in a way to hold on to anything that might remain of you as a couple. Tread carefully as you may be setting yourself up for disappointment with expectations you aren't even realizing.
Sorry this is so short... I have to get to work. I will try to check back in later. You should get lots of advice from those far wiser than I.... keep posting and praying.

Yes, that's what I was afraid of.
Apologies for the hijack C2H.

Happy bday to B as well!!!! Yes, what a small world.
D and I had a nice mini celebration at Starbucks this morning. I gave her a beautiful card with the pic of a young girl facing out to the ocean jumping in the water! Of course I wrote something sentimental. I photo copied some dinero and then wrote this was her voucher for a daddy daughter shopping spree plus lunch. She liked that very much. I also gave her some trinkets and a Starbucks card. The person before us used a Starbucks card and then asked if we wanted it because it had a 45cent balance. So we used the card and then I put another $10 on it and got a gift card envelope. When my d went to go get napkins, I pulled out my trinkets and the starbucks card and gave them to her. The card was so she would remember our celebration.
I will have a party for her with my family this weekend, food and some sort of game night/day. It will be a fun time.
Love my life,
George
