SMW,

I just caught up on your post. Air craft carriers are amazing. I have had the opportunity to tour one before. It was decommisioned at the time so it was spooky as they were prepping to bury it at sea. So empty, dark, unfurbished...USS Independence. I toured it with a friend of ours that served on it during Vietnam... it is here near where we live and he was out visiting us and Hubby got some strings pulled for us to visit us. I would spend most of my time lost on those things.

Anyway, I read your latest post and want to encourage your faith and stand.... your H's world has not changed because he has been stuck in ground hog day for the past 7? months.... he has not had the opportunity to see any thing different in his world. Your journey is really just beginning because you have changed, you are new and it will be seen by him.

I don't know if I ever told you but my SIL ... remember I am from south Fl.... gets to go see Bob and Charlene every other Monday..... She has been standing for 3 years. She calls me on her drive down there on Mondays and we catch up then usually. They are the real deal. She has had the opportunity to have dinner with them on several occasions and if you ever see them reference a Mike that's about her H. That is my H brother. Your words or starting to sound so much like hers... I am the only one of our side of the family that gets it. I so pray that at some point our family will see the value of both of our standings and ironically, if she had not been going thru this before me ..... I would have thrown in the towel on the first bomb immediatley because that's what I knew. What I am trying to say is...because people see her and you doing this... you effect so many and you don't even know it. God's light is surely shining thru you upon others.... it will shine upon your H as well.

Blessings
