I just got back from a womens luncheon at church. It was so good. A friend of mine who sings and plays the guitar beautifully performed. There was also a lady who spoke on the Lessons of Grace. She told about living with her MLC H and how hard it has been for her. She finally decided she had enough enough and is wiping her slate clean. She filed for D last week. It was sad. I cried. I would love to sit down and talk with her. I will keep her in my prayers.
Last night I went to a meeting of the motorcycle club H and I both belonged to. He resigned, and because I was the rider, I had to resign also. The people who he still rides with resigned also. BUT, since the ones in the club are still my friends, they say I can still attend the meetings and go out with them afterward. They don't like what H has done, and keep telling me that he'll find out that the grass is not greener on the other side. After the meeting some of us went out for drinks and a bite to eat. There is a guy who is a member who lost his wife to cancer about a year ago. She too was a friend of mine. He decided to come with us. We went into the restaurant, he sat down by me, and it turned out to be a great night. OMG we talked about everything. How he is coping with his wife's death, how I am coping with my H craziness, life in general. When we all got up to leave, he gave me a hug and kiss goodbye. Oh did that ever feel good! I haven't had that for a long time. It even made MLC H coming in at two this morning not hurt so much. The skunk must have been with the skank! I guess there's no trouble in paradise any longer. Whatever!
The JOY of the LORD is my STRENGTH! I will keep my focus on HIM!
