Seeking Serenity...

Shel ~

Ouch...that is so going to hurt! I'd love to be a fly on the wall when he gets that dose of reality.

Not even close to the pain he has inflicted on me...

Unlike him, I don't have it in me to be vicious or cruel...Just fair.

I love my new lawyer!!

Without him I would have never known this stuff...I would still be taking advice from Legal Aid and spinning in circles.

(((Hugs)))

Serenity cursing? Serenity being ruthless? I feel sorry for H.

Minus the cursing you should be saying - It is about damn time!

As for the dating...In time it will come...All this has been done on His time and I will not rush anything He doesn't want me to do.

(((Hugs)))

Gardener, my friend ~

Keep kicking "detached-but-Mama-Bear" butt

I warned my H...

The biggest mistake he made wasn't the A nor was it abandoning me and the boys or even cutting us off financially...

The biggest mistake he made was giving me time to become strong...

Each day became a release out from under his control...

Each day I was able to take back a part of my soul...

Each day I was able to take the unbelievable pain and focus it into strength and faith instead of pity and bitterness.

I fell along the way, so many times however my friends here, my support system IRL and Him kept picking me back up again...

There was no option for failure.

And in the midst of all this, you continue to be Drive-By-Serenity, popping in to this thread and that thread spreading wisdom and caring.

I think it was Greek as well as Wifey who told me to do that...

Even though I don't have much change, I can "drive" along and see where I could maybe be of some help...

Give back to the ones who helped me come so far.

AND to give me comfort and insight through your absolutely amazing blog

I am honored you read it and humbled you feel that way ~ Thank you.

Always in my prayers ~ Each and every one of you.

Hello All ~

Miss me?

You know you can't get rid of me that easily.

Nothing has changed with my sitch, we are still headed for a D, however I have changed in more ways then I ever counted on...

During the past 16 months, I have had some serious time for soul-searching...

I have met some fantastic people here as well as in real life...

I have been to the very bottom of the valley and now I am starting my journey towards the top of the mountain...

I still recall joining this board a year ago, it seems like a lifetime ago...

Never knowing what He truly had in store for me and my situation...

After much prayer and conversation, I am ready to move towards the life He is calling for me and will be going back to school...

Not just any normal school though, I am going to go to Seminary School, hopefully Fall semester and I am going for a Masters of Divinity...

The seed was planted a few months ago by a member of this board and it has taken root and won't let go...

So I am going to go for it.

Excited as all get out, little scared as well however I have so many wonderful people who have my back that I know I can't fail.

And even if I didn't have anyone covering my back, I know I have Him and that is truly all I need.

((((Hugs))))
