Kaboom

I was a regular here back in early 2008 and now I'm back. I visit the site and catch up with other posters every so often, but I haven't posted anything about me in a long time. I debated whether to sign on under a different user name because I’m a little embarrassed to admit the insanity of my situation. Also, I know certain people will think I’m a dumbass (especially my bro, Mike from Tennessee, even though I know he doesn’t post here too often). Was I a dumbass? Maybe a little. I should have asked more questions and resolved a lot of ambiguity in my situation. I'll explain more soon.

In a nutshell, I busted my divorce in September 2008. The last couple of years have been blissful. Not perfect, but very good. It's true that ignorance is bliss. Last Friday I had the mother of all bombs dropped on me... completely out of the blue and it put an end to my happy ending.

Thankfully the changes I made in myself during my DB days are still intact and I still love myself completely – maybe more than ever. I can truthfully say that I'm a special woman with many beautiful qualities. Hooray! It's amazing how much I've changed since my first post back in 2008 (I can barely stomach re-reading my first posts), and I owe a lot of those changes to the personal growth I made during one of the most frustrating times of my life – and from the support I found here.

I'll be back to give the run down in a bit.
