wishing, hoping~ Thanks for pointing that out.... no kids or step kids for either of us, (Snodderly I really don't think I could deal with another teenager!) LOL Wishing that's interesting that your H actually stated he's messed up and searching for happiness (in all the wrong places!). It's interesting he's aware, but not aware enough to realize nothing material on this earth or countless other people are going to make him happy, he's got to find it inside himself. Oh the messes people create to find something that's been in them the whole time... Wizard of Oz much? hahahahaha
Snodderly~It's sad but I pretty much figure any time he's being nice or semi-nice he must be up to something. Not enough popcorn in the world to sit and watch this circus go through..... Although it may be a good time to try that salt and vinegar popcorn.... always wondered if it's as good as the chips....
canadianMrs~I don't know how you missed this tread either, but I'm glad you found, hopped on board my crazy train and are loving it.
T~OMG, you are a freaking genius! A remote flusher that would be hilarious!! I wonder if they make such a thing..... I must research this..... oh the fun I could have..... hmmmm..... how else could I mess with him....oh no everyone, my evil side is coming out ...
I really do think they think we are stupid sometimes... like the whole wanted to save money by not staying at a hotel... yeah, right.... if I believe that will you tell me another one? I had a random thought about the hotel thing, cause it's just too strange for him to drive that same 2 hours the next day instead of just stay in the hotel, he would have been charged a cancellation fee, not to mention the almost $300 he took out of the bank that same day.... my thought was this.... wonder if my friend, who's car he doesn't know, who picked me up late and semi-late, made him think I may have company Saturday evening and he thought he would show me by showing up and "catching" me? Just a possibility....who really knows, but he cared enough to open the curtains both times I was getting picked up to try and sneak a peek at who was dropping by.....which I still think is darn funny!
Also, I wanted to share this, I was visiting my dad and his wife this evening and was talking a bit about this site and how much help everyone has been on here and how grateful I am for all the advice, encouragement and empathy. My dad said something that I didn't really think about, but now I am super thankful for as well. He said, "Just think how lucky you are to have a place like that to be able to talk with other people from all over going through the same thing you are. If you think about it women going through this 20 years ago wouldn't have been so lucky, they would have to possibly had gone through this same thing alone." How true.... he really made me think, I am so very thankful for this site and everyone on it, and for going through this awful time in the age of the internet..... Imagine feeling lucky during this the worst period in my life so far, I will add this to the list of things that make me happy. I would also like to add to my happy list driving by the Martin's Potato Roll factory on the way to work when they are baking bread.... oh the smell.... so amazing.....
