First night of Divorce Care group. Yes indeed, it's me and six women...vulnerable and hurting...oh yeah! This is divorced guy's heaven lol...and the desserts were incredible! Seriously though, it's a nice number of people and the Pastor is a marriage and family therapist. One lady's husband had walked out on her only three days ago. I told her I admire her courage in coming, I don't know whether I would have. I'll go back...there were three different kinds of pie!!
I really liked the Marriage Matters ministry at my church. It was 12 weeks at a time. I went through it three times then was a table leader another time.
The past 18 months I've been too busy with school, basketball, baseball umpiring to take part.
And I've missed it. I was a real mess the first two times and it opened my eyes to all the things I'd done wrong.
Now, I'm just a normal mess, but still it would be good to have people around like me.
Maybe in the spring ... although I'm not sure the professor would understand why I'm going through it again.

I do not eat kid pie...I'm a vegetarian lol. I was talking to my supervisor and she and her husband actually lead the Divorce Care group at her church. She belongs to the same denomination as I do. Small world.
Here's my update. Tuesday D19 texted me that she'd lost her $106 bus pass. I texted back "life suucks". She got a little upset at that remark. I told her that I understood she was upset but I was not thrilled to be out $106 either but life goes on. She then bought herself $50 worth of transit tokens out of her money (very responsible decision)...and then two days later found her bus pass. Today a cell phone company calls and she owes $200 on a phone she stupidly took responsibility for on behalf of a friend who didn't have a credit card. To cancel the plan will be $400 plus the $200 amount owed. She has talked to her friend in Hong Kong who says she will take care of the issue immediately...the same friend who in six months did not ever call the company to transfer ownership of the phone. Why did I have kids again?
