Shotgun, So glad to hear that you're feeling better! Sorry that you had a fight with STBXW. I can't imagine how hard that would be. My H doesn't want to see me or talk to me so we have been NC. For the most part when he did see me, he would just ignore me. I can't imagine as lonely as I am and as much as I miss him, to have to fight with him. I'm glad you felt better afterward though. Someday your W will think back and realize what she did and how badly she messed up by letting you go. Of course, by then you won't care at all because you will be happy with your new life.
Take care of yourself and have fun with your GAL activities!

Thank you MB. I think that a part of the problem in my marriage was that I was never that guy who would stand up to her. I certainly challenged her intellectually but I just struggle to be forceful with her. Maybe that is changing though. I'm sorry but I haven't kept up on your situation as my own struggles have kept me from being able to absorb the pain of anyone else. I do care though and I am sorry that you miss your husband so severely. For some of us no contact is the only option. I hope that you do something for you and something fun this weekend. I overslept this morning and missed yoga but a friend just called and invited me rabbit hunting. I haven't hunted in years but I need to get out of this house and do something! Of course I will be rooting for Peyton to win another Super Bowl and have several options for watching the game. God Bless you MB!

Rouky you always make me smile! This time I laughed out loud. If you will come to Indiana I will pay for your plane ticket! Somehow I knew that you would know what to do with a rabbit. I'm going to go hunting in an hour and I will be thinking of your delicious meal that you would make for me. And don't forget that S13 and I will be making Maple syrup this month. So you have to root for the Broncos. The reason is a little complicated but basically The quarterback for the Broncos played in Indianapolis Indiana for a long time and we still root for him. There is nothing more fun than being in Indy when the Colts or Peyton Manning are playing. You and I will have to find a pub and watch the game there. I was so lucky to be in Europe when the last World Cup was played and was in Amsterdam when The Netherlands played. It was amazing to see everyone out in the street and wearing the colors. We were given blue, orange and white ribbons to wear by some nice local people and watched the game with a few hundred people. I love how sport brings all cultures together. Thank you again for making me smile as it would take sandpaper to wipe it off of my face! I hope your weekend is going well.

So we shot three rabbits. It was an absolutely gorgeous day with warm sunshine and only a light breeze. We had four beagles and they are so fun to watch and to listen to. They work their little tails off chasing those rabbits and funny enough they don't seem to care that you have shot one. They just take off on another trail! I hunted with a couple of very good friends and it was great to be with them and to be out of the house and out in nature. We saw plenty of other animals and smelled the fresh air of the countryside.
Rouky you must tell me how to prepare the rabbits as I am sure that you have some wonderful way of cooking them. All I ever do is make a stew from them. I cook them in a crock-pot until the meat falls off of the bones and then scoop all the bones out. Then I pour in a couple of cans of mixed vegetables. As simple as it sounds it is really quite good.
Now I am off to hang out with my sisters and maybe hit a bar or two. We will be safe as I don't drink anything when we go out like that. I hope that everyone is having a great weekend and finding a reason to smile!

It's okay Shotgun. My stitch is easy to keep up with . I'm in NC. That's it. Nothing ever changes because with NC, you never see each other. Just NC.

MB I feel for you but you have to hang in there with NC. You are putting space between you and your husband and either it will cause him to reflect on your relationship or it will help you to heal. Unfortunately only time will tell and only time will help you. Bob Dylan said "Get busy living or get busy dying". Maybe that will be the title of my next thread. Or maybe you should use it. We all have to get on with life because we cannot change the past. Go find a new club of study group or simply find a Bible study. Something to help you meet new people. I will say that I have met a ton of new people who I would never had otherwise and of course they love me and I love them. And you never know where that will lead. Have a great day MB and I am praying that you find a little bit of peace today!

You are on the right track Shotgun, MB listens to Shotgun. As hard as it is I have met people I'd have never met if this hadn't happened. Not that I'm glad it happened but I have found back the confidence I had and I like who I am now. No way I am going back!
Rabbits with mustard, mushroom and cream is my speciality. So Shotgun I'll delightfully oblige to cook it for you :-).
Rouky there is no end to the reasons to love you. Such a fool is your husband. As always I am happy to see you here. I would love to try your recipe for rabbit. I missed you at the Super Bowl party. It was pretty low key but fun. We were all happy for Peyton Manning for winning another one. He gave us so many fun years. Rouky when you get here we will go watch a football game. A lot of women here have discovered that there are tons of guys at a game that are all worked up and excited and oozing testosterone. You are so pretty that one of them will steal you away from me but that's how it goes with the good ones like yourself. I hope that your week is going well and that you continue to be strong. Thinking of you always!
MB I hope that you have gotten out and done something with yourself. Maybe you should get out to a ball game or some other event that has a lot of cute guys. Maybe find a bar that has a trivia night. At any rate get moving and enjoy life. It is waiting for all of us and only we can hold ourselves back. Praying for peace!
