Laurie, hugs to you.

LOL, snoopy, yes, and now a zebra too.


Kelsea is all excited to have brothers. This woman has 6 kids. 3 older and 3 younger than Kelsea.
I wonder what Bri will say.

I was just having a bad moment last night. I needed to talk it through because Kelsea is watching me. During all this, how I behave is shaping her and her relationship with her dad.
I'll be fine, I am fine.

And this is why so many of us have so much genuine affection and respect for you Laurie.
I remember when you went through the split, and I continue to admire you more than I can say, as a person and a mom.
What goes around, comes around, not only for him, but for YOU.
many many hugs to you!!

Laurie, have really nothing to say but just giving you a

Well, she has been a member of this board since 1999 and she has almost 29,000 posts. That breaks down to an average of 13 posts per day to this board alone during a 6 year period. I wonder if she visits other boards as well.

What do you think?

I think if you don't have something nice to say, you ought to just keep your pixels to yourself.

Laurie is one of the sweetest people on the net and is always there for others when they need a listening ear. I'd be willing to bet at least 10 of her average 13 posts a day are posts in support of other people. And honestly, I could crank out 13 posts a day (and do!) in a matter of an hour or so. I think its a little over the top to insinuate her posting on the DIS caused the breakup of her marriage......

What Ann said!

We love you just the way you are, even if you DON'T have a zebra or horses.

Your time in the sun is coming, just you wait and see.

I don't think I would be taking it so well if he was marrying the person he went to after me. I remember saying something about him making sure she did not come over because I would not be responsible for my actions. I haven't seen my ex-friend in 3 years.

If you don't mind my asking, how did things end with your ex and ex friend? I remember reading about the situation and couldn't believe the betrayal by both of them! You certainly got a double whammy.

I hope karma finds your ex-friend as well.

I don't mind. I don't exactly know. He didn't say much when he moved back into his parents house. I do know he lived there off and on for almost a year and then it was over.
And Karma already got her. She got what she worked at getting for so long, then he ended up not being able to stand to be in the same room with her.

 

[grlpwrd]

Laurie, you are a class act. Just remember why he is your ex.

Oh yeah.. about post count... I am a member of a very popular couponing forum and had close to 10,000 posts since 1998. Many of us actually like our online lives spreading goodness and cheer, sharing good times and bad, and finding deals. Some just love DIS'ing a lot more than the rest of us, too.

Thanks for the response. I have always heard the saying, "What goes around, comes around.", but rarely do you see it. There is satisfaction in seeing those that wreak havoc get what they had coming.

You have a great perspective on things. Do something extra nice for yourself. See some good comedies. Try something new.

And if you feel yourself getting a little down, repeat what you've stated here. "He's someone else's problem now."

Laurie. Mine is getting married December 23rd...want to start a pity party thread

[Hillbeans]

Hugs to you....

I've been married now for 6 years, however most if not all of my previous ex-boyfriends married the person they dated right after me. It's never easy to let go of the past, but i'm hoping you'll find happiness just as he has.

Best of luck to you.

... 13 posts a day when you are on a computer all day at work is nothing.

That is indeed a remarkable work ethic.

Sorry......but that is

I'm jumping in late here and probably can't add anything positive that hasn't already been said, but will give my .02 anyways! Hold your head high! I know it takes 2 to make a marriage and 2 to break a marriage in most cases, but he was the one that chose to bail with someone else and not try to make it work with you and your girls. You kept you and your dd's going after he left and look how far the three of you have come! You have goals and ideas about what you want out of life. Stay true to yourself and you will be fine in the long run. Unlike you, he doesn't even come close to having his act together and will probably never do enough soul searching to figure out what he wants out of life and will continue drifting from one thing or person to another. Take care.

 

[Serena]

Now, don't make me cry, I've got to get to work.

I will be fine. I have done a lot of learning in the last few years. I've got more to go, but I have the room to grow now. It feels good.

I gotta go. thank you all for being here for me.
