While I don't believe we should contain the funny or cute, it was meant to be free. I don't think the entire world is ready for it yet.

We hit 10 this morning, so I closed the group.

do you guys know why someone wouldn't have the little LOG button below a post of theirs? One of the mentees doesn't have it so I didn't know how to leave an inspire for her today.

FYI - There is an AWESOME radio station out of Phoenix. I listen to it all day.

They are still asleep today - what is going on over there? - LOL

wgraves7582 - 2010-04-09 9:01 AM

I thought you were caught up yesterday Kim

wgraves7582 - 2010-04-09 10:12 AM

OK - I remember you catching up somewhere - LOL  Good thing we only have 3 threads to keep tabs on each other during!

wgraves7582 - 2010-04-08 8:53 AM

Ann(e) sounds like we are twins that married twins - LOL

I am the biggest jerk and most selfish person in the world but I would do anything at the drop of a dime for about 99.9% of the worlds population.

Care to explain that to me???????  Because I am really F'ing interested in knowing how that can be!!

hmmmmm sounds like me too! Although I will say I say the same about my own hubby and I think the issue is we(he) will do anything for everyone else but not his own family...inlaws think I am selfish because I do my own thing and say I don't do enough for hubby and the kids but I spent the last 10 yrs doing for everyone else and feel like if I had just given a bit of time to myself I wouldn't have depleated all of me to need time now... not sure I said that all  the right way but I will be the first to admit I need to find a balance..just don't know how to say "no"

wgraves7582 - 2010-04-09 9:21 AM

I am worried she is going to call me out for saying something somewhere else that I thought I said in the thread she is in at the time.  It is like being married all over again - LOL

skrtrnr - 2010-04-08 8:18 PM ok.  well.  that went better than expected.

i just got back from the in law conversation....and....well....it went really well.

i kind of got the impression i wont mention him by name that there were going to be all sorts of issues, and there were none.

though.  i have to say that 'crafted' the conversation in such a way, from the very beginning (they said i could start, so i did) so that the focus was on the KIDS (as well it should be) rather than dredging up 19 years worth of issues (and what would be healthy or productive about that??)

both inlaws are ON BOARD w the whole MOM AND DAD MIGHT BE GETTING A DIVORCE, BUT WE'RE STILL A FAMILY concept were promoting w the boys...i was told by both of them that im STILL a welcome member of the family and will be included in all family gatherings, holidays, et al.

we all agreed that THIS is in the best interest of the kids.

so.  that.  settles.  that.

very easy peasy...strangely.

but i'll take it.

givemashot - 2010-04-09 12:34 AM Good Grief Gouhlies!! A Gouhlette like me leaves for a day of busy-ness and "werk" to come home and find that not only are we chatty here, but also on the Gouhlie mentee thread. I was gonna post my bio, but bow I feel like (an even bigger) DORK for doing it on page 9! Good grief!

deehtz - 2010-04-08 8:54 PM Stacie, you are doing AWESOME thru all of this.  You are doing everything you can to make the way forward better for your boys (and really for yourself, too).  Hang in there.

ironannekidd - 2010-04-09 5:58 AM

Stacie I am so happy for you. I know this whole process is a difficult one, but the way you are handling it just puts me in awe.

I wish nothing but the best for you and your family.
