OMG!!! I am so sorry to hear this – please let me know if there is anything I can do to help.
Thanks Vickie. There really isn’t much that anyone can do. I just need to somehow learn to deal with this. I need to find a job, a new home…a new life… It is going to be a long, hard haul.
But helps to know there are those who care. Thanks for being my friend!

Hi Dara
Well another month has almost gone by and I was wondering how you are doing? I don’t know if you are doing the counselor thing or not but do go, even if he won’t. It will help you sort through all of the stuff in your head
hugs

Hi Vickie….thanks so much for thinking about me. I think I am doing pretty good. He has refused counseling, and I can’t afford it…I have joined a divorce care group through my church and am finding it helpful. The facilitator has a Master’s degree in counseling, so he is very helpful.
At this point, I am trying to find a good job. Mark has found a position in Michigan and will be moving by the beginning of November. I will remain in our home until it sells (or hell freezes over whichever comes first!). Obviously not a good time to be trying to sell a $300,000 house….
Overall, I am doing pretty good. Doing some quilting, picked up a new customer who seems to be rather prolific. Joined a women’s Bible study group, first meeting was tonight. Am spending more time with my kids and parents, and that is always a good thing.

Holy crap! I’m so sorry Dara! Like Vickie said, if there is anything I can do to help or if you need someone to listen, please let me know or call. I’ll be certain to pray for you.
Thanks Kelly. I am totally devastated….I am seeing a therapist, and she has suggested that I ask one last time if Mark will see a counselor with me. Our issues are all ‘relationship’ issues, and she feels strongly that we can work this out. A couple of weeks ago, he was totally against seeing anyone. He is in Michigan and has been for over a week. That is where he plans to move after the divorce. He texted a friend that he has had three job offers…. Anyway, when he comes home tomorrow, I will make one last effort at saving this marriage. I can’t make him see a counselor, I can’t make him stay with me. But I have to try one last time….
I appreciate your prayers…right now, my prayer is for a miracle, because that is what I think is needed….

Just checking in. I see Vickie did the same. I’m glad to hear that you are finding support. I’m amazed he found a job in Michigan. Do stay in touch and let us know if there’s anything we can do to help. (By we, I mean me and probably my DH and probably Vickie too.) Saying a prayer for comfort and peace and a job.
Yup, ME TOO!!!!
(you know, what Kelly said)

So, have you found a job? I pray nightly that you do (along with 2 others who also need jobs.)
