Hi, CoolMom6
How are you?
What qualities do you seek most in friends?
How is your back doing these days?
Did you get some good sleep last night?
Have you made any more plans, hopes, or dreams to leave Las Vegas? Do you believe it's God's plan for you to be there?
How is married life?
Congratulations!
Hey, sorry I just now saw this!!!
I am fine these days, my friend. Very little depression now, feeling loved, feeling useful most days, and just feeling blessed.
My friends;
Number one they have to be genuine. I don't care too much what they do for a living, or if they are introverted or outgoing, or if they have tons of friends, or I'm their only one, but they do have to be real with me and with God. I do have long-time friends who are not Christians, but they don't fake that they are either. Nothing I can stand more than pretend Christians.
I do desire to have more true Christ-followers in my life, but we are all human and have to take turns lifting each other up, and not keeping tabs about it, either.
My back is a mess; lol. But since we moved into this home with NO carpet, only handmade tile (uneven), it makes it hard to find a place to do my floor exercises and stretches, but hubby got me a mat, so I just got started again after over a month of none....so pain initially, but exercise keeps me limber, very important.
I sleep incredibly well now, next to Joe. He is very comfy to be with, doesn't snore, and is cuddly with me and even with my girls if they climb inbetween us. I finally feel loved and safe for the first time in my life.
I TRIED to leave, as you know, I almost got married to G from Indiana. Poor guy; lol.
But, I am happy now. We live in a good neighborhood, the school my dd goes to is excellent. The boys come and go, but they love it here on the weekends. My hubby is 5 mins. from work.
Yes, it is going to get steaming, stinking, boiling, baking HOT in the summers, as usual, but right now, it's highs of 60-70 degrees F. and very nice, so I'm happy

Yes, I believe it's God's plan for me and Joe to raise these 6 kids, and love them and each other the best we can.
Married life is better than I've ever experienced it~~
He is the absolute most wonderful man and partner I could have ever found, and GOD found him for me!!!!
After years of hurt, pain, rejection, abuse, and lonliness, God brought this man who had gone thru the same, and we are healing and loving each other thru Christ.
Thanks for the good wishes~~~
Now, where's your thread?? LOL
