Thanks for the welcome back. As for me, I'm not doing very well. Hubby & I have separated and he has decided he wants a divorce. Oh, and he told me this on our 4th anniversary. Lovely, huh? To make matters worse, I had to have my beloved Josie put down in early May. That was so hard and I miss her immensely, especially now. She would've been a big comfort. Adding insult to injury, I'm having to live with my parents again. They're great people and I'm very thankful that they're in a position to help me, but it's still not what any of us wanted me to have to do. Needless to say, I'm battling severe depression. We've had to increase my meds and I'm seeing a counselor once a week. Sorry I don't have better news. How are you guys doing?

I am so very sorry to see this Patti, and extend my sympathy to you and your family. You will continue to be in my prayers. Tami

Greetings, Mary Ann and Jammer. I, too, am sending good thoughts and hopes your way, Mary Ann. Along with some warm hugs. ((((((Mary ann and Jammer)))))) And prayers to the One who loves us with a limitless, everlasting love, that things may go well with you and that complete healing may be forthcoming. During a recent discussion on the causes of a someone's enjoying good health, someone suggested that good genes help a lot. Someone else said that a positive attitude, feeling at home in this precious world that God has given us was very important. And someone else said that taking care of one's body, mind and spirit were very important components, as well. It appears that you've done well on most of those counts, so far. Keep up the good work. ole joyful
