Not so. I shut my heart to people

down my throat, which is I am sure what God would want me to do. I'd make a bet that any church in any city or town would take the offering from a gay person's hand and use it for the better of the church. Now, who is the sinner?
Ahhh, but I bet no one wants to talk about that. What about the molestation of young boys in the catholic religion? Is that gay too?
I don't even attend church anymore because there has been too much of this wishy-washy stuff going on and all they want is your money anyway.
I serve and praise and pray to my God as I walk through the Garden of Life and he is with me. He walks with me and talks with me everyday. He gets me through the tough times. Without him, I probably wouldn't be a good person. I'm glad to have accepted him into my heart when I was 13 and then again when I was 16, but I am not going to say that gay people are sinners because they're not.

Shut up and fly
I don't fly but I can imagine how irritating it would be sitting next to someone on a plane while they chat on their cell phone! It's bad enough in restaurants!
The European Commission recently OK’d the use of mobile phones on flights in European airspace. The federal government hasn’t done the same yet for flights in U.S. airspace, and House lawmakers are taking steps to make sure it doesn’t.
The overarching reason members are pushing the issue: Cell phone chatter is already driving them crazy.
Rep. Peter DeFazio (D-Ore.), who is sponsoring a no-cell-phone provision as part of the House Federal Aviation Administration reauthorization, said cell phone etiquette has gotten so bad it could take an act of Congress to keep people in line.
“This is like smoking. Once we knew it was a health risk and a nuisance on airplanes, it still took us a long time to undo it,” DeFazio said. “The words ‘cell phone’ and ‘courtesy’ no longer go together. If people aren’t self-policing on [other] transportation, they’ll be no more self-policing on airplanes.”
But does Congress have the right to legislate cell phone etiquette? Passenger rights activists, small businesses and wireless groups say no, arguing that an in-flight conversation should be no more regulated than a crying baby.
“There isn’t any reason why someone having a normal telephone conversation would be irritating people any more than a regular conversation,” said Jot Carpenter, government affairs vice president for The Wireless Association. “Airlines have figured out how to let passengers watch a movie or raise a window shade without bothering other passengers. They’ve also managed to serve alcohol without problems. I think they can tackle this issue, too.”
But House members who support a continuing ban on airborne cell phone calls say they’ve already been irritated plenty by the calls they’ve had to endure on board before takeoff and after landing.
House Aviation Subcommittee Chairman Jerry Costello (D-Ill.) recalled a flight last year when a man seated behind him pleaded into his cell phone for a girlfriend not to leave him. The plane almost didn’t leave the tarmac when the man refused to hang up.
Democratic Rep. Sam Farr, who has accrued some 2.5 million frequent-flier miles from his weekly trips between Capitol Hill and his California district, remembers being forced to listen to a business-class passenger scream into his cell phone and utter a slew of nasty names before the plane took off. The conversation picked up again as the plane pulled up to the gate after landing in San Francisco. When the man announced loudly to the cabin that he had a connection to make, the passengers got their revenge.
“Everyone made sure to block the aisle. He had angered so many people,” Farr said. “For business-class professionals who are flying all the time, getting on the plane is a timeout. I’ve flown across the country with a colleague and never said a word.”
Rep. Sue Myrick (R-N.C.) said she was recently stuck on a flight sitting next to a man who ignored four requests from the flight attendant to wrap up his conversation.
“Common courtesy has gone down the drain, and people don’t have the respect for others like they used to,” said Myrick. “They think they’re the only ones on the whole plane.”
Opponents of the House provision — which would prohibit the FAA and the Federal Communications Commission from reconsidering the existing cell phone ban — argue that lawmakers’ desire to preserve the last cell phone-free frontier could slam the door on a revenue generator for the airline industry and even infringe on passengers’ civil rights.
Rep. John Mica (R-Fla.) said the provision is overbearing and out of line.
“Looks like we’ve got nothing better to do but ban cell phones on aircraft,” he said. “In the meantime, I’d like to see stronger laws to keep dogs from pooping in my yard.”
The lawmaker said he thinks allowing cell phones could help the airlines make money and generate jobs in the long term.
“I’ve been trapped on a plane with people who drink too much, and I’d like to ban that, too,” he said. “But you can’t legislate good behavior.”
“We think this ban is being based on certain members’ concerns over etiquette or anticipation of those kinds of problems,” said Karen Kerrigan, president of the Small Business and Entrepreneurship Council. “If airline passengers want to be rude, there are many other instruments they could use to be potentially rude. I don’t think we want to cut off potential economic opportunities.”
But passengers bothered by in-flight conversations could become a security risk, potentially leading to air rage, point out some lawmakers and the Association of Flight Attendants.
“There are enough triggers and stressors when it comes to flying that if people are talking on their cell phones and their neighbors don’t approve, it could cause some conflict,” said AFA spokeswoman Corey Caldwell. “It is known you can detonate a bomb with a cell phone. That is clearly a threat.”
“I sure as heck don’t want to sit next to a guy for an entire flight on his cell phone. ... I think this could mean fistfights,” said Rep. Michael Capuano (D-Mass.), a member of the House Transportation Committee.
According to a recent five-year study by the FAA, cell phone signals have the potential to interfere with airplane operations in some circumstances, including on older plane models. In some of the tests, wireless phones set off smoke alarms. And until it can be proved beyond a reasonable doubt that cell phones will not interfere with airplanes, the Federal Communications Commission’s ban is not likely to be revisited, an FAA spokeswoman said.
However, a recent overseas study showed that a European provider of in-flight cell phone calls has recorded 10,000 calls without any airplane interference.
Technology experts said DeFazio’s legislation could be the result of a miscommunication.
“This is not the bus rolling down the highway with every passenger talking at the same time,” said Carpenter.
Experts predict only a dozen passengers at the most would be able to use their phones at one time, and international roaming charges would likely apply, making the calls too expensive for mindless chatter. Individual air carriers would also be able to decide whether to deploy the technology and on which routes to offer it.
And then it would be up to the passengers to exercise proper phone etiquette — or not.
Pamela Eyring, director of The Protocol School of Washington, said it’s theoretically possible to be polite on a cell phone on a plane.
“Proximity from other passengers, length of the conversation and loudness all need to be taken into consideration,” she said. “If you are in a window seat, you can turn away from the middle seat and talk quietly for not too long.”
SHUT UP AND HOLD ON!

I always shut mine down
when it is storming because about 10 years ago, I learned my lesson. That before I worked at home or even went to school online, thank God, but we had a storm, I had a surge protector and though that was good enough, but the storm knocked out my computer and I was never able to get it fixed at the time. Just a blue screen, nothing else. It was a total bummer, so now that I totally NEED and DEPEND on my computer, I'm off if it is storming!
so I yelled *shut up, mean mom!*
Today, I snapped. There was this community party sort of deal today for thousands of kids in our city. I was waiting for the crosswalk west to return to my car with my child. There was another mother waiting for the crosswalk north with her poor kid. She was yelling and nagging and grumbling and complaining at this poor youngster, and I just snapped. "Shut up, mean mom!," I yelled (really loud) to her. Unbelievably, she took heed.
I guess my point is impatient parents. If you take on the responsibility of being a parent, then be a good one. She brought me to the boiling point because I have been hearing this everywhere I go -- mothers losing their tempers, usually 20-somethings who probably thought having a child would be fun. Don't they realize the damage words do to impressionable young minds, the fate of our future?
I can't stand her and I think she should keep her fat trap SHUT!
You may have to shut them in a room while at night.
The claws are meant for protection if they were to happen to escape from your home. If clawless, they have no defense. We have trouble too with our cat clawing doorjams. I have found though if we close the doors at night, she doesn't do it as much. She is so spoiled though... I do not even practice what I preach, but if you have a spare bedroom maybe you could put them there while you sleep. Cats also like cardboard to scratch. Good luck. I feel your pain.
Always shut down during a thunder storm - sm
I had a "great surge protector," i.e., an expensive one, that was supposed to protect against a lightening strike. Guess what? Lightening struck my modem anyway! I was down several days while I waited for a new modem to be installed. Not too happy with my protector and will never trust again.
I cannot shut up *LOL* - JUNIOR's restaurant..sm
which is ON Flatbush Avenue when you first get into BKLYN.....it's on the right going towards Prospect Park - it's been there for 50+ years and has some of the best food in NY......Junior's......(remembering all kinds of cheesecake....*lol*).....
That's because your mind is closed shut
like a trap.
Typical arrogance this man accused of us - LOOK, CURIOUS minds want to investigate and TRULY understand different cultures.
Unlike you like sucking down the lies the media and your government are handing you 24/7 WITHOUT bothering to see for yourself.
Never occurred to you his DERISION of us/the questioners may have been in the least justified?
Im not defending him, but I'm also not willing to dismiss or comdemn HIM out of hand, just because the powers that be are doing so and encouring us to follow suit.
NO SHEEP HERE.
buy a very loud outdoor dog that will not shut up???
x
why is everyone so mean on a monday? geez, how would you like to be shut up in a house never to go
i had a dog get attacked and killed about a month ago by another dog in my own fenced back yard. never seen the attacker dog before in my life nor again since the incident. you can't always protect your pets just like you can't always protect your children, but yet you have to give them some freedom. would you lock your children up in the house never to go outdoors because of the violence? i think not. the OP has a valid point and her SIL is being extremely disrespectful and careless with her dogs.
to the OP, i would tell MIL that she is responsible for those dogs while they are in "her care" and to do whatever it takes to keep them off your property. you have the right to protect you home, your property, and your animals. i'd get a bb-gun and shoot them until they learned to stay out of your yard.
those glade candles "gladay" -- shut up!!
Wow! Tha't's gross! I hope she kept her mouth shut?..nm

mexico city had shut off his water supply
http://www.lcsun-news.com/ci_12108854
Change the locks on your doors, nail the windows shut
and fill out a restraining order against him.
Ditto! Agree she can't keep her mouth shut, remember the Kelly Ripa thing?

you can give the people the facts, but the decision making process should be left to the people
This is what our country is founded on FREEDOM OF CHOICE! I'm laughing already; you are just as mortal as the rest of us, and don' even attempt to that you've never done anything in your lifetime that was unsafe or unhealthy. NOT gonna buy it.
it is wonderful to see how many people have such strong opinions about people in debt.
I thought that the purpose of this board was to be able to post without being judged unfairly or have somebody tell you how wonderful their personal life is, and therefore you are causing their life to be less wonderful with your irresponsibility. Well, the saying "walk a mile in my shoes" is a good one in this case. Since you have no personal information about the person you are lambasting because they are looking for information on their debt, you can feel superior. Had you had personal information about them, you might act in a more human manner. Consider fighting cancer for 4 years, working and being debilitated while you do, suffering the effects of chemo, going into debt to maintain your home for your children and looking for a way out of debt SHOULD YOU EVEN LIVE THROUGH THIS!! Thank you for the kind comments. To the judgmental people I say please take a step back before you judge. You do not know who you are talking to and if you knew the personal information maybe your comments would be kinder.
I get frustrated by the double standard they use when judging people. They let certain people go sa
What do you think about the voting process?
People who go around calling other people "low class"
have their own issues in life. Ignore them. Nothing like a misplaced superiority complex to make a person feel good about themselves. Like they've never done anything gauche or made a faux pas. It must be nice for them to be so perfect and live in a glass house.
For that matter, you probably saved your piggy's life by popping that mondo zit! It could have gotten infected or something.... (yes, I have a zit popping fixation myself, but you were really descriptive on that pig zit. gag LOL)
Man, you would have appreciated the time one of my relative's popped a HUGE cyst on her face. I was standing right next to her at the time and leaned back because I knew it was going to blow. It did! Big time! All over the wall, mirror and light fixture. I'm still disgusted by the thought of it 10 years later. LOL In a revering kind of way...
I think that is entirely up to you. I wish I had followed my heart on that one - sm.
When I was pregnant with my first baby, I worked in a hospital and my co-workers kept telling me don't tell anybody until you know for sure nothing is going to happen and until you start to show. Then everyone said to not buy anything for the baby until you are past 6 months. For the record, I NEVER did start to show, my baby was born at 27 weeks. I bought my baby bed on Friday, and he was born on Sunday. He lived 3 weeks and 6 days. Since his death, I went on to have three more children, and I told the whole world as soon as I knew, and we celebrated from day one. So....please follow your heart.
More so than heart, seems to be
the ribs. I am gonna tell them they have to get to the bottom. Just pain medicine alone not doing it.
My heart goes out to you
and your daughter. Reading your post brought tears to my eyes, as right now my first cat I ever had is suffering from cancer. She is getting so skinny and I know it won't be long before we have to put her down. It makes me cry every time I look at her. She had surgery, but the cancer is already back, so there's nothing else to do for her. That has to be the worst thing about having pets, having to say goodbye. Just keep the memories in your heart and know that you gave her a wonderful life.
Thank you, and my heart wants
to bring in another, but the timing isn't right with me in school and expenses tight after all the vet bills. Besides, Sasha seems to enjoy being the center of attention. I'm thankful we still have her.
my heart goes out to you.
What it means (IMO) is at the least that he has a short fuse, no control of his tongue and not much opinion of himself. Its probably hard for him to hold you or anyone one else in high esteem because he thinks so little of himself. There's no doubt more at play too, but this behavior doesn't mean he hates you. I've been in this similar environment. Learn to love and respect yourself enough that those kind of comments don't devastate you. It takes time and effort. A person of this kind needs to change from the inside out. How long have you been married? I can't help but wonder if there is anything spiritual that you share with him. You can't change him, so concentrate on what you can change (yourself, your means of coping, how you treat your job, relationship etc). It's hard not to be depressed in these situations. I'm sorry he hasn't learned to appreciate you. Stay safe. There are people who care about you! e/m me if you like.
I am so very sorry, my heart is with you.
Sending all kinds of warm fuzzies to you. So sorry this is happening and you have to go through it. Please do one thing. Look in the phone book when he is around BTW for the local domestic violence hotline. It is an 800 number, it is confidential, and you don't even have to give your name. Tell them these stories. They are open 24/7 just to listen. They will make you feel better. Also, please make sure you are safe. Keep a cell phone with you at all times, and your important papers and the childrens' all in one place in case you need them. Do not let him know any of this at all. Also if you don't have your own bank account open one just for you and the children. Dont let him know. Also, please have a safe place to go. The hotline will describe all these things to you. They also will suggest a local center you can go just to talk someone, as often as you would like to go for free. He does not have to know that either. I am not saying this so that you should be secretive. I am saying so that it will not trigger his anger and the circle of control. Like I said, stay safe, call that hotline ASAP and listen to them and the outpatient counselor. I have been through it. You need people to love you and make you feel worthwhile again and soon you will have the strength to see why this is happening and how to stop it. Please call them and let us know here you are okay.
My heart goes out to you . .
and your husband. Best to get professional care as soon as possible. Get to the PCP and then a thorough workup and mental assessment. This could be any number of things - stress, a medical condition, a mental condition. Just the other day I read something that was fascinating. I read about a woman who was having trouble with her husband who was 60. His behavior was getting odd, and strange. After much workup he was diagnosed as having Asperger's, this coming after a full functioning life. I found this quite interesting. Get help and keep us posted. You are in my prayers.
My heart goes out to you.
They give such unconditional love, even those moody cats darn it! So sorry about Sixer. :(
My heart goes out to you.
It sure sounds like you are doing the best you can do. This economy right now is the pits, and it makes everything so much harder. Have you checked to see if any medical insurance is available through your state? Here in my state, Washington, we have an insurance program that you can qualify for if you meet income guidelines. I would sure check into that. If you don't keep your health, then you will have a much worse situation than you have now.
My heart really goes out to you...
When my 2nd son was in school, he was misdiagnosed with a learning disability and placed in an inappropriate classroom. I know what you are going through there.
Do you live in the South? The reason I ask is because my kids were all born and raised until early teens in New England. They had wonderful schools and understood ADD (which is what my son has). He was not put into a special classroom, he was just taken out occasionally for extra help. Nobody he was in class with knew where he went or what his "diagnosis" was.
Then my husband was transferred to Florida and what a HUGE difference in schools! The people in Florida, just wanted to label my son and put him in exclusive "special ed" classes only! There is nothing wrong with my son other than he has short term memory problems. But this school system created more problems for him than you can imagine! He was devastated and has really never been the same since that horrible experience.
My 3rd son has ADHD and when we moved to Texas a few years later, he had an even WORSE experience. Not only did they label him, but the teachers openly taunted him in class. He got "written up" for typical childish behavior, nothing out of the ordinary, they just stayed on his back constantly. They treated him like he was retarded.
I wish they could see him now - he is ready to graduate in May at the top of his class. He has completed 4 years of the Air Force junior ROTC and has already been accepted into a very difficult school to get into. I would just love to go back and show them how he turned out - in spite of their labels.
I don't think your school district can prohibit you from accompanying your child to school if you want to. I don't think that's legal, but I would check into it.
Good luck to you and if you just need someone to talk to who has been through the same things, feel free to e-mail me.
My heart goes out to you
I cannot imagine surviving through what you just described. Joel was very lucky to have such loving parents who obviously did everything within their power for him.
~Blessed Be~
home is where your heart is
Home has always been Texas but almost seven years ago I married a wonderful man and my children and I moved away to the Northwest to make a "home" with him. I went home as often as I could to see my ailing grandmother who raised me. As much as I tried I just could never seen to feel at home here but life as it is my beloved grandmother passed away and Texas no longer was the home I longed for I was happy here with my family and this last year I gave birth to a beautiful little boy and ever since I have felt this inexplicable need to take him home, home to my grandmothers house (someone elses home now) and to feed the ducks in the park like she did so many times with me growing up. So this year I am taking my baby ??home?? to plant roses at my grandmothers grave like I did so many times in her yard and bring home some roses from her yard my mother was kind enough to save for me when they sold her home. So that I can plant them in my yard and create a special place to sit with my little one and tell him stories of my childhood and of the special angel he has to watch over him as he grows up. So where is home???? Home for me has always been in my grandmothers embrace and I thank god each day that I was so blessed to know such love and pray that he will guide me in being the same kind of mother to my children and hopefully they feel (or will feel) about me the way I do about her. So this CHRISTMAS tell those dear to you how much you love them. Merry Christmas
I know deep down in my heart that this is wha I WANT to do. But, I'm not sure sm
how difficult it would be to get back into MTing/QAing after a year or so. It took me a long time to get the job I have now (QAing/MTing).
Thanks for your input! Will keep everyone posted. I hate doing QA right now and typing!......ha
Your heart is in the right spot
trying to see after them. I myself carry around food in case I see animals out that I think might need a meal or if a friendly one comes into my yard, I bring out the food still. I would definitely be the same as you trying to fend for them.
Bless your heart
Bless your heart...Fox looks like such a sweetie. I think the memory garden would be a wonderful idea. Cat
Aww, bless your heart! I still
love what I do, but have only been doing it for 3 years. I feel totally blessed that I actually got to quit work when my kids were 2 and 3, go to school online and actually get to work from home so I can be where they need me when they need me. I can see why what else you're doing right now, though, is so much better than MTing! Have you ever been to Women of Faith?
What about just giving from the heart?
Why put such a price tag on something so trivial? Jesus is the reason for the season!
trust your heart
Trust yourself and trust in God, as well as your doctors. They would not want anything bad to happen to your baby. By the way, if you ever have a chance to go see the Body World 3 exhibit you would love the embryo/fetus exhibit. It is absolutely amazing what a 4wk embryo looks like and how he/she develops by 16 weeks into an absolutely perfectly formed baby. I wish you the best of luck. Please keep us updated on your progress.
My heart goes out to you Hayseed - sm
I know you loved him, and I am sure he loved you too. I am thankful your paths crossed before his journey over Rainbow Bridge. I know without a doubt in my mind that you made a difference in his life. My thoughts and prayers are with all of Buck's "family" who have heavy hearts tonight.
Bless your heart.

Head or Heart
I followed my head, wish I would have followed my heart.
This breaks my heart and they have others
Gosh, if I could adopt all these I see- they are so pitiful. Watching the Animal Channel I see all the time. I know they want them adopted but I wonder if they know how much they are tugging at people's heart strings? I do for animals as much as I can and want to send some money their way.
the way to a man's heart is through his stomach..sm
You win! All he'd have gotten here was liver and onions with brown gravy over wild rice and an steamed asparagus side.
Glad to hear he's clearing the way and checking out the lay of the land/waters before his wife gets here. Sounds like a nice young man.
Go back down to landslide and try to type it into your browser...perhaps that'll work.
Say Hi to Slim, Randy, Ann and Cam for me. Cat
Anyone know anything about heart attacks?
A friend recently broke a date with me without letting me know and is saying his father had a heart attack on Saturday and almost died. Said he had a panic attack and couldn't let me know what was going on. He has never been close to his dad at all and hasn't seen him in several years. Was happy as a clam the next day after having a panic attack the day before. Now today, Monday, a day and a half later, says his dad is out of the hospital and back at home and did not have anything done, no angioplasty, no stents, nothing. Is this possible?
you certainly have a miserable heart
So, everyone else is supposed to give your candidate a break, but you feel free to come on here and bash a woman, Hillary, who chose to stay with her husband even after he told a great big lie. As far as the philandering, give me a break - if every woman left her husband for that, there might be 12 marriages left intact.
I don't like Obama - he swaggers, he obviously thinks he is the Second Coming by his body language and his speech patterns. He has very little experience in anything of importance, whereas Hillary was doing voluteer work in grade school and never stopped. She worked without charge to help defend blacks unfairly charged with crimes when she was still in law school. She was with Marian Edelman (think that's the name) who started the Children's Defense Fund at the beginning, has never made money at that time and donated all her time, legal talent and paid her own airfares, hotels and meals to go to the D.C. for the board meetings when she was First Lady of Arkansas.
Obama on the other hand has had his fair share of shady dealings with property in Chicago. I'm from Illinois and I can tell you that no one gets anywhere in Chicago politics without getting dirty. Obama voted present 114 times in the Illinois legislature - ridiculous. The man has no backbone and no conscience.
You call Hillary power hungry - she has earned the right to be the presidential candidate. She didn't ask for it just because of her physical characteristics.
If Obama is elected, it will be a very, very tragic day for this country.
She is a heart-melter, that's for sure!
I hope we get to see updates in her new home.
Heart Attack!
Let's say it's 6.15pm and you're driving home (alone of course) after an unusually hard day on the job.
You're really tired, and frustrated……
YOU ARE REALLY STRESSED AND UPSET ….
Suddenly you start experiencing severe pain in your chest that starts to radiate out into your arm and up into your jaw.
You are only five miles from the hospital nearest your home.
Unfortunately you don't know if you'll be able to make it that far
WHAT TO DO??
YOU HAVE BEEN TRAINED IN CPR, BUT THE GUY THAT CONDUCTED THE COURSE DID NOT TELL YOU HOW TO PERFORM IT ON YOURSELF !!!
HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE?
SINCE MANY PEOPLE ARE ALONE WHEN THEY SUFFER A HEART ATTACK, WITHOUT HELP, THE PERSON WHOSE HEART IS BEATING IMPROPERLY AND WHO BEGINS TO FEEL FAINT, HAS ONLY ABOUT 10 SECONDS LEFT BEFORE LOSING CONSCIOUS
WHAT TO DO??
ANSWER:
DO NOT PANIC, BUT START COUGHING REPEATEDLY AND VERY VIGOROUSLY.
A DEEP BREATH SHOULD BE TAKEN BEFORE EACH COUGH, THE COUGH MUST BE DEEP AND PROLONGED, AS WHEN PRODUCING SPUTUM FROM DEEP INSIDE THE CHEST.
A BREATH AND A COUGH MUST BE REPEATED ABOUT EVERY TWO SECONDS WITHOUT LET-UP UNTIL HELP ARRIVES, OR UNTIL THE HEART IS FELT TO BE BEATING NORMALLY AGAIN.
DEEP BREATHS GET OXYGEN INTO THE LUNGS AND COUGHING MOVEMENTS SQUEEZE THE HEART AND KEEP THE BLOOD CIRCULATING. THE SQUEEZING PRESSURE ON THE HEART ALSO HELPS IT REGAIN NORMAL RHYTHM. IN THIS WAY, HEART ATTACK VICTIMS CAN GET TO A HOSPITAL
ARTICLE PUBLISHED ON N.º 240 OF JOURNAL OF GENERAL HOSPITAL ROCHESTER
TELL AS MANY OTHER PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE ABOUT THIS.
IT COULD SAVE THEIR LIVES !!! DON'T EVER THINK THAT YOU ARE NOT PRONE TO HEART ATTACK AS YOUR AGE IS LESS THAN 25 OR 30. NOWADAYS DUE TO THE CHANGE IN THE
LIFE STYLE, HEARTATTACK IS FOUND AMONG PEOPLE OF ALL AGE GROUPS.
Do what your heart tells you
Just my opinion, but I think you should do what your heart tells you. Sounds lame and cliche, but I think you know what I mean. If you're not happy, then you should seek happiness. I'm not one to say "DIVORCE!" but perhaps some time apart may rekindle what you both once felt. Absence makes the heart grow fonder OR out of sight, out of mind, right? You'll know which one it is once you try it. Staying for your children is not always the best thing, especially if they can see you're both not happy. They should see what a good marriage is like: loving, sharing, giving and NOT demeaning. I don't dare judge you, and I pray you find what your heart desires.
My heart goes out to ya'll down there - sm
We were stationed in Biloxi, MS, for several years, then moved up here to AL in 1999. We go back to Biloxi every 2 months to see my hairdresser, to eat, enjoy the beach, look around, you name it. We still feel very connected to the coast and its people. I cannot tell you how devastated we were by the destruction done by Katrina. We went through a cat 2 hurricane in 1998, which was bad enough to be without power for a week with 4 cats in a stuffy house, much less what you all endured after Katrina. Please, please, please make a plan to get to safety NOW while there is still time, just in case. My heart is in my throat every time a hurricane enters the Gulf now. Best wishes for your safety and that of your pets.
