I am so glad you choose to stick...Julie & Tiff,<br />I am so glad you choose to stick around even when we neglected on posting our letters. We will be more on top of posting from here on out!<br />Julie, you said you are strong for getting out, but I am afraid I ended up going back after that, I was suckered in with very false promises, and so the saga will continue for a bit longer. I am so looking forward to posting the happy and funny letters as time goes by. One of the things I remember worrying about was loosing health insurance for MJ & I. I did not know there were options out there for single low income mothers. I wish I had been better informed or sought out counsel! I feel like times have changed now and that young women see their options. We didn't have cell phones or computers or ipods etc, so I was not informed on alternative options that might have been available for us. Then too, I was raised with you take care of yourself, and don't ask for help. So even if I had known where to turn, I would have been brain washed not to use any resources. I am strong now. But back then, I am afraid I wasn't. <br />Tiff, I am so glad to hear that your headaches are lifting. I hope you continue to have that success!<br />I can not thank all of you enough for taking the time to send a comment our way. I truly put a constant smile on my face!<br />~GaloshesSommers Breeze Antiqueshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10183201617048149269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4372406549928075825.post-22368172040588238572010-11-11T12:20:30.272-06:002010-11-11T12:20:30.272-06:00I'm so glad you updated.

It's like a wonderful story unfolding on my computer screen!<br /><br />♥tiff<br />fashionintheforest.blogspot.comtiffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02132023573622066406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4372406549928075825.post-49566382750816881322010-11-11T09:42:08.986-06:002010-11-11T09:42:08.986-06:00Great post! You have been missed!
My mom and dad ...Great post! You have been missed! <br />My mom and dad had the same idea to stay in the same place throughout school! I was always a little odd, kind of a square peg I guess. My sister was completely opposite! I never quiet fit in but moving would have been hard on me because I was also painfully shy and didn't like change. I eventually grew out of it and owned my unique quality's and it turned out fine. My hope is that my girls would be able adapt easily if we were to move. I think that they would.<br /><br />You are strong for making the choice to get out of the relationship. I have known several women in similar situation that never really figured it out.<br /><br />By the way, I have not had a migraine in weeks! Thank you so much for your advice! :)julielollarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14727867877875613829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4372406549928075825.post-5586480439605293692010-11-11T00:38:03.215-06:002010-11-11T00:38:03.215-06:00I think you WERE in a learning process...and most ...I think you WERE in a learning process...and most women are taught to try and keep things together.

To this day, I can not answer this, unless it is to say that I had to go through that to get where I am today. But I worry that it was at MaryJanes expense. And the odd twist of it all is that I stayed with him because he was her father. <br />If there is anyone reading along that is in a destructive relationship, get out now! You should not have to try to mother your spouse. They should help you parent your child!<br />It's so clear now.

So, hopefully we are back in the swing of things and will make better habits of continuing on with our story. <br /><br />And as a side note, MaryJanes, I love and adore you. You inspire me so very often. How did you turn out to be so normal? God knows I made the mistake of waiting too many years for your father to grow up, and yet to this date, he never has. I am so sorry that I did not have the insight to walk away from him and stay away. Had I only done so, I certainly would have been a PERFECT mother....:smirk & a hug:<br />Love, Galoshes.Sommers Breeze Antiqueshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10183201617048149269noreply@blogger.com
