StaceyinLA Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 I just want to say that, for the first time in a while, I feel really good about the way things are. Just this week I seemed to get some perspective and it has really helped. Dh and I have talked a lot about our issues and I really have a newfound respect and love for him - MUCH relief there! 18yo dd who had the bf with no place to stay (and wanted to marry him asap) is working 2 jobs, has taken her entrance exam for her cosmetology school, and has detached somewhat from the bf (who is now back home with his mother and seemingly doing a bit better). 16yodd who was pg and lost the baby is working through her feelings and has talked to me a lot about it. She is concentrating on school so that she can go on to nursing school. Oldest dd wasn't really giving me any grief. Ds wasn't either!! :001_smile: Stepson and his gf and baby are still living with us, but she has been spending a couple nights/week with her mom and it seems to be helping everyone's attitude. She is doing MUCH better as a parent to my grandson as well. Things are A LOT better on that front. I'm tired and worn out, but life is looking up!! I just wanted to post since I am usually only posting to whine and complain. Thanks so much to all who have prayed. I'm not saying you have to stop!! :tongue_smilie: I'm just letting you know it seems to be working! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kathleen in VA Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Stacey, I haven't offered much, if any, advice because I haven't felt I had anything sage to say. But I have been reading your posts and have been praying for you. I think of you very often all through the day - odd times here and there - and I just wanted you to know your post brought tears to my eyes. I'm so happy to hear how things are working out and that your life is on a more even keel. God is good! :grouphug::grouphug::grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
