100% accurate. Carry on. XX chromosome-being out.

Hugs sweetie!

These are the people I work with..... It all started with a post-it and under-caffeinated engineers....[ATTACH=CONFIG]3880[/ATTACH] and quickly escalated from there (close-ups) [ATTACH=CONFIG]3881[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]3882[/ATTACH] and ended with Bear Grylls (as it should) [ATTACH=CONFIG]3883[/ATTACH]

Tara is going to be super pissed. I think Alcide will become pack leader (completely thinking of going to see "Magic Mike" just because he is in it...) The reverend....I had a feeling he was gay, so his approach to Jason was hilarious to me! Oh, and where can I get Jessica's lingerie?!? Anyone else hoping Jesus (Layfayette's BF) comes back somehow...and where did his body disappear to? Oh, and Christpher Meloni is gonna be goooooodddd! Can't wait for Sunday!!

Nice Job! That definitely deserves s

Spaghetti squash is the schmidt! My fave way to eat it (this week) baked and then "ribbon" with bacon pieces, chunks of grilled chicken and sauteed mushrooms and onions or leeks...maybe a smidge of Parmesan if I'm feelin' festive! YUM!

Go here: http://southernmostpointusa.com/, it's in the Keys, southernmost point in continental US. Do a handstand (or something equally impressive) on buoy!

Congrats!

Good call there. NEVER mess with a bride! *shudder*

Georges, thanks for the input/advice. We are doing counseling...both individual and joint. I am starting to withdraw more and more from his life (we are living separately since late April which is helping with perspective for me immensely)...I still love him but our relationship cannot continue without some MAJOR changes in the status quo. I am finally starting to put my needs, wants and desires before his and I think he and I starting to see that my happiness and fulfillment in life do not depend on him. I am willing to be part of his life, but only if he wants me there and only if he respects me. On a side note, I applied for a job this week in Abu Dhabi, UAE, which I am fully qualified for, would potentially triple my income and require at least a 2 year commitment...when he found out he was not pleased. I guess it's finally showing him that I am not going to sit around and wait for him to decide when/if he will grow up.....my life is going to continue moving forward with or without him. These days, I just try to take things one day at a time, put myself as the priority and try to find my own happiness...easier said than done...but I will be stronger, wiser and better at the end of this...regardless of the outcome.

I concur!

Do it! I think you could pull it off! Pics are required too!

Yes to all of this! I haven't read the books yet... definitely on my to-do list! Wonder if I can get them in audio to listen to while I walk/run?

So true. Something that I am currently struggling with myself. Do I stay in my "marriage" because it's the right thing to do? I haven't felt loved, respected, valued or as an equal for quite some time. I continually find myself giving more than I ever receive while I spin my wheels and wait for him to "figure things out" and to be honest, grow up. I took vows and meant them! Plus, there is more than just he and I involved in this (he has 3 sons from his 1st marriage that I have raised since they were 16 months, 2 1/2 and 4 1/2...I am essentially the only mother figure they have ever had). Is this enough for me? Is the potential for love and respect enough or have his past infidelities and hurts damaged this relationship beyond any hope of repair?
