wootsie73 0 Posted July 22, 2009 WOW Tina, I've read through this entire thread, and I must say you are a very strong woman. It's amazing to read your first posts and compare them to the ones you write now. I know that you went through a horrible time over your ex's affair, and I can't understand anyone questioning you about your actions. I think you have done great just to survive the whole ordeal. What a nightmare! Anyway, I just wanted to let you know I had been reading your story and am glad you have survived it so well. Good luck! Joan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DivaStyleCoach 89 Posted July 22, 2009 Hi Tina, Any news yet? Inquiring (read: nosy) minds want to know... Too funny about Plain...

BethFromVA 5 Posted July 22, 2009 Didn't get the job...neither did my co-worker..she's hiring two people who have never done this work before...gotta love government politics, huh? I hate this place. That's the way it was at my place -- also government. Sorry to hear it, but you're being saved for something much better and greater. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SuzanneG 1 Posted July 22, 2009 Sorry to hear that you didn't get the job. That happened to me too not long ago. I'm also government. Gonna start looking for a job when/if my foot ever heals enough to wear real shoes. Right now I'm stuck in running shoes only. I don't think that would go over well in an interview. ha ha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lmart75 0 Posted July 22, 2009 No one but you can you tell you what you should do. Sorry you are going through this, but stay positive you just lost 106 pounds, thats incredible. No one can take that away from you. Personally I'd kick him to the curb and make him suffer a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
heartfire 4 Posted July 23, 2009 Tina, so sorry you didn't get the job. Isn't that just typical? Hire someone from outside wit hNO experience. Gotta love it! NOT!!! Hang in there and prayers that something better comes along. And Imart, I have NO idea what you're talking about unless all you did was read the initial post. Go back and read the entire thing before posting. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mumof2boys 71 Posted August 5, 2009 Hi everyone...just wanted to check in and give you guys an update. I HAVE NEVER BEEN HAPPIER!!!! I went on vacation last week with my boys. We went to North Carolina and stayed with some relatives. We had a wonderful time...they are on vacation this week with their dad so I'm home by myself. So...while I was out of town, my ex was at a bar with a chick. My friends happened to be there and saw him...they snapped pics with their cell phone and sent it to me. I laughed...I am sooooo much hotter than her and I was just loving it (I have never said that about myself...lol). The funniest part of it...they were at the bar where my new "friend" does security (he's a bouncer there). So...my "friend" tells me the following week that he's there again...too funny. I told him...you should kick him out...tell him no a-holes allowed. He said, are you kidding...I want to go thank him for being such an idiot...I wouldn't have you in my life if he wasn't such a loser. I cannot begin to tell you guys just how wonderful this man is...he was married for 13 years and has two children. He's only one year younger than me (there goes my cougar status). He has custody of his children...his wife cheated on him for the last 2 years of their marriage and she left him for her boyfriend. WOW...how much more could we have in common, right? Well...guess what...he's coming to my house tonight and I'm making him dinner. I haven't had a "date" in 14 years. I'm all giddy...Oh...did I mention that he's smokin' hot???? Well...that's the latest on me...I'm on cloud nine right now and loving every single minute of it. I'm enjoying every little aspect of it. I will continue to keep you guys posted on how I'm doing...without you guys I probably would have been nuts by now. Oh...that reminds me...went to my shrink yesterday and told him that I stopped taking my meds about a month ago and I think I'm doing fine...he agreed and I don't have to go back to him...so...turns out I'm not crazy after all... Thanks you guys...you all rock! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
