I do hope that everyone had a wonderful Christmas...
I and the family certainly did...
And naturally too much food was on offer but this year i didn`t over indulge...
For those of you who don`t already know things on the home front have taken a turn for the better...
My hubby and I have sorted through some issues and as of Sunday he will be home again...
We know that we still have things to sort through but this time around we are going to be open and honest with each other and naturally deal with the situation straight away instead of stewing and letting things get way out of control...
Life certainly has been wonderful for the two of us this last week...
Taking time out for ourselves for a change ...
Which is something we both should have done some time ago...
You live and learn....
Here we are adults and we still stuff things up...lol..
So now we`re working on a day to day basis and we`re working together...
i`ve had a good heart to heart with the kids and let them know of our intentions and that we want to take time for ourselves once in a while ...
Which means i will want some help from the older two when it comes to hubby and myself wanting to go out on the occasional day or evening when it comes to our youngest...
everyone is willing at this time to do their part so with everyone on board i think we may survive...
Everything is crossed...lol
No not really....
This is what we both want and this was a reality check for the two of us...
The love naturally was still there but neither of us knew it until we were apart...
Hello Mandy,

Thankyou Margaret...
ReplyDeletewishing you and your family a Happy New Year also...
Let`s hope 2008 is a good one!!!
Hi Mandy, all the best ,,
ReplyDeletePS In your 'View Profile', the photo is distorted? this was happening to me. When you are about to 'Save Changes' after uploading an image DONT click the 'Fit to Size Box' and it will return to a normal shape.
Thanks Lynne I was wondering why it did that....
ReplyDeleteHi Mandy. It'sa me 'gain.
ReplyDeleteThat's great news about your reunion.
Marriage is never an easy thing to keep together. Inevitably after the newness wears of, it takes constant work to keep things happy. Marraige certainly cannot survive in a vacuum. Ir's necessary to communicate as you've realised.
Two people living together; even without the strain of raising children; can never be 100% compatible. It's always a case of finding a solution to every incompatability; one that both people can live with.
Sometimes, it seems, that we need to be unhappy and apart for awhile before we truelly see what we should have done. Luckily you and hubby are both sensible people and have a second chance to make it work.
Sorry I haven't been around much lately, but I'm still having personal problems of my own that make me feel like doing nothing most of the time.
All the best to you and yours for the new year.
Terry
Hi Mandy,
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful news that you are both working things out. It's very obvious that you both love each other and are 'soul mates'. I have no doubt that we are put together with our soul mates in order for us to learn from each other. The relationship needs to be with a soul mate because they are the only ones that would put up with the difficulties of going through the learning exercise......hehehehe.
God bless you both and may 2008 be a year filled with health, peace and happiness.
Rudy
great news Mandy..sounds like communication is working well.have a great happy New Year.
