Thanx dpena, for the use of your artwork. I've adopted it and named it quite appropriately (in my judgement)-
"Prowlin'to Tomorrow".

For my new friends on this site, an update on my personal saga follows.

The past 7 months have been very trying. Divorce negotiations, caring for my boys, watching my small biz backslide severly - and becoming more incapacitated daily (emotionally and rationaly)....I have not managed my resonsiblities well. Although, I am a devote optimist and dreamer....I was begining to loose the light.

How one can consider the separation of a marriage/family a blessing is still beyond my comprehension. But I believe I was blessed, once again yesterday. We settled, I signed the biz sale agreement, quitclaimed/refi'd the real estate all in 1 day. The boys are with me. Terms on the biz will cover our fixed costs for a few years. I'll soon be able to seek part time ventures with clarity(to supplement the extras, while the boys have me near full time.)

I guess what I'm saying is; barring unforseen curve balls (with a few more blessings), I will have the luxury to be a Near-Full-Time-Dad while we regroup!And Keep the CAT!

A public thank you to BlueKat and Sharon, your companionship is greatly appreciated. And thanx for the fun/support from you POAers. And thanx to dpena for the timely avatar, "Prowlin'to Tomorrow"!

JoeD..........thank goodness you have reached the light at the end of the tunnel! Without a doubt, family is of the utmost importance and thank God you have your children, as they are the most important. Keep your chin up and work towards making your new life the best you can have. Your children are lucky to have you! It's great to hear that you will also be able to keep your car. Even if you hadn't you'd still be part of the Prowler community and will always find friendship and support here with us!

Divorce is an awful thing to go through...

Woody Allen once said, "Why should I get married? I should just find a woman I can't stand and give her my house!"

Hi Joe, Got your message yesterday when I got home, glad things are getting sorted out finally. Sharon (Dr. Cruz) and I are always happy to lend an ear to your problems. I've been there before, and know what you are going through. I'm glad the boys are with you (the best place), and they will get through this with you. Talk to you soon.
AND . . . Glad you are keeping the Kat. Mine would be lonely without the visits from yours!

Joe - I'm sure it is a relief to get some of those things closed and over with so you can look forward to the future. Hope things go well for you and your boys and maybe we'll have the opportunity to meet at a POA event.

JoeD,
Allthough It may not seem like it right now, there is life after divorce. Mine was 6 1/2 years ago. It took me 2 years to even date again. It changed me for good in some areas.The best thing I learned out of mine was the unconditional love My Daughter provides both me and her mom with. Cherrish EVERY moment with your children! Make memories that will last a lifetime......and remember, Happy children grow up to be HAPPY ADULTS!!! God Bless and comfort you with wisdom and knowledge.

Joe, hang in there. The worst is over, for sure. It could be a lot worse, it could be a serious sickness or even death. You cannot recover from that. Divorce is only temporary and you still have your friends and most importantly, your kids. Just remember how much fun it is to ride in the cat. Everytime you take a ride in it, rejoice in being free.

JoeD,

Glad my drawing could cheer you up a little. I too hate the curves life brings me.

Sometimes I wish I could be 2 years old again ....

Yes... that is me back in the 1970's ....

I hope I never have to deal with divorce ...


Later...

Joe when I got divorced (approx 20 years ago) after 15 years of marriage I was devistated. I even had to go to professional counseling at the time. Now It is one of the best thing that ever happened to me. Now I am very happily married to the most wonderful woman, who is not only my wife but also my soul mate and best friend. I did not know what happily married meant until I married Linda. One day you will likely look back on this and be glad it happened.

Joe,
Good luck with the new life. I too am divorced and don't even like using that term. Makes me feel like I failed at it. It's not the case. Just married the wrong woman. I will find my true love one day, or I will die searching for her. Chin up and enjoy being with your children. PROWL ON!
