Scape–I know. Thanks.

Julie–No worries, okay?

Jennifer–And now that day is done, thankfully.

JoeinVegas–Posh lounge/dive bar. On that particular night, it didn’t really matter how good or bad the wine was.

Kim–Thank you, my friend.

L–I am not at all sure trying out all kinds of bars is a good thing, but I certainly saw two ends of the spectrum.

Annie–Many thanks. It’s just a road one travels in these circumstances, I guess.

Echo–And that was what was so amazing about that sad night.

Lex–Being a bit ahead of me in this, I am hoping it all gets better, preferably soon.

Texas Fan–Hanging in, I promise.

Angie–I appreciate the thoughts. I don’t know that I am all that courageous–in fact, I am not. I just keep at it. Some might call me dense for keeping at it!

taotechuck–xo and thank you.

savannah–actually, right back attcha.

Kris–My goodness. Good luck to you. Very tough times, I am sure. From one who is still spinning about, I will say that I really appreciate the good days when I laugh at something silly, or a friend calls and we have a crazy evening, or the pup and I just hang out in the living room. Those times help keep the sad days in perspective, mostly.

You give me courage, RG. I’m ending an 18 year marriage right this moment – my ten year old daughter and I are moving next weekend to an apt in town while he keeps the house. My 16 year old son has opted to stay with dad.

I’m elated and excited at the prospect of this new life…and I’m terrified, of course, that I won’t be able to do it alone. And today is one of those days I’m just damned sad that everything I did was just never quite enough to put us on the same page so both of us could have peace and be happy *together*.

RG, I don’t wish you any more days as dark and rainy as that one, but your writing is the silver lining and you shared it with all of us. Thank you.

Ya know, after reading what you’ve been through for the past year, I marvel at the way you continue to put yourself out in the public. Most people would crawl into a hole and stay there but not you. Your personal courage is amazing and you deserve applause.

Hang in there RG. Isn’t it amazing how complete strangers can touch both remote ends of the human spectrum from trolling to caring in the same evening. It’s so nice that there are caring ones out there

I’m glad you’re better now. Thanks for sharing though. I was wonder how you were handling it all.

((HUGS))

The unexpected kindness, from someone who doesn’t know you, who just senses you need something and offers to help can take your breath away. May those little moments give you strength, courage, and faith that you are not alone in your journey.

Love your writing!
And I’ve been through “the darkest day” myself. It does get better. But it does take time. Or at least it did for me.
(hugs)
