It is a little game that I play with myself which takes the focus off the future and puts it into the past even though it hasn't happened yet. How's that for confusing? Try to get a glimpse of your future, (after the divorce), and that includes a whole new life for you! Focus on that! Some day you will look back on all of this and there will be no pain, no hurt and no anger because it will all be a distant memory and you will be in such a better place. You WILL get there! ;)
Regarding leaving Tori out, I have a confession to make too. Years ago when my dad was in the hospital my brother and I would ride down weekly to visit him. One day my brother came to pick me up and I forget to let the dogs (two toy poodles) back in. :( Thank God my next door neighbor noticed them and took them into her home that day because it went up to about 90 and there was no water outside and I was gone for hours! Every time I think of that, and it happened decades ago, I cringe!! We are human. Thankfully Tori is no worse for it.
Great post Pam, and I like your little "game." I think I may try that some time when I have a seemingly overwhelming event looming. You may want to give it a try, Robin. More hugs coming your way.
Robin, I made this for you & am sending it as a card, too, but after reading how upset you are, I thought it might be good to post it now here - hang in there, girl!Quote:

Pam, I like the idea of your game also. I will keep this in mind. Joyce, again thank you so much.
Like I told Joyce in a PM this thread has become a part of my therapy. Thank you all so much!!!
Much love coming out to you all!
Robin :)
Robin.... as many have said... hang in there... we are here for you, even if we are zillion miles apart.....((hugs))
I know how you must felt about Tori.... but donīt worry I bet she had a great night camping outside... ;)
and Pat: WOW!! how cute and thoughtful it is.... how did you capture them so good...great job!!
Thanks! Too be honest I doubt that it bothered her too much since one of her favorite things to do is dig a hole in the snow and curl up and sleep :rolleyes: . I'm sure it bothered me far more than it bothered her ;)Quote:

Robin, it's so good to see you being more active here. The improvement in your outlook is showing and that makes us all happy.
I'm sure of that, too. My brother's Husky-mix loves to fall asleep outside when it is snowing. So much so that, in a heavy snowfall, my brother will call Nilla, and see which mound of snow gets up and shakes off!Quote:

Gentle {{{hugs}}} and prayers to you sweetie.
Sorry to hear you have had a rough couple of days Robin. Hope you are still feeling a bit better.
Robin dearest, don't feel bad for bumping this thread. That's what it's here for!! We're here for you. *HUGS*
Sorry you had a down day. I bet Tori felt like it was an adventure being outside on her own. :)
Pat drew a wonderful photo.
