You look fantastic and you ARE fantastic- now go get that dragon!
The cut is gorgeous and I love the color!! Great choice in both. You look just fantastic, Robin!! You go girl!! :D
I find that when I have been hurt it feels better to be angry than sulk. You go girl! Whatever makes you feel better. Alden is an @$$ - - there you go! You have me doing it! LOL! Your hair is just beautiful and so are you. Alden will be very sorry one day and you will be moving ahead with your new life! ;) :cool: You go slay that dragon! ;)Quote:

Now you stop that Pam! I'm not going to be responsible for your bad language ;).
Thanks for all the nice compliments everyone! Hmm, I have the hair done so now if I can just lose some weight and get some new clothes and make myself look gorgeous then I can show that man what he really lost out on. Nawwww, I don't need to do any of that just for him. I already know what he lost out on!
Hey Robin, just remember, his song is right here:

"You're a bad banana with a greasy black peel" LOL ;)
Love your hair! You look wonderful :)

You LOOK absolutely beautiful, really, I am not just saying that. You have some of the prettiest eyes I have ever seen...very striking!! Now I want to go and get my hair done!!
Your hair looks great Robin! You're just as beautiful as ever! :D
The hair looks great Robin! I recently lobbed mine off too. :D I love it short.
You go slay that dragon! :D
Well, I always thought your were beautiful but look at you now girl! You are gorgeous - and I mean that with all my heart. http://67.15.70.205/i/our_smilies/smile.gifIsn't that statement empowering???? It's wonderful to hear to talk like that. Yes, you deserve more than what you've been getting and believe me, it's out there just waiting for you to grasp it.Quote:

Hope you are enjoying a peaceful night's sleep Robin. Here are some end-of-the-week {{{hugs}}} just for you.

xoxoxo
Robin! You look aww...some! A new "do" can do wonders for the psych! And I was already beaten to it..I LOVE your blue eyes! You know what they say.. "the eyes are the beauty of the soul".
And, know what? So, big frickin' deal Alden "beat you to it". You cuzzed him up and down, got it out of your system, it's over, can't turn back time..just fight on, girl!!! STD!!! ( :D )Sounds like you have a great lawyer.
:mad: I have a lousy, stinkin' cold too..1st time in years. Hope you feel better..(Alka Seltzer for colds.. swear by it). Get a good night's sleep..you need the strength to slay!
love the hair!!
I'm glad you are feeling my sweet friend!
((hugs))
Robin, I'm sorry to hear that you're so sick:( but I'm glad that your spirits are up and I hope that you'll get well soon.:) I love your hair and like others have already said I love your gorgeous blue eyes too.:) Please take care. (((HUGS)))
I love Pet Talk! Thank you to each and everyone of my Pet Talk Family. You all have been so super supportive and with your help I know I can overcome all of this.
Like I was telling Anna and my surrogate hubby, Mark :p ;) last night the past 3-4 weeks have been extremely difficult and scary. I have struggled a lot in the past year but the past few weeks have been the worst and I don't even really know who the person I had become was. I never ever want to go back to that dark place again. With a lot of professional help and the support and love of my son, parents, my best friend Anna and her husband Mark, my wonderful friend Norma and my soon to be ex sister-in-law, Linda (she will always be my sister) and from you,my wonderful Pet Talk Family and Friends I feel as if I am finally seeing some light and recognize how truly lucky and blessed I am to have so many wonderful and caring people in my life, real and cyber ;). I have received so many wonderful cards and gifts from so many of you and I can't thank you enough!
Recently I received a wonderful huge photo from Anna that I am going to have framed and hung on the wall. It is a group snapshot of my wonderful friends from PT and in real life from when we were last together at Anna's house. I love ya, Anna! Thank you so much for the great reminder that I have FRIENDS.
A few days ago I received a super nice gift card to Complete Petmart (which is the only place that I am able to buy picky Katie's food) from Phred, Staci, Tonya, Gini and Amy & Ralph. The same day the gift card came I received a coupon from the same store for the Eagle Pack food that I buy. So with the gift card and coupon I will be able to buy a month's supply of food or more for my girls!! OMG..you have no idea how much that means to me and my girls! Thank you all so much!!!!
Thank you for starting this thread for me Phred. Thank you to everyone who has posted with all of your caring words. You have caused me many LES moments, smiles and giggles. I read it every day and sometimes more than once so I can remember that there are lots of wonderful freinds who care about me and that I have a lot to look forward to in my future and new life. LIKE meeting all of you ;)!
Sorry if I sound emotional and corny but I just had to let you know how much you all mean to me.
Many thanks and lots of love and hugs coming to each and everyone of you!

One more thing! While I was in the hospital a social worker talked to me and recommended me for some kind of program for crazy displaced housewives like myself. I can't remember what the program is called. I think it is a state run program. I have my orientation on the 28th and I think I take some kind of classes and they also help find work for you. My therapist says it is a very good program. That gives me a week to still recover and make sure that I have my head on straight ;) and then I can get serious about finding a job! I'm looking forward to that new adventure and I might even take some kind of classes at our local vocational school. I just can't decide what I want to be when I grow up :p ;)
AND yes, I'm up early. I woke up coughing again. I'm so tired of this stupid cold or whatever it is but I'm not going to let it get me down!
Love ya all!
Spoken like a true dragon slayer!!!!
So happy to read the determination and positivity in your last two posts - the only way is up!!
Robin, not only your hair looks good but there is something in your eyes that tells you CAN slay dragons ;)
I enjoyed reading your last two posts. I saw all of your posts in dog general that were made in the early hours of the morning and I was concerned. I am sorry that your cold had you up early, but I am glad to hear that is was "only" your cold and not anything else. I am so happy to hear that you are looking forward to your new adventure, we will all enjoy going on that adventure with you (don't forget we will be along with you wherever you go).
Robin I have LES reading through your last two posts. We knew you could overcome this and now I can tell that you know it too! :) I'm sure there will still be some cr@p ahead to deal with as the divorce proceedings continue but we will all be here with you to listen to your venting, should you feel like venting, and encourage you along the way! I know that some day you will look back on all of this and think of it as the period of time when you saw an open door and walked right through it to a brand new life. ((((Hugs)))) to you girl! You are an inspiration to so many of us.Quote:

So nice to see such positive posts from you! Hope you have a good day,a nd that your cold is better soon!
Does this mean the Dragon is officially slain? :D
It really sounds like it and I truly hope so!! :)
Sorry that cough has you up again, maybe try sleeping in your chair. I know I slept in my chair for many nights because every time I'd lay down I'd start coughing :rolleyes:
I hope you got to sleep some more.
I LOVE your hair, it looks great, you look great and I know it made you feel great!
I love talking to you and hearing you sound so positive. It really makes me happy to know you've had 3 good days in a row:D I know there are many more to come!
I'm also happy you've finally realized that you have SO many friends who care about you.
It's nice to hear your happy about the upcoming program to help you find a job too.
Oh I could just go on and on how happy it makes me to hear you sound so positive about your life!
I'll talk to you later girlie!
Keep staying positive (oh and once again, good going on getting rid of the pictures!)
Another vote for sleeping in the chair. My recliner has saved me many times. Happy Friday to you! Keep up that positive attitude. It makes a big difference on how things affect you.
big hugs on the way!
I'm so encouraged by your post!
:D it just makes me :D
I'm so happy to see you happy!! :D I think both yours and Anna's new haircuts look GREAT! You are are both very beautiful! I hope you get feeling better, Robin!
It's great to see you in better spirits! *HUGS* We love you!
Hey Robin~ I haven't been able to get to my computer, but trust me, you have been in my thoughts and in my Prayers :cool:
Such is the power of PT~ We Love You~
Robin, I feel like you're at the place I got to when I got my confidence game on. It's still with me today. I think Alyssa is right......the Dragon is Slain!! Good for you. It's all gonna be a great life for you from here on out. You have risen above adversity. This will only make you stronger and able to realize that you are number one and no one can take that away from you.
I hope you're feeling better. Propping your head up does help the coughing.
What a wonderful road you're walking on now!! Keep up the good work!! Just don't forget that you are the good person and others in your life are questionable. While you move into a new life of happiness, their misery is yet to come. And......it will come.
{{{{{MORE HUGS}}}}} :)
Hey Robin, where are ya? Hope you're still smiling!! :)
Okay where are ya girl???
I'm here! I'm here! I just talked to my mom and she said I better check in here that you were getting worried,Kay
Sorry I haven't checked in. I've been really busy. All still going well here and I'm still doing my best to keep my spirits up. Too be honest I have to talk myself through it each and every day. There is always some kind of little reminder of my past life and that kind of thing can make a person very sad. Overall I'm doing great!
No, the dragon has not been slain yet. A long way to go with that. In my opinion the dragon will not be slayed until the divorce is over and all is ruled in my favor! I want that evil beast to hurt!
My son just invited me to come to his house to watch the race with him. You guys have no idea how much this means to me and how happy it makes me. :D
Oh I know how much that means to you and I'm so happy for you! :) Please do take some pictures of Stella and Sammi for us! :p ;)
Thanks for checking in and "HI" mom and dad! :D
That is wonderful Robin! Enjoy the race!! :D
I hope you're having a great time Robin! :D
First, your hair looks awesome! When I'm feeling down, getting my hair done, or cut a different way, just something, seems to make me feel a little better... especially when people go out of their way to make you feel like crap. Sometimes it's hard to feel positive, and there are many days you just want to crawl back into bed, but just the fight to not do that can make the day more worthwhile.
Be strong, Robin... we're all here for you, whether it be in person, or in our thoughts and prayers.
Hope the race was good, and that you enjoyed your time with your son!
Big hugs!
Hi Jenn! I just want to shout out a great big Public Thanks to you. THANK YOU!! They yummy box of chocolates and candles is such a great gift. Like everyone else here I can't thank you enough. The chocolatest are so good. Especially those caramels and the fudge. YUMMY! The candles smell so good that you want to eat them too ;). Your gift box made me so happy. Just ask Staci! I was on the phone with her when I received it. I'm glad Staci wasn't here in person than I would have had to share some with her ;) :p . Thank you so much, Jenn.
Also, a huge THANK YOU to Karen,Paul and Miss Hoppy for the lovely handkerchief that was in her family and Karen passed it along to me. I will always treasure it. Thank you so much! It is very pretty!
I did have a good time at my son's. I was thrilled that he invited me. The race turned out not so good and eventually wound up getting cancelled. No worries here though. Spending time with my son, daughter-in-law and grandpups is priceless. Especially when they buy the pizza ;). Here are a few pictures.

My friend Norma, who was here for one of my darkest moments said it was so nice to see ME again. She could tell a difference with me and said it was good to see her friend again. She reminded me to try real hard to stay that way and even told me that there were probably going to be rough times ahead now that the divorce has started but to remember to rely on all my wonderful family and friends.
{{{{HUGS TO YOU ALL}}}}}
Robi,you look amazing! I love the hair style. I thought you said you couldn't make it look as good as your stylist? Wrongo! These pictures are the proof.
I was going to recommend you get yourself a few songs that *pump you up* and play them when you feel yourself slipping. Gloria Gaynor's I Will Survive comes to mind. I kind of like Lucinda Williams' I Changed the Lock on My Front Door too.
I know there will be challenges to come, but I am so encouraged that you are looking toward the future and seeing all the positive things that surround you. You are going to make it! Not only will you survive, but you are going to thrive. Whenever you walk into that court room, hold that beautiful head high.
sorry about the race :( I bet there's a Toledo girl dissappointed as well!!!
But I'm glad you got to spend time with your family.
love the pics!! :)
much love to you always!
Yup Jenn - she wasn't sharing!! ;)
I was so glad when Mark told me you would be spending the evening with Brandon and Ashley:)
Sorry the race was cancelled (we'll be recording it!), but I'm sure you still had a nice night.
The pictures were great and you looked very happy!
YOU GO GIRL:D
