Hi Jean, 
 
I am glad to know you are feeling better.  I hope that time will take 
away the pain and leave you with fond memories.  I too am trying to 
heal from my second marriage still--My ex-husband called me a couple of 
weeks ago to tell me he was moving to Idaho(thought I was over the pain 
But for some reason it hurt to know he was moving away) The good thing 
though was he appologized for causing me so much pain(We were only 
suppose to separate for a little while this was July of 1994-2 weeks 
later he was with a 16 year old girl and he is now realizing that was a 
mistake and so he appologized)---But my life is going on But this time 
I really want to do it right and make my dreams come true.  I want to 
get my certification for Scuba Instructing, I want to get my Vet Tech 
licensing and I don't want a certificate I want an AS degree and then 
go on to a University for my DVM.  I want to travel and although I feel 
like I missed having a family at this point since I am 33 and both my 
mother and sister had their families by this point I feel like it gives 
me the freedom to do what I want to do now.

Yes, I know I am the Baby of the family no matter what, my sister is 5 
years older and my brother is 9 years older and they still call me, 
"Babe".

Thankyou, I feel like I've tried to make other people happy and did not 
make myself happy most of my life so that is exactly what I feel, I 
feel like being selfish for once.  Thanks again and take care of your 
self.
