I had a gentleman come and listen to me sing. He was told he needed to hear me sing. After the show he offered me a deal with a contract the whole bit I took it to a lawyer to make sure it was legit and when I found out it was I took it to my husband now x and he kept saying what about the children. So I said no. and now he is recording his 5th cd and hardly ever sees the children. GO figure.
Funny how we hang in there, eh? I so believed (and, still do, oddly enough at this point) in the vows, promises made in a marraige...They shouldn't be taken lightly, I don't think. But, sometimes we look and say, "WTF!?" And, can admit we took some part in allowing it. I don't mean, "ohhh, I'm so stupid"... mean like," BOY! That was really stupid!" and learn and grow from it...

A true thing... However, kids are resilient, and will learn after it's all over that you aren't there now, and how to do things thr right way...We aren't perfect. We do make mistakes, admit them, and show the kids that you can change things for good...
can't really name just one, but I guess my second marriage, for staying as long as I did, he wasn't abusive, but was an alcoholic, and I wasted 10 years of my life for nothing. and now I just hope to make up for it with the great guy I have now.
I agree Nene. Still if I could I would change some of what they had to go through. They are all good kids and good people so I feel blessed that they are.
Too true, gutt feelings are there for a reason...I was very young when we got together. Me 17, him 21...
Lene, Don't feel guilt about it now...we beat ourselves up anyway, built-in guilt buttons, hehe. Chin up, sweet. Your okay now, and they are too, right? Once they are true adults, they can make up they're own mind with the important lesson you've taught them...Lessons are never too late.. xxxooo
