Sometimes I think that this stuff is no big deal until I compare it to the past before recovery. The milestone is that tomorrow is our (current wife and I) 16th wedding anniversary. Put all of our past marriages together and our time together and the length of our marriage out lasts them all. What the hell happened Jerry F??!!! I didn't even intend this marriage, the most I intended was changing how I lived my life within the process of the spiritual recovery of Al-Anon and then including AA. The process included this marriage and today when I turn around and look around I can say WOW!! this has evolved into something beyond my wildest dreams and expectations...no wait not really cause I was told that if I followed this program as suggested and revealed the outcomes in my life would be beyond dreams and expectations...so it's the program...Life does work when you work the program. Without the program...This post and my MIP family wouldn't even be a passing thought. I'm polishing my attitude of gratitude. Mahalo HP...Mahalo Nui.
(((((hugs)))))....by the way no cake...we're doing Mexican...Taco Grande y muchos frioles...Yiiiii!!
Here is some woman to friend, do something for her, just for her. Something that lets her know she is a woman to you. I am talking jewelry, neat natural kind. Write down alll the things ya love about her.

Thankyou to you both for setting a fine example of how is is possible to turn a life around under seemingly impossible circumstances, and showing that there is nothing that can't be bettered, much love to you both now and always. x
Happy Anniversary to Jerry and Mrs. F.! It is so very, very true! Life gets so much better if you work it! Every single day brings more reasons to smile.
I hope you and the Mrs. had wonderful mexican food and your HP lets you skip the heartburn.

I to am amazed at the differance in my own marriage, after loosing my Afather to his Disease, My Marriage was there, but not moving forward at all, i was so wrapped around my 'Goin's On" that My Marriage went to a Back burner, and I didn't Play well with others ;) But since I have found all of you :) this Program, and the my HP I have also found the piece of me that fell in love with my Husband... I am Slowly Learning to except his faults, as well as my own, and tho I do not always have the "Will" I now know that HP will take over when I can not... That is a good/ Great Feeling From Were I started...
This Past Weekend We took (Husband& I) our son to an amusement park for the weekend... I Feel like I have been beating to death..lol.. I have been at speeds of up to 118MPh... and done loop de Loops all for the sake of my son, and tho at times I "almost" resorted back to old ways, I excepted my husbands desere to just sit and Pout, and Me & The boy spend 2 days over testing our Faiths & our Stomachs and had the time of our life... Before This Program, I would have been sitting on his "Pout" chair, right beside him... I'm glad he can now have his day & I can now have mine... I've Come a Long Way Baby... And You Mr. Jerry... Played a big part in the understanding of it all for me :) ....
Again... Happy belated... Kisses from the States :) Love & prayers Dear Friend
