As you can imagine I can't get enough of adorable and stubbly dogs :)<br /><br />@Crystal - I couldn't believe it when they were happening either, I kept thinking that there really shouldn't be ANY bad feelings coming my way but I'm really, really relieved that the worst of them are over for now and I have a better way to deal with them next time!<br /><br />@Kimberly - I think it's an odd and very precarious situation. I think we do take more responsibility for each others' happiness than most people do and maybe more than is healthy. But for awhile now we've been working on things like having more friends that we hang out with separately and having our own stuff, and just trying to be more well rounded people. It's tough at times!!<br /><br />@Christina - believe me I've come so far I don't find there to be an inappropriate time to be excited about how much I've lost ;) and that article was great. It's exactly like that. Through self improvement I've lost more than one friend who just felt left behind and bitter, and when I was younger I just didn't have the words to reassure them so I left them behind. It's just tougher this time going through these issues with someone you would never leave behind. But I'm so sad for those people she talked about whose problems had gotten to the point of separation. It makes me so thankful that I am aware of what is happening now, so that I can stop it before it gets anywhere near happening with us!!KyokoCakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06291866202312903020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686004642769751174.post-38688808968816052192010-08-23T00:06:51.139-07:002010-08-23T00:06:51.139-07:00First - congratulations on your weight loss.

I haven't been keeping up with your blog and I'm new here so I don't know the entire dynamic of your situation or relationship, but this post brought to mind an article I read that was written by Chalene Johnson. If you're unfamiliar with her, she's the creator of some of those popular Beachbody videos they advertise on television among other things. Anyway, I think this article may really hit home for you and maybe put some things into perspective. Good luck to you. <br /><br />http://www.turbokick.com/wblog/?p=152Charlotte's Cafehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14784188107191672674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686004642769751174.post-89810288608378303462010-08-22T12:09:57.660-07:002010-08-22T12:09:57.660-07:00I think that you are not only brave, but you have ...I think that you are not only brave, but you have a very good sense of being insightful of yourself, your feelings and for those around you. Your husband's happiness is important to you, but you are not responsible for. Just the same with your happiness. You create it for yourself, not giving that responsibility to anyone else. It's a hard lesson to learn but shows a sense of maturity and depth of oneself like nothing else.Libby's Pink Vanityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12373027910619247431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686004642769751174.post-15753086185215101242010-08-22T10:41:53.349-07:002010-08-22T10:41:53.349-07:00That was really powerful and touching ot read.

It also makes me realize that some of the things I feel aren't as strange to feel as I might have thought they were.ThingsTreasuredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08816942927568036789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686004642769751174.post-2623964734880160672010-08-22T09:46:26.739-07:002010-08-22T09:46:26.739-07:00Holy SMOKES this post hit so many notes for me!!!
