Hi Family! I know I've been mia for a while. Life is just so busy! Weight loss is basically stalled in the mid 180's...which is fine with me. I know it will happen. Work is finally going better. We have a new supervisor and its actually a nice place to work now! And my new love with my best friend Lamar???? FANTASTIC! I've never ever felt love like this in my life! Its simply amazing. I can't even describe what it feels like. I wake up every day wondering if I've been dreaming the past month! Things are moving quite fast, but when you know, well you just know! He gets along great with my son...and my son thinks he hung the moon. My entire family just love him to pieces! The dog thinks he's the cats meow and speaking of the cat.....she hates everyone, except my son, myself and yep you guessed it...Lamar! The first time he came over she jumped right up on his lap purring! She's never ever done that with anyone except my son & me! He is so different than any guy I've ever been with...basically opposite! He said to me one night (yes we're talking marriage already, but not for a year or two) that a girl follows her father, but a woman walks beside her husband. Completely how I feel as well. Being friends first has really allowed us to have a 100% open and honest start at this new phase in our relationship. I am being myself totally for the first time in a relationship...if I wasn't he'd know it! To everyone who has supported me through my crappy 8 yr situation and the two month Rob fling...thank you! This new chapter in my life is just the best ever! I think my 34th year on this planet is already the best of my life!

It sounds like you've a good man there, Tina! EVERYBODY knows that cats are the ULTIMATE character definers. If the cat likes him--well, he's got to be okay! Best wishes!

Hi Tina,I'm usually a day or two behind on reading posts, and feel inspired to let you know I am SO excited for this choice you've made. Your posts are so calm, so clear, and obviously Johnny Nash is singing, "I can see clearly now.", which I truly believe you do! Have a blessed Easter weekend and a bright spring! Hugs galore, Patti
