Checking In
I have looked for your update all day.. I am glad you have a plan and it sounds very workable.
I tend to agree with the others - take someone with you to tell Chuck - the pastor would be my choice.
So sorry to hear that Liz is having trouble. Take care of her and this new little baby. When is she due?
Remember there are a lot of us that support you and your decision - you are doing what is right for you.

I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult.

Glad to hear that you are working on getting yourself in a safe position, but I just want to say that if you are worried about him tracing you, clear out all the cookies, temp files and history in your computer if it is one you are leaving behind and be careful what you say on here because he can pick up information from here easily as anyone can access this site and read about us. Not trying to scare you, but give you useful info. You might even consider reinventing the wheel if you get my drift, as in a new profile. . . Just be mindful if you feel he might come looking for you.
I am praying for your daughter and you for the best possible of all outcomes!
Hugs, Laureen
My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . . It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . . Laureen

Jean, Gentle hugs to you and Liz. We're all stuffed in your pockets to lend any comfort and support that we can. Just mentally take us out of those full little pockets whenever you need a boost. We're right there (and here) for you.
You are doing the right thing. Hopefully Chuck will be able to handle it and get some much needed help for himself too. There is a saying that I used to hear "I don't fall in love; I take hostages." Sure sounds like Chuck's idea of a relationship.
Jean, you are a wonderful, caring person who deserves much more. Thank goodness that you now realize that you are way up there on the scale of life in worthiness! AND you do NOT NEED a man to complete you. We all need to be complete within ourselves before looking for another. I used to think a man was my other HALF; that I wasn't whole without one. No more. I am strong and you are too. Hugs,
Karen C
