Good Bye

I'm going to go away for awhile.

Maybe for a long time this time.

I promised myself I wasn't going to post too much personal information here anymore and that I was going to try and keep it positive.

But every time I come here I find myself constantly editing what I want to say and trying very hard not to write depressing things.

So it's probably a good time for a break.

I have to find another place for us to live and my husband has to find a job and I can't write about how all of this is going to affect the adoption because there are some not nice people out there in the Internet and I am not going to make us vulnerable to them.

I cannot thank enough those of you who have left kind, supportive comments here.

They really do mean the world to me.

I'll still be reading you all, and hanging around on Face.book.

I will most likely be back, when I can see things more clearly.

So it's goodbye for now, but not forever.



I heard the song that's playing right now in the movie "Bri.de Wars" that DeAnn and I went to see last night and I fell in love with it.

It's a beautiful song. Although it does make me cry every time I hear it.

It's called "Dream" by Prisc.illa Ahn"






Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. – Philippians 4:6

I hate that you can't feel safe on your own blog. Why not just make it private and then you can say whatever you want? The bloggy world support system is so important-especially when things aren't going as good as they should. I'm sure you could still use the support and then feel "safe" about what you say (trust me when I say going private makes a WORLD of difference-I am so glad I did). And how stupid that anyone would report back to your agency what is going on in your life. First of all-get a life and mind your own business! And second-what do they care? It's not like getting you kicked out of line gets them a baby any faster. And thirdly-the wait for China is YEARS long, who knows what your life will look like down the line-you may win the lottery for all they know. I'm sorry this is so long but that just makes me mad.

I have thought of you often since you posted your news. These are such hard times for so many people and it's scary. I hope your husband is able to find a job very soon and I also hope it has health insurance for you! Good luck-glad you aren't leave FB too:)

Hugs Michelle! I totally don't blame you for wanting to limit what info you put out there. I hope Joe finds something awesome very soon.

See you on FB!

Michelle, your post broke my heart. I will be thinking of you and praying you find the strength to get through this rough time. ((HUGS)) my friend!
Take care & smiles!

I'd like to second what an earlier commenter suggested - go private and allow only those you know have your best interests at heart to be a part of the catharsis you find through your blog.

xo,

Have been behind in visiting blogs lately...just catching up. Am SO sorry to hear of all you've been going through. Including you and Joe in my prayers. Hope things get better very soon. I agree with the gal that said you could take your blog private...it can sometimes be good therapy. That way the wackos can't bother you, as well.

Anyway, take care of yourself. Hope everything works out very soon!

We are praying for you and hope things look up!

Liene said...

Hang in there. You can always pester me on Face.book.

I hope things get better for you quickly. Life doesn't always turn out the way that you want but you make due and in the end it always works out. I'm living proof.

Rosie said...

Oh Michelle,
How could anyone write or say horrible things...what you are going through is very difficult and did you know that your LID is my Dads B'day!! ..see there is a connection.You always were kind to me when I felt poorly last year .
It will work out,it will.
Hugs

I wish we lived closer to each other so we could get together for some serious margarita drinking pity party time. BIG hugs to you.
