do you believe there will be husbands and wives in heaven together for eternity? Ì have no idea if there will be or not but I'm thinking if there is then being apart on this side of eternity for a little while isn't that long in comparison.

Never agains are very difficult indeed. I found myself saying them again and again, and here I am, playing the game again and hoping against hope it turns out differently this time.

Half marathons aren't so bad. I usually run one a year, and while I'm not fast anymore - I've done them in 1:31 - they are still very doable. You just have to run smart and avoid injury. Listen to your body and gradually increase your mileage and you'll be fine. Marathon? Same thing times two, but it takes a lot of running to get ready for it. Still, it's an experience that's worth the commitment if you have the time. I've done one and probably won't do another - no desire to train that much when there are so many other things I want to do. Just have fun with it. :)

Hey Lobo (David). :) I was thinking about you today--prayed for you and your kids especially right now as they take in the news. I meant to tell you when I first started reading your diary that, from what I read, you seem to be a great dad, even when things are really, really hard. I can't tell you how encouraging that is. I think I mentioned that my parents divorced when I was young. My dad basically was not in my life and I've consequently been pretty jaded about men as dads. But you defy all the stereotypes I've established over the years. It's so encouraging...I can't think of a better word. Thank you.

Depression can take a long time to wear off. Are you going to a counselor at all? Look for a non-profit organization that specializes in counseling. Your church might have an idea of where to find one. I started seeing a counselor before Stephen and I got married. She helped me through the pre-marriage fighting and the post-marriage depression. Just talking through stuff with somebody helps me. I see her less now because I think I've learned enough to know the steps I need to take to get better, and not seeing her every week forces me to take what I've learned and put it into practice. Anyway, counseling helped and helps me a ton, so it's an idea. :) Family counseling might be a good idea too. Divorce and separation can be really hard on kids. My parents divorced when I was 2 years old, so I don't even know what it is to have a dad, but it nonetheless made big marks on my life. One warning: Beware of "psycho-babble." :) Counselors and counsel-ees sometimes get caught up in all the theories and forget to remember that even if your problems have legitimate explanations and reasons and labels, that means you now have something to move AWAY from, not just accept as part of your life. :) Don't know if that makes any sense... Let me know if you'd like more clarification.

Oh--I forgot to say that you can call me whatever you want. I just call you Lobo because it gives me a trigger for remembering where I know you from--i.e. instead of, "David? David who?" I think "Oh! Lobo! Diaryland David." :)

There's so much I want to say, reading your entries. I heard a song on the radio the other day--Mark Schultz's "He Will Carry Me"--and it made me think of you. I think you should listen to it, if you don't know it. It's a healing kind of song, especially when going through so much like you are. The other thing I wanted to say is that you and I are similar in that we are both perfectionists, the ones always wanting to do the right thing. And I've fought with it tooth and nail like you. But lately I've learned that that isn't at all what being a Christian is about. God knows we can't measure up. Which reminds me of another song you should listen to... "Even Then" by Nichole Nordeman. I should mention that music is one of the major ways in which I connect with God. :) I have a whole stash of songs that I listen to again and again when I'm having a rough time. They aren't the answer to everything, but they do turn my eyes to God instead of letting my thoughts rest on just me. I think that's the answer.

Hi Lobo, it's nice to have a new visitor. I've been reading your journal and I admire your honesty and openness with the world. It seems that you have become more interested in God since beginning your journal, but I can't find when that happened. Would you mind sharing your story? I'd love to hear it. My name is Stephanie, by the way, but you can call me sunnyrain or whatever. I like Lobo, so I think I'm going to call you that for the time being. :)

Yeah. Letting life run you down isn't a good thing. You probably need to take whatever time you can for yourself until you get your mojo back. Tired and run down isn't doing anyone any good. Good luck.

ooh, ouch. this is probably, in some unfair way, something you needed to see to get you going in a better direction for yourself.
you are so right about You needing to make the changes and not waiting for them to turn themselves around. it's not an easy thing to grasp, but it certainly gets easier with practice over time.
Hugs to you, Buddy. Now think of something that makes you laugh really hard and tell me what you came up with. ;)

Hey, just got your note and thought I'd stop by. I'm incredibly sorry to hear what's happened. Trust me when I say I know how much this hurts, but in the end there is only one direction left for us to go and that is forward. When life seems at its darkest, sometimes the only thing left to do is give that moment to God and trust in Him. He will not leave you, and He will not let you stay in this darkness. Even when you can't trust yourself, trust Him. I hope everything gets better for you soon, take care.

Well put!!! I love your portrayal of the coalition... "a three headed dog." I think that it is perfectly fitting. I never would of thought that in a country like ours our politicians would stoop to a level so low, and espically in the economic times we are in. I would much rather see an end to this so that Harper can get along with trying to fix and sort out the state of things. I really do hope that the govener general will call an election.

I'm sorry to hear about your friends and their mishap. Must be hard to see someone you care about suffering like this. I believe in the power of prayers. Whether you pray for yourself or for someone else, it really does help find the solution or alleviate the situation. I send good healing thoughts to them.

Listerine is a fantastic remedy for mosquito bites too. I don't like stereotypes, but after living in a multicultural city for so long it's hard not to have them. Some people may think they're offensive but they do exist for a reason. I'm trying not to judge people based on that. I think you're absolutely right about married couples having less and less to say to each other, the more they know each other. The good thing is that they have comfortable silences. It think it's the daily routine that makes couples mute too. They have more to say to each other when they're in a new place, as if they're meeting each other for the first time. "Here's hoping with both run into more people willing to share themselves with us." I'll drink to that! :)

Thanks Dage, time with the kis has been good, and hard.if that makes sense given them not living here anymore..I miss them. I think the best mother's day gift I got was my hug from Jonathan and beign told things will be ok (and he loves me was implied), and the walk we did as a family. Jenny went to church with me this mrongin which was nice (she is stil a server when she is here). Anyways I hope that things turned out well at home there for Mother's day too! I know for the kids it is important to have something happening so they know it can be a special day as a famiy....hugs back :) and thank you....nice to be thought of.... C.

Thanks for the note...yes I know...logically the best thing to do would likely be to walk....emotionally I have to get there as yet. I am still hoping things might work out....reality says otherwise most likely. Guess in the end it doesn't matter much as I still have 101 things to settle in life first before I can really move on in my life...right now that seems a million miles away even though I work on them every day.

Hi there :) Well hope life is treating you well on the west coast of this big country. Have not heard from you for a bit and I have not been writing much but hope to get back to it again. Life is going ok, not perfect, not badly, just kind of survival mode at this point in time. Next week and the week after that will be different I am sure. I have been trying to spend some time with John...that has not done all that well but we did manage yesterday to go grocery shopping, have dinner then I had a long unexpected nap, got up tired out and sat outside for a short while while he talked about the garden plants (boring....) and I went home to bed. Nice garden but I don't know names or have an interest in it, they are pretty flowers to look at as I walk by to get into the house...oh well. Otherwise not much new. Let me know how you are doing? I never did get a snail mail letter from you LOL TC!!!!!!! C.

Thanks for the note...things will be fine given time. I think he and I will be staying friends as I know that he knows what I thought of him, he just wanted someone else who has been in his life for a long time as his life partner so they are going to try to make it work. Not too different then you going back to Liz in some ways though far different people in general. Hope your marriage is going well and making you very happy!!!! Always was my hope in the bottom of my heart that you would finally get the relationship you always wanted :) As for me I think I will be sitting on the sidelines for now taking a break and just being in a few pieces and working on putting me together but I bounce back anyways so I will be ok. Just was a real suprise because as of yesterday morning things were prefect and by last night the whole thing had me in tears...funny how life can be like that without notice. tc and chat again soon.

Hey Sounds like a wonderful discovery!!! Welcome back!!!! One question...where is Cate going on a holiday/trip??? Didn't hear about this as yet????
Scripture for this sunday here is Mary annointing Jesus' feet... last week was the story of the protical's son.... next week is Palm Sunday/Passion Sunday the story of Jesus' journey to Jeruselem riding a colt and the week after is of course Good Friday and Easter....WONDERFUL time to REDISCOVER your church life as it is the highest holiday of the church year and the most significant....no hints intended but I am sure if you take the time you will love it and find it meaningful.

Good for your home in having the clocks all changed. Ours have not been touched as yet and I keep mentally adding an hour. Right now for example the clock says 5:45 pm..but it is 6:45 pm and I AM STARVING..It must be supper time :) Either way I look at it I think, yep time for dinner. The only thing I did not like about the time change is I woke up at 4 am but it was actually now 5 am due to having to add a hour to my thinking..still too darn early and had to start church at 9:15 am this morning...but that means it was actually only 8:15 am ...too darn early to be out trying to function that is for sure!! Though at least I was not late :) Time changes are just very confusing for my simple brain cells. :) Anyways my holidays have now officially started :) HURRAY!!!!! Write me!

My hunch is that you have a calling....and struggle more than most to make sure you are focused elsewhere will on Satan's end hopefully keep your attention elsewhere so that you can't discover what that is meant to be. People who are not searching out the will of God don't struggle the way you are..... more details available but you would need to ask and maybe would prefer to hear it from someone else. Thought this for a while now but will see..... also wondering what set you off for being angry tonight...glad you were able to step away from it some. The night with the kids sounded really, realy nice.

neat song and my guess is that it makes you think of someone ???..... I can guess, but won't here (not me)..... just if it does before I go trying to find it let me know, as i would hate to listen to it, thinking of you thinking of her _______ ...you know it is kind of strange to do that :) Otherwise I would maybe pick a similar cd by the same singer to see what it is like :) so far your music tastes have proved to be interesting to date! Do you have a favourite spot on the web to listen to music??

boy do kids grow, change and yet when they are smaller it seems to go slower. Found pics of my kids at my brother's wedding a few years back....they were short!!!

my baby girl fell a couple of months back, catching her top gums on a concrete curb. red blood on fair skin and blond hair is a scary sight. it was amazing to me how something took over my body and put me into automatic mode, where i couldn't panic, even though i knew i was. apparently, babies heal well...the cut was huge and deep, but they wouldn't stitch it. in only three days, it was barely noticeable. but my heart hurt so badly for her. her strength and innocence had me crying myself to sleep those nights. i hope the boy is well...

i was a complete wreck, and you were good enough to stand up to me and shake me with your words. you called me on my bluff and made me take some good long looks at myself in the mirror. for that, i thank you for your bluntness. for that, i stalked your diary through the years, lol.

Been there as a single parent and it is TOUGH! but hang in there as I know that you are doing a super job and the kids are terrific so life will get better when everyone is back to feeling better. Kids are tough when there are two parents around too when everyone is ill. Just think next week you will have time to recoup and get out a bit which will be a good breath of air for a few hours. The benefit of split parenting is that you do get some time on your own so take it and do something fun!!!! See friends, go out, just relax and have a starbucks (Hey that sounds good I think next week I should take a day off and take my own advice too :) Love ya, C.

Finally found the time to drop in...your notes on your father-in-law Ed made me kind of sad and I could see you walking the golf course that is now closed down. Hopefully it was at least part of good memories and the love that you had for him that took you there that day.
I have caught up on reading your diary now and miss you lots. C.

Hey, hugssss and Happy New Year. Let's hope that 2006 will be the best year in a long time for all of us. I have been thinking about you and Becka lots and wondering what's going on.....looks like you think things have gotten quiet with you two, i hope that isn't the case. I haven't heard from her either and don't remember the password and stuff for her diary, but it looks like she hasn't updated in a long time anyway.

I'm sorry I haven't been here for you and for her either like I should have been. Sometimes life gets so hard and you don't know how to deal and you back away from everyone and everything and try to figure it all out. I know you know what i'm talking about. OMG at what happened with child abuse charges, that totally appalls me! GOD you are a wonderful person and father.

Thank you very much. Yeah, punching toilet paper in the shop, I am so rock and roll! I've just realised that I left a note in your diary saying I'd keep in touch and then haven't.

Dude, where the hell have I been - I so totally can relate to every, everything you said in your last few entries mainly because I've walked the same road or a very similar one - well my ex is just mean and hateful but I know the feelings and the heartbreak and all the old habits that you have to change. All I can say is that it gets better even though it doesn't seem like it will - drop a line if you need to shout out about anything.
