Quote NYDrama: Hi Ladies,

Raggs-I am so shaken and don't even know how to begin. Your story has left me in a state that I haven't felt before. I am crying for you, my friend. I am so sorry that you had to endure such horrors. I just wish I could hug you right now! Why do things like this happen? It angers me to no end! I hate that men can be so evil, cruel and heartless. You definitely have proven, without a shadow of a doubt, that you are one very, very strong person. The courage and strength you needed to go thru such a thing and then your ex throwing that crap? Bless you, bless you, bless you! Thank God for your wonderful family, and your loving father. You are a very special woman, and obviously God wanted to keep you here so you can spread your wisdom. Faith and forgiveness are 2 things that many of us question. You have come so far and healing is still going on. Thank you for sharing w/us. It must be a difficult story to tell. How are your kids? I pray God continues to bless all of you and that each day seems brighter and full of hope. May you always be surrounded by beauty.

I need to re-group, but I will come back later.
hugs to all


I agree thats alot to deal with.Im so sorry!no one should have to think about living through that. Im so glade your with us, and we love you.has your ex. ever said that hes sorry?and begged for your forgiveness. he should have been more wanting to kill the person. that even that about hurting you.

alfie men are a different breed all together. they are mostly self centered and always worry what they want. but the funny thing is as mothers we bring them up so what are we doing wrong to make a male so self centered.

Hey ya'll. Raggs words can't desribe how I feel now. (*) Consider that a big hug from me. Some Man can be worse then animals. They have a soul and it can be filled with light or darkness. The man that attacked you was all darkness. I pray to God he is not doing that to anyone else.
Now your ex (AAAARGGHHHHH) That's me pulling my hair. Thank God you have a man now that is very special. You lived through Jobe's live now as he was rewarded in the end so are you. God loves ya girl and so do we. You are a very strong in your faith. It has carried you through many terrible times. It will carry you through what's ahead. God bless and take care my friend. Love auntiep

hi alfie, yes my ex asked me to forgive him 6 years after we divorced. i forgave him already about 3 years before. i knew it would take him time to realzie that what all he did and what all he said was terribly hurtful to me and the kids. he has apologized to them too although i don't think chad has fully forgiven him. chad realizes more and more how much his father abandonded him too. now, if ralph could forgive himself then maybe he would die a peaceful man. i pray that he does because i do not want him to suffer anymore. there is no point to it. he drinks his sorrow away. in my mind it is more important that the OFFENDER forgive themself. then the forgiveness is full circle. remember that and the anger does go away.

auntiep thanks for the hug. yes, terrible experiences will help you get through worse ones. you can hide from the fear all your life but then you would be miserable. i am not saying it was all peaches and cream but everyday i had to decide to live and be productive and not waller in the pity and shame and anger. my only real true fear i have ever had was that i would lose one of my children, husband, or my parents and siblings. i am experiencing this process with my dad now and i thought i never would have the strength to do it. remember me posting about how i knew i wouldn't be able to deal with one of their's death? then suddenly it was in my lap. i could have ran and hid from it but instead i am determined to turn it into a wonderful time for my dad and i. my mother will be able to count on me and rest easier. i will hold up because i have gary and my children and i have yall. it is and will be sad but it will not destroy me. roe's experience when she lost dee helped prepare me some too. i learn from everyone and i hope and pray to god that others learn from me.

MARYANN where are ya gal, off riding in that newly fixed car like it is a convertible and you are chasing james dean around!?!?!?

i took a nice nap and meghan snuck into the cheeto's chips and marshmellows and ate them all. when lisa picked her up i said thank god because i knew that the sugar would be hitting her soon. one of lis's test showed that she had multiple cysts on her one remaining ovary and she will have to have surgery. "she" said the doctor told her she had gangrene but she did not give her any perscriptions and she won't be able to have surgery through the va for about 3 months. i figured lisa wanted some "mothering" by that statement so i did give her alot of attention but it was hard to keep a straight face. she went for a mamogram so i don't know how the obgyn came into play. sometimes she is like a child stumbling to make up a story as she goes but bottom line she needs needs some attention. i don't mind listening to her because they keep me smiling later in the day.

yall all have a great evening. i will be on my own tomorrow. crystal and the kids got to aunt ruby's around 1:30pm so they arrived ok. crystal had an incident with a male steward and she complained to continental and so did another passenger that came up on his own to complain on how he talked to crystal. she now has 2 free roundtrip tickets to fly anwhere in the us. she says she doubts she flies with them anywhere. she just needs to calm down.

talke with yaoll in the morning. love raggs

SO, here I was feeling a little sorry for myself--last weekend CJ would have graduated from HS and Adam the 8th grade)-when I buzzed on to the pals site to check and see how everyone was and I read Raggsies story. OMG I am sitting at my desk with tears streaming down my cheeks. That someone (2 someones actually) could treat another human being so horrifically is beyond my comprehension. And now I know what has made Raggs so strong and wise and compassionate. I am so happy that your dad was there for you and obviously always has been. Go and enjoy the rest of the time you have with him. And Raggs, always know that you are loved by all of us! When I need an extra scoop of strength, I will think of you!

hi sweetie! good to see you post. i know you miss cj and adam so much. my heart breaks for you there. YOU give us strength. all of our "lives stories" are so important to each of us as a group and individually. it just amazes me that we as women can endure so much! yet, we grow stronger and move forward. i always believe that god gave us our tender "mommy" hearts to kinda cushion the impact of dealing with horrible things. sounds strange but it is true. if men had to endure some of the degrading things that women have had to do they would not survive i believe. i never want to lose my tenderness i have in my heart no matter what i am going through. it enables me to forgive and move forward. cjs you have endured so much. i know the "reminders" are so difficult. just embrace the memories and be thankful that you have them. wrap your arms around yourself and give "them" the biggest hug. they will always hug you back. next time you feel sad and lonely picture me, friend, holding your hand, walking forward out of the forest. WE can always make it and walk into the sunshine arm in arm. hugs from me to you sweetie! love, raggsies

Well, there is only one way to respond to all of this and that is with a prayer. Gals, please join me.

Dear Lord, thank You for all Your love and blessings and for always being there for us, throughout all our trials and tribulations. We ask that You forgive us our sinfulness and shortcomings and help us to lead more Christian lives through our words and deeds.
Please bless our Raggs and her family as they try to ease her daddy's journey home to You in Heaven. We pray that You will enfold them in Your loving arms and dry their tears, replacing them with smiles, as they share the wonderful memories of their years with him. We thank You, Lord, for bringing Gary into Raggs' life and for the love and joy they share as husband and wife.

Lord, as I pray each morning and night, please minister to the individual needs of all of my family and friends, wherever they may be, especially those who are sick or in distress, as You will and as You see fit, for their greatest good. In Your Holy name I pray. Amen


To all of you this morning, I know the Kleenex boxes are almost empty but we sure do have clean eyes!

Raggs, God bless you for sharing your story with us. I have so many different emotions going on right now after reading it. It has certainly brought us all closer together than ever. Can you feel our love coming through? Consider yourself at the center of a 'group HUG'. We promise not to squish you.

I got your email yesterday and will answer it as soon as I can today. I've been trying to catch up on things now that I have the car back. I'm getting ready for my little trip this Friday. Can't wait to see my brother and his daughter. He was here a couple of years ago but I haven't seen my niece since they flew home from Holland for my dad's funeral, which was 7 yrs. ago. She's a young woman now. Life happens!

I'll be back later. Time for coffee with my landlord and he's going to find me with red eyes from all this crying this morning. Hope you all have a great day.

Love, M.A.

goodmorning mary ann and gvalie. mary ann what a wonderful prayer, thank you and thank you amen!!!!i hope all of you feel the closeness to each of you and me in return. bless yall. see, we can talk about anything on this site. all our sharing stories are for a reason.now, i feel a great big huge relief. i do have some down days occasiontally, i have Post traumatic stress and i take medicine for that. some days i have flashes alot. but they are fewer and far between. i use to feel very alone when that happened but now i know that yall will be able to understand and help me through those days. i started something new this year kinda like playing a trick on my mind. the attack lasted 1 hour and 20 minutes so i give myself that same amount of time to get out of my funk. (they knew this from the radio alarm clock that broke) i just tell myself that these flashes will last no more than that time period and then i try to keep moving around. i turned that one hour and twenty minutes into a strengthening aide to me. during that time i also do something i really like and i watch the clock. it usually takes the flashes away in about 30 minutes!!! please don't upset yourself and cry maryann. i love you honey.

gval, yes i did see gh. gosh for the first time in over a month! i like johnnie and olivia together. luu luu is so different from oliva and now i see johnny in a new light. a man, not a young kid.i am at a lost on somethings but mostly i seem to know what is ging on. except the rick thing and that women, have no clue there. i don't have time to go back and ck out reruns and updates. i am really enjoying seeing nic's face everywhere. gosh he looks so good in bed with his arms exposed. hmmmmmm.....
i need to get back to packing, i will check in around lunch.

love you pallies!!!!!!!!! raggs

Hi girls!
Well Raggs, looks like you've opened up discussions, emotions and prayers over here that we haven't had in awhile! See how you add so much to this lovely group? Our pains, losses or misfortunes are just as enriching as our joys, triumphs or gains. Sharing all of these just brings us all closer together. I know I reacted w/my raw emotions yesterday, yep, I'm just a normal, sensitive gal!I had to go there to get here. I am in awe of you that you have turned this all around and shown such faith in God especially. I love that you are offering support to other women who may be suffering something similar. It's a wonderful way to give back, and heal in the process. You are such a lovely, compassionate, smart woman, it is a true honor to come to know you and share in your world. God bless!

Cjsmom-I'm thinking of you and wishing you sunshine and hugs. You too are an inspiration for all of us. Just know that we are always here for you, good times and bad, especially bad. God bless!

MA-how I love your prayer! And how much we all needed that! Thank you for giving us the right words, they do bring such great comfort. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Gval-I just read about the fire at the other dealership. Do they know if it was arson? Enjoy your "day of beauty"! I know I always look forward to getting pampered, and honey, you deserve it, big time! Just sit back and relax and don't let a negative thought enter your brain when you are sitting in that chair.

Well, it's still busy around here. Yesterday, \went to my middle sons end of year party at school and brought my monkey who can't sit still, so I'm watching him like a hawk. Came home and my daughter wants to have a friend over to study for finals so I had to run out and shop for dinner cuz I was just going to do leftovers and stuff since I had a big last PTA meeting later that night, but instead, I had to shop! Anyway, got home exhausted and had to do some work for hubby, bathe the boys and do laundry. So, I had no time to come back on last night. Phew!

Today my daughter has her end of year for Girl Scouts and I still need gifts for teachers and bus drivers so I'm out the door once I can get moving! Last day of school is tomorrow! And we are preparing for the 8th gr grad tomorrow so I'll be busy....... I'm dropping off my little guy at moms tonight, so I won't have to run after him tomorrow.
Counting the days for vacation this saturday!!!!!!!

hugs!

(AMEN) Maryann thank you for the prayer. I think it was what we all needed.
I am so tired mt eyes is drooping. I didn't fall to sleep until after 4:30. I don't know why I can't sleep.
Gval we still ain't in the other house. My brother had to replace my front door and bathroom door. It is so hot here they cant work on it much. I had the electricity disconnected over there because the place where it was connected needed to be replaced. Man do I want out of this house it is so hot mom doesn't want the big air conditioner on because she can't stand the noise. It is going over in my house I don't care if my brother does want it. I am putting it in my room. I have to have air. It is a baking 80 degrees in here right now.
This is not a spoiler just a what if.(((GH will be on soon. At the other site some of them are wondering if the hit man Dominic might be Dante. Wouldn't that be cool.))))
Take care, God bless, Love auntiep
