I just got a portable web surfing device, so now I'm really in trouble.

Don't worry - my husband of 13 years told me he doesn't love me as much anymore and we are getting divorced, and he is leaving me as a single mom to a small child. He told me this on Christmas, after flying To Costa Rica to see him. I have had a great New Years too. See...could be worse.

Well I've already done the divorce thing so I'm a step ahead of you there. Sorry to hear it though. Divorce sucks.

That's awful. I'm sorry to hear that--you seem like a very nice person. Hang in there.

Thanks. This has all been a nightmare. I flew down there after 6 months of him being there and promising he was going to fly back with us and start a new life here, then he dropped the bomb. My mom lives here, but his family was like my family for ten years. I know it's for the best - he was never a supportive husband who could put anyone else before himself. The bright side? Now I'm a single woman - I haven't been single since I was 20. Kind of looking forward to it!

Well, I am glad that you have a support system here.

You never know, his family may decide that you are more their family than he is! I've seen that happen!

Costa I am very sorry to hear that ... You know I actually have my first friends divorcing right now (they were only married for 3 years) and I'm only 23. Suppose I'll have to get used to that!

How is your little one taking it? Lord knows I get how hard it is from that angle!

P.S. Drover -- 10,000 eh? that's pretty sweet
