Is this goodbye...........

Do to things beyond my control we may be going offline for good. To top it all off loosing our home is looking likely within the next 30 days. I can not get into the details here of whats going on but none of it is because of our land lord at least not yet. I want to thank everyone on Idig who have offered their support and advice and most importantly friendship. With all that has been going on these last few months words can not express how thankful I am for all of you here. I do not know what we will do as I have not found work yet. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers.We really need a miracle.

I will pray for you and your family.
I'm so sorry.
I for once am at a loss for words...and I hardly know you.
But, I wish I could do something for you.
Come back first chance you get.

Thank you Cheese. It means a great deal. Right now I feel as if my world is caving in around me and I let my family down.

So sorry for your hard times ;-( Stay strong, I know this sounds trite, and probably doesn't help you much, but things always work out for the best...or at the very least, they 'work out'. You do the best you can, and worry about the things you have control over....the rest... you leave to a higher power...whatever that may be. Luck to you and yours.

I would never presume to take away your very personal feelings. But--as a woman a wife and a mother, I can say this--your family does not feel this way.
You are all in this together, and will work it out together.

But I certainly respect your feelings as the breadwinner and head of the family.
You are going to be okay....soon as you get your sea legs again.

I'm praying the way is easy.
Big HUG.

Thank you Betty. Your words are not out of place. It is so hard to think strait right now. I am going to talk to our pastor first chance I get Sunday. Our church has been a good source of support for us. I just hope something good happens quickly.

When the Lord closes a door somehow he opens a window. We are in a VERY tight spot right now too so I can epathsize greatly. My life has taught me all things happen for a reason so try real hard to keep as positive an outlook as you can. You're in my prayers.

Be strong Kevin. I barely know you, but am certain you can persevere. We will be waiting to hear from you when you are able to visit.

I will be praying for you that things turn around soon. Just keep saying that they will and believe that this is just a challenge (just a test) that you must struggle through. It will all come together when it is meant to, you just need to be strong.

I can imagine there will be days when hurt words are thrown around by your family or by you. Remember that these are words of fear and that your family loves you regardless of how afraid they are. And, they know you love them and will keep striving even beyond better days because that sounds like the kind of person you are.

DO NOT GIVE UP!!!!!! Please.

Do not forget either that you have friends here who may not know your face, but know your heart. We are here for you. We are here for you when we are needed.
