Things do get a bit better everyday!! I lived through that nightmare as well.  Tomorrow will be better than today.  Tell yourself that every morning when you climb out of bed...!

Things get a bit easier everyday and time will help to dull it.

Joe,
 Been through it as well bud. I do know if I hadn't went through those dark times, I wouldn't have had a chance with the awesome wife, two rugrats I have now   :D  . I am a fortunate and blessed man. I know we haven't crossed paths before, but PM me anytime with your #, be glad to chat with you on this trad stuff we love, or anything else for that matter. Hang in bro, them clouds will break before you notice it with the sun burning bright behind it....    :thumbsup:        :campfire:    

My best,
Lanier

Joe, there is nothing like a good hobby or interest to take one's mind off of life's problems.  This is one where you can really immerse yourself in.

Hang in there!
 I ended up raising my two sons from when they were 11 and 12 years old. It was a tough go for 8 years prior to that, but the best thing that ever happened to me personally.
I'm not saying it was easy street after I rec'd custody and raised them.
 Thank God for family and friends. But I'll guarantee you, someone was watching out for the boys and me.
 Best experience of my life. Sometimes bad things happen. Keep your chin up and your heart in the right place, because if you do it right, good things will happen and they will tenfold outwiegh the bad.

Best of luck to you Joe!!  Everything happens for a reason brother.  I'm with a woman now that I should have divorced she's strayed so many times but I'm here to do what's best for my kids and hope and pray that this time she really has changed.  Time and faith can heal almost anything.  :pray:
Chasing my kids and my degree for now but come next fall the critters better look out.  ;)

Joe, having been married twice before I can assure you that even though it may not seem so, the sun will rise in the morning. Believe me, there's always another woman.  Keep your head up and don't give the SOBS who would feed on your pain the satisfaction...
