Good people, I am in the middle of a few crises. And yes, I am looking for some kind words of encouragement! Said crises are too lengthy to mention. Anyone else with the trials of life happening, be assured you aren't alone. God bless you hounds. As good Pete says, keep 'em rollin' Peace be with you, Mike/BAZ PS I just want to polish rocks dammit!

Just know whatever happens in your life happens for a reason. You will not be given any more than you can handle. There is a purpose for you in this life, even when you can not see it at the time. Things always have a way of working out for the best. Everyone deserves to be treated in the same manner they would like to be treated. If you haven't found that person yet, it is because the time isn't right for you. You will meet that special person for you when you least expect it. Maybe, you already have and just don't know it yet. You will know the love you deserve. Always believe in yourself! You have a lot to give and it will all come back to you in time, when the time is right! You are all very special people...

Hope you're doing ok Baz - seems like when it rains it pours when it comes to crisis in life. We'll be thinking of you, sending a little positive energy your way. You too cpdad - was hoping things were settling down for you but sounds like maybe not. One day at a time I guess. Sometimes one minute...

BAZ-
Whatever it is, as long as you still have your dogs you'll be OK. At least, this has been my experience.
Wishing you well, :)Susan

Thanks gang for the kind words, they REALLY mean a lot to me. Today is looking better. My hair is a little grayer. My rocks are getting antsy. To take my mind off of things I have been working on cleaning up my shop and started up the flat lap. And Susan, dogs are incredible. I woke up a 2:00 this morning and couldn't go back to sleep. Neither could our dogs. They sensed trouble and were pacing around the room. Our Lab even went in the bathroom and stuck her head behind the door, which was odd to say the least. So we put her at ease by letting her 85 pound butt up on the bed!
Great words Debs, me and Christi try to live our life with ideas like that in mind. Fossilman and Kev, hang in there bros.
In closing, you can only help someone for so long until you realize they don't want to be helped at all. I guess we can't beat ourselves up over it, we tried and tried. There is a point though when you have to let go after exhausting yourselves and your resources, and just say, "I can't help you anymore." How can you help a deafeatist who only sees defeat? Even after 3 months of gut wrenching assistance.
Wish I could open up more to all that has been going on but I think I would crash RTH!
Peace.

Hang in there; the sun will rise in the morning and rocks never spoil . Take it one decision at a time and one day at a time. Remember the things you have control over and the things you don't. I'll say a prayer for you.

A man came to my door and said "I'm out of gas" I gave him a can full of gas and walked him to his car, he refused to pour it in. I went home. He knocked again and said "I'm out of gas", so I pointed at the can full of gas. He picked it up and walked off. He knocked again later and said "I'm out of gas and my car won't start." He was holding my full can of gas. Again I walked him to his car, opened the car fill flap and said pour it in, but he refused. I went home, he knocked again. I started to open the door and thought, at this point who is more unbalanced! Me or the man? john

Mike, My thoughts and prayers are with you. Please remember, that sometime you have to let go or go down with the problems. Feel no guilt when you let go. You know in your heart you did everything you could do and not drowned. SilverLass
