Yes, I am on FB....Brenda Martin...same pic as my avatar here. Please "friend" me if you are on there.
What's new....well, my divorce should be final any day. I have been reluctant to post about it here because other folks who have posted about marital problems have not received a lot of support. We did counseling, and frankly, that just affirmed that he is not interested in being married anymore. It has been a fairly amicable split, and the kids are adjusting far better than I could have hoped. The kids are growing by leaps and bounds. They are such a joy! Good to hear from you guys!

Hey there--you know I'm always happy to say hi!
Those kids of yours manage to get cuter every time you post a new pic. Good to see you over here, too.

Hey Brenda,
I already friended you on FB but just want to say that I am glad the kids are all adjusting to all the changes. I hope you are adjusting too. I didn't realize your divorce was going to be so soon. I wish you much luck love and happiness in your new life. Samantha
