Default Back in Montana

My wife of 27+ years asked me to leave last Tuesday. I decided to get to Montana as fast as I could. I'm temporarily at my sisters place in Couer d' Alene Idaho (in the panhandle) until I locate work and housing in Missoula.
So I'm back up on line. Missed you guys. It's going to be ok. The kids are grown. No estate to split up, left her the car and household goods. just mounds of bills to divide up. I'm back in God's country. I'll be a happy man.

Been there, done that. Sometimes it's a good idea.

Good luck it the next part of your life.

Montana -
Dang man... sure have been there and done that my own self, more than my share (apparently I failed to get the message on the first three tries )... so anyway, good man power strength and calm peace on your path, the new days await and are here already, new habits to create, new muscles to flex, new freedoms to enjoy, new ways of being to try... wise melancholy passing by, in eyes and hearts of all touched by the event.

I've spent A LOT of time in Montana, a lot... beautiful, wonderful, BIG, open, lean place to restore one's soul, I'd say. Cannot hardly imagine a better refuge to have gone to.

Salute!

MontanaKid,

I've been there, too, and it took me awhile to get over it. I even had to see a therpist, which turned out to be a good thing since I discovered why I was attracted to such women. Since then, I've made it a point to think with the brain in my head instead of the other one. Today, I'm approaching my 17th anniversary (in May) and I'm married to the best woman in the world (sorry guys, she's taken!).

Thumbs up Doc Alan

I'm glad you found your way back over here. Like I said over on the WAR board, just PM me when you get settled and I'll make an effort to hook up with you the next time we're up in the Inland Empire. All of our thoughts and good wishes are with you, Doc.

Hang loose, Bud. You are among friends.
