    Back in the saddle again...

    Hi gang! I wanted share some very good news. I posted back in December that my wife was going to divorce me and I had a shop sell off for some of my woodworking stuff. My wife had a change of heart and the family is recommitted and the shop is back in business. We are doing some counseling and things are looking very optimistic.

    Thanks to everyone for their continued support! I thought you should know.

          I was hoping to hear news like that when I read the thread title Scotty. I wish for you and your wife the best in life.

                      That's super news Scott! I remember when that went down....I'm soooo glad to hear that you've reconciled. Guess I'm just a sap about happy endings... All the best to you both!
                      Happiness is sort of like wetting your pants....everyone can see it, but only you can feel the warmth.

                                  That's great news Scott! I was in the same boat about 6 years ago. My wife moved out and was gone for about nine months or so. Divorce papers were filed and less than a week before they became final, we figured out how to work things out. It wasn't easy at first, but we both learned a lot and made some changes in the way we think, act, and treat each other. We are a much happier couple now and our marriage is solid. It's a lot of work, but I'm sure you can do it! Good luck.

                                      That is great news Scott! I don't have nearly as much experience as Bill yet, but I can also tell you that you have to work at it.

                                                      Great to hear the news, I would not wish divorce on my worst enemy. Especially with kids involved.
