Welcome to FG dloucamp10! I'm sorry to hear that your marriage is a source of sadness for you. Maybe you'll tell us more later.

By the way, check out www.iespell.com That's what a lot of us use for spellchecking in a forum setting.

My name is Debbie and I have never belonged to a forum group before. So this is going to be a new and I hope fun experience for me. I guess I am suppose to tell a bit about myself...I have three grown children whom I am extremely close too and very happy about that. I have a wonderful relationship with each of my grown kids...My oldest daughter and her husband have two children, both girls, Makayla and Makenna ages 7 and 5. They are such a joy for me. They live really close and I am able to see them a lot! I am a Property Manager and have a wonderful property to care for. The best thing about my living situation is I have my mother living here (in her own apartment). My son, his wife and their new baby girl, Jade, live here, (also in their own apartment). And my second daughter just moved into her own apartment a few months ago. She is expecting in March and we are having a boy!

I say we...with great joy...she is going to be a single mom and with my hours and help I have here, it will permit me to be able to help care for "Aiden" when mommy returns to work. I'm pretty excited about that.

Well...don't want to overwhelm with too much information. I am very happy with most parts of my life, but am struggling with a few personal things and don't have much opportunity to seek fellowship and am hoping that this will be a good choice. I am married and that is the source of my sadness at the moment. I am really trying to figure some things out (and I know I am being vague) but I have faith in my ability to seek and recognize healthy help.

I am also reading about Buddhism and zen meditation. Meditation has been a part of my life for some time, but I am new to studying Buddhism. I am really looking forward to my journey and I hope to make some friends to help me on my way. Thank you very much for listening.

Debbie from Oregon

P.S. My biggest fear with this is No Spell Check! :wah:Hi debbie, This is fun, and Buddhism is a life changing philosophy. Youll be OK
