OT.May I be happy???
This has nothing to do with anything, but I am so happy!! My stepson was
married in 1991 to a young lady here in Miami , FL. It was a catholic wedding, and I NEVER EVER felt any sense of fun between them. DH has always said that Mel ( the bride) said "jump" and Jimmy said " how high?". In fact, she told me she had planned her wedding since ahe was fifteen. the only missing factor was the groom!! They were true to each other, and made many dollars, and had the house to prove it. This is old, but Melanie ( the bride) had an affair a couple of years back, and Jim found out about it. The divorce has long since been final, but today he visited with the "new" girlfriend, and she is totaly delightful. Then they broke the news to dad and me (step-mom) that they were engaged, I am just so happy, because this lady is the perfect woman for a Murray male. They each have two children, don't want anymore (yeah!! no more baby samplers), and they are truly happy. She even does craft stuff, but wants to learn cross-stitch!!!! It is so good to see happy people. Jim is almost 39, and Rox is 36. Their "joint" kids are 6,8,7,and 3.!!! So, add two more grandkids for us!! Gilllian |

It was a catholic wedding, and I NEVER EVER felt any sense of fun between them. I'm glad you are happy, and really glad for your stepson that he has found happiness, but what does having a Catholic wedding have to do with not having any fun? I'm all for "used husbands" by the way. I'm a wife #3 and will always be grateful to the two women who let him go. :-))))) I wasn't ready for him yet anyway and I'm sure he is a better man for having loved and lost and then found love again. The first two lasted for less than two years each & ours is going on 22 years - Catholic wedding or not - and we laugh frequently. :-))) Liz from Humbug |

Liz,
It really wasn't meant in a disparaging sort of way. I was thinking of all the classes and so forth that they had to attend, which stressed the permanence and sanctity of marriage. Even with that, it just didn't work, and the kids never seemed light-hearted; it always seemed that they were trying too hard to be the perfect spouses. To hear Jimmy let out a big belly-laugh yesterday was just SO great!! "Ready-trained" hubbies are great; mine is the second time around; he was divorced and I was a widow. His ex and I get along just fine, when we meet at the family events. We have been together for over twenty years, although only married for 8. Gillian "Liz Hampton" wrote in message ...

Absolutely you can be happy - should be happy. Someone you love has found
joy in life - good for all of you. I am happy for your entire family, and great - 2 more grandchildren. Sounds wonderful. My entire family, seriously, all share one thing in common - wishing that my DB had either broken his engagement, or gotten un-married long ago. The only good thing we all see is his 4 children. The SIL is a horror, has always been a phony who dreamed of nothing but being married and living like a Barbie Doll or princess, and as the years have gone by - well, her shallowness, superficiality, and just plain mean have continued to grow, the veneer of politeness is ever thinner. At least in the last few years my DB has finally started shutting her demands down, or finding a way around them. So sad that they continue even after 20 years. Best to you and yours - what a happy new year start! Ellice On 12/30/03 9:16 PM,"Gillian Murray" posted: This has nothing to do with anything, but I am so happy!!
