Bye bye bluesman.  All the best in your new hobby.  Let us know what it is and maybe we'll join you there!!

A dance, a woman and a pie is probably not a long term solution to such (what sounds like) deeply imbedded hurt and anger. Might I suggest some counselling? I do think that you are quite correct in stating that you are "hiding out here" and a forum, where "some" do nothing but seek sympathy and attention, can be a rather depressing place to be, unless you have the ability to ignore it, as some of us can and do! (You say you also have a blog! More hours on the computer!) I have mentioned a few times, in various places on this forum...positive people, a new interest (not a person, a hobby), volunteer work, daily exercise! I challenge you to try those things for 6 weeks and see the difference! Good luck!

Loves..... Hope to see you around... stiop by and let me know if you find a good new hobby.. I know I need one

Best of luck bill in whatever you may do, may the sun shine on you always, perhaps after a well needed retreat you can stop by and say hello..

Bill, I totally understand how you feel. As we get older , we have to run faster to catch up with life. I wish you the best of luck in everything you do. Take care.

Stop buy to see us and comment when you can, never say never.....

You mean you are not addicted anymore?    Yea,  You will be back......right?????

Well done Bill, you deserve the rest,get out in the air, freshen those thoughts, get back into those jeans and live life to the full, Bluesman will be missed....KOTF salutes you mate!

That easily?  I still don't get it.  I've liked you. Why the hurt feelings?

I will really miss your perspective and wisdom, Bill.  I've read all your comments to the friends who have answered before me, and I totally understand what you are saying.  My time here is extensive as well; I want so much for myself; instead of striving towards something, I bury myself here for hours.  
Getting your health in better shape will do alot towards "healing" the bad vibes you have for your ex.  I support your decision to "get off the pot" and take care of having  a LIFE.  I've always worried about the anger you have expressed here and it's good to see that you want to get past it and get your life back on a positive foot.  
My cousin and I were talking recently and she said something that may get you thinking, too.  "You live in the past," she said, "thinking about what should have been but wasn't.  You aren't going to be able to move forward until you stop looking back."
I'm taking those words to heart....not sure how to look forward, (when I try, I don't see anything different) but so very tired of looking back; so very, very tired of wasting my life with the what if, should have, and why me .   
Take good care, Bill, look forward, and let me know what you start to see.  Don't be a stranger.  Love, Phyllis 

Good to hear your positive attitude Bill,i hope 2012 is a better year for you.Drop in to say hello if you can,bye for now.

Bye Bill.good luck with the leather craft.

I can understand the need for a little adventure. Matter of fact, I think it's a healthy thing to get out there and feel life...in moderation of course. The older we get the more aches and pains we have to contend with. Well, good luck! I'll miss you!

you'll be back.....I think i might understand where you're coming from.....i also spend a lot of time here when i could be doing other things, maybe more productive things.......

Dude, I will truly miss you. Peek in from time to time. Be cool.

Bill sorry to hear you are leaving as you say start with the new year and I know its tough out there try and ahve a go on the EBAY a freind of mine was stiney broke and started selling stuff on ebay she is quite well off now  she  is a artist and done well  try all shops you never know you might get a break good luck for the future

Go and get yourself better, have fun.

bluesman1951,  if you are still  reading,   Hope you do get your health in better shape.   I am almost as old as you.    A few years ago I started to get back  in to shape. I can do 100 pushups a day and other things.  I have felt great from it.   Get with your Doctor to see what you can start with and make reasonable goals to meet.    I would like to hear back with  your results.............GOOD LUCK  !!!

Bluesman: "Oh, please don't go. We'll eat you up we love you so." A line from Where The Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak.

I had to leave for awhile but I came back but cut back the time. I hope that's what you can do to. 

Be well, Bill

Good luck bluesman1951.  I do hope that things turn out well for you.  Fair winds and following seas.   regards/yvonne57

Dear Bill, your comments are so kind.  Don't be so hard on yourself.  Take it a day at a time.  yvonne
