Sorry I was haven't been online

Sorry for not being on here for awhile alot of stuff was going on for the past 2 months between my oldest daughter and then me getting burned with 1st and 2nd degree burns I smelled gas down in our basement and I did not see the piolet lite on the furance and I turned the gas off and waited a while then tried to relight the piolet and well I got hit with backdraft was caused that was there was a hiccup in the line so the gas fumes built up and when I relite it, it backflashed on me so I was out of work for 10 days went to see the plastic surgeon 4 days after it happen and he was totally amazed how well I was healing so right now all I have is alittle red marks on my neck and right arm and alittle on my face. And from all this I told Mike I do not feel safe in thi house anymore so we just moved in to an apartment this week and got internet back up yeah I wa lot with out it for 2 months lol. Mike is doing fine by the way too jut to let everyone know how he are doing.

Glad you and daughter are ok, it could have been nasty. Time for a good furnace check-up and cleaning. Gas can create soot and cause problems.

I see my wife brought everybody up to date. It was a damn same what had happened to her. My stress level got so high I had to get away as I was getting violent. So I went and spent the past 2 monthes in the woods. I seen Melissa almost everyday. If you ever read "Walden Pond" by George Henry Therough (not sure if it spelled last name right), I was kind of like that.

Oh trust me I''ve learned my lesson,to bad I had to learn it the hard way lol. Things have been going all wrong for me since then though I hope things turn for the better soon. First it was the problem with my daughter then me getting burned then we moved then after all this my boss has been acting like a jerk this past Sunday I took off work so we can finish moving he tells me that he needed a excuse for me not coming in and if I don't have one don't bother coming in all week so this week I have put my name in all over and then the pat few nights my ulcurse or something has been bothering me can't go to dr's am with out insurance at the moment. So needless to say me and Mike have been going crazy with our lives lately Like I said I hope things turn around for us soon. And thank you for those that have posted Me and Mike have enjoyed the thoughts lol Sorry for misspelled words on here tonight ok.

Melissa - all I can say is it has to get better. It seems that you are able to laugh at your troubles so that is helpful. Good luck to you and your family.

yeah I can laugh at the problems but at times I just feel like I want to just sit down and cry that's how bad it is at times though. I don't know if I should cry or laugh anymore though.

Hang in there Melissa. I know it is tough and it seems like both you and Mike have been having a bad streak of luck at the moment. Things have to get better for you.

It sounds like Mikes pc is in the hybernate mode. Do a full power down for a minute or so, then plug it back in. Hopefuly that is all that is wrong.

Both of you, stay strong. It will get better.
