There will be many changes happening at the Gale household in the next few weeks. I have changed out the picture at the top because of these changes. Decisions had to be made and they were very hard but we have made them.
Many things have gone on in mine and Josh's relationship and it has brought us to the point where we have been fighting all of the time. We have decided that it would be best if we were no longer togather. I have struggled with this for a long time mainly because of our kids, but it is also because of our kids that we have made this decision.
I love Josh with all my heart but things have just come to a point where it is too much. Bi-polar is a hard thing to live with both for him and for others in the relationship. It is a real illness and should never be overlooked. But it is not an excuse for certain actions. I am definately not an easy person to live with either and I do play a part in the equation. I don't want to air dirty laundry and I don't want to say anything that will diminish the way the kids look toward their father. So I ask that we take the advice of Thumper in the movie Bambi and that is "if we can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all" to heart when our kids are around.
If it takes me longer to post things you will know why but also in preparation for some venting that may come this way.

I think you will be blessed to have these changes in place. You are a good wife and mother and we are there to support you. Call whenever.
I am sure it is hard. You are a strong person and we know you are doing what is best for your family. We are far away, but if you need anything, let us know.
I know we haven't always seen eye to eye with things. I just wanted to tell you how proud I am of you. It is a very hard choice. One that I made in my life. Prayers are on their way.
Tammy,
I'm so sorry that things are so rough right now. You are such a good mom, and I am sure that it has broken your heart to have to make such a difficult decision. I'll be praying for you all!
With love,
Rebecca

Tammy (my Chickie T);
I'm sorry that life has dealt you this hand; you are an amazing woman and I know that your strength with help you through the difficult times ahead. There are so many Angels looking out for you, both in the Spritual and Physical form. I've been told and now truly do believe that the hardest choices in life are usually the best for our future. I don't want to sound "preachy" by any means, but you know that I am going through the same "situations" in my life, and without some of the amazing new friends I have made since I made my decision, I would not have made it even this far.
I am so happy to know that you and Josh are in agreement that this is in the childrens best interest. I am a child from a divorced family, and many parents don't realize the impact it has on their children, I admire you for always putting their needs first, as it should be.
I know that we haven't been the closest of friends, I do hope that our friendship can grow stronger with time, please know that I am here for you, anytime, day or night.
I Love You very much.
Bonnie

Tammy, Im sure this is so difficult but Im sure you are doing what you know in your heart is best for you and your children. I love ya and hope you know you have a lot of support as you go through it.
Tammy, I am so sorry to hear of your recent challenge. You have been a huge inspiration to me and I know you are a lot tougher than I could ever be. Your kids are lucky to have you and you will be blessed. Keep the Lord first and things will work out, I know they will...
Love, Jeni
